Previously, we were checking if a particular user was the current user
in dozens of places in the codebase, and correct case-insensitive
checks were not used consistently, leading to bugs like #502.
In order to genericize use of Zulip outside companies,
all instances of coworkers have been changed to users.
NOTABLE EXCEPTION: When the Zulip instance is domain-
locked, the reference to coworkers remains. The reason
for this is twofold: first, the majority of Zulip instances
which require a particular domain will be locked to a
company, and second, the template variable for the domain
necessary should be added to the alert so it is clear
to the user what the domain needs to be for access.
Fixes: #861.
Previously, the user list would remain filtered after a user hit enter
to start composing a message to a user, leaving them in a state with a
partial user list.
Fixes#360.
Move recenter_pointer_on_display, suppress_scroll_pointer_update,
fast_forward_pointer, furthest_read, and server_furthest_read to
a new pointer module in pointer.js.
Previously, the Zulip subscriptions page's error bar would always be
at the very top of the scrollable view, and thus would likely be out
of view when an error happened. This fixes it by having the error bar
always placed below the search box (and thus visible regardless of
where in the scrollable streams view we are).
Fixes: #515.
[commit message and comments expanded by tabbott]
It's always been the case that in production, Tornado dumps all the
event queues when shut down so that they can be reloaded by the
replacement Tornado process. This never worked in development because
the codepath for auto-reload didn't go through either a signal or
sys.exit (it re-execs the process instead).
This meant that we didn't have a mechanism for testing the event queue
dump/load functionality in the development environment. We fix this
by adding such dumping/loading. However, this breaks the automatic
reloading of open browser windows on a server restart, so we add that
back in by adjusting the special `restart` events to pass a special
`immediate` flag when used in development.
This also has the benefit of removing the "Bad event queue" errors one
would get on every file save induced restart on the Python console.
Apparently it isn't always the case that removal of jquery and the DOM
prevents cleanup_event_queue from being called via the postunload
hook, so add a check to avoid it being double-called.
Previously, the browser might restart a get_events operation even
while it was in the middle of executing a `DELETE /events` query to
cause its event queue to be de-allocated. This was a rare race
condition when we weren't notifying clients when event queues were
de-allocated, but this will become a common case in the next commit.
