[ZEPPELIN-2680] allow opening notebook as a reader ### What is this PR for? We have a few notebooks that have a list of writers & owners, but no restricted readers list. When you try to open these notebooks as a reader AND they have a chart the app sends a COMMIT_PARAGRAPH for each, which causes a write permission popup to show ("Insufficient privileges to write note"). I tracked down the issue to the result.controller.js (commitParagraphResult) - propagating the "viewOnly" state fixes that behavior. ### What type of PR is it? Bug Fix ### How should this be tested? - Create a notebook. Add a paragraph with a graph. Set the "owner" of the notebook to something other than yourself. You won't be able to load the notebook without the security popup anymore (unless logging in as the owner) ### Questions: * Does the licenses files need update? No * Is there breaking changes for older versions? No * Does this needs documentation? No You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/herval/zeppelin dont-write-as-a-reader Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/pull/2439.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #2439 ---- commit 3b369fce0d0703fed61a2b7babe0ca3b85ffbc08 Author: Herval Freire <hfre...@twitter.com> Date: 2017-06-26T17:00:21Z [ZEPPELIN-2680] allow opening notebook as a reader ### What is this PR for?
