When moving a topic within a stream that is deactivated, the stream
may not be present in stream_data. Avoid throwing an exception in
this situation by leaving stream_name as undefined; existing logic
seems to anticipate that as a possibility, so we don't need a broader
change.
Longer term, we may want to just send to clients basic data about
archived streams that the user has access to.
Fixes: #17271
This reduces the complexity of our dependency graph.
It also makes sub_store.get parallel to message_store.get.
For both you pass in the relevant id to get the
full validated object.
This reduces our dependency on message_list code (via
message_util), and it makes moving streams/topics and
deleting messages more performant.
For every single message that was being updated or
deleted, the previous code was basically re-computing
lots of things, including having to iterate through
every message in memory to find the messages matching
your topic.
Now everything basically happens in O(1) time.
The only O(N) computation is that we now lazily
re-compute the max message id every time you need it
for typeahead logic, and then we cache it for
subsequent use. The N here is the number of messages
that the particular sender has sent to the particular
stream/topic combination, so it should always be quite
small, except for certain spammy bots.
Once the max has been calculated, the common operation
of adding a message doesn't invalidate our cached
value. We only invalidate the cache on deletes.
The main change that we make here from a data
standpoint is that we just keep track of all
message_ids for all senders. The storage overhead here
should be negligible. By keeping track of our own
messages, we don't have to punt to other code for
update/delete situations.
There is similar code in recent_topics that I think can
be improved in similar ways, and it would allow us to
eliminate functions like this one:
export function get_messages_in_topic(stream_id, topic) {
return message_list.all
.all_messages()
.filter(
(x) =>
x.type === "stream" &&
x.stream_id === stream_id &&
x.topic.toLowerCase() === topic.toLowerCase(),
);
}
This is a prep commit for implementing mute users feature, which
renames this function to be more specific. This function cannot be
used as-is for user mutes, because for user-muted messages, we always
want to rerender the message list, irrespective of what
`excludes_muted_users` is.
In muting_ui.js, we also remove an unnecessary conditional that is
already handled by update_topic_muting_and_rerender itself.
For messages which we don't have stored locally, we don't update
our data structures. This was actually our behaviour before
59e5f2d8fc, which introduced this
bug.
Not doing this caused a major bug where we ran into errors
moving messages for topics for which we didn't have all
the messages available.
This data structure has never been one that we actually render into
the DOM; instead, its role is to support clicking into view that
contain muted streams and topics quickly.
This downgrade makes that situation much more explicit, and is also
useful refactoring to help simpify the upcoming changes in #16746.

We move the message_store.add_message_metadata function
(and all its dependencies) into a new module called
message_helper and rename the function to process_new_message.
(It does a bit more than adding message metadata, such
as updating our message store.)
We also have a "protected" interface now in message_store,
so that message_helper can access the message store:
update_message_cache
get_cached_message
Because update_message_cache is identical to
the former create_mock_message, we just renamed it
in the tests.
Most callers should use these functions:
message_helper.process_new_message (setting)
message_store.get (getting)
It's slightly annoying that the setter interface
is in a different module than the getter interface,
but that's how you break a bunch of dependencies.
We also extract the tiny message_user_ids class:
user_ids()
add_user_ids()
All the code moves here are pretty trivial, and
the code that was moved maintains 100% line
coverage.
The module name `message_helper` is not ideal, but it's a single
function and it'll save time to just do the topology change now and
leave thinking through the right name to later.
The changes made in this commit are as follows:
* The `remove_messages` is moved to the `message_events.js`
file from `ui.js`.
* We refactor `MessageListData.change_message_id` to no
longer require an `opts` parameter as this function
just returns whether we need to rerender or not.
The blueslip error block can be removed since we made
the change to no long defer the data updates in
commit 3b5ba6b2c1,
this case can no longer occur.
The changes made in this commit are as follows:
* We remove the now unused `ui.find_message` which was added
in commit 1666403850.
* We change the function paramter to now accept message ids
instead of messages to eliminate redundant message ids to
message convertion as only the id is required.
* The remove method in MessageListData did not remove the
messages from the hash, it removed only from the items,
this fixes it.
* This commit also fixes a bug where messages are not added
to the current message list if an event is recieved where
messages are moved to this current narrow.
Only the message removal logic was present, which has been
refactored in this commit.
Fixes#15992.
If the last message of the topic was deleted, we update the stored
message_id in the topic history so that the topic order in topic_list
is updated correctly.
ES and TypeScript modules are strict by default and don’t need this
directive. ESLint will remind us to add it to new CommonJS files and
remove it from ES and TypeScript modules.

On update_message events, we were changing narrow before we
locally updated the data, this resulted in a weird mismatch
between locally available data and that fetched from the server.
Ideally, we should not be requesting any data from the server
in most scenarios since the messages for new narrow is
locally available.
As a result, the new narrow didn't have any messages other than
a breadcrumb message. To fix this, we change narrow post
locally updating the data.
The original bug was not exactly reproduced, but a similar version
of it was simulated and was found to be fixed.
Tweaked by tabbott to preserve an optimization.
