This handler adds a neat little effect whereby hovering over the
clickable region to open the navbar triggers the search_icon hover
effect and is a neat little visual cue about what happens onClick.
The previous implementation was slightly messy because it fetched the
color and applied it via ".css(". This commit cleans it up by creating
and using the class "search_icon_hover_highlight" instead. We also
make the selectors more specific, ensuring they target children of
"#tab_bar", this was so because it was reasonable to expect someone to
define eg `search_closed` elsewhere and we wanted to prevent bugs when
that happened.
The page_params.timezone feature is perhaps a misfeature, but
importantly it's not what is used to display the time in the message
feed (it's mainly used to show others your timezone).
Given that reality, we shouldn't use it for a feature whose whole
purpose is to display the time using the same timezone we use in the
message feed.
Fixes#15790.
Delete stored topic data in `recent_senders` and `recent_topics`
about the message's topics and re-render them. The process is similar
to topic editing. See `recent_senders.process_topic_edit` for
logical details.
We have changed our all instances of list_render to use
simplebar and thus, we will now use simplebar container
to track scroll event for all the lists created by
list_render.
This fixes the bug of new subscribers not rendering on
scrolling at the end of subscriber list in stream settings
and similar bug in some other lists also.
This commit also removes scroll_util.get_list_scrolling_container
function as this is no longer used.
Fixes#15637.
We do not need to use list_render for displaying list of streams specific
notification settings, as this is not scrollable and we do not provide
option to sort or filter this list as well.
After this change, all our list_render instances will be using simplebar
and we can change the code accordingly to fix the behaviour of scrolling.
jQuery's fadeOut() sets display: none using inline CSS.
This was overriden by .alert-notification since it used !important
to override the display: block set in loading.js. Removing the latter
allows us to remove the !important, and doesn't seem to break anything.
Fixes#15759.
This reverts commit 63643c9d9d.
As the commit mentions, it makes a UI change for legacy search which
has largely been considered a regression. We've been running with
this reverted in zulip.com essentially since it was first merged.
Apparently, our scrollbar logic crashed with an invalid URL fragment
(hash), which resulted in initialization not completing and thus the
logic failing.
In my view the root issue here is that we're not doing a good job of
catching JavaScript exceptions in portico pages.
Fixes#15706.
In 42f20e81be I fixed an edge case but
also accidentally made clicking on reactions open the compose box.
This commit adds back the e.stopPropagation(); and explicitly hides the
emoji picker popover, to address the inconsistency fixed in the previous
commit.
Throughout the codebase we use <i> tag for icons.
This commit will add <i> tag inside the starred message
div and fa classes are now used with this <i> tag.
The starred message div is now consistent with other
message_controls divs.
Tweaked by tabbott to use the name star_container for better
readability.
Prior to commit eb4a2b9d4e the center
area of the navbar was based on a structure that appended crumbs or
"tabs" as <li>s, forming a tab_bar and a tab_list.
However, in eb4a2b9d4e we apply a new
style and structure to the navbar which lets go of the convention of
tabs. Hence, we'd like to purge the tab_bar and tab_list labels from
our code base.
It would have been nicer if we could simply purge tab_bar from the
codebase and rename "#tab_list" so that we have an anchor and wrapper
structure in the html, but dropping the float: left on tab_bar causes
some confusing problems such as causing the horizontal border to
disappear and the search_box to shift out of its intended position and
so its simpler to get rid of tab_list from our code base first.
This commit:
- Removes the #tab_list wrapper div from tab_bar.hbs.
- Removes any #tab_list selectors from night_mode.scss so that they
simply target based on "#tab_bar" instead of "#tab_bar #tab_list".
- Removes tab_list selectors from zulip.scss, so that #tab_list
attributes now apply to the #tab_bar, in the process we drop the
duplicated width property and reorder the attributes.
- Replaces all mention of #tab_list with #tab_bar in JS files.
Previously, the navbar sub count would not live update as users
subscribed or unsubscribed, this commit adds the relevant calls in
stream events.
It would have been better to just have a single call within
server_events_dispatch but it seems difficult due to the way of
mark_subscribed and mark_unsubscribed are structured.
stream_events.mark_unsubscribed conditionally calls
subs.update_settings_for_unsubscribed which calls
subs.rerender_subscriptions_settings and as such handles the update
for the subscriptions modal on its own. Hence, we simply rely on the
stream_data.update_calculated_fields to ensure the subscriber counts
are updated and make a call to
tab_bar.maybe_rerender_title_area_for_stream(sub).
stream_events.mark_subscribed is similar.
Previously, we had the lines from this block being duplicated in all
the stream update paths, which is a little brittle.
Hence, in this commit, we extract it out with a comment explaining
what it does and call it in all the duplicated spots.
We use narrow_state.stream_sub instead of narrow_state.stream to directly
get the sub object instead of stream name, while subscribing to a stream
from the stream narrow.
This commit changes stream_data.is_user_subscribed to use stream id
instead of stream name.
We are using stream ids so that we can avoid bugs related to live
update after stream rename.
We have logic in place to update the ui for re-sending messages
on recieving the acknowledgement from the server on that API call.
However, if the acknowledgement is recieved through the get events
request before the `on_success` of `resend_message`, the message
gets re-rendered allowing the failed message actions to be clickable.
Now, we update the ".message_failed" ui for both cases. This helps
in preventing the "Trying to get local_id from row that has reified
message id" exception.
Fixes#15351.
fadeTo is not a good method to hide elements since it sets
opacity to 0 in which the element still can consume space and
be clickable. We set it's display to None using fadeOut method.
Also, allow this method to be called via ui_report.error.
The stream notification settings checkboxes were not checked
even when the notifications were turned on for the stream.
This was happening because we were passing stream name to
receives_notifications instead of stream id.
This commit fixes the bug by passing stream id to
receives_notifications. This change should have been done
in f3604fb while refactoring receives_notifications to use
stream id instead of name.
As a consequence of commit 1113589b9d the backspace key and some other
keys did not respond if the search yielded no results.
This change fixes that bug.
This is useful for the emoji-picker where holding down shift lets you
select multiple emojis. Otherwise when selecting multiple emojis with
the keyboard shortcuts you would need to release shift everytime you
wanted to navigate with the arrow keys.
Previously clicking on an existing message reaction (outside of the
emoji picker) while having the emoji picker open, removed the reaction
without updating the highlighting of the reacted emoji in the emoji
picker.
The emoji picker already is already closed when clicking outside.
The message reaction click handler however previously stopped the event
propagation, leaving the picker open, allowing the inconsistency.
There is a bug when clicking on the stream row in stream settings page
subscribes/unsubscribes the user from stream. The ideal behaviour
should be that user should be subscribed/unsubscribed only
when user clicks on tick icon. The buggy behaviour is visible only after
clicking the tick icon once.
This is because clicking on tick is adding sub_unsub_button class to the
stream row, while it should be added only to the ".check" element to
re-enable the button to handle requests.
This commit fixes the bug by adding the "sub_unsub_button" class to
".check" element only and not to the stream row and same change
is done for removing the "sub_unsub_button" class also.
Subscribe/Unsubscribe button in the right section of stream settings
page is not working because the target element in click handler was
changed to 'check.sub_unsub_button' in c234b4f2 and the button in
the right section with class 'sub_unsub_button' also uses the same
click handler.
This commit reverts c234b4f2 and the bug of subscribing/unsubscribing
the user by clicking on stream row in the stream settings page, which
c234b4f2 intended to fix will be fixed in next commit.
As we add more features where rendered_markdown.update_elements does
something useful, it'll become important to run this code everywhere
we render markdown in the DOM.
One can see in this case that we had actually copied one hunk of
rendered_markdown.update_elements years ago, before we extracted it as
an independent function; we get to delete that copy.
Fixes#15500.
We do not show the warning while sending messages to announce
stream if there is a wildcard mention in the message (i.e.
when wildcard_mention != null)
There are two cases where we should ideally show the warning
but we don't-
- When there is no wildcard mention in the message and
wildcard_mention is set to undefined (initial value of
wildcard_mention).
This is because "wildcard_mention != null" returns true for
this case and thus the warning is not shown, assuming the
message to have wildcard mention.
- When previous message had a wildcard mention and now a message
is being sent with no wildcard mention.
This is because the condition "wildcard_mention != null" is
checked with the previous value of wildcard_mention and not
with the value according to current message content, and thus
the warning is not shown, assuming the message to have wildcard
mention.
This commit changes the code to set wildcard_mention from the
latest message content before performing other validations and
thus solves the problems described above.
This particular commit has been a long time coming. For reference,
!avatar(email) was an undocumented syntax that simply rendered an
inline 50px avatar for a user in a message, essentially allowing
you to create a user pill like:
`!avatar(alice@example.com) Alice: hey!`
---
Reimplementation
If we decide to reimplement this or a similar feature in the future,
we could use something like `<avatar:userid>` syntax which is more
in line with creating links in markdown. Even then, it would not be
a good idea to add this instead of supporting inline images directly.
Since any usecases of such a syntax are in automation, we do not need
to make it userfriendly and something like the following is a better
implementation that doesn't need a custom syntax:
`![avatar for Alice](/avatar/1234?s=50) Alice: hey!`
---
History
We initially added this syntax back in 2012 and it was 'deprecated'
from the get go. Here's what the original commit had to say about
the new syntax:
> We'll use this internally for the commit bot. We might eventually
> disable it for external users.
We eventually did start using this for our github integrations in 2013
but since then, those integrations have been neglected in favor of
our GitHub webhooks which do not use this syntax.
When we copied `!gravatar` to add the `!avatar` syntax, we also noted
that we want to deprecate the `!gravatar` syntax entirely - in 2013!
Since then, we haven't advertised either of these syntaxes anywhere
in our docs, and the only two places where this syntax remains is
our game bots that could easily do without these, and the git commit
integration that we have deprecated anyway.
We do not have any evidence of someone asking about this syntax on
chat.zulip.org when developing an integration and rightfully so- only
the people who work on Zulip (and specifically, markdown) are likely
to stumble upon it and try it out.
This is also the only peice of code due to which we had to look up
emails -> userid mapping in our backend markdown. By removing this,
we entirely remove the backend markdown's dependency on user emails
to render messages.

Previously, the function update_table_stream_color did not update the
color of the date_row when it appeared within a topic. This was
incorrect because it meant that a small piece of the border to the
left of the message box would be left to the previous color when the
stream color was updated. This commit resolves the issue by adding an
update.
Fixes#15197.
To make the typeahead code more readable, we extract this function to
timerender. We also improve the logic to be more readable, and add tests
to confirm its validity.
We have moved our invalid timestamp logic to use timestamp-error class,
however, if there are any valid outputs by the backend markdown that
the frontend considers invalid, we want to debug them. This commit
adds tooling to ensure we log those error messages.
We had been using !time() syntax for timestamps so far. Since its
an unreleased feature, we can make changes without affecting many
people.
Fixes#15442.
This commit fixes a bug where clicking on a stream row on the left
in the subscriptions table called the ".stream-row" as well as the
".sub_unsub_button" click events in `stream_edit.js`.
This caused the stream subscription to toggle everytime the row was
clicked. Also, this bug is only observed if the ".sub_unsub_button"
had been clicked first.
The previous element passed was a simplebar container which calculated
the incorrect height, thus `scroll_util.scroll_element_into_container`
had no effect.
There is a bug and race issue that occurs when a message is selected
while we are in the process of reifying a locally echoed message,
raising the "Selected message id not in MessageList" error.
The code flow to get the exception is as follows:
* A user sends a message to the current narrow we are in.
* Before the new message event is received, we sent a message to
the same message list which renders it with a locally echoed id.
* One of the ways of getting the exception is to already have the
locally sent message selected, before receiving an acknowledgment
from the server.
* Thus the Message List Data's `selected_id` now points to the new
message id. The exception is raised on entering the `was_selected`
if block inside `message_list_view` which tries to re-select the
message.
Updating the `_rerender_message` code for this special case won't fix
the entire bug because, as mentioned above there are other ways of
getting the exception:
Ideally, after all our synchronous work (`echo.process_from_server`)
has completed we would expect the re-order and re-render work of the
`change_message_id` would occur first, due to the timer of the
setTimeout being set to 0.
However as evident from the race condition existing, this isn't always
the case. `change_message_id` function is responsible for 3 things:
updation, re-ordering and re-rendering.
The first one which is responsible for updating the message list's
local cache, occurs synchronously while for the latter two, they both
occur asynchronously.
Before the setTimeout which is responsible for the latter two actions,
is encountered the user might select the message by clicking or more
commonly by scrolling, which causes this message selection event to be
ahead of the setTimeout in the callback queue.
During this time frame, our race condition takes place.
And even though the message id is updated it's Message List is not
in the correct sort order, which leads to `closest_id` !== `id` in
`MessageList_select_id` being true and raising the exception.
Now, we only asynchronously call the re_render function, to guarantee
the data is always correct and UI updates should be done at the end.
Extended by tabbott to comment the setTimeout call.
Fixes#15346.
We change validate_stream_message to check the existence of stream from
the stream name in compose box early and we then pass stream_id or the
obtained sub objects accordingly to other validate functions.
Passing stream_id or sub objects to these functions, enables us to use
stream_id instead of stream name in stream_data.get_subscriber_count.
stream_data.get_stream_post_policy is also removed as we only used it in
validate_stream_message_policy, but we do not need it now as we can get
stream_post_policy directly from sub object obtained by early check of
valid stream name.
This commits add data-stream-id attribute to the compose_invite_users
template. This helps in avoiding the error that occured if user
clicked the link after renaming of stream.
As a result of above changes, the checks for empty and invalid stream
name in compose box are done in warn_if_mentioning_unsubscribed_user
function instead of needs_subscribe_warning function.
If a channel has a thousand subscribers this commit results in the count
being displayed with a thousands separator, e.g. with English locale you
get 1,000 instead of 1000.
Since we migrated to `image_upload_widget.hbs`
for upload widget's so we have to access those widget's elements
according to the `image_upload_widget.hbs` new CSS class names.
We need to access delete button element with
`#user-avatar-upload-widget .settings-page-delete-button`
not with old CSS id `#user_avatar_delete_button`.
While highlights was the only case where this came up in the normal
message feed, we might in the future have other elements inside a
link, and we don't want those to ever eat the click.
I don't think there's a real performance concern here; fundamentally,
this is the handler for the user clicking, it can traverse a few DOM
elements.
Adds support for clicking anywhere on the header (except in a link) to
expand a spoiler block. Also fixes jumpy animation glitch on spoiler
collapse.

When the keyboard focus is not on search box and user clicks on
search box, the focus will go move away from the search box to
the `current_focus_elem` on any rerender. To avoid that, we
move `current_focus_elem` to the search box when user clicks on it.
Since we had extracted `image_upload_widget.hbs` HTML for
image upload widget's like user avatar, realm logo, realm icon
we can also extract `image_upload_widget.scss` SCSS file
from settings.scss file with all the CSS related
to image upload widget's.
This change will also help us to keep `settings.scss` cleaner.
Escape all the possible special characters.
We replaced \b with (?:^|\s) since it matches word boundries including
special characters.
Pasted relevant stackoverflow links which expain them properly.
This commit removes unnecessary code for adding and removing
"can_edit" class from emoji-settings element. This class is
unnecessary and is not used for styling or for any other purpose.
This commit removes the ".not(can-edit)" selector filter from
insert_tip_box. We do not require this selector filter because
this class is only used for emoji-settings and we already do not
prepend tip in emoji-settings page from this function and we handle
it separately.
As this class is only used for this purpose we can also remove this
class from emoji_settings_admin.hbs.
The organization_settings_tip is not visible if organization settings
overlay is opened with any section other than organization profile,
settings and permissions. This is because insert_tip_box is called from
settings_org.build_page, which is called only when we open any of the
above three sections after opening the overlay and not others.
We should call insert_tip_box function from admin.build_page instead
of settings_org.build_page because we need to insert the admin tips
each time the organization settings overlay is opened, irrespective
of the section which opens first.
The function insert_tip_box is moved to admin.js from settings_org.js,
because settings_org.js file handles the organization profile,
settings and permissions page only, while we display the tips in many
other sections including bots, custom emoji, etc.
Thus, it makes sense to move insert_tip_box function to admin.js, which
renders the complete organization settings overlay using render_admin_tab.
We send user_id of the referrer instead of email in the invites dict.
Sending user_ids is more robust, as those are an immutable reference
to a user, rather than something that can change with time.
Updates to the webapp UI to display the inviters for more convenient
inspection will come in a future commit.
This commit removes "realm_message_retention_days === null" check from
the conditionals, as we had updated the backend to replace NULL value
with -1 in 7a03e2a.
This commit fixes the UI for stream message retention days to allow
only owners to set or update the setting.
We hide the setting for non-owners in the stream creation form and
disable it in the stream_privacy_modal.
Fixes a part of #15558.
* Don't annoyingly open the first section when switching
between the Settings and Organization tabs.
* Don't highlight currently active section in the settings list
(we don't display the currently active section in the mobile settings
list so it isn't actually active).
* Remove nearly invisible and buggy no-border logic.
This commit removes invited_as_values map in settings_invites.js.
This object has been removed to avoid duplication as we already
have role values in settings_config.js.
A similar map is created from settings_config.user_role_values
in settings_config.js and is used to populate invited_as_text
for invites.
This commit changes the PreregistrationUser.invite_as dict to have
same set of values as we have for UserProfile.role.
This also adds a data migration to update the already exisiting
PreregistrationUser and MultiuseInvite objects.
We leverage the composebox typeaheads to show flatpickr to pick dates
and times for the !time syntax.
We use moment.js to try and parse the time from current token. If we
are successful, we initialize flatpickr with the parsed time, else we
default to using the current time.
Currently we display -1 in input box of id_realm_message_retention_days
when realm_message_retention_days is -1, which isn't user friendly.
Displaying the input box as empty is more intuitive.
And if the user tries to submit an empty input box we throw invalid JSON
error that isn't user friendly either, so fixed that too. In the ideal
case, we shouldn't send the request at first place to the backend when we
don't have any input.
Currently, we use -1 as the Realm.message_retention_days value to retain
message forever unless specified at stream level for a particular stream,
that is, no policy set at the realm level. But this is incoherent with what
we use for Stream.message_retention_days where -1 means
> disable retention policy for this stream unconditionally
that can be confusing from an API standpoint.
So instead of trying some hack to reset the value to NULL or using some
other value like -2 for RETAIN_MESSAGE_FOREVER and use that for API. It is
much more intuitive to use a string like 'forever' that can be mapped to
RETAIN_MESSAGE_FOREVER at the backend. And this is similar to what we use
for streams settings as well.
`get_input_element_value()` function is more reliable to detect the input
element type and extract it's value. But the current way of setting the
value of input elements relies on first checking the `property_value` type.
Which is fine, but for the cases when the property value is null, and we
want to set element value as empty, this method will throw an error as it's
unable to detect the appropriate element type. This new function
`set_input_element_value` first rely on property value and then use
`setting-widget-type` as a fallback.
This fixes the change detection of org settings input elements. Luckily,
this regression didn't break our populate_data_for_request and that's also
why this didn't come to notice.
In 5200598a31, we introduced a new
client capability that can be used to avoid unreasonable network
bandwidth consumed sending avatar URLs of long term idle users in
organizations with 10,000s members.
This commit enables this feature and adds support for it to the web
client.
If the `load_messages_for_narrow` function tried to fetch messages with
a floating point anchor (locally echoed message id) we get a 400 error.
The logic to remove the rounding of the anchor parameter was done in
commit bf2f36e6b4, as it would always be
an integer in all incoming code paths.
However, since then we have updated the GET /messages API, to also allow
strings as the anchor parameter and this value's parsing is done in the
backend.
Fixes#15497.
We update the logic for displaying the "message is outside current
narrow" notice, by comparing whether the message the client sent can
be appended to the current narrow's filter or not (this results in us
correctly falling through to reporting the user needs to scroll down).
This commit changes stream_data.create_sub_from_server_data to use
stream id, instead of stream name, for checking whether subscription
already exists or not. We are using stream ids so that we can avoid
bugs related to live update after stream rename.
This commit changes would_receive_message and want_normal_display
functions in compose_fade.js to use stream id, instead of stream
name, to get sub object. We are using stream ids so that we can
avoid bugs related to live update after stream rename.
This commit changes populate_group_for_message_container function to
use stream id to get sub object, instead of stream name.
We already have stream id from message object, so we can easily
use it to fetch sub. We are using stream ids so that we can
avoid bugs related to live update after stream rename.
This commit changes stream_data.remove_subscriber to use stream id
instead of stream name. We are using stream ids so that we can
avoid bugs related to live update after stream rename.
Thsi commit changes stream_data.add_subscriber to use stream_id
instead of stream name. We are using stream ids so that we can
avoid bugs related to live update after stream rename.
This commit removes stream_edit.rerender function. We directly
call subs.rerender_subscriptions_settings directly from
server_events_dispatch.js, which was the only caller of rerender
function, as we already have sub object.
We are using stream ids so that we can avoid bugs related to live
update after stream rename.
We can use get_sub_by_id instead of get_sub to get the stream info,
as we already have stream id from the message object. We are using
stream ids so that we can avoid bugs related to live update after
stream rename.
This commit changes receives_notifications function to use
stream_ids instead of stream names. We are using stream ids so
that we can avoid bugs related to live update after stream rename.
Prior to this commit has:link, has:attachment, has:image
filter couldn't be applied locally and deferred filtering to
web server. This commits make sure client filters all messages
it can instead of completely deferring to the server and hence
improve speed.
A tradeoff is also made to turn off local echo for has: narrows
as messages with link sent to has:link narrow were locally echoing
to another narrow and not appearing in the active has:link narrow.
Fixes: #6186.
With this implementation of the feature of the automatic theme
detection, we make the following changes in the backend, frontend and
documentation.
This replaces the previous night_mode boolean with an enum, with the
default value being to use the prefers-color-scheme feature of the
operating system to determine which theme to use.

We can now invite new users as realm owners. We restrict only
owners to invite new users as owners both for single invite
and multiuse invite link. Also, only owners can revoke or resend
owner invitations.
Add arrow key navigation support for recent topics.
Simple jquery is used to allow navigation for filter buttons,
a grid system is used for navigation inside table.
This commit corrects the message shown when we click the add button
for subscribing users to stream with empty input.
We show 'No user to subscribe.' as the message when trying to add
subscribers with empty input.
Fixes#15450.
This improves the logic and fixes the bug where the href was calculated
based on the current URL and not the filter of the current message list.
We now add the '/streams/public/' operator at the start of the operators,
similar to how it is represented in all other cases.
Fixes#15405
This commit removes the click handler used for
'empty_feed_sub_unsub' class.
This class was used only in home.html and was replaced
by 'stream_sub_unsub_button' in 576be51.
This reverts part of b0d632577f.
The problem was that multiple queries were combined as a single
search pill. And since we create the pills then narrow / search,
we added a comma seperator between them for the typeahead lookups
as required by the logic in `input_pill.js`.
This however introduced a new bug where the search suggestions
were incorrect as the typeahead lookup table wasn't updated, so
every time an item from the type ahead was selected it updated
the input string with an invalid operator.
Thus to resolve the first problem, we follow a simpler approach
by extracting all operators from the search string using our
`Filter.parse` logic and next add the pills, one by one.
Whenever a search pill is selected or deleted by a click the navbar
gets rendered as the searchbox loses focus. This allows the user to
be able to continue editing the search query without having to refocus
the searchbox.
A main change is that we now display the navbar if the search box
is not focused. This was already present in the search pills version
but adding it to the legacy version is an improvement.
We sufficiently increase the timeout so that the pills are actually
deleted. This was required when `filter.is_common_narrow()` is true,
as then only we render the narrow description and close the search bar.
This commit also matches another behaviour of the legacy search.
i.e. We narrow every time a search suggestion is clicked.
The now redundant "focusin" and "focusout" event handler tests are
also removed.
Two things were broken here:
* we were using name(s) instead of id(s)
* we were always sending lists that only
had one element
Now we just send "stream_id" instead of "subscriptions".
If anything, we should start sending a list of users
instead of a list of streams. For example, see
the code below:
if peer_user_ids:
for new_user_id in new_user_ids:
event = dict(type="subscription", op="peer_add",
stream_id=stream.id,
user_id=new_user_id)
send_event(realm, event, peer_user_ids)
Note that this only affects the webapp, as mobile/ZT
don't use this.
We recently removed an API call for fetching user list for our
Settings>Users/Deactivated panels, which introduced a bug where
we rendered the users table before last active information is
processed by the frontend.
This commit makes us process presence before rendering our settings
panels. We move the presence init above because we need to initialize
settings_sections before hashchange.
Fixes#15453.
When the user clicks a button that opens a modal, and if we don't break off
the corresponding click event. This condition in the global click handler
will become true and enables all mouse events outside modal.
```js
$(document).on('click', function (e) {
...
// If user clicks outside an active modal
if ($('.modal.in').has(e.target).length === 0) {
// Enable mouse events for the background as the modal closes
$('.overlay.show').attr("style", null);
}
```

This commit adds message retention policy details in the subscription_type
text below the stream description.
We do not show any text when realm-level settings is set to forever and
stream-level is set to either forever or realm_default.
This commit adds frontend support for setting and updating message
retention days of a stream from stream settings.
Message retention days can be changed from stream privacy modal of the
stream and can be set from stream_creation_form while creating streams.
Only admins can create streams with message_retention_days value other
than realm_default.
This commit also contains relevant changes to docs.
This commits adds the code for live update of stream_post_policy in
subscription_type text in stream settings.
This is done by passing stream_data.stream_post_policy_values to the
template data, which were not passed previously and the if conditions
were not evaluated correctly.
Previously, we had implemented:
<span class="timestamp" data-timestamp="unix time">Original text</span>
The new syntax is:
<time timestamp="ISO 8601 string">Original text</time>
<span class="timestamp-error">Invalid time format: Original text</span>
Since python and JS interpretations of the ISO format are very
slightly different, we force both of them to drop milliseconds
and use 'Z' instead of '+00:00' to represent that the string is
in UTC. The resultant strings look like: 2011-04-11T10:20:30Z.
Fixes#15431.
There is apparently some way to have two instances
of `.emoji-popover-emoji-map`, although I can't
reproduce it.
This causes an `expectOne` check to fail fairly
deep in the stack.
Now we report it more directly.
This commit and a few previous ones mostly
address #15348 by trying to either a) not
depending on having a single instance of
the popover or b) making it more explicit
in cases where do expect that invariant.
Fixes#15348
This is just a pure refactor for now, but
we may want to modify this to more precisely
determine the active map (in case multiple
pickers are open for some reason).
This is clearly a better home for it, since message_scroll.js is the
only place that reads it, and also lets us provide a clearer name for
the functionality.
Since we are no longer using the "pointer" value sent in
page_params.pointer for anything, there's no value in continuing to
send it from the server to the client.
The remaining code in pointer.js is logic managing state for the
currently selected message.
Since the pointer is no longer used to set the browser's position, we
no longer need this complex code to send updates to the server during
the bankruptcy flow.
It's crazy that we need to do this; one would think that Electron apps
whose sole purpose is to be used with multiple team chat tools would
at least implement the standard desktop notification API correctly.
But it seems worth making this tactical change to prevent every
desktop notification throwing a traceback on those platforms, which if
nothing else results in a lot of error spam.
Fixes#15103.
This was broken when moving the code being called to another file.
This exception caused a pretty weird/nasty bug by interrupting the
message_fetch response handler before it finished updating the
fetch_status data strutures. The end result was that in views where
the "history limited notice" was displayed, local echo would be broken
a confusing notice would be displayed.
In rare situations we would get tracebacks from
list_cursor on the line that I changed here. We
went the entire month of May without a traceback
here, and I can't reproduce the problem.
This is a pretty clear fix, though, and it will
hopefully lead to a more enlightening symptom.
The likely scenario here is that you use `q` to
navigate the stream list and then unsubscribe.
I tested that and couldn't get a traceback,
but I do think the traceback indicates some
possible issues.
The behavior I saw when I did this
appeared to be mostly harmless.
When I deleted a row (by unsubscribing), the code
seemed to effectively disable the cursor. It's
possible we should go to the next row or fully disable
the search.
I opened #15439 to follow up on this and other
cursor-related issues.
The stream_events tests were kinda messy, but
I mostly just consolidated a few sections of
code so that we didn't have to keep
re-stubbing the same functions.
For the actual code, I extracted add_sidebar_row
and then removed the unnecessarily complicated
jQuery trigger mechanisms.
This merges the `exports.get_search_result_legacy` and
`exports.get_search_result` function.
The key differences between the two code paths are as follows:
* We only want to generate suggestions for the queries which
the user is typing or can edit.
For the legacy version, suggestions are displayed for the
entire search string in the searchbox. (`all_operators`)
For the pills enabled version, suggestions are displayed
only for the input which hasn't been converted to pills.
(`query_operators`)
`all_operators` = `base_query_operators` + " " + `query_operators`.
trim is added at the end just to handle the legacy case
where we pass the `base_query` as ''.
* It is not possible to detect whether the user wants to
continue typing in the legacy version. However if the
the searchbox is still focused even after pill creation
we can assume the user still wants to continue typing.
To handle this we push an empty term as the `last` operator.
This is possible since the previous queries have been
completely entered as evident from it's generated pill.
* When using the legacy version, `search_operators` are
the same as `all_operators`, as mentioned in point 1.
In the pills enabled version we perform most of the
computations from the `query_operators`, but we do
require all `all_operators`, only for filtering the last
query's suggestion.
* And there is just one block unique to the legacy search
system. More details are mentioned in the comments of that
block.
We also refactor both the search suggestions node tests,
mainly to make them similar and easier to detect differences
when we switch over to the new version.
Previously we narrowed every time a search pill was created or deleted.
This commit allows the user to be able to continue typing without the
lag of narrowing.
This behaviour matches with the legacy version, whose code path remains
unchanged.
Under the search pills paradigm it is more natural for the
user to add pills and still continue typing.
Previously everytime a pills gets added the narrow activates
(this is still the case) and then the user had to refocus the
searchbox the continue typing the remaining search query.
The 2 function calls of `open_search_bar_and_close_narrow_description`
was removed from the 2 event handlers since it was called again, from
the `search.initiate_search`.
The "focusin" event was redundant since there are multiple other event
handlers (like the `tab_bar` or `hotkeys`) for this purpose, and all
of them call the `search.initiate_search` function.
The only change made here is the renaming of `operators` variable
to `search_operators`.
That is mostly evident from the fact that we do not need to
make any changes to `node_tests/search_suggestion_legacy.js`.
As mentioned in the previous commit, we make this change
to get a minimal diff between the legacy and search pills
enabled version.
The only changes made here is the renaming of `query_operators`
variable to `search_operators`.
That is mostly evident from the fact that we do not need to
make any changes to `node_tests/search_suggestion.js`.
This will be helpful when we combine this function with it's
legacy function. As most of the logical decisions to generate
the result is based on the `query_operators` variable for the
search pills enabled version and the `operators` variable for
the legacy search version.
This fixes one of our oldest important user experience issues, namely
that if you never visit the home view, the Zulip webapp would often
load "deep in the past" because the pointer had not advanced.
Fixes#1529.
When fetching older/new messages, we used to resort to the pointer
to act as anchor when message list was empty.
This appears to be an impossible case, as
`fetch_status.can_load_newer_messages`
should be false in this case and user cannot be scrolling an
empty message_list in the first case.
Hence, we raise a fatal error to inform user of the same.
Now we can use common HTML image upload widget template
`image_upload_widget.hbs` for realm day/night logo and
we should access those day/night logo elements using
e.g., "#realm-day/night-logo-upload-widget .realm-logo-elements".
since we use image_upload_widget.hbs for realm day/night logo upload
widget we need to extract CSS for realm day/night logo and
place them separately under `#realm-day-logo-upload-widget`
and `#realm-day-logo-upload-widget` css id.
Now we can use common HTML image upload widget template
`image_upload_widget.hbs` for realm icon. we can access icon
element using "#realm-icon-upload-widget .realm-icon-elements".
also we need to extract CSS for realm icon and place them
separately under `#realm-icon-upload-widget` css id.
Messages are automatically marked read when all the messages in
the current narrow are visible. While this is handy, this is
should not happen when any of the overlays are open.
Previously, in `make_tab_data()` we were using the stream name,
which we got from the filter, to call `stream_data.get_sub_by_name()`.
This commit switches to just using `filter._sub`, which is simpler and
better.
Previously, this function relied on the return value of
`filter.get_icon()` which made it brittle.
Directly using the properties of the filter and sub object makes this
more explicit about the intentions and robust.
In commit 4f6377d493 we added
`_stream_params` as a way of storing attributes such as stream name
and stream privacy, this involved adding a few calls within functions
that updated these values (in order to maintain consistency).
This commit replaces `_stream_params` with an always consistent `_sub`
object and removes unnecessary `_stream_params` related code. Once the
`_sub` object is available, calls to `stream_data` may be considered
suspicious as they can often be avoided by just picking the desired
attribute off of the `_sub` object.
Previously, this bit of code was looking for specific icons on the
navbar, but it's more semantic to just look for the `.fa` which is a
direct child of `.stream`. It also makes the code cleaner, to have a
single call here.
This commit removes a redundant line of code which was converting from
hex to RGB rounding off and then converting from RGB to hex again.
This line was (mistakenly) introduced in
eb4a2b9d4e while removing a hover effect
that had become irrelevant.
Google has removed the Google Hangouts brand, thus we are removing
them as video chat provider option.
This commit removes Google Hangouts integration and make a migration
that sets all realms that are using Hangouts as their video chat
provider to the default, jitsi.
With changes by tabbott to improve the overall video call documentation.
Fixes: #15298.
This adds support for a "spoiler" syntax in Zulip's markdown, which
can be used to hide content that one doesn't want to be immediately
visible without a click.
We use our own spoiler block syntax inspired by Zulip's existing quote
and math block markdown extensions, rather than requiring a token on
every line, as is present in some other markdown spoiler
implementations.
Fixes#5802.

Now we can remove `user_avatar_file_input_error` id and added new class
`image_file_input_error`.we can access this class using
`#user-avatar-upload-widget .image_file_input` so that we can
have only one id at top-level and 'image_upload_widget.hbs`
can be more dynamic so we can use for other similar widgets also.
Now we can remove `user-avatar-block` id and added new class
'image_file_input'.we can access this class using

Now we can remove `user-avatar-block` id and add common class `image_block`.
we can access this class using `#user-avatar-upload-widget .image_block`

Now we can remove the id `avatar-spinner-background` and access spinner
element from `#user-avatar-upload-widget .settings-page-upload-text` so
that we can have only one id at top-level and 'image_upload_widget.hbs` can
be more dynamic so we can use for other similar widgets also.
The upload text element is wrongly named as id=user_avatar_upload_button.
now we can remove that id and access upload text element from
`#user-avatar-upload-widget .settings-page-upload-text` so that we
can have only one id at top-level and 'image_upload_widget.hbs` can
be more dynamic so we can use for other similar widgets also.
we can remove `user_avatar_delete_button` id and access delete button
from `#user-avatar-upload-widget .settings-page-delete-button` so that
we can have only one id at top level and 'image_upload_widget.hbs`
can be more dynamic so we can use for other similar widgets also.
Renaming "user-settings-avatar" to "image_upload_button" since the
`user-settings-avatar` name is irrelevant/confusing for the upload
button, and converting the id into a class so that we could just have
only one outer id.
This changes the user avatar image display implementation to more
closely match how the realm icon and realm logo image features are
structured. This is early preparatory work towards sharing this code
between the various widgets.
The previous commit introduced a bug where it was not intuitive
for the user to scroll again.
For the current narrow, new messages were fetched again only when
scrolled to the bottom as usually there are many messages displayed.
However when the edge case mentioned in the previous commit
occured, it was not very obvious that a scroll should be done
or we could already be at the bottom and could not scroll again
to trigger a fetch.
`message_viewport.at_bottom` has a relevant comment explaining
this behaviour.
The previous commit handled the rare race condition. However,
there is a possibility that the rare race condition might occur
again while we are handling the previous condition.
This commit resolves these 2 problems by performing a re-fetch
while also resetting the `expected_max_message_id` and this
approach has two benefits:
1. The reset prevents an infinite loop, if somehow the expected
max message's id gets corrupted resulting in a situation
where the server can never send an id greater than that even
after fetching.
2. Even though we stop after just one re-fetch the race condition
might recursively occur while we handle the previous race
condition. And even though the reset prevents multiple re-fetches,
we don't have the missing message problem.
This is because we treat the next race condition as a new race
condition instead of it being a continuation of the previous.
The `expected_max_message_id` gets updated again, on receiving
a new message. Thus it can again enter the `fetch_status` block
as the reset value is updated again.
If a user sends a message while the latest batch of
messages are being fetched, the new message recieved
from `server_events` gets displayed temporarily out of
order (just after the the current batch of messages)
for the current narrow.
We could just discard the new message events if we havent
recieved the last message i.e. when `found_newest` = False,
since we would recieve them on furthur fetching of that
narrow.
But this would create another bug where the new messages
sent while fetching the last batch of messages would not
get rendered. Because, `found_newest` = True and we would
no longer fetch messages for that narrow, thus the new
messages would not get fetched and are also discarded from
the events codepath.
Thus to resolve both these bugs we use the following approach:
* We do not add the new batch of messages for the current narrow
while `has_found_newest` = False.
* We store the latest message id which should be displayed at the
bottom of the narrow in `fetch_status`.
* Ideally `expected_max_message_id`'s value should be equal to the
last item's id in `MessageListData`.
* So the messages received while `has_found_newest` = False,
will be fetched later and also the `expected_max_message_id`
value gets updated.
* And after fetching the last batch where `has_found_newest` = True,
we would again fetch messages if the `expected_max_message_id` is
greater than the last message's id found on fetching by refusing to
update the server provided `has_found_newest` = True in `fetch_status`.
Another benefit of not discarding the events is that the
message gets processed not rendered i.e. we still get desktop
notifications and unread count updates.
Fixes#14017
This commit removes is_old_stream property from the stream objects
returned by the API. This property was unnecessary and is essentially
equivalent to 'stream_weekly_traffic != null'.
We compute sub.is_old_stream in stream_data.update_calculated_fields
in frontend code and it is used to check whether we have a non-null
stream_weekly_traffic or not.
Fixes#15181.
We refactor these 2 notices to match with the loading indicators,
thus they have been moved to `message_scroll.js`.
After a successful message fetch, we have logic to decide whether
we want to display the notices and also whether we want to hide
the loading indicators (which are already displayed).
We also conservatively hide the notices similar to the indicators
every time we narrow.
The only exception is that we show the history limit notice on
deactivating the narrow (visiting `home_msg_list`).
Since on narrowing we call `load_messages_for_narrow`,
which fetches both top and bottom messages, two loading
indicators were temporarily displayed.
This was also the case for the `home_msg_list` when we
call `mesage_fetch.initialize` on startup.
To resolve this we do not display the bottom loading
indicator (for new messages), if the older messages
are being fetched too. This is only for the initial
narrow change, and the bottom loading indicator will
be displayed correctly when the user is at the bottom.
This fixes a regression introduced when we added bottom loading
indicators at all, which was temporarily reverted in
67053ff479 before being restored in the
last couple commits.
This commit makes the `loading_older_messages_indicator` similar
to the `loading_newer_messages_indicator`.
Now all the decisions about whether to show a loading indicator
will be made from the `fetch_status` API. We still hide the
indicators everytime the view is changed, as explained in the
previous commit.
As explained in 67053ff479,
multiple message fetches may be taking place at the same time.
So some other narrows / the home message list's indicator might
get shown for the current narrow.
This commit moves the updation of the indicators display logic
to the `fetch_status` API.
Now the `loading_newer_messages_indicator` gets displayed along
with the `loading_newer` = true updation for that narrow's message
list, i.e. just before we send the API request. But only if the
message list we are fetching matches with our current message list.
The same indicator is hidden similarly, along with the
`loading_older` = false updation for that narrow's message list,
i.e. just after the success response is recieved. But only if
the message list whose data we recieved matches with our current
message list.
Also the indicators are hidden everytime we activate narrow
or deactivate narrow (`home_msg_list`). And on entering
`narrow.activate` we fetch for it's messages so they get
displayed again, if need be.
This is the reason `message_scroll.hide_indicators();` was
moved to a location above `fetch_messages`.
Fixes#15374.
This commit actually just deletes the `get_default_suggestion`
function while the `get_default_suggestion_legacy` function's
logic remains the exact same, it is just renamed.
Since the operator can never be undefined as mentioned in the
previous commit, we do not require the check with undefined
and as a result the, `if (suggestion)` condition can be removed.
The 3 changes made here are as follows:
* The if block for both the functions is simplified as
`Filter.parse` will always return an array and also
[].slice(0, -1) === [] is true.
* The code where `base_operators` is declared is moved
to just before where it is actually used.
* The `base` variable declaration is changed to match
the pattern of that present in the non-legacy function.
Its value remains the same.
This is a prep commit for when we want to merge the
`get_search_result_legacy` and `get_search_result` functions.
This is the exact same bug as observed in
02ab48a61e.
The bug is in the way we invoke `Filter.parse`.
`Filter.parse` returns a list of operators which
can contain only one 'search' term at max.
All strings with the 'search' operator present
in the query are combined to form this 'search'
term.
However on concatenating two filters we may get
two terms containing the 'search' operator. This
will lead to the search suggestions getting
generated based on only the last 'search' operator
term instead of all the terms having the 'search'
operator.
This is evident from the test change as suggestions
should be based on "s stream:of" but instead they
were based on just the latest query.
In commit 35c8dcb599 we introduced the
`_stream_params` object within filter.js but we didn't correctly
handle cases where `_stream param`s is undefined within `get_title()`,
`generate_url()` and `get_icon()`, which cause the navbar to if eg a
guest user tries to access a stream they weren't subscribed to.
This commit fixes this by:
* Adding the relevant checks
* Adding node tests that include non-existent streams.
* Adds the 'question-circle-o' icon for non-existent stream narrows.
A side note here is that "non-existent streams" fall under
"common narrows" as per our current definitions, which doesn't really
make sense but shouldn't bother us.
Fixes: #15387.
This commit adds translation tags to a few user facing strings which
weren't translated prior:
- "Unknown streams" text and description.
- "All messages" heading.
- Tooltip text for precise count of subscribed users.
The numeric count itself is not translated, because we do not do
similar anywhere else in the UI.
We simply pass the visible message ids to remove_and_rerender
which supports bulk delete operation.
This helps us avoid deleting messages in a loop which freezes the
UI for the duration of the loop.
Fixes#15285
This event will be used more now for guest users when moving
topic between streams (See #15277). So, instead of deleting
messages in the topic as part of different events which is
very slow and a bad UX, we now handle the messages to delete in
bulk which is a much better UX.
This commits adds restriction on admins to set message retention policy.
We now only allow only organization owners to set message retention
policy.
Dropdown for changing retention policy is disabled in UI for admins also.
This commit adds the code to disable deactivate organization button
for admins. We now allow only owners to deactivate the organization.
The backend implementation for allowing only owners to deactivate
is already added in 81c28c1.
This commit adds the restriction of deactivating owners for admins
by disabling the deactivating button in the UI. Only owners are
allowed to deactivate other owners. The backend part of this is
already implemented in 86b52ef.
This commit adds the option of owner role in user role dropdown
and also takes care of the restrictions while adding/removing
owner status of the user.
This commit also handles the places where we dispaly role of
the user in UI.
The changes made here are as follows:
* We rename `show_history_limit_message` and `hide_history_limit_message`
to `show_history_limit_notice` and `hide_history_limit_notice`
respectively.
* We rename `hide_or_show_history_limit_message` to
`update_top_of_narrow_notices` as now this function is responsible
for updating the history limit notice as well the end of results
notice.
* We extract 2 functions responsible for hiding and showing the end
of results notice, similar to that of the history limit notice.
All instances of `$(".all-messages-search-caution").hide();` are
replaced with the call of `hide_end_of_results_notice` function.
The streams:all advertisement notice in search should only appear
after all results have been fetched to indicate we've gotten to the
beginning of the target feed.
The notice gets hidden at the start of `narrow.activate` and is
shown just after we've fetched an older batch of messages if the
"oldest" message has been found.
Previously it would get displayed after the first fetch which
takes place from `narrow.activate`. Thus we move this logic to
`notifications.hide_or_show_history_limit_message` which gets
called after a successful message fetch.
Since the home message view contains all the messages we are not
required to display this notice. However if it is already shown
we hide it as a part of `handle_post_narrow_deactivate_processes`.
To accomplish this we need to add `has_found_oldest` key to the
`fetch_status` API.
We also removed the `pre_scroll_cont` parameter as this was it's
only use case and is now redundant.
On update_message events, we were changing narrow before we
locally updated the data, this resulted in a weird mismatch
between locally available data and that fetched from the server.
Ideally, we should not be requesting any data from the server
in most scenarios since the messages for new narrow is
locally available.
As a result, the new narrow didn't have any messages other than
a breadcrumb message. To fix this, we change narrow post
locally updating the data.
The original bug was not exactly reproduced, but a similar version
of it was simulated and was found to be fixed.
Tweaked by tabbott to preserve an optimization.
This ensures that we do this fetch, which is intended to get data on
the pre-event state, before we start perturbing the message list data
structures via rerendering.
Apparently iamcal/emoji-data has a dedicated category for flag emojis.
And get_all_emoji_categories() in emoji_picker.js doesn't return the
Flags category, because we haven't declared that category in our emoji
data logic.
Note that the category looks quite sparse because it lacks country
flags, since we don't yet support emojis combined with a Zero Width
Joiner (ZWJ) (see #992 & #11767).
Fixes#15303.
In the very common event that one ends up looking at not the home view
while the browser is catching the home view up, this ended up
resulting in loading indicators being displayed at the bottom of
whatever narrowed view one was looking at incorrectly.
A proper fix for this will involve making these loading indicators
conditional on what view one is looking at. Since one can change
views rapidly from a narrowed message list to the home view (and in
the future, between narrows), probably the best approach would be to
move the state in `message_scroll.js` the state for whether a loading
indicator is expected to be shown into the `fetch_status` data
structures, and then make all decisions about whether to show/hide a
loading indicator be calls to a function with a name like:
current_msg_list.data.fetch_status.update_newer_loading_indicator()
At least, that's probably what we should call in places like
`narrow.deactivate()`.
Before 77a26d41ae, there was only one
loading indicator (at the top of the page), so the if/else logic for
hiding loading indicators was correct, if confusing. Since we've now
added a new bottom-of-page loading indicator, it's important to have
the logic correctly reset the state to hide all existing loading
indicators on narrowing, and then just render the ones needed/desired
by the current view.
Combined with similar code in `narrow.deactivate`, this achieves the
goal that we correctly update loading indicator state when switcing
views.
This deduplication helps with readability.
Pass get_topic_key in recent_topic_row instead of
computing it in DOM.
Fix broken test_update_unread_count
after this change. This was a regression
which went unnoticed.
We extract stream_edit.rerender to make
the live-update code easier to follow.
The function should eventually be inlined,
but I want to clean up some other stuff first.
These are basically shims for some deeper refactorings.
I basically just try to make the code express the
problems more clearly:
- use stream_name instead of sub
- make early-exit more explicit
- make it clear that add_subscriber needlessly
requires a name
- make it clear we have an unnecessary loop
I also fixed some phony data in the test.
We are trying to phase out the trigger-event way
of telling modules to do something.
In this case we not only remove the indirection
of the event handler, but we also get to remove
`compose_fade` from the `ui_init` startup sequence.
This also has us update `compose_fade` outside
the loop, although that's only a theoretical
improvement, since I don't think `peer_add` events
every actually include multiple streams.
To make the dispatch tests a little flatter, I
added a one-line change to zjsunit to add
`make_stub` to `global`.
To manually test:
* have Aaron reply to Denmark (keep compose box open)
* have Iago add Hamlet to Denmark
* have Hamlet unsubscribe
Previously, the navbar failed at managing the searchbox text state in
cases where, eg, the user performs navigation by browser history.
This commit resolves the issue by ensuring that the searchbox text is
only (and always) set when the searchbox is made visible, and as such
there is no "state" to manage and we will always display the correct
text.
It also adds a test in `search_legacy.js` to make sure that the search
text is placed as intended.
Fixes: #14771.
The navbar currently fails at managing the searchbox text state in
cases where, eg, the user performs navigation by browser history.
This is a prep commit that will help resolve the bug.
I tried to make the most minimal change here
possible, since I don't really know this module
well. Possible alternatives were:
* $('#tab_bar') everywhere
* elem
* tab_bar_elem
I don't feel strongly.
Long term I believe we intend to change the name
of this module to something more like `navbar.js`???
When we call functions inside our own modules that use
the `window.foo = exports` pattern, we have always had
a pretty strong preference to call `exports.internal_function`
instead of `foo.internal_functions`.
The stragglers here weren't violating this convention
for any intentional reason. Some of the places here
probably were part of code moves where somebody
(probably me) moved functions into the modules to avoid
unnecessary indirection, and I missed a spot where I
could change from `presence` to `exports` (or whatever).
And other places are probably just kinda arbitrary
decisions by the original developer, and we just haven't
bothered to clean it up until now.
This combines `upload_realm_logo` and `upload_realm_icon` into single
function called `upload_realm_logo_or_icon`. The functions wer near
duplicates.
Additional refactoring should be able to deduplicate the logic further.
Part of #14730.
We can remove a {{theme_mode}}-settings class on the upload button
and access day/night from `.closest("realm-logo-section")`
so that only the outer ID differs between the two widgets.
Part of #14730.
Previously, renaming the stream would cause `colorize_tab_bar` to fail
because the search filter would provide it the old stream name and the
look up for the stream color would fail.
A quirk of how this system currently works makes it so that even
though the filter is set to the old stream name (and so becomes
inconsistent with the stream_data state) the `_stream_params` object
is maintained to be consistent with stream_data and as such can be
relied upon to find the correct color of the icon.
Previously the navbar did not live update the stream name correctly.
The correct behaviour was blocked on the `_stream_name` prop on the
filter object. The original purpose for maintaining this prop was
convenience, to reduce calls to `subs`, however, it would become
inconsistent with the value from `subs` on stream rename.
In this commit we add a call to `filter.fix_stream_params` in
`subs.update_stream_name`. This fixes live rerendering in the navbar,
despite the fact that searchbox in the nav (and the filter object via
`filter.operands("stream")[0]`) will still have the old name.
This is a slightly hacky way of masking some of the problems in the
Filter object. However, it should make do until we migrate to a stream
ID based state there.
Fixes: #14728.
Prior to this commit the icon in the navbar didn't live update to
reflect changes in stream privacy.
Here, we add a call to `tab_bar.render_title_area` in
`subs.update_stream_privacy()`, to enable live updates on the icon.
Fixes#14728.
The navbar currently does not live update the stream icon correctly
for changes in stream privacy.
One place where the correct behaviour gets blocked is on the
`_is_stream_private` prop in the filter object. We keep props such as
this for convenience, to reduce calls to `subs`, however, this prop
becomes inconsistent with the value we get from `subs` when the stream
privacy is updated.
In this commit we add a call to `filter.fix_stream_params` in
`subs.update_stream_privacy`. This change does not fix the live
rerendering in the navbar because we don't call redraw yet, but
it's a prep commit to towards that goal
The navbar currently does not live update the stream name or the icon
for stream privacy correctly.
One place where the correct behaviour gets blocked is on the
`_stream_name` and `_is_stream_private` props on the filter object.
We keep these props for convenience, to reduce calls to `subs`,
however, these props become inconsistent with the values from `subs`
when the stream is renamed or stream privacy is changed.
This refactor extracts out `get_stream_params` and `fix_stream_params`
methods as a prep commit towards correcting the problem, but does not
make any behavioural changes.
This is a prep commit for solving #14728.
A comment about the difficulties relating to live updating stream
names in the navbar was incorrectly placed within the function for
live updating stream descriptions in
023187b3f1.
This moves the comment to the right place.
We store the relevant data to hide/show a topic in the row itself,
and use jquery to hide/show it on filter change.
This also fixes search breaking the set filters.
This fixes the bug that message was undefined since we used to store
locally echoed message id and were not updating it after new message
id for the same message was received from the server.
We remove all trace of the old topic and reprocess all the new
messages in old and new topics.
process_topic_edit function was moved since it needs to be below
get_topic_row function.
We reuse the existing logic for displaying and updating stream color
from the stream left sidebar.
Tests fixtures were extracted and updated for this commit.
The approach that supposed to use this data was not implemented
and hence this data will no longer be used.
If this feature is implemented in future,
this data will still not be used since we would depend upon
starred_messages.js library to provide us the required information.
* Add action to mute topics.
* We don't need to store muted data per topic as previously planned.
* Moved launch topic test to the top so that they run on non-modified
data.
* Show an empty overlay of recent topics.
* Register click event to open recent topics.
* Launch recent topics on "t" keypress.
This is based on the draft overlay.
This is part of a refactor that aimed to remove /json/users calls,
as we can get all the information needed on people API.
Now, the list render for $users_table and $deactivated_users_table
uses user_ids instead of user objects, as the people API give us
a filtered list of active_user_ids and non_active_user_ids.
The populate_users function doesn't need to sort the list of
active and non-active users, because the list_render is called
specifying to sort users by their full_name.
Author: Clara Moraes Dantas <clara.moraesd@gmail.com>
As part of a refactoring, we are now able to remove the
/json/users calls and get all the information needed on people.js.
To do this, now the populate_users uses the people api to get
all the active and non active human users.
This is part of a refactoring aimed to eliminate /json/users calls,
as we can have all the information needed on people.js.
Now, human_info() will call is_person_active() because the person
object it will receive won't have is_active field anymore, as
we'll use the people api to get a set of filtered active/non active
users.

This was previously hardcoded with agreement between the Zulip backend
and frontend as 86400 seconds (1 day). Now, it's still hardcoded in
the backend, but arranged in a way where we could add a setting
without any changes to the mobile and terminal apps to update logic.
Fixes#15278.
I don't believe it's actually been possible for this to be shown in
Zulip in several years; and we just made it more obviously so
(resulting in a linter error).
We now trigger realm day/night logo upload by clicking on realm
day/night logo element itself rather than having a big upload button
and to match our user avatar UI. Added new spinner over the logo
element itself to show while uploading realm logo for both day and
night logos.
Change user avatar spinner implementation to match
realm icon spinner implementation and have common css class
since similar implementation between similar widgets may help
in future deduplication.
The orig_initial_pointer variable was part of the implementation for
ensuring server-initiated reloads preserve the user's selected message
and scroll position (so that they are not disruptive). Previously,
the logic did some unnecessary contortions to ensure the two goals:
* The `pointer.js` logic knows what the server thinks the pointer is.
* The `message_fetch.js` logic knows what anchor to use to center it's
home view fetch.
It's a lot cleaner to do this by not mutating page_params.pointer.
In the past, the anchor message has always been the same as the
pointer, but we're about to change that as part of removing the
pointer entirely.
Using the anchor is logically what we meant, anyway, since we always
want to select a message that's actually within the range we just
fetched.
This was implemented in 2012 to avoid showing a loading indicator for
fetching messages for users with no message history. However, the
Zulip onboarding UI always creates some message history, and fetching
history is fast, so this is likely clutter more than a useful
optimization.
We're migrating to using the cleaner zulip.com domain, which involves
changing all of our links from ReadTheDocs and other places to point
to the cleaner URL.
Previously, the edit history modal did not respect the time format
setting (whether to show times in 12-hour or 24-hour format) when
displaying message edit times (#15171).
This commit fixes that by passing the edit times to
timerender.stringify_time(), which takes that setting into account,
instead of just doing a static string formatting operation.
This bug has existed since February 2017, when the edit history UI
was first added in 1a697b6e02.
Fixes#15171.
Currently, the edit history modal does not respect the time format
setting (whether to show times in 12-hour or 24-hour format) when
displaying message edit times (#15171).
This commit refactors how fetch_and_render_message_history() handles
times in order to make fixing that issue in a reasonable way easier.
It will be fixed in a following commit.
Previously, the show_date_row flag for the first entry in the edit
history modal was directly set to `true`, while in all other entries
it was calculated with identical code. Though show_date_row for the
first entry should indeed always be true, there's no need for it to be
a special case.
In preparation for factoring out the calculation of show_date_row,
this commit nominally calculates the first entry's show_date_row with
the same code that is used to calculate show_date_row for all other
entries. Nominally, because it will still always end up being true.
Previously, the logic for when to add a date row to an edit history
entry was checking against the date of the original message (which is
always the first entry in the message history), not the date of the
previous edit. This caused every edit not made on the date of the
original message to show a date row, even if it wasn't the first edit
on that date.
This commit fixes that bug by updating prev_timestamp after processing
each message history entry, whereas before it was only updated after
processing the first one — the original message.
This bug has existed since June 2017, when
84e5fe733c changed how date rows worked;
from only showing one at the top labeled "Earliest" to each entry
having a possibilty of showing one.
Previously it was impossible for a topic-only edit to show a date row
in any circumstance; the code that handles topic-only edits didn't
even attempt to set show_date_row, the flag that determines whether a
date row should be rendered. Now a topic-only edit will show a date row
in the same circumstances as any other edit[1].
This bug has existed since March 2019, when rendering of topic-only
edits was first added in 38be5ea743.
[1] Currently, "the same circumstances as any other edit" means
there'll be a date row on the original message, and then on every edit
not made on the same date as the original message, even if it was't
the first edit on the date it was made. This is a bug that will be
fixed in a following commit. This commit is being made first since
it's fixing a lack-of-information bug, whereas the other bug is a
somewhat less important repeating-information bug.
The `wildcard_mentions_notify` key was missing from the initial
sub data when a new stream was created. Thus `wildcard_mentions_notify`
was undefined and `wildcard_mentions_notify_display` was false.
(This key is used to render the data in the templates)
This caused a bug where the wildcard notifications was unchecked
in the stream personal settings and the newly created stream was
displayed in the stream specific notifications table.
Prior to commit 8b7e70ac27 this system
would simply just .hide() forms when they were closed and
.empty().append() every time it needed to "show_edit". This was not a
very clean way of handling the action of canceling an edit, so
8b7e70ac27 introduced a change that had
the "show_edit" function append the form and the "hide" function
.empty() the form.
However, we overlooked the fact that the user could use browser
history to navigate away and back to the form and use "e" or
"left arrow key" to successfully append another form and get to an
ugly, broken state.
This commit does not revert 8b7e70ac27
as it is still accurate to .empty() when hiding the form, but we add
an early exit if a form already exists, to avoid bugs like the above.
Using an early exit instead of eg .empty().append() ensures that the
user doesn't accidentally lose the entire content of an edit, if they
deselect the input box and press `e`.
Fixes: #15045.
Fix a bug where the color picker reverted the custom color to the
previous one after clicking outside the popover. The bug occurred
because although there is a confirm button, the 'clickoutFiresChanges'
option was set as true, which made the frontend always send two POST
request to edit the stream and, for a reason I wasn't able to discover,
if you hit the confirm button and click outside fast enough, the change
fired by the clickout event sent the old color to the server. It was
fixed by setting the 'clickoutFiresChanges' option to false.
Fixes#15101
If typeahead is used, this adds comma separated search queries
so that multiple search pills don't get combined as one and the
search behaviour remains same as search_pills_enabled = False case.
If typeahead is not used, this prevent the typing of a single comma
after the pill gets created.
This commit removes the 'get_active_user_for_email' function
from people.js. We have removed the use of this function
in the previous commits, which changed the functions using
'get_active_user_for_email' to use user_ids instead of emails.
This commit changes the would_receive_message to use user_id
instead of emails.
This change is done because user_ids are immutable and using
user_ids is the correct way of uniquely identifying user.
The change in 'would_receive_message' also leads to change
in util.is_pm_recipient to use a string of user_ids instead
of emails.
We also know that user_ids passed to 'would_receive_message'
are active user_ids, since we get them from buddy_list.
So we don't need to check whether the user is active, which
was previously being checked by get_active_user_for_email.
This commit changes the needs_subscribe_warning function to
use user_id instead of emails.
This change is done because user_ids are immutable and using
user_ids is the correct way to uniquely identify a user.
We already know that user_ids being passed in this function are
active user_ids, since they come from typeaheads.
So, we only need to call 'people.get_by_user_id', to get the user
object from user_id and do not need to check the active status of
user, which was done previously using 'get_active_user_for_email'.
Option to disable breadcrumb messages were given in both message edit
form and topic edit stream popover.
User now has the option to select which stream to send the notification
of stream edit of a topic via checkboxes in the UI.
It's safer and cleaner to simply just rerender the entire navbar for
small updates like these since they're rare events. Given that we're
not doing anything unique in such updates, it's best if we just call
".render_tab_bar" wherever required instead of having several
functions in tab_bar.js which do exactly that. This also sets a good
precedence of what to do for stream privacy and subscriber count live
update.
However, we can't easily fix the "subs.update_stream_name" code path
because of how the Filter objects represent the stream by name, not be
ID. Given that the above would be out of scope for this change, it's
left as a TODO.
It's best to separate these in order to simplify the "build_tab_bar"
function. We also correct a comment about the "search_exit" click
handler being for the searchbar.
This commit changes the compose_invite_users template to use
data-user-id as property intead of data-useremail.
This is changed to maintain consistency with other parts of the
code where user_ids are used for referring to users.
This also helps in removing some of the checks for the case of
undefined emails.
We now send user_ids to the backend API for subscribing/unsubscribing
users to a stream instead of emails.
This change is done now because we have just migrated the backend API to
support sending user_ids in 2187c84, so it wasn't possible before.
This change is helpful because sending user_ids is more robust, as those
are an immutable reference to a user, rather than something that can
change with time.
Unable to upload a realm logo once we encounter file input error bug
was fixed by clearing `get_file_input()` after file input error
with `get_file_input().val('')`.
The previous .clone() logic was preserved over many years but
apparently was also just wrong.
Fixes#15198
The get_active_humans and get_non_active_humans functions used
to return a list of user objects. The get_active_humans is used
on settings_users.js and settings_bots.js, and in both places the
only attributes needed of the person object are the user_id and
full_name.
To make the function return smaller, instead of a list of active
humans, we are returning a list of active human ids, saving memory.
With the ids we can call the people API to get the full_name attribute.
This reimplements our Zoom video call integration to use an OAuth
application. In addition to providing a cleaner setup experience,
especially on zulipchat.com where the server administrators can have
done the app registration already, it also fixes the limitation of the
previous integration that it could only have one call active at a time
when set up with typical Zoom API keys.
Fixes#11672.

This commit fixes the bug for subscribing the user from mention
warning which was introduced in e52b544.
This is fixed by changing email to be passed as list to
'invite_user_to_stream'.
The reason for this change is that, this is where `Filter` and
actual tracking of what messages are contiguous lives. This
will be beneficial when we will to move to a model where we
cache `MessageListData` objects for a large number of views.
This commit changes the stream settings UI for adding subscribers to
use our standard user pills in the input box, rather than just
plain-text email addresses. This is important progress towards
removing display email addresses from the Zulip UI.
It also allows subscribing multiple users at the same time, which is a
nice improvement.
Previously, the unsubscribe logic just called
exports.show_subs_pane.nothing_selected() if one had been viewing the
edit UI for a stream that the user just unsubscribed from, which
clears the selection, but didn't update the hash or do other cleanup
logic.
We should instead be calling stream_edit.open_edit_panel_empty(),
which is the appropriate function for this purpose (and has
exports.show_subs_pane.nothing_selected as a subroutine).
There's no reason to send data beyond the user `id` of the uploader,
and reason not to, as the previous model was both awkward when
`author=None` and resulted in unecessary parsing complexity for
clients.
Modified by tabbott to add the frontend changes and API documentation.
Fixes#15115.
This commit changes the person dict in event sent by do_change_user_role
to send role instead of is_admin or is_guest.
This makes things much more straightforward for our upcoming primary
owners feature.
This commit changes the update user API endpoint to accept role
as parameter instead of the bool parameters is_guest and is_admin.
User role dropdown in user info modal is also modified to use
"dropdown_options_widget".
Modified by tabbott to document the API change.
This reverts commit 9f5725d265.
I was trying to fix how we size the buddy list in
narrow mode, which was off by 10px, but my fix worsened
things for regular mode.
Also, somebody reported a traceback related to my fix.
I didn't fully research the traceback,
but I suspect it was related to some media-query settings
for small screens or due to a put-buddy-list-in-left-pane
setting. (Basically, `$('#right-sidebar').position()` may
be undefined in some cases, and I wasn't handling that.)
After reverting this, we still have the original
off-by-10px bug that I was trying to fix, but I will
attempt to do that more cleanly in a separate commit.
This should make it so that in normal situations where
the buddy list is in the right sidebar, we will be
able to see the "Invite more users" link again.
I am still a little puzzled how I didn't catch this in
testing, but it was toward the end of a long PR, so
it could easily just be simple human error.
Fortunally, this regression was only on master for a
couple days, and users could still invite users via
the gear menu.
Restored old behavior accidentally removed in
1ae07b93d8 (diff-e353fab8bea58b8746ec68c83aa39b36L48)
The server only remembers the most recent presence status update per
device. Meaning that, for instance, if the user only uses one client and
that client's last status update was IDLE, then the server only knows
that, doesn't know anything about the user's last ACTIVE time. Thus the
"active_timestamp" the server will serve about this user to the webapp
will be "undefined".
The old behavior was that for the sake of the "Last active: x ago"
status in buddy list popover, the latest status timestamp was used,
whether IDLE or ACTIVE.
The change linked about changed that to only pay attention to
ACTIVE. Thus, if the server doesn't remember any ACTIVE statuses, webapp
would show "Last active: More than 2 weeks ago", which was incorrect.
We restore the old behavior and further improvements can be made on top
of this.
Previously, we had to fiddle with the generated HTML to update
individual values. Now, we can simply ask the widget to rerender
the row that we updated.
This is done by passing an html_selector function that returns
a selector for the rendered item.
If:
- we do not provide html_selector function
- item is not currently rendered
- new html is not a string.
then the render_item() call is a noop.
We do not shift much of the validation logic here just
yet. This function has been declared at the top of the
file to act as usage docs for the widget as well, in
terms of what combinations of opts are valid and what
are not.
We remove the "GROUP PMs" section that used
to be in the lower right sidebar.
Most of this is straightforward code removal.
A couple quick notes:
- The message fetching code now just
calls `huddle_data.process_loaded_messages`,
which we still need for search suggestions.
We removed `activity.process_loaded_messages`.
- The `huddle_data.process_loaded_messages`
function no longer needs to return `need_resize`.
- In `resize.js` we now just calculate
`res.buddy_list_wrapper_max_height` directly
from `usable_height`.
This fixes the calculation for how far from the
top of the viewport we think #right_sidebar's
top is. To fully explain this commit requires
some background info.
Normally `#right-sidebar` has 50px of top margin
and 0px of top padding. And our `resize.js`
calculations have been accurate for the normal
case.
But when you are in the so-called `.expanded` mode
(i.e. when you're in a narrow window) we split up the
50px as follows:
- 40px margin
- 10px padding
Why don't I make the CSS just be more consistent here?
- If you go to 50px in the "expanded" mode
you mostly cover up the right scrollbar,
except for the 10px gutter that is below
the 40px-tall `.header` section. To fully
cover it we apparently want the padding;
otherwise you see a small, unusable remnant
of the scrollbar which just looks funny.
- If we were to make the "regular" right sidebar
just always have the 40/10 split, then we
would start to diverge from the left sidebar,
which is currently 50/0 as well.
- If we went to make both the left and the right
sidebars 40/10 split, well, that's just an
even riskier change.
So instead I fix the resize calculation:
I just calculate the actual `top` position.
Is any of this actually user-facing?
Yes. Now if a user is a narrow window and
they open the buddy list, we will make
the buddy list 10px smaller to account for
the padding. This makes it less likely for
the invite link to get squeezed out.
We'll use this in the next commit.
Note that there's a minor change in the order
in which we apply new heights--we now
do sidebars before bottom whitespace.
We had a bunch of places where we
were calling `resize.resize_bottom_whitespace`
with no arguments, which has been a no-op
since the below commit that removed support
for our `autoscroll_forever` option:
fa44d2ea69
With the `autoscroll_forever` options things
like opening/closing the compose box could
alter how much bottom whitespace you'd want,
but we stopped supporting that feature in
2017.
Since then bottom_whitespace has just always
been 40% of the viewport size. So we only need
to change it on actual resize events.
It's worth noting that we still call
`resize_bottom_whitespace` indirectly in many
places, via `resize_page_components`, and
the latter actually causes
`resize_bottom_whitespace` to do real work,
but that work is redundant for most of those
codepaths, since they're not triggered by
changes to the viewport. So there are other
opportunities for cleanup.
The `buddy_list_wrapper` has zeros margins, so it's
just noise in the current calculations. You can
verify this pretty easily with console statements,
as well as looking at the code. I tried it with
various permutations of narrow windows and display
settings.
Trigger realm icon upload by clicking on realm icon element itself
rather than having a big upload button and to match our user avatar UI.
Added new spinner over the icon element itself to show while
uploading realm icon.
Computed indexes into these raw objects should be guarded with
Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty; make our accessors do this
automatically and use them consistently.

This is a prep commit which combines the previous `#searchbox`
block with the newly updated `#searchbox_legacy` block which
contains the modifications related to the new navbar display.
This only consists of changes to `#searchbox` and is still broken.
But it integrates the searchbox with the new tab_bar changes so that
only one searchbox is shown (instead of two, previously).
This is helpful because if the user pastes multiple queries in the
searchbox and there are invalid search operators, then it is visible
through the typeahead.
The main reasoning for this change is as follows:
* When the search bar contains multiple search queries
but no search results, the last search operand does
not get displayed.
This happens due to the fact that filter object
contained 2 terms having the operator key value as
"search" instead of a single term where operator is
"search" and operand is a single string containing
the space seperated search queries. This condition
occurs for search_pills_enabled case only because
we used to Filter.parse the query twice
(once for the `base_operators` and once for the
`suggestion_operator instead of doing both at once).
Thus the `search_query` value inside the
`narrow.show_search_query` function which only
selected the operands of the first term displayed
an incomplete result.
* Another benefit of this commit is to display the narrow
operators in the URL fragment the same way as when
search_pills_enabled = False.
For example, On entering the queries in the mentioned
order -> 'is: starred', 'abc', 'def', 'is: private',
'ghi'. This is the URL:
Previously:
/#narrow/is/starred/is/private/search/abc.20def/search/ghi
Now (same as pills disabled case):
/#narrow/is/starred/is/private/search/abc.20def.20ghi
* We are also able to de-duplicate the non-typeahead search
query code path.
As mentioned in the comment for `KEY.BACKSPACE` event
in `input_pills.js`, we do normal character deletion
if there is input present. However this wasn't the case
if spaces were present. Also the input wasn't cleared
after the last pill was removed.
Thus `trim()` is removed from the input length check and
the new pill is still created from the trimmed value.
We can remove the typeahead by clicking outside the search box
after we have entered the search string to be filtered and then
focus on the searchbox and press enter or just by pressing enter
on an empty string.
Previously, the narrow would just deactivate for the above condition
as the searchbox value which was passed as the raw_operators parameter
to the narrow.activate function was empty.
This happened because we called the activate function on pressing
enter for the keyup event, while the keydown event in the parent
container made a pill from the text and cleared the input. (as
mentioned in the comment for `KEY.ENTER` case in `input_pill.js`)
The people.js tests were using _add_user function to add
cross realm bots. The problem is that _add_user function
doesn't properly simulates the adding process as it doesn't
add the user in cross_realm_dict as well.
To solve this and eliminate the need of calling
people.initialize(), which means the params obj needs to be
defined, we extracted the whole logic of adding a cross realm
user into a separete function, add_cross_realm_user.
This makes it so that search_suggestion.js
does not depend on activity.js.
That dependency hasn't really been "elegant"
for quite some time, but it will become particularly
unnecessary when we go to remove the "Group PMs"
section from the right sidebar.
This commit introduces a temporary wart
where we have these two functions with the
same name in a sort of unnecessarily
complicated code stack:
activity.process_loaded_messages
huddle_data.process_loaded_messages
But we will eliminate the former function
very soon, and our message-related codepaths
will just call the `huddle_data` version
directly.
TESTING NOTES:
Now that `huddle_data` is a tiny leaf
module, it's super easy to just use the
real implementation of what was formerly
called `activity.get_huddles()` (and is
now in `huddle_data`).
When I first wrote this commit, introducing
the real implementation of `get_huddles` exposed
some bugs that I fixed in the immediately
prior commits to this.
When the tests were originally written,
I believe `activity.js` had some annoying
`jQuery` dependencies that made it hard
to unit test against. We've slimmed it over
time to be mostly just a "controller" module.
But even in its current state it would have
been a bit of a bloated dependency.
The other friction for using the actual
version of `get_huddles` was setting up
the message data, but that's pretty minor.
If you have a group PM where some users have
three-digit user_ids and some with four-digit
user_ids (or similar), a huddle could effectively
be ignored when determining the order of
search search suggestions.
Basically, we need a way to canonically sort
user_ids in "huddle" strings, and it's somewhat
arbitrary whether you sort lexically or sort
numerically, but you do need to be consistent
about it.
And JS is not exactly helpful here:
> [99, 101].sort()
[ 101, 99 ]
This is a pretty obscure bug with pretty low
user-facing consequences, and it was never
reported to us as far as I know, but the fix
here is pretty straightforward.
We have had similar bugs of slightly more consequence
in the past. The reason this bug has shown
up multiple times in our codebase is that every
component that deals with huddles has slightly
different forces that determine how it wants
to serialize the huddle. It's just one of those
annoying things. Plus, bugs with group PMs
do tend to escape detection, since most people
spend most of their time either on streams
or in 1:1 PMs.
This is a pure code extraction. The current
code is buggy with respect to user_ids with
different lengths of digits, i.e. it does
a naive lexical sort instead of a numerical
sort. We'll fix that in the next commit.
