We had been waiting on doing this for a long time to make sure the
feature actually did what it was supposed to (completed last week);
this change adds the typeahead to ensure it actually works.
While we're fixing this, we remove the split between the edit and
compose code paths for typeahead, which is good, because we'd already
accidentally added the syntax-highlighting feature in only one place.
Fixes#195.
We never make an actionable distinction between the "unknown"
presence status and the "offline" status, so we now
just use "offline" as the status for persons who don't
have recent presence records that the client knows about.
(Usually, users without presence rows have never been online,
or they have been deactivated, or they have been offline so long
that they don't show up in our date-limited queries.)
We are about to stop supporting the presence status of "unknown."
Part of this fix is to stop checking for that status.
The implication of this change is that when we go
to display the time a user was last online, we now
mostly just look to see if presence.last_active_date
is undefined. We were wary of that approach before, but it
is probably the most sane approach here.
I updated the comment abover this section to reflect
our philosophy going forward.
BTW the timestamp is kind of buried in the UI for now, as you have to
open the popover and then hover over the circular presence
indicator.
We sometimes get blueslip errors from browsers that are clearly still
attempting to reload long after they should have. These browsers can
produce a lot of unnecessary presence update exceptions.
To solve that, we start checking reload_in_progress in the presence
code path.
While we're at it, we also add some blueslip logging for the reload
code path, in case it becomes useful when debugging future issues.
We've had a few reports of users using modern Chrome having problems
where reload.is_in_progress() was true, but the browser was just
sitting there, not having reloaded.
This will continually attempt to reload the page periodically try and
compensate for the behavior in Chrome where it appears that the tab
has to be active or semi-active for `location.reload` to be respected
when Chrome is trying to save power, which means that it should just
continually try until the page is active again, in which case the
`location.reload` func will work and reload the page.
See https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/03/background_tabs
for the Chrome featureset that we believe may be involved with this
issue.
Tweaked by tabbott to reload earlier and add the on-focus handler.
Fixes: #6821.
While applying formatting to drafts if any draft contains some syntax
which our markdown processor is unable to process delete the draft so
that drafts overlay can be opened without any error. Also report the
exception to the server so that error can be fixed.
The issue has a lot of extra details, but in short, if several
messages were sent at very close to the same time, it's possible that
the event queues will receive the "new message" events out-of-order.
This, in turn, could cause `get_events` to return an incorrectly
sorted block of messages. These would then be passed into
`message_list.add_messages`, which doesn't handle that sort of
unsorted situation correctly (in short, the `self.first.id()`
comparison checks are not accurate for that situation, since we don't
update the boundaries after the first messages is processed).
The end result of this bug was that it was possible for the message
list to be out-of-order, which in turn would cause exceptions when
scrolling with the mouse.
Fixes#6948.
Previously it was called before the event was processed by the server
and the subscription was updated to have the user subscribed to a
stream, so there was a race condition that would make it iso that
sometimes the stream line would disappear on the next render pass due
to the event not having completed yet.
This makes it so that the re-render happens after the event is
processed in `stream_events.js`.
Fixes: #6797.
This refactors the arguments in the `setup_subscriptions_stream_hash`
method to remove the `stream_id` param and just take it from the `sub`
argument it is passed (which is an object that contains the property,
`stream_id`.
This was a not-well-thought-through behavior change done in #6489; the
part that was actually a problem was ctrl-enter not producing spaces
anyway.
So we fix this, and also add a comment explaining why.
Fixes#6908.
Request for adding an reaction only if there is a default emoji or
an active realm emoji with that name while request for removing a
reaction should be sent only if there is a default emoji or a realm
emoji(may be active or deactivated) with that name. Earlier we were
not including deactivated realm emojis while deciding whether a
request for removing a reaction should be sent or not which was
causing requests for the removal of reactions with deactivated realm
emojis not to be sent to the backend.
Fixes: #6007.
The original "quality score" was invented purely for populating
our password-strength progress bar, and isn't expressed in terms
that are particularly meaningful. For configuration and the core
accept/reject logic, it's better to use units that are readily
understood. Switch to those.
I considered using "bits of entropy", defined loosely as the log
of this number, but both the zxcvbn paper and the linked CACM
article (which I recommend!) are written in terms of the number
of guesses. And reading (most of) those two papers made me
less happy about referring to "entropy" in our terminology.
I already knew that notion was a little fuzzy if looked at
too closely, and I gained a better appreciation of how it's
contributed to confusion in discussing password policies and
to adoption of perverse policies that favor "Password1!" over
"derived unusual ravioli raft". So, "guesses" it is.
And although the log is handy for some analysis purposes
(certainly for a graph like those in the zxcvbn paper), it adds
a layer of abstraction, and I think makes it harder to think
clearly about attacks, especially in the online setting. So
just use the actual number, and if someone wants to set a
gigantic value, they will have the pleasure of seeing just
how many digits are involved.
(Thanks to @YJDave for a prototype that the code changes in this
commit are based on.)
We now return user_ids for subscribers to streams in add-stream
events. This allows us to eliminate the UserLite class for
both bulk adds and bulk removes. It also simplifies some JS
code that already wanted to use user_ids, not emails.
Fixes#6898
This function was extracted from build_user_sidebar(). We
also slightly streamlined it to not unnecessarily call
filter() when the filter text was blank. This extraction
also eliminated the need for us to have the two-line
filter_and_sort() function.
Also, we get to 100% coverage in this commit.
We now intialize user-list-filter within activity.initialize(),
which gives us more control to set the module variable
`meta.$user_list_filter` before we build the user sidebar,
while setting up its handlers after we build the sidebar.
We've been getting reports for a few months of folks coming back to
their Zulip window after a night's sleep and finding it scrolled to
the bottom, past dozens or hundreds of messages that they haven't
read. Oddly, the pointer is actually still located where it should be
(verifiable by hitting the Up key), but it's too late: everything
below gets marked as read because bottom_whitespace is in view.
There's only a few places in the zulip codebase where we scroll the
page down, and this is the main one of them. My best theory for what
could be happening is that the browser is, in its overnight
power-saving mode, not granting the Zulip window the resources to
actually repaint the early scrolls. This, in turn, would cause
scrolling down to happen that is not limited by the need to keep the
pointer in view.
I don't think that this fully closes the issue; ideally, we'd have a
reproducer and much more precise detection logic for this situation,
but it should mostly resolve the problem with likely no user-facing
visible harm.
Previously we used to mark a key as unstranlated if its value was equal
to it in translations.json. This had an issue because it didn't allow
otherwise valid cases where key was equal to the value.
This commit solves the problem by disallowing an empty string as a valid
translation and then using the empty string as the value for all the
unstranslated keys.
Fixes#5261
Currently when hovering on an emoji it will focus it, which makes
the browser by default scroll down or up to include the entirity
of the focused element. This corects the scrollTop to what it was
before the focus event adjusted the scroll position.
This is a follow-up to #6869.
Previously, you had to hover over the smaller area where the emoji
image was to select it, whereas the user expectation is that hovering
the emoji's padding should select it as well.
This commit makes the arrow key navigation and mouse hover affect the
same state such that for example if one moves the mouse over some emoji
and then hits down-arrow the cursor will move down by one from where he
left the mouse at rather than beginning from the top-left corner.
Fixes: #6827.
This will look through all users and not just ones active in the last
three weeks but only when you are searching with the right sidebar
input box.
Fixes: #5775.
This tries to toggle the next item when clicking on an <h2>
in the sidebar, however we want to first check the next item is
an <ul> element, so that we are collapsing or showing a list,
instead of something like an <h2> which currently happens with
the "#guides" element.
