We probably should have done this a while ago, even
though these functions are pretty tiny. The goal here
is to make it easier to have more consistent search
semantics.
Our first use case is subs.js. In this case we
are able to decouple a bit of generic string
matching from the subs-specific code.
We move some data code from subs.js to stream_data.js.
It's not clear we have been using the optimal sort for
dealing with locales, but this change preserves the
current behavior. The only subtle change here is that
we look up subs using a Dict now instead of a plain
JS object.
We now render the "skin" part of "Stream Settings" before
adding in the actual streams. The new function
populate_stream_settings_left_panel() takes care of adding
the streams. It uses a new template called
`subscriptions.handlebars`.
Splitting out this function will give us more flexibility
for various improvements.
First, we can decide to render the list after we open the
overlay, just to avoid the problem that users don't know why
the modal's opening. (And we could add a loader spinner as
needed.)
Second, we can improve our filter features so that we do
filtering in the data instead of moving DOM rows around,
which is expensive.
Third, we can eventually introduce progressive rendering.
Finally, having the function broken out will make profiling
more precise about where bottlenecks exist.
We were passing this in before, but having it as
a data member reinforces the idea that we'll want
this to be a first-class concept in the list, since
we depend on ordering for various things.
We now keep track of keys in buddy_list.js, so that
when we insert/remove items, we no longer need to
traverse all the DOM. Instead, we just find out
which position in the list we need to insert the
key in (where "key" is "user_id") and then find
the relevant DOM node directly and insert the new
HTML before that node. (And of course we still
account for the "append" case.)
There's a little more bookkeeping to make this
happen, but it should help reduce some code in
upcoming commits and pave the way toward
progressive rendering optimizations.
This commit should produce a minor speedup
for activity-related events that go through
buddy_list.insert_or_move(), since we are
not traversing the DOM to find insertion points
any more.
Typing "tim " did not did not produce any match when suggesting person
in composebox typeahead or user group typeahead as the space at the
end of the "tim " string passed by the browser was a
`no break-space (U+00A0)` instead of `space (U+0020)`.
Although there are unicode characters other than `no break-space` which
represent spaces, only U+00A0 is replaced as it was the only space
character encountered when testing this issue manually.
Fixes#10039.
To reduce code duplication when creating hotkey deprecation notices,
create the `get_hotkey_deprecation_notice` function. Also, create a
`ui` testing file with a test for the new function.
Fix#10004.
This replaces some old code with calls to topic_data.js.
Now our topic typeahead uses the same data as our
sidebar, stream suggestions, and the "n" key, so any
future improvements to that data will benefit all
features the same.
This is an important piece of #9857.
Now that `emoji_collection` and `emojis_by_name` are global
datasources in the webapp we need to rename things carefully
to reflect their actual meaning. The fact that emoji code is
used as a css class for unicode emoji is one thing but it is
not its sole use so renaming it seems a good idea.
This commit moves the `emoji_collection` datasource in the emoji
picker to emoji.js and renames it to `emojis_by_name`. It is a
mapping from emoji name to object where each object describes an
emoji. This is an effort in the direction of de-duplicating and
unifying the datasets being used by various our widgets(like
emoji picker and composebox typeahead) in the webapp. Migrating
all the widgets to a single datasource will help us in removing
the whole class of annoying bugs which causes some emojis to be
missing from some widgets.
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.
If search pills are not enabled, the text present in the search bar
will be selected on pressing '/' and writing someting without deselecting
the text will clear the search text. Since selecting the pills would
not make sense in this context, the search box is focused instead.
Adds box-shadow to `#searchbox` when either `#search_query` or any
of the pills have focus. Uses jquery instead of pure css as the
`:focus` event occurs on `#search_query`, while we want to add
box-shadow to `#searchbox`. This could have been done with
`:focus-within` CSS selector, but it is not supported in IE or Opera.
`#search_query` already had an onfocus/focusout listener, adding
listeners to `#searchbox.pills` for those events wouldn't have worked
as you don't want the focusout event to fire when the focus shifts
from input to pill.
Also adds `focusin`, `focusout` and `css()` to zjquery. `css` is
same as `val`, except it returns an empty object in case of no value
instead of an empty string. I don't think `css()` is valid syntax
in actual jquery.
After adding search pills, suggestions were based only on the
current input and no validation against the existing pills was done.
operator_subset_suggestions have been removed. Default suggestions
for base_operators have also been removed.
Handle multiple operators:
if `is:starred stream:Ver` was typed without selecting the typeahead
or pressing enter in between i.e search pill for is:starred has not yet
been added, then the description of `is:starred` will act as a prefix
in every suggestion.
Also makes changes re-enabling person suggestions for names with spaces.
This large function will need to be modified significantly as part of
the pills effort, and copying it lets us preserve behavior in
production until we're ready to cut things over.
tab_bar.js becomes redundant after implementation of search pills.
This commit adds a comment to tab_bar.initiliaze, so the event
listeners related to it do not get initiated. This does not remove
any code related to tab_bar.js.
Also adds left and right border around the search icon.
Following points have been implemented in this commit:
1.) Add search pill on selecting typeahead.
2.) Re-narrow after removing a search pill.
3.) Add quiet optional parameter to removeLastPill.
4.) Pre populate search pills in narrow.activate.
5.) Clear existing search pills on narrow.deactivate.
Description of above points:
1.) I tried out using the description from suggestions.lookup_table
to append a pill using appendValidatedData so that the description
had not to be calculated again. But the description in the suggestions
lookup contains html due to highlighting. This html is escaped when
inputed in a pill. An attempt was also made to remove the higlighting
by replacing the tags. But other espaced characters like < also
popped up, so it was better to use append_search_string.
3.) If one wants to refresh the pill using pill.clear and wants to
repopulate them, evaluating the event_handler associated with the
action of removing the pill may not be desired.
4.) Pill population code is added to narrow.activate. Pills are not
populated if the narrow was triggered by search as search handles the
addition and removal of pill by itself. The reason for not handling
search too in narrow.activate is to avoid clearing the pills and
repopulating them. Example of some of the triggers for narrow.activate
include `restore draft`, `topic change`,`sidebar`.
Also modifies tests for search.js
This forks off search_legacy.js and search_suggestion_legacy.js so
that we can continue running automated tests against the legacy search
code while we develop the input pills feature.
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.
Previous commits have fully implemented the logic for stream email
notifications; this final commit adds support for configuring it to
the UI.
Fixes#6511.
