The tighter interface prevents the need to specify
Recipient.PERSONAL (which can often be inaccurate in the
huddle case, anyway), and it prevents tests from confusingly
specifying a "subject" field for PMs.
Having send_stream_message() avoids the need to supply
Recipient.STREAM as a parameter, and it also uses the more
modern name of `topic_name` for topics. Under the hood, it
avoids some annoying steps for re-formatting the recipients,
since we just have a single stream name.
When possible, we want to use direct APIs for sending
stream messages.
This changes the codepath slightly, by not using
forwarded_user_profile, but it doesn't impact the number
of queries, and it's a simple check.
We also remove a couple "subject" references here.
This change allows normal bots to get UserMessage rows when
they are mentioned on a stream, even if they are not actually
subscribed to the stream.
Fixes#7140.
We now find all (possibly) relevant service bots for a message
in the call to get_recipient_info. This allows us to eliminate
some code that would patch them after we rendered.
The get_service_bot_events() function will ignore any service
bots that weren't actually mentioned in the message (due to
backticks) or part of the active user ids.
We now have a MentionData class that encapsulates
the users who are possibly mentioned in a message.
Not that the rendering code may not keep all the mentions,
since things like backticks will suppress the mention.
We populate this now in do_send_messages, so that we can use
the info earlier in the message-sending process. This info
now gets passed down the call stack as an optional parameter.
Note that bugdown.convert() still populates the data when its
callers decline to pass in a MentionData object.
This is mostly a preparatory commit, as we don't take advantage
of the data yet in do_send_messages.
In do_send_messages, we only produce one dictionary for
the event queues, instead of different flavors for text
vs. html. This prevents two unnecessary queries to the
database.
It also means we only put one dictionary on the "message"
event queue instead of two, albeit a wider one that has
some values that won't be sent to the actual clients.
This wider dictionary from MessageDict.wide_dict is also
used for the `feedback_messages` queue and service bot
queues. Since the extra fields are possibly useful down
the road, and they'll just be ignored for now, we don't
bother to remove them. Also, those queue processors won't
have access to `content_type`, which they shouldn't need.
Fixes#6947
Before this change, we populated two cache entries for each
message that we sent. The entries were largely redundant,
with the only difference being whether we sent the content
as raw markdown or as the rendered HTML.
This commit makes it so we only have one cache entry per
message, and it includes both content and rendered_content.
One legacy source on confusion here is that `content`
changes meaning when you're on the front end. Here is the
situation going forward:
database:
content = raw
rendered_contented = rendered
cache entry:
content = raw
rendered_contented = rendered
payload for the frontend:
content = raw (for apply_markdown=False)
content = rendered (for apply_markdown=True)
All links by default had an underline on hover, including when
<a> tags were wrapping <div> and <img> tags, which made for a small
underline near them on hover. This better focusses the underline
behavior to just paragraphs and lists.
This detects the meta key being pressed to open a page in a new
tab and therefore will prevent the page animation from fading out
the body content, in case the user wants to go back to that page
again.
We were incorrectly reporting active bots as non-active in
popovers, and we had no test coverage for cross-realm bots.
We also rename the function to is_active_user_for_popover,
since the old name, realm_user_is_active_human_or_bot, suggested
the wrong semantics for cross-realm bots.
Last but not least, we only do a blueslip warning if a user id
is not found. When lookups fail, we are pretty confident that
the user is not active, so an error is overkill. We can change
that as part of issue #7120.
Fixes#7153
Wherever possible, we always want to move checking for error
conditions to the views code, so that we don't need to worry about
handling failures with (in this case) a user that's half-created
because a DefaultStreamGroup doesn't exist.
