Our unread.js code basically silently treats empty recipient
strings or unknown streams as having zero unread messages,
which is probably the correct behavior. We now have tests
that cover this. This commit also gets us to 100% line
coverage on the module (but not yet 100% branch coverage).
When we process messages for unread counts, we now call
people.pm_reply_user_string() to get a string of user ids,
rather than using emails that may have changed since the
message was originally created.
In people.emails_strings_to_user_ids_string, we just warn
for bad emails going forward.
Users can enter bad emails into the search location bar,
for example, and that causes us to compute a browser hash,
which in turn uses this function.
(It's possible that we should adjust the search code not
to compute hashes for narrowing when the narrow doesn't
make sense, but that could be a non-trivial fix.)
This change introduces an unread_topic_counter object
that manages unread counts for streams and topics. Consolidating
all the logic into a single class will set us up to add
logic for dealing with topic counts that includes provisional
counts of unread messages from the server. It also makes
the current code a little easier to reason about.
Most of this change was simply extracting functions, but
I also removed a few unnecessary and inconsistent calls to
`stream_data.canonicalized_name` that preceded our use of
Dict with a fold_case argument.
* In most cases, eslint --fix with the right comma-dangle settings was
able to update the code correctly.
* The exceptions were cases where the parser incorrectly treated the
arguments to functions like `assert_equal` as arguments; we fixed
these manually. Since this is test code, we can be reasonably
confident that just fixing the failures suffices to correct any bugs
introduced by making changes automatically.
We now use comma-delimited lists of user_ids for the following
data structures in unread.js:
- unread_privates[<user_ids_string>]
- get_counts.pm_count[<user_ids_string>]
