It should be very rare to discover new unread messages during a
message_fetch call. This can potentially happen due to races (fetching
just as a new message arrives), but it shouldn't be the common case.
Previously, we would trigger a full rerender of all UI displaying
unread messages every time a bulk message fetch operation returned
(including every time one narrowed), regardless of whether any actual
state had changed.
Fix this by actually checking if we discovered any new unread messages.
This also adds a comment noting a remaining performance bug we have in
this code path, namely fetching messages for a streams narrow will do
unnecessary work.
f0c680e9c0 introduced a call to
message_helper.process_new_message without first calling
message_store.set_message_flags on the message.
This resulted in it being possible as a race, when loading the Zulip
app to a stream/topic/near narrow, for a message to have the
`historical` flag be undefined due to not being initialized.
That invalid state, in turn, resulted in the message_list_view code
path for rendering the message feed incorrectly displaying additional
recipient bars around the message.
We could fix this by just calling message_store.set_message_booleans
in this code path. However, this bug exposes the fact that it's very
fragile to expect every code path to call that function before
message_helper.process_new_message.
So we instead fix this by moving message_store.set_message_booleans
inside message_helper.process_new_message.
One call point of concern in this change is maybe_add_narrow_messages,
which could theoretically reintroduce the double set_message_flags
bugs detailed in 9729b1a4ad. However, I
believe that to not be possible, because that call should never
experience a cache miss.
The other existing code paths were already calling
set_message_booleans immediately before
message_helper.process_new_message. They are still changing here, in
that we now do a cache lookup before attempting to call
set_message_booleans. Because the message booleans do not affect the
cache lookup and the local message object is discarded in case of a
cache hit, this should have no functional impact.
Because I found the existing comment at that call site confusing and
almost proposed removing it as pointless, extend the block comment to
explicitly mention that the purpose is refreshing our object.
Fixes#21503.
We split recent_topics module into recent_topics_(ui + data + util).
This allows us to reduce cyclical dependencies which were
created due to large list of imports in recent topics. Also, this
refactor on its own makes sense.
These mock objects did not buy any ease in testing, as
evident from the fact that this commit hardly contains
any changes to the tests themselves.
This commit also removes some unnecessary `filter: undefined`,
parameters sent to MessageList constructor.
This data structure has never been one that we actually render into
the DOM; instead, its role is to support clicking into view that
contain muted streams and topics quickly.
This downgrade makes that situation much more explicit, and is also
useful refactoring to help simpify the upcoming changes in #16746.

We move the message_store.add_message_metadata function
(and all its dependencies) into a new module called
message_helper and rename the function to process_new_message.
(It does a bit more than adding message metadata, such
as updating our message store.)
We also have a "protected" interface now in message_store,
so that message_helper can access the message store:
update_message_cache
get_cached_message
Because update_message_cache is identical to
the former create_mock_message, we just renamed it
in the tests.
Most callers should use these functions:
message_helper.process_new_message (setting)
message_store.get (getting)
It's slightly annoying that the setter interface
is in a different module than the getter interface,
but that's how you break a bunch of dependencies.
We also extract the tiny message_user_ids class:
user_ids()
add_user_ids()
All the code moves here are pretty trivial, and
the code that was moved maintains 100% line
coverage.
The module name `message_helper` is not ideal, but it's a single
function and it'll save time to just do the topology change now and
leave thinking through the right name to later.
Use fully resolvable request paths because we need to be able to refer
to third party modules, and to increase uniformity and explicitness.

This is a deceptively ugly diff. It makes
the actual code way more tidy.
I basically inlined some calls to mock_module
and put some statements in lexical order.
We now just use a module._load hook to inject
stubs into our code.
For conversion purposes I temporarily maintain
the API of rewiremock, apart from the enable/disable
pieces, but I will make a better wrapper in an
upcoming commit.
We can detect when rewiremock is called after
zrequire now, and I fix all the violations in
this commit, mostly by using override.
We can also detect when a mock is needlessly
created, and I fix all the violations in this
commit.
The one minor nuisance that this commit introduces
is that you can only stub out modules in the Zulip
source tree, which is now static/js. This should
not really be a problem--there are usually better
techniques to deal with third party depenencies.
In the prior commit I show a typical workaround,
which is to create a one-line wrapper in your
test code. It's often the case that you can simply
use override(), as well.
In passing I kill off `reset_modules`, and I
eliminated the second argument to zrequire,
which dates back to pre-es6 days.
Found by running the tests after
sed -i 's/\.with(/.toBeUsed().with(/g' frontend_tests/node_tests/*.js

We no longer export make_zjquery().
We now instead have a singleton zjquery instance
that we attach to global.$ in index.js.
We call $.clear_all_elements() before each module.
(We will soon get even more aggressive about doing
it in run_test.)
Test functions can still override $ with set_global.
A good example of this is copy_and_paste using the
real jquery module.
We no longer exempt $ as a global variable, so
test modules that use the zjquery $ need to do:
const $ = require("../zjsunit/zjquery");
We still need to write to these globals with set_global because the
code being tested reads from them, but the tests themselves should
never need to read from them.

In commit ebea17b9a6,
we added an extra fetch to get accurate data for the top
items in recent topics table.
But the `narrow` parameter wasn't passed to the endpoint,
this resulted in fetching the user's overall message
history including the muted streams/topics which aren't
required by the recent topics table.
`operators` can be replaced as we set the same value for
the `narrow_state` module and the narrowed message list's
filter, when activating the narrow.
