This commit prepares the frontend code to be consumed by webpack.
It is a hack: In theory, modules should be declaring and importing the
modules they depend on and the globals they expose directly.
However, that requires significant per-module work, which we don't
really want to block moving our toolchain to webpack on.
So we expose the modules by setting window.varName = varName; as
needed in the js files.
This is preparation for enabling an eslint indentation configuration.
90% of these changes are just fixes for indentation errors that have
snuck into the codebase over the years; the others are more
significant reformatting to make eslint happy (that are not otherwise
actually improvements).
The one area that we do not attempt to work on here is the
"switch/case" indentation.
Instead of treating false differently from undefined, our
function is now a regular boolean function, and we limit our
code comments to the one corner case where the true/false
decision is kind of arbitrary and possibly confusing.
The buddy list never includes yourself nor bots, so we
remove the special case handling for those situations.
If we were to put bots or the current user back in the list,
I'm not convinced the old logic was what we'd want in either
case going forward.
For example, we might want to fade bots that aren't subscribed
to public streams, since they might otherwise confuse people,
but then again they would receive messages. And then "yourself"
is a recipient in the technical sense but they're kinda
not and either way it doesn't provide much signal either way.
When we populate the buddy list or update it for activity, we now
have buddy_data set a faded flag that is rendered in the template.
This avoids some re-rendering overhead and is on the eventual path
to having our widget be more data-oriented (and all rendering happens
"behind" the widget).
We still do direct DOM updates when the compose state changes or
when we get peer subscription events.
Also adds a custom rule to eslint. Since the recommended way of extending
eslint is to create plugins as standalone npm packages, the separate rule
is published as 'eslint-plugins-empty-returns'.
Fixes#8669.
We now correctly pass the list item for a user to the function
compose_fade.update_one_row().
This regression started happening in the recent commit of
eece725073. Before that commit,
compose-fade was broken in a different way.
Testing this fix requires creating a stream and opening the compose
box in one window. Then, in the other window, have a user not
subscribed to the stream log on for the first time. Be careful
to make sure you flip back to the other browser tab quickly, and
you should see the new user grayed out. (You can get a false
positive if you wait too long, because the periodic update was
correctly fading before this fix.)
Our JS/CSS now only uses the user-fade class for elements
that have the user-sidebar-entry class. This should prevent
bugs related to having doubly opaque elements.
We now have specific HTML/CSS classes for message fading and
user fading. They currently both have the same effect, changing
opacity, but we can now more easily treat them differently.
This change also removes "faded" attributes in compose-fade,
which avoids some confusion related to landing pages having
a "faded" class as well.
This fixes the mobile web experience for Chrome on iOS.
Apparently, Chrome-on-iOS silently has a `viewport` module that
overrides and user-defined module by that name, causing all of our
code that accesses the viewport module to not work on that platform.
We fix this by renaming it.
Using stream_id in recipient comparisons fixes a
bug in this scenario: go to home view, send message
to stream, wait for admin to rename stream, send
another message to the stream. Before this change,
the stream name would live-update but you'd get a
spurious recipient bar due to the prior message still
having the old stream name in places internally.
There were other ways to fix the live-update glitch,
but it's just generally cleaner to do stream id
comparisons.
Part of this change is to add stream_id to
compose_fade.set_focused_recipient().
Previously, we were checking if a particular user was the current user
in dozens of places in the codebase, and correct case-insensitive
checks were not used consistently, leading to bugs like #502.
update_rendered_message_groups needs to use the message not the
message_container when testing to see if the fade states need to be
updated.

Now that we are not directly using message in the message list view
rename the uses of message that are message_containers.

Now that we no longer use tables for our message list, we can
more logically group messages together.
