unittest includes by default all module-level classes that inherit
from TestCase and implement at least one method starting with 'test'.
Since it doesn't provide a convenient way for excluding TestSuites,
we need to manually filter out the unwanted testing of our test base
class itself.
No bot is dependant on this module. No
future bot should be dependant on it,
since it is not a bot itself and is thus
blurring the structure of the bots dir.
This simplifies testing stateful bots by integrating the StateHandler
into the test library. As a side-effect, the mock bot handler gets
reused during a test, making the tests more realistic. The
StateHandler now keeps its state during a call to check_expected_responses,
forcing some stateful tests to be more verbose and explicit.
The Zulip server, starting in 1.7, no longer sends
`is_mentioned` in the message payload, and it was buggy in
earlier versions, so now we check `flags`.
This commit adds a script to automate the PyPA release of the
zulip, zulip_bots and zulip_botserver packages.
The tools/release-packages script would take care of uploading
the packages to PyPA, and push commits to both repos updating the
package versions. If you have commit access to the repos, you
can --push upstream to master. If not, then you can --push
origin to a new branch on your fork and create a PR for those
changes.
Ideally, a release shouldn't take longer than however long it
takes one to type the above command. If you have SSH set up on
GitHub, you won't need to type in your GitHub username and
password. You can also store your PyPA credentials in a file
in your home directory; it isn't very secure, but it saves
time nevertheless.
In zulip_bots/setup.py, we now don't specify a minimum version when
checking for dependency on the zulip package. We just want the
latest one.
In zulip_botserver/setup.py, we now don't specify a minimum version
when checking for dependencies on the zulip and zulip_bots package.
We just want the latest ones.
We now have a custom command in zulip_bots/setup.py to generate
a MANIFEST.in. To generate a MANIFEST for a PyPA release, we
can now run:
python setup.py gen_manifest --release
To generate a non-release MANIFEST, we can run:
python setup.py gen_manifest
This allows us to automate the MANIFEST generation in our
release automation script.
The generate_manifest.py script now takes a --release argument
that generates a separate MANIFEST for a PyPA release that
include:
* doc.md files
* related assets/* files
A release MANIFEST doesn't include logos and fixtures.
A non-release MANIFEST includes everything.
This commit does the following:
* Minor improvements to the writing wherever possible.
* Replace links to screenshots with links that would work when
rendering said screenshots on the main repo. This would mean
the screenshots won't be rendered outside the main repo.
* Adds a section that links to our Bots Guide's How to run a bot
tutorial by using a Markdown a macro.
