This fixes one of our oldest important user experience issues, namely
that if you never visit the home view, the Zulip webapp would often
load "deep in the past" because the pointer had not advanced.
Fixes#1529.
When fetching older/new messages, we used to resort to the pointer
to act as anchor when message list was empty.
This appears to be an impossible case, as
`fetch_status.can_load_newer_messages`
should be false in this case and user cannot be scrolling an
empty message_list in the first case.
Hence, we raise a fatal error to inform user of the same.
The previous commit introduced a bug where it was not intuitive
for the user to scroll again.
For the current narrow, new messages were fetched again only when
scrolled to the bottom as usually there are many messages displayed.
However when the edge case mentioned in the previous commit
occured, it was not very obvious that a scroll should be done
or we could already be at the bottom and could not scroll again
to trigger a fetch.
`message_viewport.at_bottom` has a relevant comment explaining
this behaviour.
The previous commit handled the rare race condition. However,
there is a possibility that the rare race condition might occur
again while we are handling the previous condition.
This commit resolves these 2 problems by performing a re-fetch
while also resetting the `expected_max_message_id` and this
approach has two benefits:
1. The reset prevents an infinite loop, if somehow the expected
max message's id gets corrupted resulting in a situation
where the server can never send an id greater than that even
after fetching.
2. Even though we stop after just one re-fetch the race condition
might recursively occur while we handle the previous race
condition. And even though the reset prevents multiple re-fetches,
we don't have the missing message problem.
This is because we treat the next race condition as a new race
condition instead of it being a continuation of the previous.
The `expected_max_message_id` gets updated again, on receiving
a new message. Thus it can again enter the `fetch_status` block
as the reset value is updated again.
If a user sends a message while the latest batch of
messages are being fetched, the new message recieved
from `server_events` gets displayed temporarily out of
order (just after the the current batch of messages)
for the current narrow.
We could just discard the new message events if we havent
recieved the last message i.e. when `found_newest` = False,
since we would recieve them on furthur fetching of that
narrow.
But this would create another bug where the new messages
sent while fetching the last batch of messages would not
get rendered. Because, `found_newest` = True and we would
no longer fetch messages for that narrow, thus the new
messages would not get fetched and are also discarded from
the events codepath.
Thus to resolve both these bugs we use the following approach:
* We do not add the new batch of messages for the current narrow
while `has_found_newest` = False.
* We store the latest message id which should be displayed at the
bottom of the narrow in `fetch_status`.
* Ideally `expected_max_message_id`'s value should be equal to the
last item's id in `MessageListData`.
* So the messages received while `has_found_newest` = False,
will be fetched later and also the `expected_max_message_id`
value gets updated.
* And after fetching the last batch where `has_found_newest` = True,
we would again fetch messages if the `expected_max_message_id` is
greater than the last message's id found on fetching by refusing to
update the server provided `has_found_newest` = True in `fetch_status`.
Another benefit of not discarding the events is that the
message gets processed not rendered i.e. we still get desktop
notifications and unread count updates.
Fixes#14017
We refactor these 2 notices to match with the loading indicators,
thus they have been moved to `message_scroll.js`.
After a successful message fetch, we have logic to decide whether
we want to display the notices and also whether we want to hide
the loading indicators (which are already displayed).
We also conservatively hide the notices similar to the indicators
every time we narrow.
The only exception is that we show the history limit notice on
deactivating the narrow (visiting `home_msg_list`).
This commit makes the `loading_older_messages_indicator` similar
to the `loading_newer_messages_indicator`.
Now all the decisions about whether to show a loading indicator
will be made from the `fetch_status` API. We still hide the
indicators everytime the view is changed, as explained in the
previous commit.
The changes made here are as follows:
* We rename `show_history_limit_message` and `hide_history_limit_message`
to `show_history_limit_notice` and `hide_history_limit_notice`
respectively.
* We rename `hide_or_show_history_limit_message` to
`update_top_of_narrow_notices` as now this function is responsible
for updating the history limit notice as well the end of results
notice.
* We extract 2 functions responsible for hiding and showing the end
of results notice, similar to that of the history limit notice.
All instances of `$(".all-messages-search-caution").hide();` are
replaced with the call of `hide_end_of_results_notice` function.
* Add action to mute topics.
* We don't need to store muted data per topic as previously planned.
* Moved launch topic test to the top so that they run on non-modified
data.
In the past, the anchor message has always been the same as the
pointer, but we're about to change that as part of removing the
pointer entirely.
Using the anchor is logically what we meant, anyway, since we always
want to select a message that's actually within the range we just
fetched.
This was implemented in 2012 to avoid showing a loading indicator for
fetching messages for users with no message history. However, the
Zulip onboarding UI always creates some message history, and fetching
history is fast, so this is likely clutter more than a useful
optimization.
The activity.process_loaded_messages code path was called when these
tests were originally written in f8e0137. We stopped calling that
code path in 43e5b2d (#15118). This assert test code is no longer
relevant; tested by adding console.log in the function. I came
across this when working on removing activity from the window.
The reason for this change is that, this is where `Filter` and
actual tracking of what messages are contiguous lives. This
will be beneficial when we will to move to a model where we
cache `MessageListData` objects for a large number of views.
We had a bunch of places where we
were calling `resize.resize_bottom_whitespace`
with no arguments, which has been a no-op
since the below commit that removed support
for our `autoscroll_forever` option:
fa44d2ea69
With the `autoscroll_forever` options things
like opening/closing the compose box could
alter how much bottom whitespace you'd want,
but we stopped supporting that feature in
2017.
Since then bottom_whitespace has just always
been 40% of the viewport size. So we only need
to change it on actual resize events.
It's worth noting that we still call
`resize_bottom_whitespace` indirectly in many
places, via `resize_page_components`, and
the latter actually causes
`resize_bottom_whitespace` to do real work,
but that work is redundant for most of those
codepaths, since they're not triggered by
changes to the viewport. So there are other
opportunities for cleanup.
We already have a loading indicator for fetching older
messages. Thus it makes sense to implement the same
for displaying newer messages.
We set the display of `bottom-messages-logo` to none,
to prevent displaying two loading indicators during
the initial message load.
Fixes#15060.
Add methods to extract recent topics from received messages.
Process new messages as they are received.
Use new messages received from the server to extract recent_topics.
Node tests added.
We now treat util like a leaf module and
use "require" to import it everywhere it's used.
An earlier version of this commit moved
util into our "shared" library, but we
decided to wait on that. Once we're ready
to do that, we should only need to do a
simple search/replace on various
require/zrequire statements plus a small
tweak to one of the custom linter checks.
It turns out we don't really need util.js
for our most immediate code-sharing goal,
which is to reuse our markdown code on
mobile. There's a little bit of cleanup
still remaining to break the dependency,
but it's minor.
The util module still calls the global
blueslip module in one place, but that
code is about to be removed in the next
few commits.
I am pretty confident that once we start
sharing things like the typeahead code
more aggressively, we'll start having
dependencies on util. The module is barely
more than 300 lines long, so we'll probably
just move the whole thing into shared
rather than break it apart. Also, we
can continue to nibble away at the
cruftier parts of the module.
predicate is expected to return a function, not a boolean. The
boolean true was causing _.filter to match items with a property named
"true", which is definitely not what was intended. Matching no items
is probably also not intended, but matching every item causes the test
to fail.

This commit was originally automatically generated using `tools/lint
--only=eslint --fix`. It was then modified by tabbott to contain only
changes to a set of files that are unlikely to result in significant
merge conflicts with any open pull request, excluding about 20 files.
His plan is to merge the remaining changes with more precise care,
potentially involving merging parts of conflicting pull requests
before running the `eslint --fix` operation.

The approach taken here is basically use user IDs in operator that
support it when sending the request for fetching the messages
(see comments in code for more details).
We now have two functions:
add_new_messages
add_old_messages
This is a lot easier on the eyes, and it will also
prevent us from exceeding line length in future commits.
We also remove an unneeded stub in the narrow_activate
tests.
When there is some error in connecting to server(more specifically to the
tornado server) the "Unable to connect to Zulip" connection error message
gets cleared as Django server could send the response of "get" request of
old messages and hence get_old_messages_success hides the error message
even though the connection is not properly established.
Fixes: #5599.
We used to have positional parameters for table_name
and filter, but we don't use them for message_list.all
and we're about to replace filter in some cases.
Passing everything in on opts is more consistent and
self-documenting in the calling code, plus lots of
unit tests can get away with passing in `{}` now
for situations where table_name does not matter.
All of our callers pass in muting_enabled, so we
remove the default value for it. And then the
collapse_messages variable doesn't have to live on
`this` as it's only being passed through down to the
view.
This run_test helper sets up a convention that allows
us to give really short tracebacks for errors, and
eventually we can have more control over running
individual tests. (The latter goal has some
complications, since we often intentionally leak
setup in tests.)
Most of this was straightforward.
Most functions that were grabbed verbatim and whole from
the original class still have one-line wrappers.
Many functions are just-the-data versions of functions that
remain in MessageList: see add, append, prepend, remove as
examples. In a typical pattern the MessageList code becomes
super simple:
prepend: function MessageList_prepend(messages) {
var viewable_messages = this.data.prepend(messages);
this.view.prepend(viewable_messages);
},
Two large functions had some minor surgery:
triage_messages =
top half of add_messages +
API to pass three lists back
change_message_id =
original version +
two simple callbacks to list
For the function update_muting_and_rerender(), we continue
to early-exit if this.muting_enabled is false, and we copied
that same defensive check to the new function
named update_items_for_muting(), even though it's technically
hidden from that codepath by the caller.
This tests the initialize() function for now.
It goes deep on this:
* uses "mostly real" message lists
* asserts on fetch parameters
It stubs out many modules that aren't really central to
the logic of fetching. In particular, when messages are
processed, we notify things like the buddy list that messages
have been added.
