These functions were just shims that were
used in the somewhat painful migration from
subject_* to topic_*.
The commit 4572be8c27
fixed it so that the client never needs to
deal with "subject_links".
So now we just go back to simpler code:
message.topic_links = links
links = message.topic_links
I am not quite ready to declare victory on
the subject/topic migration, but we are super
close. In this commit I bump a blueslip
warning to a blueslip error, so that we'll
be notified of any codepath that is still
using the janky fall-back-to-subject defensive
code here.
If we go a couple days without any errors, then
we can remove the blueslip warning and the
defensive code immediately and then inline
the callers at our leisure. I wouldn't be
wildly against keeping these wrappers in some
parts of the code, but that debate is out of
the scope of this immediate fix, and I haven't
thought hard about it yet.
We can basically sweep set_message_topic() now,
if we wanted to, since it's truly just a one-liner.
(At one point it was encapsulating something
like `message.subject = foo`).
This required a tiny change to compose_fade
test setup.
Most of this logic is specific to markdown
message processing, so we move the code to
markdown.js.
The only responsibility that we leave with
`emoji.js` is to provide us with a list
of translations (regex and replacement text).
But now `markdown.js` actually (directly) executes
those translations against Zulip messages
as part of its preprocessing.
This should simplify the upcoming mobile conversion.
Instead of mobile needing to duplicate this fairly
complex function, they will just need to pass
us in a list similar to `emoji_translations` inside
of `emoji.js`. That code has a comment that shows
what the data structure looks like.
I am 99% sure we can rely on trimRight() and
trim() being available in all browsers that
we support. I verified in FF.
This removes the util dependency from both
modules touched here.
We now treat util like a leaf module and
use "require" to import it everywhere it's used.
An earlier version of this commit moved
util into our "shared" library, but we
decided to wait on that. Once we're ready
to do that, we should only need to do a
simple search/replace on various
require/zrequire statements plus a small
tweak to one of the custom linter checks.
It turns out we don't really need util.js
for our most immediate code-sharing goal,
which is to reuse our markdown code on
mobile. There's a little bit of cleanup
still remaining to break the dependency,
but it's minor.
The util module still calls the global
blueslip module in one place, but that
code is about to be removed in the next
few commits.
I am pretty confident that once we start
sharing things like the typeahead code
more aggressively, we'll start having
dependencies on util. The module is barely
more than 300 lines long, so we'll probably
just move the whole thing into shared
rather than break it apart. Also, we
can continue to nibble away at the
cruftier parts of the module.
We used to have a block of code doing this just in the presence
endpoint because that's where we'd had error-handling problems with it
not being present, but it seems more correct for it to run
unconditionally on all HTTP requests.
This requires adding a dependency of channel on reload_state, which we
record in the webpack configuration for now.
webpack optimizes JSON modules using JSON.parse("{…}"), which is
faster than the normal JavaScript parser.
Update the backend to use emoji_codes.json too instead of the three
separate JSON files.

I believe we can remove these and rely on
other parts of our testing/code-review
to ensure template quality.
These tests never really exercised our
app code, as evidenced by us not regressing
any of the 100%-line-coverage files.
We have a couple other ways that we verify
the correct format of the templates:
- webpack (can they compile?)
- check-templates (are they nicely indented?)
For deep testing, we have Casper, which
exercises most of our most important templates
in some meaningful way.
I think it's pretty rare that we get bugs
now that are directly caused by bad templates,
and an even smaller subset of them would
have been caught by the node tests.
If that trend changes in the future, I would prefer to
just do something "greenfield" to address
any common problems rather than resurrect
this code, but we could always resurrect it
from git.
The template node tests did check a little bit of
detail about which fields are there, but not
in an integrated way, so that aspect of the tests
wasn't very useful either.
This effectively reverts the following
commit from May 2019:
be527905ca
The implementation of closest() was a bit
buggy and complex. It's easy enough
to just stub the method yourself. We may
want to eventually re-implement it, but we
should follow the template of parent/set_parent.
If you fail to stub `closest` zjquery gives
a fairly helpful error message:
Error: You must create a stub for $("link-stub").closest
We stub out jquery elements rather than giving
the illusion of having real DOM.
Also, we make it so that the message_store
interaction has an assertion attached to it.
In the next commit we're going to change what the
server sends for the following:
- page_params
- server responses to /json/users/me/presence
We will **not** yet be changing the format of the data
that we get in events when users update their presence.
It's also just a bit in flux what our final formats
will be for various presence payloads, and different
optimizations may lead us to use different data
structures in different payloads.
So for now we decouple these two things:
raw_info: this is intended to represent a
snapshot of the latest data from the
server, including some data like
timestamps that are only used
in downstream calculations and not
user-facing
exports.presence_info: this is calculated
info for modules like buddy_data that
just need to know active vs. idle and
last_active_date
Another change that happens here is we rename
set_info_for_user to update_info_for_event,
which just makes it clear that the function
expects data in the "event" format (as opposed
to the format for page_params or server
responses).
As of now keeping the intermediate raw_info data
around feels slightly awkward, because we just
immediately calculate presence_info for any kind
of update. This may be sorta surprising if you
just skim the code and see the various timeout
constants. You would think we might be automatically
expiring "active" statuses in the client due to
the simple passage of time, but in fact the precise
places we do this are all triggered by new data
from the server and we re-calculate statuses
immediately.
(There are indirect ways that clients
have timing logic, since they ask the
server for new data at various intervals, but a
smarter client could simply expire users on its
own, or at least with a more efficient transfer
of info between it and the server. One of
the thing that complicates client-side logic
is that server and client clocks may be out
of sync. Also, it's not inherently super expensive
to get updates from the server.)
The important details for the test setup here
are just the number of users who are active.
We don't need to simulate the currently awkward
way of populating this data.
The _.each calls with an inline function expression have already been
converted to for…of loops. We could do that here, but using .forEach
when we’re just reusing an existing function seems like a good
guideline.

predicate is expected to return a function, not a boolean. The
boolean true was causing _.filter to match items with a property named
"true", which is definitely not what was intended. Matching no items
is probably also not intended, but matching every item causes the test
to fail.

We just get the stream_name from the sub struct now.
This mostly affects node tests.
The only place in real code where we called add_sub()
was when we initialized data from the server.
We now require all of our unit tests to handle
blueslip errors for warn/error/fatal. This
simplifies the zblueslip code to not have any
options passed in.
Most of the places changed here fell into two
categories:
- We were just missing a random piece of
setup data in a happy path test.
- We were testing error handling in just
a lazy way to ensure 100% coverage. Often
these error codepaths were fairly
contrived.
The one place where we especially lazy was
the stream_data tests, and those are now
more thorough.
This saves a tiny bit of bandwidth, but more
importantly, it protects us against races for
stream name changes. There's some argument that
if the user is thinking they're sending to
old_stream_name, and unbeknownst to them, the
stream has changed to new_stream_name, then we
should fail. But I think 99% of the time the
user just wants the message to go that stream
despite any renames.
In order to verify the blueslip error, we
had to turn on error checking, which required
a tiny fix to a place where we left out
a stream_id for add_sub.
We avoid complicated code to update unread counts
by just using vdom.js.
One small change here is that if click on "more
topics", we replace it with the spinner instead
of putting the spinner after it. This saves us
a redraw under the new scheme.

We had a plan at some point to use this to display a phone icon or
something for users who would receive push notifications if you
messaged them. IT's not clear that feature was a good idea in any
case, but it certainly shouldn't be synced as presence data; it would
change >100x less often than the rest of presence and so should likely
be synced differently, maybe as a property on user. So it's best to
delete this prototype.

When quoting a message with fenced code blocks without a language,
we used to have ambiguity in which '```' fence terminates the quote.
This commit adds explicitly non-interfering fences, which fixes the
above issue as well as makes the raw message easier to quickly read.
Fixes#12446.
This commit includes a new `stream_post_policy` setting,
by replacing the `is_announcement_only` field from the Stream model,
which is done by mirroring the structure of the existing
`create_stream_policy`.
It includes the necessary schema and database migrations to migrate
the is_announcement_only boolean field to stream_post_policy,
a smallPositiveInteger field similar to many other settings.
This change is done to allow organization administrators to restrict

This flag affects page_params and the
payload you get back from POSTs to this
url:
users/me/presence
The flag does not yet affect the
presence events that get sent to a
client.
This is defensive code for the scenario that we
have a user_id in presence but not people. This is
unlikely to occur by the time that we actually render
the buddy list, which is the context for this code.
We have previously been reporting an error here via
the people code, but we add an additional warning.
Also, we filter the user_id from the result.

Previously the sender was not included in display_recipient when
a private message was locally echoed. This broke the copy conversation
link functionality, if the user try to copy the link immedeatly after
sending the message. This issue is present only during local echo.
This was fixed by including the recipient of the user during
local echo.

Edited the warning to clearly state that most members/most stream members
will be notified on using wildcard mentions, along with the specific
mention (e.g. @ALL, @everyone and @stream).
Did a separate check for all wildcard mentions in util.js and stored the
corresponding mention in wildcard_mention inside compose.js.
Fixes: #13636
For few settings like `waiting_period_threshold` it makes sense to have the
"value" attribute of option to have a value other than the actual setting
value because multiple settings are depending upon this dropdown, so
handling them in JS code makes more sense. But for many settings (which has
integer values), we have followed a wrong trend over the time of
representing every new dropdown with human-readable values and manually
handling them in JS Code, where it makes more sense to use actual setting
value. The result of which is code has become less concise, sensible and
less likely to be mistaken.
We now use vdom-ish techniques to track the
list items for the pm list. When we go to update
the list, we only re-render nodes whose data
has changed, with two exceptions:
- Obviously, the first time we do a full render.
- If the keys for the items have changed (i.e.
a new node has come in or the order has changed),
we just re-render the whole list.
If the keys are the same since the last re-render, we
only re-render individual items if their data has
changed.
Most of the new code is in these two modules:
- pm_list_dom.js
- vdom.js
We remove all of the code in pm_list.js that is
related to updating DOM with unread counts.
For presence updates, we are now *never*
re-rendering the whole list, since presence
updates only change individual line items and
don't affect the keys. Instead, we just update
any changed elements in place.
The main thing that makes this all work is the
`update` method in `vdom`, which is totally generic
and essentially does a few simple jobs:
- detect if keys are different
- just render the whole ul as needed
- for items that change, do the appropriate
jQuery to update the item in place
Note that this code seems to play nice with simplebar.
Also, this code continues to use templates to render
the individual list items.
FWIW this code isn't radically different than list_render,
but it's got some key differences:
- There are fewer bells and whistles in this code.
Some of the stuff that list_render does is overkill
for the PM list.
- This code detects data changes.
Note that the vdom scheme is agnostic about templates;
it simply requires the child nodes to provide a render
method. (This is similar to list_render, which is also
technically agnostic about rendering, but which also
does use templates in most cases.)
These fixes are somewhat related to #13605, but we
haven't gotten a solid repro on that issue, and
the scrolling issues there may be orthogonal to the
redraws. But having fewer moving parts here should
help, and we won't get the rug pulled out from under
us on every presence update.
There are two possible extensions to this that are
somewhat overlapping in nature, but can be done
one a time.
* We can do a deeper vdom approach here that
gets us away from templates, and just have
nodes write to an AST. I have this on another
branch, but it might be overkill.
* We can avoid some redraws by detecting where
keys are moving up and down. I'm not completely
sure we need it for the PM list.
If this gets merged, we may want to try similar
things for the stream list, which also does a fairly
complicated mixture of big-hammer re-renders and
surgical updates-in-place (with custom code).
BTW we have 100% line coverage for vdom.js.
Now that we have the type situation of having anchor support passing a
string, this is a much more natural way to implement
use_first_unread_anchor.
We still support the old interface to avoid breaking compatibility
with legacy versions of the mobile apps.
This makes the code more readable, by just passing the anchor through
without changing its field name back and forth.
There's no reason for this parameter to involve parsing and integer --
it should be a number in all incoming code paths.
The feature is used for editing stream descriptions as well, and in
any case, what's important is that it's a content-editable widget (aka
a form of input box).
We now give "slight smile" precedence over
"small airplane" if you type "sm".
More generally, we favor popularity over prefix
matches for emoji matches, as long as the popular
emoji matches on any of its pieces.
This extracts get_emoji_matcher and all the
functions it depended on, most of which were
in composebox_typeahead.js.
We also move remove_diacritics out of the people
module.
This is the first major step for #13728.
We used to put the user's email in a value, which was
redundant (we could find the value from
our parent's label) and brittle (would break
on email changes).
Now the DOM's a bit slimmer and more robust.
Also note that we now deal with user_ids, not emails,
in the call stack until we hit the "edge" and convert
to emails for the server.
We now only go the server if both of these
conditions are true:
- our message data seems incomplete for
the stream
- we haven't already fetched history
This function will make more sense when we start
tracking api calls that retrieve topic history.
The unit tests here are kinda duplicating what we
have in the stream_data tests. If we move the
function out of stream_data, we can kill off the
tests there, but for now I think a bit of duplicate
testing is fine here.
This is mostly for tactical reasons. It's hard to
get 100% test coverage on topic_list.js, but it
should be easy to get 100% test coverage on this
very important function.
I considered just moving this code into topic_data.js,
but it just didn't feel quite right. I feel like
this is a pretty core piece of code that's nice
to be by itself and not be near other complicated
code that does stuff like build widgets or talk
to servers. (And, again, it's not just the actual
code here, which is pretty small, it's the unit
tests, which are inherently verbose to exercise
all the edge cases.)
This test mostly tests how we glue everything
together, but I want to change that in an upcoming
commit.
Also, the data stuff that it tests is now better
covered by the test recent tests I added.
The only place we ever set active-sub-filter is
right after we build the template, so there is
no reason to have it be a separate step.
(I made a similar fix to pm_list recently, and
this helps set the stage for doing vdom-like
stuff.)
We may revisit this in the future, but similar to is:private, the
current Zulip user experience makes users expect that in the
is:mentioned view, they should really be able to mark messages as
read.
Further, the practice use case for not marking them as read is very
low, since it's rare for someone to have so many mentions that
revisiting the mentions view isn't sufficient to see everything that
needs their attention.
Previously, is_exactly() had already been repalced with can_bucket_by().
This commit removes is_exactly() and replaces its usage in our tests
with can_bucket_by().
