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 removes the excessively verbose lists of files
to be tested, and flushes the output after every print
to update the user on the current status in real time.
This parameter was intended to control whether we give a long timeout
and related behavior, but it was accidentally not being passed into
the second layer of the library from the first.
While we're fixing it, make it actually limit the length of a timeout
to something reasonable.
The only problem with this resulting code is that setup_path_on_import
only works if the Python versions are the same, so you need to run
this with Python 3 in that case.
We try to resolve that for use on Zulip servers with
zulip/zulip:47c5aae5b242fb6d2f5e860602e0fc0af68419bb; since that's the
main case where the code path runs, that should be good enough.
These were quite messy code, and now that almost nobody is running
their own zephyr mirroring script (vs. using webathena), making the
zephyr mirroring script deployable outside the package isn't super
valuable.
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.
These functions were rendered redundant by changes in our
approach on how the main repo renders docs and logos contained
in the zulip_bots package (see #6103). So, these should now be
removed.
