Reviewers

When getting the groups list via the API, only super users can get the group list including invite-only groups.

This change adds a new permission under groups that can be granted to any user that includes all invite-only groups (except hidden groups) into the groups list requested by the user. This, however, does not allow the user to access all invite-only groups; only that they show up on the groups list page and related API requests.

Added a unit test, which passes (along with all other tests). The test checks that an invite-only group that a user is not a part of becomes viewable to the user once they are given the new permission. The test also checks that the permission does not give the user default access to invite-only hidden groups.

How about "Testing view_invite_only_groups permission allows viewing invite-only groups?"

Combine these into one statement.

We don't modify the user's permissions past this point, so I don't believe this is necessary.

I would prefer new_group_count. I find (adjective) (noun) more readable than (noun), (adjective).

Can you insert this so that it's still in alphabetical order?

Remove this blank line.

We should wrap the description in _() so it gets marked for translation.

This syntax isn't quite right--instead of defining a 2-tuple, you're passing two arguments into ugettext_lazy. I'm surprised this isn't crashing …

  1. Some minor nitpicks and style suggestions. Otherwise, this looks great!

  8. Having read the Slack conversation, I know why we're doing this. However, in the future, someone reading this code might not know about the permissions cache, so we should add a comment explaining why this is here.

    This syntax isn't quite right--instead of defining a 2-tuple, you're passing two arguments into ugettext_lazy. I'm surprised this isn't crashing (did you test it?)

    This should probably look like:

    permissions = (
        ('can_view_invite_only_groups', _('Can view invite-only groups')),
    )
    
    1. yeah it definately crashes. I forgot to run my test after adding the underscore. I'll fix it.

  1. Ship It!
    1. Should I press the ship it tab/button? Or will one of the mentors handle it?

    2. At this point, unless there's additional review feedback or changes requested, there's nothing you need to do here. You've got one Ship It - and I think if and when you get a second, we'll land your patch. 😄
