Adds possibility for users to use | as an OR-operator (besides ,)
when searching for other users.
This is a thing reasonable folks might try, and | in the thing to
search for isn't a realisitic possibility, so there's no real downside
to adding this.
Fixes#4109.
This is a pure data function, so it shouldn't be in popovers.js file
(Steve Howell added test coverage here, and tabbott removed an
accidental functional change.)
Fixes#11589.
Adds SCSS style for the "unavailable" user status and enables its
usage in `buddy_data.js`.
The style is a red circle with a horizontal line. The values might
look a bit 'magic' but they were considered carefully ` height` of
1px was too thin, 2px was too thick, thus 1.5px was chosen.
We now have a function get_user_circle_class
that returns one of these values:
"user_circle_green"
"user_circle_orange"
"user_circle_empty"
And we put that in the templates.
And then CSS renders the circle of the appropriate
color.
The unit tests now explicitly capture whether
we are rendering the correct kind of circle.
When you hover over a user that has set a user
status, we now show something like "out to lunch."
You can test this in the console by doing:
user_status.server_update({status_text: 'out to lunch'})
And then hover over your name in the buddy list.
This is mostly for testing purposes. The code
structure here is pretty stable--we will probably
always use level() here to either sort or
group users, and being able to test it directly
is nice, rather than bringing in all the other
machinery.
The current user gets excluded from all non-empty
searches, even ones that match the user, since
it can look funny when the user's at the top of a
search, and you'd never need to search for yourself
(again, since the current user is at the top of
the buddy list).
Apparently, we didn't have one of these, and thus had a moderate
number of generally very old violations in the codebase. Fix this and
clear the ones that exist..
For many years we have been excluding the current user
from the buddy list, since their presence is kind
of implicit, and it saves a line of real estate.
This commit removes various user-is-me checks
and puts the user back for the following reasons:
* explicit is better
* newbies will be less confused when they
can see they're actually online
* even long-time users like myself will
feel more comfortable if it's just there
* having yourself in the buddy list facilitates
things like checking your presence or sending
yourself a message
* showing "me" reinforces the meaning of the
green circle (if my circle is green and I'm
active, then others with green circles must
be active too)
* If you're literally the first user in the
realm, you can now see what the buddy list
looks like and try out the chevron menu.
The biggest tradeoff here is the opportunity cost.
For an org with more people than fit on the screen,
we put the Nth person below the fold to show "me".
I think that's fine--users can still scroll or
search.
This commit doesn't do anything special with the
current user in terms of sorting them higher in the
list or giving specific styling.
Fixes#10476
We now keep track of keys in buddy_list.js, so that
when we insert/remove items, we no longer need to
traverse all the DOM. Instead, we just find out
which position in the list we need to insert the
key in (where "key" is "user_id") and then find
the relevant DOM node directly and insert the new
HTML before that node. (And of course we still
account for the "append" case.)
There's a little more bookkeeping to make this
happen, but it should help reduce some code in
upcoming commits and pave the way toward
progressive rendering optimizations.
This commit should produce a minor speedup
for activity-related events that go through
buddy_list.insert_or_move(), since we are
not traversing the DOM to find insertion points
any more.
This will be useful for lazy rendering, where our
buddy_list widget already knows the keys (aka "userids")
it wants to render as you start scrolling them into
view.
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.
When we populate the buddy list or update it for activity, we now
have buddy_data set a faded flag that is rendered in the template.
This avoids some re-rendering overhead and is on the eventual path
to having our widget be more data-oriented (and all rendering happens
"behind" the widget).
We still do direct DOM updates when the compose state changes or
when we get peer subscription events.
A recent change filtered out offline users from the buddy list
whenever the list size would otherwise exceed 600.
This commit reverts half that change--we can now show 600+ users
again, but only when searching.
If we would have more than 600 people in a buddy list, it's kind of
cumbersome to scroll through it, and it's also expensive to render
it (short of doing progressive rendering, which adds a lot of
complexity).
So, as a short term measure, we filter out offline users whenever the
list would exceed 600 users. Note that if you are doing a search that
narrows to fewer 600 users, the offline users will appear again.
