The database value for expiry_date is None for the invite
that will never expire and the clients send -1 as value
in the API similar to the message retention setting.
Also, when passing invite_expire_in_days as an argument
in various functions, invite_expire_in_days is passed as
-1 for "Never expires" option since invite_expire_in_days
is an optional argument in some functions and thus we cannot
pass "None" value.
It is confusing to have the plan type constants not be namespaced
by the thing they represent. We already have a namespacing
convention in place for constants, so we should use it for
Realm.plan_type as well.
This extends the invite api endpoints to handle an extra
argument, expiration duration, which states the number of
days before the invitation link expires.
For prereg users, expiration info is attached to event
object to pass it to invite queue processor in order to
create and send confirmation link.
In case of multiuse invites, confirmation links are
created directly inside do_create_multiuse_invite_link(),
For filtering valid user invites, expiration info stored in
Confirmation object is used, which is accessed by a prereg
user using reverse generic relations.
Fixes#16359.
Moving forward we are hoping to collect data on org types from our
users, so it makes sense to display the org type on the "Counts"
tab of our /activity page.
JsonableError has two major benefits over json_error:
* It can be raised from anywhere in the codebase, rather than
being a return value, which is much more convenient for refactoring,
as one doesn't potentially need to change error handling style when
extracting a bit of view code to a function.
* It is guaranteed to contain the `code` property, which is helpful
for API consistency.
Various stragglers are not updated because JsonableError requires
subclassing in order to specify custom data or HTTP status codes.
