This mainly extracts a new module called
browser_history. It has much fewer dependencies
than hashchange.js, so any modules that just
need the smaller API from browser_history now
have fewer transitive dependencies.
Here are some details:
* Move is_overlay_hash to hash_util.
* Rename hashchange.update_browser_history to
brower_history.update
* Move go_to_location verbatim.
* Remove unused argument for exit_overlay.
* Introduce helper functions:
* old_hash()
* set_hash_before_overlay()
* save_old_hash()
We now have 100% line coverage on the extracted
code.
Previously we could navigate the user info popover on messages by
using the up/down arrow keys, but we could not use the enter key to
select an item, this commit fixes the bug.
Fixes: #17589.
TextField is used to allow users to set long stream + topic narrow
names in the urls.
We currently restrict users to only set "all_messages" and
"recent_topics" as narrows.
This commit achieves 3 things:
* Removes recent topics as the default view which loads when
hash is empty.
* Loads default_view when hash is empty.
* Loads default_view on pressing escape key when it is unhandled by
other present UI elements.
NOTE: After this commit loading zulip with an empty hash will
automatically set hash to default_view. Ideally, we'd just display
the default view without a hash, but that involves extra complexity.
One exception is when user is trying to load an overlay directly,
i.e. zulip is loaded with an overlay hash. In this case,
we render recent topics is background irrespective of default_view.
We consider this last detail to be a bug not important enough to block
adding this setting.
When user presses escape but there is no action that recent topics
can perform on it, it returns false.
The final state of focus is the focus on topics table. If the focus
is on table and not on RT search or filters, we return false to
indicate that the key was unhandled by recent topics.
This will allow escape to take user to another view if recent topics
is not the default view.
This fixes the bug where a user cannot type vim keys in the
general search box / user search / stream search,
since they are captured by recent topics.
The behaviour was flaky for stream search, but can be reproduced
consistently after previous commit fixing the popovers.any_active
output.
Go to Recent Topics on "#", no hash and "#recent_topics".
Go to Recent Topics as the last destination for escape key.
Map `a` key to All messages and change its hash to
`#all_messages`.
Recent Topics is no longer an overlay now, but note that it is
also not a typical messages narrow. It can reside between
an overlay and a Filter in the sense that it is dispalyed as
a typical Filter narrow but has properties of an Overlay.
Compose box is not visible in this view as it will be confusing
to many users and hence compose shortcuts have also been disabled.
Keyboard shortcuts that apply on messages have also been disabled.
The remaining shortcuts that apply to a narrow are still accessible
here.
This is a prep commit, which renames some variables
and functions involved in topic muting to include
the word "topic" in them.
This is done to have clarity when similar code
will be added as a part of the mute-user in
future commits.
