This small modules nicely breaks down the
responsibilities of topic_list and stream_list
when it comes to zooming in and out of topics
(also known as hitting "more topics" or "All
Streams).
Before this, neither module was clearly in
charge, and there were kind of complicated
callback mechanisms. The stream_list code
was asking topic_list to create click handlers
that called back into stream_list.
Now we just topic_zoom set up its own click
handlers and delegate out to the other two
modules.
This module makes it really easy to create are-you-sure
dialogs for dangerous operations.
Basically it's one function with five parameters. You
give three chunks of HTML, a callback function, and
a parent container.
The first use of this will be in settings_user_groups,
coming up in a couple commits.
This is part of work to break some of our
nastier circular dependencies in preparation
for our es6 migration.
This commit should facilitate loading leaf-like
modules such as people.js before all of the things
that reload.js depends on.
We add a padded div to our container for the buddy
list to give scrolling the illusion that we've
rendered every list item, while still letting
the browser do the heavy lifting instead of trying
to fake it out too much.
We probably should have done this a while ago, even
though these functions are pretty tiny. The goal here
is to make it easier to have more consistent search
semantics.
Our first use case is subs.js. In this case we
are able to decouple a bit of generic string
matching from the subs-specific code.
Also adds the file to the static asset pipeline.
search_pill_widget.js will be used to access the pills object for
the search query box. It will act in a similar way to
compose_pm_pill.js. Why is this needed: Consider you've initiated
a pills object in search.js for the search query box. Now you want to
also access that pills object to pre-populate pills after a reload in
hashchange.js. search_pill_widget.js makes this easy without the use
of events.
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 commit fixes some modules that were erroneously left out while
transitioning app.js to webpack. This commit exposes them using
expose-loader or setting them directly to window.
Adds search_pill.js to the static asset pipeline. The items
for search pill contain 2 keys, display_value and search_string.
Adding all the operator information i.e the operator, operand and
negated fields along with the search_string and description was tried out.
It was dropped because it didn't provide any advantage as one had to
always calculate the search_string and the description from the operator.
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.
A "zform" knows how to render data that follows our
schema for widget messages with form elements like
buttons and choices.
This code won't be triggered until a subsequent
server-side commit takes widget_content from
API callers such as the trivial chat bot and
creates submessages for us.
This starts the concept of a schema checker, similar to
zerver/lib/validator.py on the server. We can use this
to validate incoming data. Our server should filter most
of our incoming data, but it's useful to have client-side
checking to defend against things like upgrade
regressions (i.e. what if we change the name of the field
on the server side without updating all client uses).
This commit lays the foundation to handle submessages for
plugin widgets. Right now it just logs events, but subsequent
commits will add widget functionality.
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
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.)
We don't reference this anymore (it was only ever used by the Dropbox
integration, which was hardcoded-off for years before being removed in
e6833b6427)
This should help prevent problems with folks introducing new code that
doesn't match our whitespace style.
There's a couple things I don't like about this configuration:
* How it handles multi-line JS lists (i.e. the [] syntax)
* That we ended up having to turn off indentation on a half-dozen
files that apparently don't use our standard IIFE indentation style.
* That we have it completely turned off for the node tests; ideally,
we'd just have slightly different rules around the IIFE identation story.
But otherwise, this works pretty well, and should catch a pretty wide
range of indentation regressions.
Most of this was straightforward.
Most functions that were grabbed verbatim and whole from
the original class still have one-line wrappers.
Many functions are just-the-data versions of functions that
remain in MessageList: see add, append, prepend, remove as
examples. In a typical pattern the MessageList code becomes
super simple:
prepend: function MessageList_prepend(messages) {
var viewable_messages = this.data.prepend(messages);
this.view.prepend(viewable_messages);
},
Two large functions had some minor surgery:
triage_messages =
top half of add_messages +
API to pass three lists back
change_message_id =
original version +
two simple callbacks to list
For the function update_muting_and_rerender(), we continue
to early-exit if this.muting_enabled is false, and we copied
that same defensive check to the new function
named update_items_for_muting(), even though it's technically
hidden from that codepath by the caller.
This introduces a generic class called list_cursor to handle the
main details of navigating the buddy list and wires it into
activity.js. It replaces some fairly complicated code that
was coupled to stream_list and used lots of jQuery.
The new code interacts with the buddy_list API instead of jQuery
directly. It also persists the key across redraws, so we don't
lose our place when a focus ping happens or we type more characters.
Note that we no longer cycle to the top when we hit the bottom, or
vice versa. Cycling can be kind of an anti-feature when you want to
just lay on the arrow keys until they hit the end.
The changes to stream_list.js here do not affect the left sidebar;
they only remove code that was used for the right sidebar.
This was a bit more than moving code. I extracted the
following things:
$widget (and three helper methods)
$input
text()
empty()
expand_column
close_widget
activity.clear_highlight
There was a minor bug before this commit, where we were inconsistent
about trimming spaces. The introduction of text() and empty() should
prevent bugs where users type the space bar into search.
