I think this will fix a Casper flake where there was a race
window with multiple temp DOM elements holding copied text.
I also add a comment to the code I think causes this race
for the tests.
This commit prepares the frontend code to be consumed by webpack.
It is a hack: In theory, modules should be declaring and importing the
modules they depend on and the globals they expose directly.
However, that requires significant per-module work, which we don't
really want to block moving our toolchain to webpack on.
So we expose the modules by setting window.varName = varName; as
needed in the js files.
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 is preparation for enabling an eslint indentation configuration.
90% of these changes are just fixes for indentation errors that have
snuck into the codebase over the years; the others are more
significant reformatting to make eslint happy (that are not otherwise
actually improvements).
The one area that we do not attempt to work on here is the
"switch/case" indentation.
This reverts commit 6e048c5d3f.
See #8963 for the main issue we need to fix before re-enabling this;
basically, some combination of toMarkdown and the way text/html gets
written was introducing a lot of bonus/bogus whitespace, both in the
form of newlines and spaces converted to ` `.
On IE11, ClipboardData isn't defined; one can instead access it with
`window.clipboardData`, but that doesn't support text/html, so this
code path couldn't do anything special anyway.
So we instead just let the default paste handler run on IE11.
Fixes#8850.
Algorithm for copying messages from serveral topics was changed:
- if there are selected messages from more than 1 recipient block
then the recipient bar headers are copied;
- If there are multiple messages from only one recipient block
then recipient bar header is not copied.
Fixes#7217.
Also adds a full suite of Casper tests for the copy-paste functionality.
Also adds a custom rule to eslint. Since the recommended way of extending
eslint is to create plugins as standalone npm packages, the separate rule
is published as 'eslint-plugins-empty-returns'.
Fixes#8669.
This uses the to-markdown.js library to do all the hard work of
parsing HTML and turning it into markdown and not e.g. uploaded files.
Tweaked by tabbott to better scope when it activates to just include
pastes of HTML content.
Fixes#5853.
