Once we convert message.flags to more specific boolean attributes
like message.mentioned and message.alerted, we should get rid of
the `flags` attribute, as it will only confuse debugging.
We no longer set message.flags in the local echo path.
In the markdown parsing step, we just set message.mentioned
directly.
And then we change `insert_new_messages` to no longer
convert flags to booleans, and move that code to only
happen for incoming server message events.
We want to call `set_message_booleans` as soon as we
get data from the server, to avoid confusion about whether
`flags` is the authoritative field.
This commit has callers to `add_message_metadata` call
`set_message_booleans`.
This also sets us up to **not** call `set_message_booleans`
in the local echo codepath, where we can just have the
markdown processor set booleans natively.
In the JS code, we now use `message.unread` universally as
the indicator of whether a message is unread, rather than
the `message.flags` array that gets passed down to us
from the server.
In particular, we use the unread flag for filtering when
you search.
A lot of this commit is just removing logic to add/remove
"read" from `message.flags` and updating tests.
We also explicitly set `message.unread` to `false` inside of
`unread.mark_as_read()` and no longer have `unread.set_flag()`.
(Some of the callers to `unread.set_flag` were also calling
`unread.mark_as_read`, which was updating the `message`
object, so now we just have `unread.mark_as_read` update
the `message` object. And then unread_ops.mark_all_as_read()
was already calling unread.declare_bankruptcy().)
This adds two similar functions to simplify
our batch processing of unread messages.
unread.get_unread_messages
unread.get_unread_message_ids
They are used to simplify two functions that loop
over messages. Before this change, the functions
would short circuit the loop to ignore messages
that were already read; now they just use the
helpers before the loop.
Adds type "embedded bot" to bot creation menu. Lets
users select a bot to run from a list of bots.
Currently, this list is hard-coded into the backend.
Currently, users are warned when mentioning @all and @everyone, but not
when posting on the #announce stream. Confirm with users that they want
to send their message on #announce if over 60 people are going to be
notified.
Fixes#6928.
This reverts commit eb2bdb706 "sidebar: Narrow to latest topic if
not in stream." On a trial deploy, many users were surprised and
preferred the old behavior.
This fixes compose.test_video_link_compose_clicked to just
use a stub for compose_ui.insert_syntax_and_focus.
It also adds direct tests for compose_ui.insert_syntax_and_focus.
Fixes#6362
We now narrow to the latest topic in stream if we are narrowing from
outside the stream, and show all topics grouped together (previous
default) if we are already narrowed to the stream.
Fixes#7555.
This solves the issue with typeahead appearing in the middle of an
already-completed typeahead word.
Example: Earlier, '@ran|dom' would also trigger the typeahead and show
'random', but selecting it would turn it into '@**random** dom'.
We still have a problem to solve of preventing typeahead from
appearing on a space in the middle of an already-completed typeahead
word, but that is its own independent bug.
