Showing section separators in the left sidebar ("Pinned streams",
"Active streams", etc.) is unnecessary when there is only one section,
and can feel confusing. We should show the separators only when there
is more than one section present.
Fixes#22843.
Instead of topic filter box being a part of the list when keeps
updating, we move it out and fix its position.
This should reduce rendering time of topics list and provide
a smoother experience to users when waiting for topics list to
load.
Since stream header is now sticky, we need to reduce it's height
when calculation position of the element we want to scroll into view
so that it doesn't hide under the sticky header.
This commit introduces the change of rendering private messages
section as collapsible, whose data-fetching logic came with zulip#21357.
We now have separated out `Private messages` from `top_left_corner`
section and shifted it below the `global_filters` in a different
separate section along with stream list with common scroll bar
in left-sidebar.
The new PM section will be opened by-default on loading the page
and will have a toggle-icon in its header, clicking on which makes the
section collapse/expand accordingly.
In default view, only recent 5 PM threads would be shown
and would append the active conversation as the 6th one at last
if not present in those 5, similar to how topics list work.
In PM section with unreads, a maximum of 8 conversations
would be shown and rest of them would be hidden behind
the 'more conversations' li-item, clicking on which takes
to the zoomedIn view of PM section where all the present
PM threads would be visible and rest of the sections of left-sidebar
will get collapsed.
Fixes#20870.

The "Subscribe to more streams" widget has always had this tension
between "Subscribe" vs. "Create" in a way that felt like whatever we
wrote could be confusing. To address this, we enhance the component to
advertise whether additional existing streams that the user can
subscribe to actually exist or not.
- When the user has N>0 streams they can subscribe to, we display
"Browse N more streams".
- When the user has no streams they can subscribe to (i.e. they're
already susbcribed to all the ones they could join) but the user has
permission to create streams, we show a "Create a stream" link.
- If the user doesn't have permission to subscribe to or create any
streams, we don't show a link at all.
Fixes#21865.

The stream list left sidebar currently has 3 sections:
* Pinned (+ Muted pinned streams)
* Active (+ Muted active streams)
* Inactive streams
Previously, these sections were separated by horizontal lines, which
did not provide an easy way to discern why there were sections. We add
labels to these section dividers to help with this.
Additionally, within each section, we now sort all muted streams to
the bottom, so that they general minimal clutter.
Fixes#19812.
It's 2022 and the WHATWG no longer recognizes the term URI. Everything
is now a URL or a type of URL. Which is great because it's way less
confusing. Details here:
https://url.spec.whatwg.org/
We add a popover on click which allows user to create or browse
streams too.
Reason for doing so:
At present, it is hard to discover how to join streams
and create new streams. In particular:
Users have a hard time finding the gear in the STREAMS
header in the left sidebar and realizing that it's relevant for them.
Even once a user is in the STREAMS menu, the Create
stream button is hard to spot.
Fixes#18694.
The Event.which and Event.keyCode are deprecated as pointed out by
TypeScript intellisense based on the jQuery types. We use Event.key
instead which behaves similarly to Event.which & Event.keyCode for
our use case.
The only difference in functionality by this change is that the vim
keys won't work when Caps Lock is on. This is because, in this case,
the key property will be "J" instead of 'j'. We can fix this by
adding a mapping for this, however, I think we don't want to handle
this case so I left this change out. Tested by trying out the
everywhere keydown_util is used.
Finally, we also turn off the new-cap rule for tests since I think
it fine to only enforce it on real code and exempting test code is
fine.
This reduces the complexity of our dependency graph.
It also makes sub_store.get parallel to message_store.get.
For both you pass in the relevant id to get the
full validated object.
The series of commits to consolidate CSS classes
for the various unread-count spans across our app
created a bug where the stream_list.js code's selector
starting capturing the unread spans in topic list items.
Suppose you had a stream with these topics:
Foo 10
a 3
b 3
c 4
If another unread came in, you would briefly see:
Foo 11
a 11
b 11
c 11
Now we just use subscription_block to find the
element that we want to tweak.
I remove a convoluted node test here. Part of the
reason the node test was convoluted was that the
original implementation was overly complex. I will
try to re-introduce a simpler test soon, but this
is a bit of an emergency fix.
Apparently, we never tested the unlikely behavior of deleting the last stream,
and doing so would result in exceptions being thrown (and thus no UI update).
Fixes: #16691
Now when we want to measure how long a block
of code takes to execute, we just wrap it with
`blueslip.measure_time`, instead of the awkward
idiom from my original commit of getting a callback
function.
My rationale for the original scheme was that I
wanted to minimize diffs and avoid changing
`const` to `let` in a few cases, but I believe
now that the function wrapper is nicer.
In a few cases I just removed the blueslip timing
code, since I was able to confirm on czo that
the times were pretty minimal.
We were adding `expanded` class to left-sidebar when searching
for streams even if the left-sidebar was not in the popover state.
This cased confusion with popovers.any_active returning true,
when actually it is not.
Currently, the Stream Name change isn't reflected in the streams
sidebar when a stream is renamed if the order of streams in the
sidebar remains unchanged, because the optimization to avoid
rerendering when nothing changes about the order prevents the
rerendering code from running.
We fix by this adding a flag in build_stream_list and
update_streams_sidebar functions to force a rerender, and pass that
when a stream is renamed.
Fixes#16026.
Instead of prohibiting ‘return undefined’ (#8669), we require that a
function must return an explicit value always or never. This prevents
you from forgetting to return a value in some cases. It will also be
important for TypeScript, which distinguishes between undefined and
void.

ES and TypeScript modules are strict by default and don’t need this
directive. ESLint will remind us to add it to new CommonJS files and
remove it from ES and TypeScript modules.

We will store list of stream ids to sort streams instead of names.
We have added a compare_function for sorting the list of stream_ids
by comparing stream names.
This change helps us to remove a couple of get_sub calls and using
stream ids instead of name also helps in avoiding bugs caused due
to live update on renaming of stream.
