The resolve topic warning can feel like clutter in the event that the
compose box is empty (which often occurs when the user has no intent
to send a message), so we configure the validation logic to only
display the notice when the compose box is non-empty.
We take some care to minimize work the function is doing, beacuse it
is called on every keystroke in the compose box.
Fixes: #21155.
We already show the error if topic input is empty and it is
not allowed to send messages without topic in the organization,
and this commit also shows error when topic is "(no topic)".
The topic is set to "(no topic)" when someone sends a message
with empty topic input box and when it is allowed to send message
without topics in the organization.
This is not ideal behavior as we may want to treat "(no topic)"
differently from empty topic, but we can fix this in future and
this commit can be a short term fix.
Fixes#21344.
This commit updates the error message shown on sending a message
with no topic in an organization with mandatory_topics setting
set as true to match the error message in API.
This commit creates the function warn_if_topic_resolved that checks if
the topic to which the user is composing is resolved or not. First it
checks if the stream exists and then if the topic name starts with the
RESOLVED_TOPIC_PREFIX. If the conditions are true, a warning banner is
shown to the user.
It also shows to the user a button to unresolve the topic, if he has
the permission to do so.
Fixes#20584.
This commit moves the warn_if_private_stream_is_linked,
needs_subscribe_warning, and warn_if_mentioning_unsubscribed_user
to compose_validate.js from compose.js.
These warning functions are very naturally part of the compose box
validation system, though they're a bit different in being called from
the typeahead codebase.
Part of splitting compose.js into more natural modules.
We are doing this to avoid annoying behavior, when
"enter sends" is enabled, and the user accidentally hits
"Enter" and has to deal with the error message.
Fixes#19182
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.
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.
