db: introduce migration step after 93834966ae01 dropped non-nullable inherit_default_permissions
The database migration step was lazily and naively skipped ... but that turns
out to be a problem when new users are added.
In the database, the original column 'inherit_default_permissions' was
marked as non-nullable without default value. In the Kallithea code after
commit 93834966ae01, the column 'inherit_default_permissions' was no longer
known, and thus not given a value when new users are added. As a result, the
database complained:
IntegrityError: (psycopg2.errors.NotNullViolation) null value in column "inherit_default_permissions" violates not-null constraint
Fix that now by adding an appropriate db migration step to actually remove
the columns.
Use meta reflection to check if columns exist before running the upgrade
step. The upgrade step only has to be run if it is an old database - not if
it has been created after the schema changes were introduced.
For the downgrade step, make sure to set a default value for non-nullable
columns.

.. _email: ============== Email settings ============== The Kallithea configuration file has several email related settings. When these contain correct values, Kallithea will send email in the situations described below. If the email configuration is not correct so that emails cannot be sent, all mails will show up in the log output. Before any email can be sent, an SMTP server has to be configured using the configuration file setting ``smtp_server``. If required for that server, specify a username (``smtp_username``) and password (``smtp_password``), a non-standard port (``smtp_port``), whether to use "SSL" when connecting (``smtp_use_ssl``) or use STARTTLS (``smtp_use_tls``), and/or specify special ESMTP "auth" features (``smtp_auth``). For example, for sending through gmail, use:: smtp_server = smtp.gmail.com smtp_username = username smtp_password = password smtp_port = 465 smtp_use_ssl = true Application emails ------------------ Kallithea sends an email to `users` on several occasions: - when comments are given on one of their changesets - when comments are given on changesets they are reviewer on or on which they commented regardless - when they are invited as reviewer in pull requests - when they request a password reset Kallithea sends an email to all `administrators` upon new account registration. Administrators are users with the ``Admin`` flag set on the *Admin > Users* page. When Kallithea wants to send an email but due to an error cannot correctly determine the intended recipients, the administrators and the addresses specified in ``email_to`` in the configuration file are used as fallback. Recipients will see these emails originating from the sender specified in the ``app_email_from`` setting in the configuration file. This setting can either contain only an email address, like `kallithea-noreply@example.com`, or both a name and an address in the following format: `Kallithea <kallithea-noreply@example.com>`. However, if the email is sent due to an action of a particular user, for example when a comment is given or a pull request created, the name of that user will be combined with the email address specified in ``app_email_from`` to form the sender (and any name part in that configuration setting disregarded). The subject of these emails can optionally be prefixed with the value of ``email_prefix`` in the configuration file. A Kallithea-specific header indicating the email type will be added to each email. This header can be used for email filtering. The header is of the form: X-Kallithea-Notification-Type: <type> where ``<type>`` is one of: - ``pull_request``: you are invited as reviewer in a pull request - ``pull_request_comment``: a comment was given on a pull request - ``cs_comment``: a comment was given on a changeset - ``registration``: a new user was registered - ``message``: another type of email Error emails ------------ When an exception occurs in Kallithea -- and unless interactive debugging is enabled using ``set debug = true`` in the ``[app:main]`` section of the configuration file -- an email with exception details is sent by backlash_ to the addresses specified in ``email_to`` in the configuration file. Recipients will see these emails originating from the sender specified in the ``error_email_from`` setting in the configuration file. This setting can either contain only an email address, like `kallithea-noreply@example.com`, or both a name and an address in the following format: `Kallithea Errors <kallithea-noreply@example.com>`.
