This script in `zulip_ops` is handy for managing EC2 instances. It uses
`boto`, which isn't available in `trusty` for Python 3. The use of
`boto` here isn't particularly deep, so we could replace it with some
more manual HTTP calls if it comes to that. For now, just mark it to
stay on Python 2 while we move the app and all the rest of the ops code
(except this and another straggler or two) to Python 3.
Also make a comment on this package in the Puppet manifest clearer
about what it specifically refers to.
This consists of the `zulip_ops::stats` Puppet class, which has apparently
not been used since 2014, and a number of files that I believe were
only used for that. Also a couple of tiny loose ends in other files.
These are no longer useful, with our spiffy new analytics framework,
and we haven't in fact been using them for some time, while the
`active-user-stats` cron job does cause regular mail from cron.
Just delete them.
Also puts them into a processing queue, though the queue processor
does nothing.
Rewritten by tabbott to avoid unnecessary database queries in
do_send_messages.
- Add new 'missedmessage_email_senders' queue for sending missed messages emails.
- Add the new worker to process 'missedmessage_email_senders' queue.
- Split aggregation missed messages and sending missed messages email
to separate queue workers.
- Adapt tests for sending missed emails to the new logic.
Fixes#2607
Since browser clients send messages via websockets and not the API,
this is an important element in making sure mission-critical Zulip
functionality is working.
The old zulip_ops Nagios configuration depended on Nagios having the
ability to login as the zulip user (with essentially full write
access); this configuration is helpful for limiting nagios to special
"nagios" user with more limited credentials.
- Add websocket client to create connection with SockJS websocket server.
It contains callback method to launch after connection setup.
- Add '--websocket' parameter to 'check_send_receive_time' script to
check websocket connection.
- Add testing websocket connection to production installation checking.
- Add cronjob to launch websocket connection nagios test.
This makes it possible for Zulip Nagios monitoring to check for
problems impacting the websockets sending code path, which is what all
web users use.
