* Documentation improvements to contributing guide (#15667) (#15668)Grant McLean2023-05-261-5/+28
| | | | | | | | | Fix #15667 - Reiterate the importance of getting Rust installed and set up before attempting to install the Python dependencies. - Mention the importance of confirming that `poetry install` completed successfully and include a typical error that the user might see if it did not. - Expand on "Now edit homeserver.yaml" to give examples of things likely to need changing and to link to the relevant sections of the Synapse server documentation.

* Docs: add missing PR submission process how-tos (#11821)Forest Johnson2022-01-251-1/+2
| | | | | | | * Docs: add missing PR submission process how-tos The documentation says that in order to submit a pull request you have to run the linter and links to [Run the linters](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/development/contributing_guide.html#run-the-linters). IMO "Run the linters" should explain that development dependencies are a pre-requisite. I also included `pip install wheel` which I had to run inside my virtual environment on ubuntu before I `pip install -e ".[all,dev]"` would succeed.

* Update postgresql testing script (#10906)David Robertson2021-09-241-0/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Use sytest:bionic. Sytest:latest is two years old (do we want CI to push out latest at all?) and comes with Python 3.5, which we explictly no longer support. The script now runs under PostgreSQL 10 as a result. - Advertise script in the docs - Move pg testing script to scripts-dev directory - Write to host as the script's exector, not root A few changes to make it speedier to re-run the tests: - Create blank DB in the container, not the script, so we don't have to `initdb` each time - Use a named volume to persist the tox environment, so we don't have to fetch and install a bunch of packages from PyPI each time Co-authored-by: reivilibre <olivier@librepush.net>

* Refactor oEmbed previews (#10814)Patrick Cloke2021-09-211-8/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The major change is moving the decision of whether to use oEmbed further up the call-stack. This reverts the _download_url method to being a "dumb" functionwhich takes a single URL and downloads it (as it was before #7920). This also makes more minor refactorings: * Renames internal variables for clarity. * Factors out shared code between the HTML and rich oEmbed previews. * Fixes tests to preview an oEmbed image.
* Use attrs internally for the URL preview code & add documentation. (#10753)Patrick Cloke2021-09-071-0/+51
