Bug #7613
closedVarious fields insist on interpreting whitespace
0%
Description
At least user and group management search forms keep whitespace when searching. As both username and group name must not contain whitespace, this is unnecessary and annoying on typos.
May make sense to review other forms.

While resolving this, I noticed that there are pretty weak constraints for users' full names. For example, names can (and do) contain two consecutive spaces, which makes searching harder. Should a constraint for this be added in this issue, should a new issue be created or should this be completely disregarded? (in case this should be dealt with, is a migration for changing existing names for users a good solution?)

A similar thing goes for the group name, it is nowhere enforced that the group name cannot contain a space.

If group name contains multiple spaces, only one space is displayed in GUI. I don't know if that's a feature or a bug, I am just letting you know.

When imported abuse group has multiple email addresses, the resulting name of the group is the concatenation of all addresses using ',' as a separator. Example of such group can be found here - https://mentat-alt.cesnet.cz/mentat/groups/188/show. But the migration would render them invalid.

Twas probably me on the meeting to suggest normalising group names similar to usernames. Ok, so how about underscore as a separator?

I think underscore is OK. So, Jakub Maloštik can you change the separator in netmngr.py script?

netmngr.pyscript?
Since Nentat seems to allow for the + symbol in email addresses it is also replaced with '_'. Done.

Sorry, I didn't notice c7d0bd2c, as it wasn't linked to this issue.

On the devel branch, I built the machine from scratch and then imported the data from negistry whois file (located at /var/mentat/whois-negistry.json on mentat-hub/alt) using mentat-netmngr --command update --whois-file whois-negistry.json --source negistry. After that, I merged your branch and ran hawat-cli db upgrade. I checked the web interface at mentat/groups/list and I got 500 error.

I accidentally found some case when the migration doesn't work.
mentat_main=# update groups set name = '?abuse@zcu.cz' where name ~ 'zcu';
UPDATE 1
mentat_main=# update groups set name = '?abuse@zcu.cz' where name ~ 'ssa';
ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "ix_groups_name"
DETAIL: Key (name)=(?abuse@zcu.cz) already exists.
mentat_main=# update groups set name = '!abuse@zcu.cz' where name ~ 'ssa';
UPDATE 1
mentat_main=# select name from groups where name ~ 'zcu';
name
---------------
?abuse@zcu.cz
!abuse@zcu.cz
(2 rows)
And after running the migration:
mentat_main=# select name from groups where name ~ 'zcu';
name
----------------------------
?abuse@zcu.cz
INVALID_NAME__abuse@zcu_cz
(2 rows)
It seems like the issue is in '?' character. When I ran the migration with these groups:
mentat_main=# select name from groups where name ~ '\?.*';
name
--------------------------------
?abuse@zcu.cz
?abuse@rokycany.nemocnicepk.cz
?abuse@muni.cz
?vtp-abuse@fi.muni.cz
nothing happened. After prepending '!':
mentat_main=# update groups set name = '!' || name where name ~ '\?.*';
UPDATE 4
mentat_main=# select name from groups where name ~ '\!.*';
name
---------------------------------
!?abuse@zcu.cz
!?abuse@muni.cz
!?abuse@rokycany.nemocnicepk.cz
!?vtp-abuse@fi.muni.cz
(4 rows)
and running migration again, it worked:
mentat_main=# select name from groups where name ~ 'INVALID';
name
----------------------------------------------
INVALID_NAME___abuse@muni_cz
