Right now we have buttons for "New conversation" and "New private message"
in different views, but both buttons do the same thing.
The current state is confusing for new users, since there is already a lot
of terminology one needs to learn in order to understand the Zulip
conversation model. It's very plausible a user would think a "conversation"
is something different from a "private message" or a "topic".
We now use a Proxy to wrap zjquery elements, so
that we can detect callers trying to invoke methods
(or access attributes) that do not exist. We try
to give useful error messages in those cases.
The main impact here is that we force lots of tests
to explicitly stub `length`.
Also, we can't do equality checks on zjquery
objects any more due to the proxy object, but the
easy workaround is to compare selectors. (This
is generally an unnecessary technique, anyway.)
The proxy wrapper is fairly straightforward, and
we just have a few special cases for things like
"inspect" that happen when you try to print out
objects.
This changes the "new private message" button to be instead "new
conversation" when looking at PMs, to avoid confusion that the button
was the right thing to do to reply to the current private message
conversation.
Fixes#11679.
This code will correctly add video call link to the message
textarea based on whether 'Add video call' was selected from
message composition form or message edit form.
The implementation was semi-rewritten by tabbott to remove an
unnecessary global variable, with fixes for the unit tests from
showell.
Fixes#11188.
This seems like a small change (apart from all the
test changes), but it fundamentally changes how
the app finds "topic" on message objects. Now
all code that used to set "subject" now sets "topic"
on message-like objects. We convert incoming messages
to have topic, and we write to "topic" all the way up
to hitting the server (which now accepts "topic" on
incoming endpoints).
We fall back to subject as needed, but the code will
emit a warning that should be heeded--the "subject"
field is prone to becoming stale for things like
topic changes.
The stream/topic edit areas now have these ids:
#stream_message_recipient_stream
#stream_message_recipient_topic
They are pretty verbose, but being able to grep
for these without noise does have some value.
Fixes#10124.
Users in the waiting period category cannot subscribe other users to
a stream. When a user tries to mention another unsubscribed user, a
warning message appears with a subscribe button on it to subscribe
the other user.
This commit removes the subscribe button and changes the warning text
for users in the waiting period category.
Instead of displaying a fixed error message inside the yellow bar itself,
now the yellow bar disappears on error and a red compose_error is shown.
The error message is the one returned from the server.
Fixes#9842.
Enables avatar images in pills wherever user_pill.js is used.
(e.g composebox, user group settings)
Changes to search_pill.js are not made as search pills haven't been
added yet completely and search_pill.js just contains the preparatory
code right now.
No change to compose_pm_pill.js is not required as it uses
`user_pill.create_item_from_text` in its `create` function.
This implements right-to-left message automatic detection support in
the compose box as well as the message feed. Full unit tests and
support in the message-editing UI are for future work (as are
potentially more fancy things like supporting things like
right-to-left multi-word names for users/streams/etc.).
Fixes#3123.
This adds a /ping command that will be useful for users
to see what the round trip to the Zulip server is (including
only a tiny bit of actual server time to basically give a
200).
It also introduce the "/zcommand" endpoint and zcommand.js
module.
This is preparation for our migration of our JS pipeline to webpack,
which includes as part of the process a hack of exporting globals via
the window object.
Partially fixes#4708.
Implements a first version (v1) for the feature. The next step would be
to allow admins to toggle `is_announcement_only` in the UI.
This run_test helper sets up a convention that allows
us to give really short tracebacks for errors, and
eventually we can have more control over running
individual tests. (The latter goal has some
complications, since we often intentionally leak
setup in tests.)
This function replaces part of compose_fade.would_receive_message(),
which has a real janky interface of returning true, false, or
undefined.
We don't need to couple the semantics of compose fading to whether
we help subscribe a mentioned user. They're mostly similar, but they
will probably diverge for things like bots, and the coupling makes
it difficult to do email -> user_id conversions.
One thing that changes here is that we get the stream name from
compose_state, instead of compose_fade.focused_recipient. The
compose_fade code uses focused_recipient for kind of complicated
reasons that don't concern us here.
We flatten the code a bit by removing a check that type is object,
and we replace it later with a check that type is string.
We also no longer allow document-like objects to be wrapped based
on the location-attribute-is-present hack. Instead, we want the
tests to just set document to 'document-stub'.
