We used to have code scattered in multiple places to
calculate things like admin options, preview urls,
subscriber counts, and rendered descriptions for
streams before we rendered templates in the "Manage
Stream" code.
These are all consolidated into a new function
called stream_data.update_calculated_fields().
This is mostly code cleanup, but it also fixes a bug where
the "View Stream" button would not work for a newly created
stream.
Modified composebox_typeahead.js to recognize the triple backtick
and tilde for code blocks, and added appropriate typeahead functions
in that file and in typeahead_helper.js.
Additionally, a new file pygments_data.js contains a dictionary of
the supported languages, mapping to relative popularity
rankings. These rankings determine the order of sort of the
languages in the typeahead.
This JavaScript file is actually in static/generated/pygments_data.js, as it
is generated by a Python script, tools/build_pymgents_data.py. This is
so that if Pygments adds support for new languages, the JavaScript file
will be updated appropriately. This python script uses a set of popularity
rankings defined in lang.json.
Corresponding unit tests were also added.
Fixes#4111.
When you subscribe to a stream, we now set a newly_subscribed
flag on the object, and we return true during the is_active()
call.
This solves the problem that immediately after you subscribe, you
don't have any messages in the stream, so it would appear active
by our old criteria.
This is still something of a workaround, as once you reload, the
stream will become inactive again, unless other messages come in.
A more permanent solution here would be to have the backend
indicate newly subscribed streams to us (apart from the initial
event), but we may not really need that in practice.
It turns out the check to make sure that "social" filtered to
the bottom could give a false positive, since it was already
alphabetically at the end of the list.
So, I call the stream "cars" now instead, so that it only comes
after "Denmark" if the is_active flag gets respected.
I also check for the divider tags now.
The new logic has 4 tiers of priority:
* Whether a match is found in the name, start of description, middle
of description, etc.
* Importance to the user / activity -- more specifically, the order
used in the left sidebar. This means pinned streams first, active
streams, then inactive streams.
* Subscriber count: How big is the stream? Bigger is better.
* Alphabetical ordering is a final tiebreak.
Fixes#4508.
Despite the length of this commit, it is a very straightforward
moving of code from narrow.js -> narrow_state.js, and then
everything else is just s/narrow.foo()/narrow_state.foo()/
(with a few tiny cleanups to remove some code duplication
in certain callers).
The only new functions are simple setter/getters that
encapsulate the current_filter variable:
narrow_state.reset_current_filter()
narrow_state.set_current_filter()
narrow_state.get_current_filter()
We removed narrow.predicate() as part of this, since it was dead
code.
Also, we removed the shim for narrow_state.set_compose_defaults(),
and since that was the last shim, we removed shim.js from the app.
We now only call compose_state.composing() in a boolean context,
where we simply care whether or not the compose box is open. The
function now also returns true/false.
Callers who need to know the actual message type (e.g. "stream" or
"private") now call compose_state.get_message_type().
We now use "map" to have our inner generator of topics be
mapped to objects with both the stream and topic. Thanks to
Mahim Goyal for helping with this design.
Before this change, we would move "dormant" streams to the bottom
of your stream sidebar, but only if you had 40+ streams.
Now we do this in all cases to be more consistent.
This commit also changes the redraw strategy when we remove rows.
Before this change, we were doing incremental updates, but now we
call build_stream_list to do a complete rebuild. This was partly
motivated by adding the new divider, which would have complicated
the incrememental approach when you removed the last remaining
dormant stream.
This is mostly just moving methods out of compose.js.
The variable `is_composing_message`, which isn't a boolean, has
been renamed to `message_type`, and there are new functions
set_message_type() and get_message_type() that wrap it.
This commit removes some shims related to the global variable
`compose_state`; now, `compose_state` is a typical global
variable with a 1:1 relationship with the module by the same
name.
The new module has 100% line coverage, most of it coming
via the tests on compose_actions.js. (The methods here are
super simple, so it's a good thing that the tests are somewhat
integrated with a higher layer.)
* reset the emoji popover in case of an event
regarding update of realm_emoji.
* test-node-with-js: Add dependency - popovers module;
In dispath.js to support popovers object.
This changes the layout of "organization settings" for
non-administrators such that they can view "Filter settings".
("Actions" column and form to add a new filter are not available).
Fixes: #3636
This changes the layout of "organization settings" for
non-administrators such that they can view "Default streams" ("Actions"
and the form to add new default stream is not visible).
This moves respond_to_mention() and reply_with_mention() to
compose_actions.js. These methods are basically thin layers
on top of compose_actions.start().
This module extracts these two functions that get called by
several other modules:
start()
cancel()
It is a little bit arbitrary which functions got pulled over
with them, but it's generally functions that would have only
been called via start/cancel.
There are two goals for splitting out this code. The first
goal is simply to make `compose.js` have fewer responsibilities.
The second goal is to help break up circular dependencies.
The extraction of this module does more to clarify
dependencies than actually break them. The methods start()
and cancel() had actually been shimmed in an earlier commit,
and now they no longer have a shim.
Besides start/cancel, most of the functions here are only
exported to facilitate test stubbing. An exception is
decorate_stream_bar(), which is currently called from
ui_init.js. We probably should move the "blur" handler out
of there, but cleaning up ui_init.js is a project for another
day.
It may seem slightly odd that this commit doesn't pull over
finish() into this module, but finish() would bring in the
whole send-message codepath. You can think of it like this:
* compose_actions basically just populates the compose box
* compose.finish() makes the compose box do its real job,
which is to send a message
Before this fix, if you scrolled back in your PM history for a
person that you've had recent conversations with, then we would
backdate the record of their most recent conversation, and this
would make the sort ordering under the "Private messages"
section incorrect.
This commit fixes this error by re-writing the function
message_store.insert_recent_private_message() to check any
prior timestamps for that user. It also optimizes the function
a bit to short-circuit in O(1) time for cases where a recipient
already has a more recent timestamp, by having a Dict keyed
on user_ids_string.
We had never-enabled code to allow users to set default
streams for their bots (for event registration, default sending, etc.).
This commit removes the code.
We've had this kind of hacky setting called message_view_only for
a long time in the hotkeys code, and it originally helped optimize
the code a bit. It wasn't well maintained, and people started
adding non-message-view behavior to the arrow keys without flipping
that flag to false. This change finally flips the flag to false,
which simplifies some of our logic.
We now explicitly return true from process_hotkey() when we
handle up/down/backspace for the drafts modal. Also, we no longer
call preventDefault() from drafts.draft_handle_events(), since the
caller does that, and we no longer return `true`, since we were
never inspecting the return value anyway.
The up/down arrows now navigate the left pane of the settings menu.
The code here was originally implemented as part of our settings
redesign, but the code was added in a place that became unreachable
after we fixed a bug with home_tab_obscured(). This commit
resurrects the code and places the guts of it in settings.js. It
is possible that we want to clean this code up eventually to deal
better with hidden blocks.
The code here used to live in hotkey.js. Its complicated calling
protocol made it difficult to unit test. We are also trying to
slim down hotkey.js.
Our arrow navigation for things like `#stream_filters` has always
been kind of awkward, since it's difficult to get the focus to
their list items. This commit does nothing to fix that yet.
For small-ish realms (<= 250 users), we ensure that the presence
info includes all realm users the front end knows about, even in
cases where the server sends down a slimmed version of presence
data. We make the users "offline" by default, of course.
This commit sets us up to optimize larger realms without concerns
of breaking small realms. Small realms may want to continue to
show all users, even users who may have been offline several weeks,
since it doesn't clutter their API as much as it would for big
realms.
