We improved it in the following ways:
* Show the error message with the maximum character
limit.
* Disable the send button.
* When the user tries to send the message via hotkeys
i.e, When "Press enter to send" is enabled or the user
uses "Shift" + "Enter" shortcut, Flash the red border
around the compose box.
Also renamed `check_and_set_overflow_text` to
`check_overflow_text` for better clarity.
This bug was found when the user tries to send a
over character limit message, i.e It has failed the
validation but it still shows the "Sending..." text.
We use subs as a common variable name for a collection of stream
data structure used in settings, in lot of modules. So this
rename clears a bunch of related shadowed variables.
This commit makes a working toggler in compose_actions that adds the
compose-fullscreen class to the compose that removes the max-height
from the compose textarea and adds flex elements above so that the
height automatically adjust with the device height. This results in
making the compose box full screen sized.
The compose_height.js maintains the state of the height of the compose
box. Also, when the compose box is closed, the compose box is reset to
it's default behaviour and original height. So, everytime user need
not toggle off the compose full size and only for specific message
it is used.
It also adds destroy autosize on compose_height state change.
It destroys the autosize of textarea when the full
screen sized compose box is toggled on. And everytime when it is
turned off, it reinitialises the autosize. This also adds a
condition in autosize_textarea to only autosize when composebox
is not in full height state.
Fixes#17660
Fix a bug where the compose box cut the message without warning the user
the message pasted was longer than the allowed. It was fixed by stopping
cutting the message off and showing an indicator whenever the limit exceeds
and removing the indicator as soon as message gets less than that.
The cut off for showing the indicator is set as 90% of the limit.
Fixes#15909

This commit first moves the compose.validate() function out
with the functions that are needed by it. Then one by one
checked for which function is now not needed in compose.js.
This moves all validation related functions out of "compose.js"
to "compose_validate.js".
Splitting compose announce variables out of compose.js.
This commit moves the "user_acknowledged_all_everyone" and
"user_acknowledged_announce" out of compose.js to reduce
cyclic dependency of compose_validate on compose.js.
Moving wildcard mentions to compose_validate.
The wildcard mention settings are mostly used while validating.
Also to reduce the cyclic dependence of compose in
compose_validate, the related wildcard mentions are moved out to
compose_vaidate.js.
This also converts reset_acknowledged functions to set values
by passing values.
When a user tries to send a (group) private message to a deactivated
user, a compose error is displayed.
Fixes#13766.

This commit moves the compose_error function to its own module, which
will be useful for future work splitting the compose module.
We also simplify compose_not_subscribed_error to call the
compose_error show function.
This should make it more intuitive to add
new elements to the compose box (such as
banners), and it also makes it a bit more
clear for styling purposes that the same
geometry happens whether the compose box
is open or the buttons are visible.
I lifted the #compose_container div into
the server template. It's not totally
clear to me why we need both #compose
and #compose_container, but there are
some scary comments about 1400px that
made me too timid to address that quirk.
In passing I removed a clearly redundant
click handler.
This commit renames `delete_draft_after_send` to
`delete_active_draft` for two main reasons:
1) This function does the job of deleting the draft that we
are currently using in compose box and it is independent
of the message sending functionality.
2) This is prep refactoring for new drafts behavior where
we delete the draft if the compose box is cleared and
closed.
There is no functionality change caused by this change. We turn the
event key to lowercase so hotkeys work even when Caps Lock is on as
it did before.
Tested by using the keybinds with and without Caps Lock in compose
box:
- "Ctrl + B" and "Ctrl + Shift + B",
- "Ctrl + I", and
- "Ctrl + Shift + L".
(Also tested that "Ctrl + Shift + I" and "Ctrl + L" do not work.)
We move compose from being a part of message feed to
being a part of middle column which is a common parent of recent
topics and message feed. This allows us to use a common compose
box for both the views. Fortunately, compose actions were
independent of this change so there weren't any evident
side effects.
Fixes#17543
There were some changes that were lost/added by mistake
during a rebase of #17707 after #18154 was merged.
Fixes the GIF icon being hidden / displayed incorrectly
with respect to the settings.
These changes were originally part of
67527a2517 but
were lost during the rebase.
This commit adds 'user_can_subscribe_other_users' helper in
settings_data.js amd this helper will replaced all the
instances of page_params.can_subscribe_other_users.
We also remove the incorrect code in server_events_dispatch.js
where we were updating page_params.can_invite_to_stream which
is actually not used in other parts of code and instead of it
page_params.can_subscribe_other_users is used to check whether
user is allowed to subscribe others or not. This code was
added in 272ed9068.
Though this could have been done in a different commit, but as
we are adding the code to use the correct updated value in this
commit only, this has been fixed here.
There is also no need of adding that complex logic to update the
correct 'page_params.can_subscribe_other_users' field on
'realm_update' event, as we are using user_can_subscribe_other_users
helper and thus we always use the updated values to check whether
the user is allowed to subscribe others or not.
We convert the following elements to use a class instead of
id for accessing them across the codebase:
* markdown_preview
* undo_markdown_preview
* markdown_preview_spinner
* message_edit_content
* preview_content
Converted them together since changes to one impacted the other in
some modules like click_handlers.
Also, added a function in rows to get `message_row`.
We use `.compose_upload_file` across compose and message_edit_form
for file upload icon. This will help us share common code between
`compose` and `message_edit_form`.
In both compose and `message_edit_form` we use `file_input`
class to identify the file `input` element. This will help
to more easily share common elements between compose and message_edit.
We move compose.html to compose.hbs file while keeping
`#compose` still in `home.html` as a hanger
where append rest of the elements.
This will provide us with two benefits:
* We could share common elements between message_edit_form and
compose.
* We can insert compose directly in any element. We may decide to
do it for recent topics.
This reduces the complexity of our dependency graph.
It also makes sub_store.get parallel to message_store.get.
For both you pass in the relevant id to get the
full validated object.
