NOTE: If you revert this commit, you want to revert
the immediately prior commit as well. The history
is that Ishan made some improvements to the widget,
but there were some minor bugs. I decided not
to squash the commits together so that the git
history is clear who did what. (In particular, I
want questions about the JS code to come to me if
somebody does `git blame`.)
Anyway...
This is a fairly significant rewrite of the polling
widget, where I clean up the overall structure of
the code (including things from before the prior
fix) and try to polish the prior commit a bit as
well.
There are a few new features:
* We tell "other" users to wait for the poll
to start (if there's no question yet).
* We tip the author to say "/poll foo" (as
needed).
* We add edit controls for the question.
* We don't allow new choices until there's
a question.
On the backend, we extend the BlockQuoteProcessor's clean function that
just removes '>' from the start of each line to convert each mention to
have the silent mention syntax, before UserMentionPattern is invoked.
The frontend, however, has an edge case where if you are mentioned in
some message and you quote it while having mentioned yourself above
the quoted message, you wouldn't see the red highlight till we get the
final rendered message from the backend.
This is such a subtle glitch that it's likely not worth worrying about.
Fixes#8025.
These mentions look like regular mentions except they do not
trigger any notification for the person mentioned. These are
primarily to be used when you make a bot take an action and
the bot mentions you, or when you quote a message that mentions
you.
Fixes#11221.
AFAIK I should this never fail, hence the blueslip.error line. But it
is failing in practice when rendering user groups after looking them
up by ID, and the error handling should definitely be softer.
In between releases, the following commit introduced
a bug where we agressively scroll to the top every
place we call `ui.update_scrollbar`:
092b73d0b7
The main symptoms were that the left and right sidebars
would go to the top for things like selecting a topic,
getting activity updates from the server, and resizing
the window. It was very jarring.
The recent commit looked innocuous--the root of the problem
was the original API expressed an intent to scroll to the
top, but didn't actually do it, so it was a bug in hiding.
There are **some** occasions where it's actually appropriate
to scroll to the top, mostly around search filtering, and
in those places we now call the new `ui.reset_scrollbar`
function.
This is a bit of an emergency fix, so particularly with
the settings stuff, we may get more reports of glitches here.
The important thing here is that you almost never want to
reset the scrollTop for sidebars.
This seems like a small change (apart from all the
test changes), but it fundamentally changes how
the app finds "topic" on message objects. Now
all code that used to set "subject" now sets "topic"
on message-like objects. We convert incoming messages
to have topic, and we write to "topic" all the way up
to hitting the server (which now accepts "topic" on
incoming endpoints).
We fall back to subject as needed, but the code will
emit a warning that should be heeded--the "subject"
field is prone to becoming stale for things like
topic changes.
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.
This is the preferred way to check that a user
id belongs to the current user.
We have a recent bug where the current user's
circle doesn't turn green right away. It's not
clear this is the fix, though. (It's hard to
repro locally.)
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.
This makes it possible it include our standard markdown formatting in
one's custom profile fields, allowing for links, emphasis, emoji, etc.
Fixes#10131.
While we're at it, we remove the JSON parsing that was part of the
user field code path, since this function isn't responsible for
rendering user fields.
Previously, messages with more than one line did not parse '/me' at
the beginning of the message. Since there's a reasonable way to
render multi-line messages, this commit adds support for doing so.
This change does potentially break with the expected behavior of other
slash commands, but it seems worth providing useful functionality over
a blind focus on consistency.
Fixes#11025.
We instead get the specific fields from message
that we use. This is particularly helpful
for subject -> topic migration; we no longer
have to account for "subject" fields in
client-side templates.
This continues the effort to isolate "subject" references
to util calls.
Also, we fix a comment.
Finally, we use canonicalized operators in a switch
statement.
The `assert_message_groups_list_equal` and
`assert_message_list_equal` helpers were
always returning `true`, as they were doing
a bogus traversal of the data structures and
always comparing empty arrays, even when there
was real data.
To prevent this pitfall in the future, we assert
that the extracted data is truth-y, and for the
empty cases we just directly assert deep equality
to `[]`.
As part of giving the stream/topic fields in the
compose box longer ids, I broke the autocomplete
code that handles re-focusing the cursor after
a user hits enter. The worst symptom of this was
that we tried to send a message before compose
finished (although it wouldn't fully deliver the
message).
The new code should be a bit easier to grep for
if we rename these fields again, as we explicitly
use selector syntax.
This adds a new realm_logo field, which is a horizontal-format logo to
be displayed in the top-left corner of the webapp, and any other
places where we might want a wide-format branding of the organization.
Tweaked significantly by tabbott to rebase, fix styling, etc.
Fixing the styling of this feature's loading indicator caused me to
notice the loading indicator for the realm_icon feature was also ugly,
so I fixed that too.
Fixes#7995.
We are trying to carve room for a more specific
"user_status" concept, which refers to statuses
that users specifically set, like "I'm away".
So we call this function "update_presence_info",
which reflects that it's more about actual
"presence"--i.e. the user really is present
in the browser, even though the actual human
may not want to be disturbed.
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..
