This extends the /user_uploads API endpoint to support passing the
authentication credentials via the URL, not the HTTP_AUTHORIZATION
headers. This is an important workaround for the fact that React
Native's Webview system doesn't support setting HTTP_AUTHORIZATION;
the app will be responsible for rewriting URLs for uploaded files
directly to add this parameter.
We start to force downloads for the attachment files. We do this
for all files except images or pdf's. We would like images or pdf's
to open up in browser itself.
Tweaked by tabbott for comment clarity and correctness.
From here on we start to authenticate uploaded file request before
serving this files in production. This involves allowing NGINX to
pass on these file requests to Django for authentication and then
serve these files by making use on internal redirect requests having
x-accel-redirect field. The redirection on requests and loading
of x-accel-redirect param is handled by django-sendfile.
NOTE: This commit starts to authenticate these requests for Zulip
servers running platforms either Ubuntu Xenial (16.04) or above.
Fixes: #320 and #291 partially.
We'll replace this primarily with per-realm quotas (plus the simple
per-file limit of settings.MAX_FILE_UPLOAD_SIZE, 25 MiB by default).
We do want per-user quotas too, but they'll need some more management
apparatus around them so an admin has a practical way to set them
differently for different users. And the error handling in this
existing code is rather confused. Just clear this feature out
entirely for now; then we'll build the per-realm version more cleanly,
and then we can later add back per-realm quotas modelled after that.
The migration to actually remove the field is in a subsequent commit.
Based in part on work by Vishnu Ks (hackerkid).
This function is designed to replace avatar_url() and
avatar_url_from_dict() over time.
There are a few things new about it:
* We make the parameters more explicit, rather than
passing in an opaque dictionary or requiring a
UserProfile object. (A lot of our callers want
to use `values()` for efficiency sake, since we
are often doing bulk user operations.)
* We start to support the client_gravatar option.
This change is mostly based on a similar commit from hackerkid
in a feature branch. It borrows both code and ideas. Some of
it's my own stuff, as I was working on a newer branch.
We now call get_user_including_cross_realm_email() inside of
user_profiles_from_unvalidated_emails(), instead of using
get_user_profile_by_email.
This requires a few of our callers to pass down sender into us.
One consequence of this change is that we change the symptoms
for trying to send to emails outside of your realm. In some
cases, we simply raise an error that an email is invalid to us
instead of getting into the deeper validate_recipient_user_profiles
check.
