Instead of treating false differently from undefined, our
function is now a regular boolean function, and we limit our
code comments to the one corner case where the true/false
decision is kind of arbitrary and possibly confusing.
The buddy list never includes yourself nor bots, so we
remove the special case handling for those situations.
If we were to put bots or the current user back in the list,
I'm not convinced the old logic was what we'd want in either
case going forward.
For example, we might want to fade bots that aren't subscribed
to public streams, since they might otherwise confuse people,
but then again they would receive messages. And then "yourself"
is a recipient in the technical sense but they're kinda
not and either way it doesn't provide much signal either way.
We don't need to special-case the stream cog handler when we
handle the click event for the surrounding header. The browser
will fire the event for the cog first, which stops propagation.
The new list_cursor class is more generic and saves the state
of your cursor across redraws.
Note that we no longer cycle from bottom to top or vice versa.
The node test code that was removed here was kind of complex
and didn't actually assert useful things after calling methods.
When we populate the buddy list or update it for activity, we now
have buddy_data set a faded flag that is rendered in the template.
This avoids some re-rendering overhead and is on the eventual path
to having our widget be more data-oriented (and all rendering happens
"behind" the widget).
We still do direct DOM updates when the compose state changes or
when we get peer subscription events.
This introduces a generic class called list_cursor to handle the
main details of navigating the buddy list and wires it into
activity.js. It replaces some fairly complicated code that
was coupled to stream_list and used lots of jQuery.
The new code interacts with the buddy_list API instead of jQuery
directly. It also persists the key across redraws, so we don't
lose our place when a focus ping happens or we type more characters.
Note that we no longer cycle to the top when we hit the bottom, or
vice versa. Cycling can be kind of an anti-feature when you want to
just lay on the arrow keys until they hit the end.
The changes to stream_list.js here do not affect the left sidebar;
they only remove code that was used for the right sidebar.
The blur_search() function was removed in this commit:
See da06832837
We now no longer attempt to call it. It's not completely clear
to me what this did before, but we are rewriting a lot of the
keyboard navigation for search anyway.
In this cleanup I make it so that all jQuery selector references
are toward the top of the module, and we do all finds relative
to the container ('#user_presences').
This will make it easier to make a better list abstraction for
the buddy list, for things like progressive rendering.
This was a bit more than moving code. I extracted the
following things:
$widget (and three helper methods)
$input
text()
empty()
expand_column
close_widget
activity.clear_highlight
There was a minor bug before this commit, where we were inconsistent
about trimming spaces. The introduction of text() and empty() should
prevent bugs where users type the space bar into search.
A recent change filtered out offline users from the buddy list
whenever the list size would otherwise exceed 600.
This commit reverts half that change--we can now show 600+ users
again, but only when searching.
The removed code path was only needed due to buggy setup code in the
test_cross_realm_scenarios test. We address that with a less buggy
workaround, and which lets us remove unnecessary complexity from this
important validation function.
Thanks for Umair Waheed for some preliminary work on this.
Fixes#7561.
This commit adds a --quiet argument to tools/webpack which removes
the verbose output from webpack and replaces it with showing only
errors. It also makes tools/run-dev --tests use this argument while
running webpack for testing.
Tweaked by tabbott to clean up the code a bit.
This is because we cover the case of `realm_allow_message_editing` by
`realm_msg_edit_limit_setting` after the conversion into dropdown.
This commit also contains a minor variable renaming.
Add realm setting to set time limit for message deleitng.
Set default value of message_content_delete_limit_seconds
to 600 seconds(10 min).
Thanks to Shubham Dhama for rebasing and reworking this. Some final
edits also done by Tim Abbott.
Fixes#7344.
It's actually "subscription" and "message" (neither is plural).
While we're at it, we should also remove the "pointer" event type,
since that's of generally low interest.
Epics are a way to further organize Pivotal Stories and are a
somewhat advanced feature that would take a significant amount of
work to properly implement. Unless we get requests for supporting
epics, I don't think we should support them.
This fixes an issue where with very tall messages (more than about a
screen in height), one would end up scrolled to the bottom of the
message if you clicked on it, which usually felt annoying.
Fixes#8941.
This verifies an important case. We still have an open bug for why in
some production environments, the email_gateway_bot seems to not be
tagged as an API super user (resulting in this code path not working).
Apparently, this bot account was not properly being tagged as an API
super user in the test database; resulting in incorrect behavior if we
tried to send to a private stream in a test.
(Note that there seems to also be a similar issue in production, that
we don't understand the cause of; that is unrelated).
static/styles/scss/portico.scss is now compiled by webpack
and supports SCSS syntax.
Changed the server-side templates to render the portico-styles
bundle instead of directly requiring the portico stylesheet. This
allows webpack to handle stylesheet compilation and minification.
We use the mini-css-extract-plugin to extract out css from the
includes in webpack and let webpacks production mode handle
minification. Currently we're not able to use it for dev mode
because it does not support HMR so we use style-loader instead.
Once the plugin supports HMR we can go on to use it for both
dev and prod.
The downside of this is that when reloading pages in the development
environment, there's an annoying flash of unstyled content :(.
It is now possible to make a change in any of the styles included
by static/styles/scss/portico.scss and see the code reload live
in the browser. This is because style-loader which we currently
use has the module.accept code built-in.
This commit fixes hot module replacement in webpack. To do this
we open port 9994 used by webpack to communicate between browser
and devserver. The attempts to forward the proxy from 9991 failed
so the last resort was to open up the webpack port.
It also removes an uncessary plugin in the webpack config and moves
the --hot flag to tools/webpack.
Previously, we did a rerender without first re-computing which
messages were muted; this was incorrect, because whether a message is
muted can change if the topic changes.
Fixes#9241.
