Previously, because our check for whether to close compose for clicks
on the page body was looking at popover-content, not popover, parts of
larger popover-title areas (e.g. the big avatar at the top of the user
popover) did not have the proper click handler behavior.
Also, rearrange the comments to be a bit clearer.
The modal-backdrop and user-profile-modal had their on-click behavior
overridden to simply hide the modal, thus preserving the compose box.
Keeping the compose box open after viewing a user's profile feels
like a more natural UX.
Tweaked by tabbott to move the fix into the central click handler.
Fixes: #11585.
On clicking the edit button for a stream description, the stream's
unrendered description should be made editable as text instead of
the stream's rendered description (which would be displayed as HTML
instead of text).
This completes the effort to use backend-rendered stream descriptions
here. Fixes#11272.
The following elements in the top left corner
are major components of our app:
All messages
Private messages
Starred messages
Mentions
We can now find them directly:
$('.top_left_all_messages')
$('.top_left_private_messages')
$('.top_left_starred_messages')
$('.top_left_mentions')
Before this, we had to build up complicated selectors
like below:
exports.get_global_filter_li = function (filter_name) {
var selector = "#global_filters li[data-name='"
+ filter_name + "']";
return $(selector);
};
I don't think any newbie would know to grep for "global_filter",
and I've seen a PR where somebody added specific markup here
to "Private messages" because they couldn't grok the old scheme.
Another thing to note is that we still have a "home-link"
class for "All messages", which overlapped with portico
code that had the same name. (There were some inaccurate
comments in the code relating to the tab bar, but we don't
actually have a way to click to the home view in the tab
bar any more.) I'll eliminate that cruft in another commit.
For this commit the four elements still have the
"global-filter" class, since there's some benefit to being
able to style them all as a group, although we should give
it a nicer name in a subsequent commit.
Most of this PR is basic search/replace, but I did add a
two-line helper: `top_left_corner.update_starred_count`
Apparently, we didn't have one of these, and thus had a moderate
number of generally very old violations in the codebase. Fix this and
clear the ones that exist..
The stream_list test that was fixed here was sort of
broken. It accomplished the main goal of verifying
what gets rendered, but now the data setup part is
more like the actual app code (and simpler, too).
A bug caused background links to open even when a modal in the user
settings overlay was active in the foreground. This commit fixes this
by disabling mouse events for the background when the modal is active,
and restoring them as soon as the modal starts closing.
Fixes#10654.
For stream links inside messages (like "#social") we
now use these functions:
hashchange.go_to_location:
We don't need to set href. Relative paths
are more standard, and the url is already
encoded.
hash_util.by_stream_uri:
This saves a step in building the URL.
We have a body-level click handler that closes
all modals if you click outside a modal. This
code is a bit brittle, because we need to first
check that the element we clicked is not in a modal,
and our markup there isn't entirely consistent.
This is a quick fix that just adds `#user-profile-modal`
as one of the selectors to look for.
Fixes#10500
When the icon or the text of a menu item in settings dropdown was
clicked, already open compose box was closed. Clicking on the empty
area of that menu item i.e the area where the icon or text was not
present did not close compose box. This commits check whether the
target itself is an anchor tag or of any of its parent contains the
anchor tag.
This commit prepares the frontend code to be consumed by webpack.
It is a hack: In theory, modules should be declaring and importing the
modules they depend on and the globals they expose directly.
However, that requires significant per-module work, which we don't
really want to block moving our toolchain to webpack on.
So we expose the modules by setting window.varName = varName; as
needed in the js files.
This is mostly a code move, but because things are more
modular now, we don't need the two conditionals to find
out what kind of panel menu we're inside of, and our
selectors are less brittle.
The list with the options for normal settings now has
the class normal-settings-list.
The list with the options for org settings now has
the class org-settings-list.
The new markup helps us avoid code like this:
$(".settings-list li:not(.admin)")
We also have funny hacks in our key handlers related
to the old combined-list approach, which we can
eventually eliminate.
This is a trial to have the first reply hotspot in the bottom
whitespace (and stick there until "Got it!" is pressed).
Tweaked by tabbott to clean it up a bit. Still needs more work on the
visuals.
We now initialize most modules in ui_init.js, which
isn't the perfect place to do it, but at least now
we have a mostly consolidated entry point.
All the new foo.initialize() methods introduced in
this module run the same order relative to each
other as before this commit. (I did some console
logging with a hacked version of the program to
get the order right.) They happen a bit later than
before, though.
A couple modules still have the `$(function() {`
idiom for miscellaneous reasons:
archive - is a different bundle
common - used elsewhere
list_render - non-standard code style
scroll_bar - no exports
setup - probably special?
socket - $(function () is nested!
transmit - coupled to socket
translations - i18n is a bigger problem
ui_init - this bootstraps everything
We consistently either pass a `then_select_id` into narrow.activate,
or were using the select_first_unread option. Now, we just compute
select_first_unread based on the value of then_select_id.
This change makes a common code path for these two operations:
* clicking on a user
* hitting enter when a user is highlighted
The newer codepath, for the enter key, had some differences that
were just confusing. For example, there's no need to open the
compose box, since that's already handled by the narrowing code.
For possibly dubious reasons, I let each handler still call
popovers.hide_all() on its own, since it makes the code a bit
more consistent with existing code patterns.
There are several ways we open help for keyboard shortcuts,
markdown help, and search operators.
- from the gear menu
- from the compose box
- from the search box
- hitting ? for keyboard help
- arrowing/clicking through the tabs
This just moves the relevant code into a module and changes a
bunch of one-line calls in various places.
This cleans repeating code in error callback in settings.
We made a generic function in `ui_report.js` which require two
arguments `xhr` and `btn`; we preferred `btn` over `row` as argument
because a row may have more than one buttons.
Fixes: #8788.
This commit prefixes stream names in urls with stream ids,
so that the urls don't break when we rename streams.
strean name: foo bar.com%
before: #narrow/stream/foo.20bar.2Ecom.25
after: #narrow/stream/20-foo-bar.2Ecom.25
For new realms, everything is simple under the new scheme, since
we just parse out the stream id every time to figure out where
to narrow.
For old realms, any old URLs will still work under the new scheme,
assuming the stream hasn't been renamed (and of course old urls
wouldn't have survived stream renaming in the first place). The one
exception is the hopefully rare case of a stream name starting with
something like "99-" and colliding with another stream whose id is 99.
The way that we enocde the stream name portion of the URL is kind
of unimportant now, since we really only look at the stream id, but
we still want a safe encoding of the name that is mostly human
readable, so we now convert spaces to dashes in the stream name. Also,
we try to ensure more code on both sides (frontend and backend) calls
common functions to do the encoding.
Fixes#4713
We now do all of the main logic for starring/unstarring
a message in `message_flags.toggle_starred`:
* mark the message as read (just in case)
* update the UI (i.e. the green star in the message)
* update the server
The calling code in both the click handler and the hotkey
handler remains simple--they just handle minor details like
finding the message and clearing popovers.
For updating the server, we now call the new
`send_flag_update` helper.
And we continue to delegate some of the logic to
`ui.update_starred`, but we remove some code there that's
now pushed up to `message_flags.toggle_starred`.
This change should be mostly transparent to users, but it
does remove some inconsistent behaviors between the click
handler and the hotkey handler. Before this change, the
click handler was more aggressive about updating the UI
and marking the message as read. For people using the "*"
key to star/unstar, they probably would only have noticed
different behavior on a slow connection or in an edge
case scenario where only half of the message was onscreen.
More importantly, by simplifying how we talk to the server,
this eliminated up to a one-second lag due to the debounce
logic in the batch_updater code. The complicated debounce
logic is only really needed for batch-updating "read"
messages, and it was overkill and sluggish for starring
messages.
Last but not least, we add defensive code for the local
echo case. (Users have to wait till the message gets acked
to star it.)
We made this change because users often unnecessarily click "Home"
first in their use of Zulip, because it seems appealing. While "All
messages" isn't quite precise (it doesn't include muted streams), it
does describe relatively simply the interleaved view that this
represents.
This commit leaves everything as "home" in the code, and only changes
user-visible strings and docs. Changing the code will be a big project;
there are hundreds of relevant occurrences in variable names, etc.
Further, we'll probably want to convert those various variable names
in different ways.
Tweaked by tabbott to extend the commit message and update a few comments.
