We swallow the error if our python_to_js_filter code is
unable to parse some python regex properly. This ensures
that the web app stays responsive.
We would fail to show an accurate local echo for these
regexes, however, the backend would act as the final
authority for handling the realm pattern conversion.
Since on replacing the first 'P<>' group, we remove this text from
the string, we have to make the RegExp start looking from index 0
again to properly convert later 'P<>' groups to JS regex syntax.
We want the search widget, when visible, to be
outside the scroll container for the stream list.
One obvious use case is if you start scrolling, and
then realize it might be less effort to search.
Also, for user search, it already worked this way.
We have to add a couple resizing hooks here, but
it's not necessary to change the actual resize
calculation, since we move the section inside
of #streams_header, which is already accounted
for.
The only markup change here is to add
a `stream_search_section` class. I don't
know why we use `notdisplayed` here instead of
jQuery, or what `input-append` is for, but I
considered them outside the scope of this change.
We can also remove some crufty CSS that was
compensating for it being inside the container.
This adds date dividers within a single message group when the only
reason we had previously been splitting apart two message groups is a
change of date. The overall effect is a cleaner message list user
experience.
The downside of this change would be that the recipient bars no longer
will always show a new date for date changes; to fix that, we rewrite
how the floating recipient bars both set the date field on the
floating recipient bar itself, as well as ensure that non-floating
recipient bars don't show duplicate dates.
In a future design update where we modify how message recipient bars
look, we may very well be able to simplify this logic by removing some
of the dynamic nature of the recipient bar calculations. But this is
a good implementation of what remains.
Tweaked significantly by tabbott from Steve Howell's original, both to
extract these changes from a larger PR as well as to modify the
first_visible_message logic to handle some tricky corner cases.
Fixes#10171.
Use the results of commit #73d26c8 to remove the method
`render_stream_description` in static/js/stream_data.js and instead
use the rendered_description attribute now being sent by the backend.
This will be a valuable optimization and a step towards removing the
need for the marked.js markdown parser and speeding up the client end.
In small screen sizes, when the user presses shortcut `w` to search
for another user, the hide_all function calls in the search code path
would hide the right sidebar, immediately after opening it, making the
hotkey basically unusable.
We fix this by extracting a separate hide method that hides all true
popovers, but not the user list sidebar.
Fixes#11463.
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 is primarily a feature for onboarding, where an organization
administrator might send a bunch of random test messages as part of
joining, but then want a pristine organization when their users later
join.
But it can theoretically be used for other use cases (e.g. for
moderation or removing threads that are problematic in some way).
Tweaked by tabbott to handle corner cases with
is_history_public_to_subscribers.
Fixes#10912.
This function unlike `invite_streams()` returns an array of objects having
various info (name, stream_id, invite_only, default_stream) related to
streams rather than an array of names of streams.
We now compute the class that drives the tiny
green/orange/empty dot in the user popover using
the same logic as the buddy list.
This was broken in the early implementation of
set/clear-away, but it was never released.
Fixes#11413
This makes it possible to mention a user with a name like Gaël that
contains diacritics by typing e.g. "Gael", significantly reducing the
need to use a special keyboard to mention other users.
Fixes#11183.
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`
We had initially designed the poll widget like a blog
post with comments beneath it but it makes more sense
to think of it as just a simple poll with options.
Instead of custom stubs, we now use zjquery. We also
limit a couple checks to the first call to
`show_empty_narrow_messages`, since it's the same
logic every time.
When you hover over a user that has set a user
status, we now show something like "out to lunch."
You can test this in the console by doing:
user_status.server_update({status_text: 'out to lunch'})
And then hover over your name in the buddy list.
The stubs here were kind of unnecessary, as the
real people module is lightweight and data setup
is pretty easy.
In passing I also removed the unnecessary `sed`
abbreviation.
The name `insert_user_into_list` is sort of misleading,
since we are often just redrawing the user's existing
item in the buddy list.
I chose `redraw_user` over `update_user` to emphasize
that we're just going to redraw it with whatever data
has been updated by the callers.
This adds a setting under "Notification" section of
"Organization settings" tab, which enables Organization administrator to
control whether the missed message emails include the message content or
not.
Fixes: #11123.
The commit f863a9b567 had modified
jquery.filedrop's paste method to exit early if any of the items in the
clipboardData is of the string kind. The early exit was added to prevent pasting
an image thumbnail for text copied from software like MS Word, instead of
pasting the actual copied text content. When copying an image in a (modern?)
Browser, though, the clipboard seems to contain a html `img` tag item, along
with the actual image file. This resulted in pastes being broken.
This commit modifies the condition checked for the early exit. We now actually
look at the html content in the clipboard to see if it is an `img` tag, in which
case we upload the image, instead of exiting early.
Closes#7130.
User was able to click delete button multiple time which could cause
multiple delete requests. This commit disables and hides the delete
message button after the first click and shows a spinner until http
the delete request responds.
Also adds a casperjs test to ensure that spinner becomes visible and
delete button becomes invisible after clicking on delete button for
first time and hides spinner and show delete buttton when message is
deleted.
Fixes: #11219.
This commit takes away the ability for non-admin members to create
streams where only admins can post messages by hiding the option from
them.
Fixes#11290.
You can now pass in an info field with a value
like "out to lunch" to the /users/me/status,
and the server will include that in its outbound
events.
The semantics here are that both "away" and
"status_text" have to have defined values in order
to cause changes. You can omit the keys or
pass in None when values don't change.
The way you clear info is to pass the empty
string.
We also change page_params to have a dictionary
called "user_status" instead of a set of user
ids. This requires a few small changes on the
frontend. (We will add "status_text" support in
subsequent commits; the changes here just keep
the "away" feature working correctly.)
We had a bug where if you started typing a message
and then used quote/reply (after the fact), we
would overwrite the user's original message.
The bug was kind of subtle--the internal call
to "respond" to the message would select the message
text, and then `smart_insert` would replace the
selection, unless it was Firefox.
Note that we now also allow you to cross-post
replies, which is a plausible scenario, although
possibly unintentional at times, too. I'm erring
on the side of giving the user control here, but
I'll add a warning in the next commit. Our compose
fade feature should also prevent unintentional
mixes here, too.
NOTE: If you revert this commit, you want to revert
the immediately prior commit as well. The history
is that Ishan made some improvements to the widget,
but there were some minor bugs. I decided not
to squash the commits together so that the git
history is clear who did what. (In particular, I
want questions about the JS code to come to me if
somebody does `git blame`.)
Anyway...
This is a fairly significant rewrite of the polling
widget, where I clean up the overall structure of
the code (including things from before the prior
fix) and try to polish the prior commit a bit as
well.
There are a few new features:
* We tell "other" users to wait for the poll
to start (if there's no question yet).
* We tip the author to say "/poll foo" (as
needed).
* We add edit controls for the question.
* We don't allow new choices until there's
a question.
On the backend, we extend the BlockQuoteProcessor's clean function that
just removes '>' from the start of each line to convert each mention to
have the silent mention syntax, before UserMentionPattern is invoked.
The frontend, however, has an edge case where if you are mentioned in
some message and you quote it while having mentioned yourself above
the quoted message, you wouldn't see the red highlight till we get the
final rendered message from the backend.
This is such a subtle glitch that it's likely not worth worrying about.
Fixes#8025.
These mentions look like regular mentions except they do not
trigger any notification for the person mentioned. These are
primarily to be used when you make a bot take an action and
the bot mentions you, or when you quote a message that mentions
you.
Fixes#11221.
AFAIK I should this never fail, hence the blueslip.error line. But it
is failing in practice when rendering user groups after looking them
up by ID, and the error handling should definitely be softer.
In between releases, the following commit introduced
a bug where we agressively scroll to the top every
place we call `ui.update_scrollbar`:
092b73d0b7
The main symptoms were that the left and right sidebars
would go to the top for things like selecting a topic,
getting activity updates from the server, and resizing
the window. It was very jarring.
The recent commit looked innocuous--the root of the problem
was the original API expressed an intent to scroll to the
top, but didn't actually do it, so it was a bug in hiding.
There are **some** occasions where it's actually appropriate
to scroll to the top, mostly around search filtering, and
in those places we now call the new `ui.reset_scrollbar`
function.
This is a bit of an emergency fix, so particularly with
the settings stuff, we may get more reports of glitches here.
The important thing here is that you almost never want to
reset the scrollTop for sidebars.
