Previously user have to click pixel perfect on the message controls
icons to achieve the click action.
This commit will uniformly increases the click target
area for the icons.
Tweaked by tabbott to avoid some weird glitches.
Throughout the codebase we use <i> tag for icons.
This commit will add <i> tag inside the starred message
div and fa classes are now used with this <i> tag.
The starred message div is now consistent with other
message_controls divs.
Tweaked by tabbott to use the name star_container for better
readability.
Prior to commit eb4a2b9d4e the center
area of the navbar was based on a structure that appended crumbs or
"tabs" as <li>s, forming a tab_bar and a tab_list.
However, in eb4a2b9d4e we apply a new
style and structure to the navbar which lets go of the convention of
tabs. Hence, we'd like to purge the tab_bar and tab_list labels from
our code base.
It would have been nicer if we could simply purge tab_bar from the
codebase and rename "#tab_list" so that we have an anchor and wrapper
structure in the html, but dropping the float: left on tab_bar causes
some confusing problems such as causing the horizontal border to
disappear and the search_box to shift out of its intended position and
so its simpler to get rid of tab_list from our code base first.
This commit:
- Removes the #tab_list wrapper div from tab_bar.hbs.
- Removes any #tab_list selectors from night_mode.scss so that they
simply target based on "#tab_bar" instead of "#tab_bar #tab_list".
- Removes tab_list selectors from zulip.scss, so that #tab_list
attributes now apply to the #tab_bar, in the process we drop the
duplicated width property and reorder the attributes.
- Replaces all mention of #tab_list with #tab_bar in JS files.

The letter-spacing attribute was set to its default value and so we
remove it and rely on the default.

Currently the #tab_bar is just a container for the #tab_list and the
#tab_list handles the overflow attributes and so these do not serve
any purpose.

We have the same selector within #tab_list and the duplication is
unnecessary.
Ideally we would not be relying on something that requires a 4 line
comment, and also makes it harder to add more static elements at the
end of the navbar, but this block should be acceptable for now.
One alternate would be a "grow-1" class or similar but we might need
to think that through.
Previously, we had the entire div within the conditional, instead of
just the contents, which were the only variable elements.
This change moves the conditional over just the contents of the div
and improves readability.
Previously, the navbar sub count would not live update as users
subscribed or unsubscribed, this commit adds the relevant calls in
stream events.
It would have been better to just have a single call within
server_events_dispatch but it seems difficult due to the way of
mark_subscribed and mark_unsubscribed are structured.
stream_events.mark_unsubscribed conditionally calls
subs.update_settings_for_unsubscribed which calls
subs.rerender_subscriptions_settings and as such handles the update
for the subscriptions modal on its own. Hence, we simply rely on the
stream_data.update_calculated_fields to ensure the subscriber counts
are updated and make a call to
tab_bar.maybe_rerender_title_area_for_stream(sub).
stream_events.mark_subscribed is similar.
Previously, we had the lines from this block being duplicated in all
the stream update paths, which is a little brittle.
Hence, in this commit, we extract it out with a comment explaining
what it does and call it in all the duplicated spots.
My previous message_header fix
0b4568d249
accidentally changed the alignment of dates in private messages (so that
it was inconsistent to the alignment in other narrows).
We use narrow_state.stream_sub instead of narrow_state.stream to directly
get the sub object instead of stream name, while subscribing to a stream
from the stream narrow.
This commit changes stream_data.is_user_subscribed to use stream id
instead of stream name.
We are using stream ids so that we can avoid bugs related to live
update after stream rename.
We have logic in place to update the ui for re-sending messages
on recieving the acknowledgement from the server on that API call.
However, if the acknowledgement is recieved through the get events
request before the `on_success` of `resend_message`, the message
gets re-rendered allowing the failed message actions to be clickable.
Now, we update the ".message_failed" ui for both cases. This helps
in preventing the "Trying to get local_id from row that has reified
message id" exception.
Fixes#15351.
fadeTo is not a good method to hide elements since it sets
opacity to 0 in which the element still can consume space and
be clickable. We set it's display to None using fadeOut method.
Also, allow this method to be called via ui_report.error.
Previously .recipient_row_date was positioned absolutely, allowing it to
overlap with the topic name on narrow screens. This can be solved by
using flexbox. To implement the empty space between the bar controls and
the date on wider screens we move the date outside of the bar controls
(which also makes more sense semantically since the date isn't a
control).
Fixes#15501.
The stream notification settings checkboxes were not checked
even when the notifications were turned on for the stream.
This was happening because we were passing stream name to
receives_notifications instead of stream id.
This commit fixes the bug by passing stream id to
receives_notifications. This change should have been done
in f3604fb while refactoring receives_notifications to use
stream id instead of name.
As a consequence of commit 1113589b9d the backspace key and some other
keys did not respond if the search yielded no results.
This change fixes that bug.
This fixes the bug of extra topics not being rendered on scrolling.
list_render uses `max-height` to determine which container is being
scrolled upon. Set the `max-height` on the scrolling container of
recent topics to help list_render identify it.
This is useful for the emoji-picker where holding down shift lets you
select multiple emojis. Otherwise when selecting multiple emojis with
the keyboard shortcuts you would need to release shift everytime you
wanted to navigate with the arrow keys.
Previously clicking on an existing message reaction (outside of the
emoji picker) while having the emoji picker open, removed the reaction
without updating the highlighting of the reacted emoji in the emoji
picker.
The emoji picker already is already closed when clicking outside.
The message reaction click handler however previously stopped the event
propagation, leaving the picker open, allowing the inconsistency.
There is a bug when clicking on the stream row in stream settings page
subscribes/unsubscribes the user from stream. The ideal behaviour
should be that user should be subscribed/unsubscribed only
when user clicks on tick icon. The buggy behaviour is visible only after
clicking the tick icon once.
This is because clicking on tick is adding sub_unsub_button class to the
stream row, while it should be added only to the ".check" element to
re-enable the button to handle requests.
This commit fixes the bug by adding the "sub_unsub_button" class to
".check" element only and not to the stream row and same change
is done for removing the "sub_unsub_button" class also.
Subscribe/Unsubscribe button in the right section of stream settings
page is not working because the target element in click handler was
changed to 'check.sub_unsub_button' in c234b4f2 and the button in
the right section with class 'sub_unsub_button' also uses the same
click handler.
This commit reverts c234b4f2 and the bug of subscribing/unsubscribing
the user by clicking on stream row in the stream settings page, which
c234b4f2 intended to fix will be fixed in next commit.
As we add more features where rendered_markdown.update_elements does
something useful, it'll become important to run this code everywhere
we render markdown in the DOM.
One can see in this case that we had actually copied one hunk of
rendered_markdown.update_elements years ago, before we extracted it as
an independent function; we get to delete that copy.
Fixes#15500.
We do not show the warning while sending messages to announce
stream if there is a wildcard mention in the message (i.e.
when wildcard_mention != null)
There are two cases where we should ideally show the warning
but we don't-
- When there is no wildcard mention in the message and
wildcard_mention is set to undefined (initial value of
wildcard_mention).
This is because "wildcard_mention != null" returns true for
this case and thus the warning is not shown, assuming the
message to have wildcard mention.
- When previous message had a wildcard mention and now a message
is being sent with no wildcard mention.
This is because the condition "wildcard_mention != null" is
checked with the previous value of wildcard_mention and not
with the value according to current message content, and thus
the warning is not shown, assuming the message to have wildcard
mention.
This commit changes the code to set wildcard_mention from the
latest message content before performing other validations and
thus solves the problems described above.
This particular commit has been a long time coming. For reference,
!avatar(email) was an undocumented syntax that simply rendered an
inline 50px avatar for a user in a message, essentially allowing
you to create a user pill like:
`!avatar(alice@example.com) Alice: hey!`
---
Reimplementation
If we decide to reimplement this or a similar feature in the future,
we could use something like `<avatar:userid>` syntax which is more
in line with creating links in markdown. Even then, it would not be
a good idea to add this instead of supporting inline images directly.
Since any usecases of such a syntax are in automation, we do not need
to make it userfriendly and something like the following is a better
implementation that doesn't need a custom syntax:
` Alice: hey!`
---
History
We initially added this syntax back in 2012 and it was 'deprecated'
from the get go. Here's what the original commit had to say about
the new syntax:
> We'll use this internally for the commit bot. We might eventually
> disable it for external users.
We eventually did start using this for our github integrations in 2013
but since then, those integrations have been neglected in favor of
our GitHub webhooks which do not use this syntax.
When we copied `!gravatar` to add the `!avatar` syntax, we also noted
that we want to deprecate the `!gravatar` syntax entirely - in 2013!
Since then, we haven't advertised either of these syntaxes anywhere
in our docs, and the only two places where this syntax remains is
our game bots that could easily do without these, and the git commit
integration that we have deprecated anyway.
We do not have any evidence of someone asking about this syntax on
chat.zulip.org when developing an integration and rightfully so- only
the people who work on Zulip (and specifically, markdown) are likely
to stumble upon it and try it out.
This is also the only peice of code due to which we had to look up
emails -> userid mapping in our backend markdown. By removing this,
we entirely remove the backend markdown's dependency on user emails
to render messages.

Previously, the function update_table_stream_color did not update the
color of the date_row when it appeared within a topic. This was
incorrect because it meant that a small piece of the border to the
left of the message box would be left to the previous color when the
stream color was updated. This commit resolves the issue by adding an
update.
Fixes#15197.
To make the typeahead code more readable, we extract this function to
timerender. We also improve the logic to be more readable, and add tests
to confirm its validity.
We have moved our invalid timestamp logic to use timestamp-error class,
however, if there are any valid outputs by the backend markdown that
the frontend considers invalid, we want to debug them. This commit
adds tooling to ensure we log those error messages.
We had been using !time() syntax for timestamps so far. Since its
an unreleased feature, we can make changes without affecting many
people.
Fixes#15442.
This commit fixes a bug where clicking on a stream row on the left
in the subscriptions table called the ".stream-row" as well as the
".sub_unsub_button" click events in `stream_edit.js`.
This caused the stream subscription to toggle everytime the row was
clicked. Also, this bug is only observed if the ".sub_unsub_button"
had been clicked first.
The previous element passed was a simplebar container which calculated
the incorrect height, thus `scroll_util.scroll_element_into_container`
had no effect.
There is a bug and race issue that occurs when a message is selected
while we are in the process of reifying a locally echoed message,
raising the "Selected message id not in MessageList" error.
The code flow to get the exception is as follows:
* A user sends a message to the current narrow we are in.
* Before the new message event is received, we sent a message to
the same message list which renders it with a locally echoed id.
* One of the ways of getting the exception is to already have the
locally sent message selected, before receiving an acknowledgment
from the server.
* Thus the Message List Data's `selected_id` now points to the new
message id. The exception is raised on entering the `was_selected`
if block inside `message_list_view` which tries to re-select the
message.
Updating the `_rerender_message` code for this special case won't fix
the entire bug because, as mentioned above there are other ways of
getting the exception:
Ideally, after all our synchronous work (`echo.process_from_server`)
has completed we would expect the re-order and re-render work of the
`change_message_id` would occur first, due to the timer of the
setTimeout being set to 0.
However as evident from the race condition existing, this isn't always
the case. `change_message_id` function is responsible for 3 things:
updation, re-ordering and re-rendering.
The first one which is responsible for updating the message list's
local cache, occurs synchronously while for the latter two, they both
occur asynchronously.
Before the setTimeout which is responsible for the latter two actions,
is encountered the user might select the message by clicking or more
commonly by scrolling, which causes this message selection event to be
ahead of the setTimeout in the callback queue.
During this time frame, our race condition takes place.
And even though the message id is updated it's Message List is not
in the correct sort order, which leads to `closest_id` !== `id` in
`MessageList_select_id` being true and raising the exception.
Now, we only asynchronously call the re_render function, to guarantee
the data is always correct and UI updates should be done at the end.
Extended by tabbott to comment the setTimeout call.
Fixes#15346.
