Instead of using a hardcoded value for spritesheet dimensions,
automatically calculate it using `emoji_data`. This will free
us from updating it only emoji datasource update as well as
allow us to add google blob emojiset.
This will help us in reducing the size of the release tarball
significantly. I have refrained from changing the `EMOJISETS`
constant in the `emoji_setup_utils.py` as that controls the
emojisets that we want to support. Since we want to re-enable
the feature of changing emojisets sometime again in the future
that variable should be kept as it is as it controls several
other things like emoji scripts that we use to generate emoji
names. Changing it might cause hard to catch bugs.
`emoji-datasource` package v4.0.4 introduced the concept of qualified
and non-qualified emoji codes. As chat programs don't need to use
emoji representation selector, so we used migrated our infrastructure
to use non-qualified emoji codes. But we missed the fact that the
emoji file names in emoji farm are based on emoji data's 'unified'
field and the value of this field has changed. Consequently the image
file names must also have been changed. We used `emoji_code` while
converting the span tags to img tags while processing notifications.
But since now `emoji_code` refers to non-qualified code while image
file names are based on qualified code, we need to rename images
to correctly do the conversion. This commit just fixes this.
This commit closes a long pending issue which involved moving the
`EMOTICON_CONVERSION` mapping to build_emoji infrastructure so
that there is only one source of truth. This was pending from the
time when this feature was implemented.
This commit updates the `emoji-datasource` packages to version 4.0.4.
This update brings following changes to emoji infra:
1: Fix for the bleeding sprite sheets.
2: The category of some emojis has been changed. Categorywise breakup of
net gain or loss is as follows:
Travel & Places: 58 (gain)
Symbols: 47 (loss)
Smileys & People: 52 (gain)
Objects: 11 (loss)
Food & Drink: 3 (gain)
Animals and Nature: 46 (gain)
Activities: 9 (loss)
3: There were some changes in the image farm of the package which were
breaking our old emoji farm. I fixed them by modifying the remapped
emoji map.
Fixes: #8235.
Google emojiset's octopus is really cute and whole Zulip community
loves it. So using a CSS hack, we hardcode octopus emoji to use image
from Google's emojiset only irrespective of the choosen emojiset.
This migrates Zulip to use a dramatically better set of names and
aliases for our emoji set, defined in emoji_names.py (which is in turn
manually generated from our hand-curated CSV file).
This should significantly improve the experience of using Zulip's
emoji picker and emoji typeahead for finding what one is looking for.
This commit switches our emoji infrastructure to use 256 color indexed
64px spritesheets. Earlier we were using non-indexed 32px spritesheets
which were blurry on high dpi displays. These indexed spritesheets not
only provide a crispier display but are also smaller in size.
This commit also removes the `emoji-datasource` package as a dependency
as all the data is now sourced from individual datasource packages.
Fixes: #7862.
This commit helps reduce clutter on the navigation sidebar.
Creates new directories and moves relevant files into them.
Modifies index.rst, symlinks, and image paths accordingly.
This commit also enables expandable/collapsible navigation items,
renames files in docs/development and docs/production,
modifies /tools/test-documentation so that it overrides a theme setting,
Also updates links to other docs, file paths in the codebase that point
to developer documents, and files that should be excluded from lint tests.
Note that this commit does not update direct links to
zulip.readthedocs.io in the codebase; those will be resolved in an
upcoming follow-up commit (it'll be easier to verify all the links
once this is merged and ReadTheDocs is updated).
Fixes#5265.
Emojis which are represented by a sequence of codepoints or emojis
with ZWJ are not included until we implement a mechanism for dealing
with their unicode versions.
Fixes: #6279.
This hack was used to fix the broken number emojis in the emoji picker.
It was broken because of the partial migration to the iamcal dataset.
See issue #4775 for more details.
This hack was used to fix the broken flag emojis in emoji-picker.
It was broken due to the incomplete migration to iamcal dataset.
See issue #4775 for more details.
This commit switches to use sprite sheets for rendering emojis
in all the remaining places, i.e., message bodies and composebox
typeahead. This commit also includes some changes to notifications.py
file so that the spans used for rendering emojis can be converted
to corresponding image tags so that we don't break the emoji rendering
in missed message emails since we can't use sprite sheets there.
As part of switching the bugdown system to use sprite sheets, we need
to switch the name_to_codepoint mappings to match the new sprite
sheets. This has the side effect of fixing a bunch of emoji like
numbers and flag emoji in the emoji pickers.
Fixes: #3895.
Fixes: #3972.
This function was used get a black and white glyph for an emoji if there
was no corresponding image file present in the `NotoColorEmoji.ttf` but
due to the new emoji farm setup code, we no longer need this.
This function was used to color transparent number emojis. We no
longer need to do this since now we have remapped number emojis
to the corresponding colored emojis in the new emoji farm.
We have symlinked the old emoji farm to the old emoji farm and hence
we don't use the images from the `NotoColorEmoji.ttf` file. This
function was used to generate a map from codepoint to filename by
parsing the ttx file passed to it. We no longer need this map.
This commit extracts out the `generate_map_files()` function from
the `dump_emojis()` function. This function generates various data
files like `emoji_codes.js`, `name_to_codepoint.json` etc which are
used by webapp, bugdown etc.
This commit removes the old emoji farm generation code in favor of
`setup_old_emoji_farm()`. Instead of having individual images in old
emoji farm we now symlink them to the images in the new emoji farm.
This commit adds `setup_old_emoji_farm()` function to the build_emoji
script. This will change the way of setting up the old emoji farm.
Earlier we used to extract the glyphs corresponding to each emoji from
the `NotoColorEmoji.ttf` file. But since now we already have individual
images in the new emoji farm(from iamcal's 'emoji-datasource-google' npm
package) we can just symlink old emoji files to the new image files. This
apart from helping us in cleaning up the `build_emoji` script will also
help in reducing the increased size of the release tarball due to the
addition of new emoji farm.
This enforces our use of a consistent style in how we access Python
modules; "from os.path import dirname" is a particularly popular
abbreviation inconsistent with our style, and so it deserves a lint
rule.
Commit message and error text tweaked by tabbott.
Fixes#6543.
