This makes it possible to mention a user with a name like Gaël that
contains diacritics by typing e.g. "Gael", significantly reducing the
need to use a special keyboard to mention other users.
Fixes#11183.
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.
We want to avoid `blueslip.error` in cases where
the root cause could just be bad data that is
human-entered.
There are a few callers here who **should** be
sending good data all the time, but hopefully
they either have good test coverage, other
obvious failure symptoms, or, ideally, just
do what the user would mostly expect in the
face of bad data.
Internally we generally omit our own id and email
in data structures related to PMs, except when we
are the sender, but if we receive "perma links"
we will need to filter out our id.
This commit exposes the function is_duplicate_full_name()
that can be used to discern if we cannot identify a user
just by their full name in the interface and have to use
his user id as well to distinguish them from other users.
This is part of work to break some of our
nastier circular dependencies in preparation
for our es6 migration.
This commit should facilitate loading leaf-like
modules such as people.js before all of the things
that reload.js depends on.
This was supposed to be suppressed when a reload is in progress,
however, the logic was accidentally checking that
reload.is_in_progress was a defined function, not whether a reload was
actually in progress.
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.
Fixes#3380.
The blueslip warning mentioned in #3380 were from paths ending at
people.email_list_to_user_ids_string. Some additional blueslip warnings
were raised after using that function.
Although we can put a validation check somewhere in the call stack of
people.email_list_to_user_ids_string, this function itself is used to
validate the operand by the higher order functions, so it wouldn't make
sense to put a validation check before that. Instead, removing the
blueslip warning altogether was chosen.
people.email_list_to_user_ids_string was replaced by
people.reply_to_to_user_ids_string which is a blueslip-free version
of the same. Other blueslip warnings were removed.
If the browser is in the progress of reloading when it finishes
fetching some messages, it's not really a bug, and we shouldn't report
it as such.
This should help make Zulip's browser error reporting less spammy.
Also adds a custom rule to eslint. Since the recommended way of extending
eslint is to create plugins as standalone npm packages, the separate rule
is published as 'eslint-plugins-empty-returns'.
Fixes#8669.
This change prepares us to have the server send avatar_url
of None when somebody wants a gravatar avatar (as opposed
to a user-uploaded one).
Subsequent commits will change behavior on both the server
and client to have this happen. So this commit has no-op
code for now, but it will soon use the fallback-to-gravatar
logic.
This commit is easy to revert if we want to tone down errors
to warnings for the short term, while our codepath still does
proper handling for adding users when they come in messages.
This logic used to be in extract_people_from_message(), but
we are deprecating extract_people_from_message(), whereas
the maybe_incr_recipient_count() function has logic that we
want to keep.
This change is the first step in making it so that we load
non-active users at page load time in the webapp.
Before this change, we would reactively handle deactivated
users when we saw them as senders in messages. Subsequent
changes will make it a warning if we see unknown senders
in messages.
We were incorrectly reporting active bots as non-active in
popovers, and we had no test coverage for cross-realm bots.
We also rename the function to is_active_user_for_popover,
since the old name, realm_user_is_active_human_or_bot, suggested
the wrong semantics for cross-realm bots.
Last but not least, we only do a blueslip warning if a user id
is not found. When lookups fail, we are pretty confident that
the user is not active, so an error is overkill. We can change
that as part of issue #7120.
Fixes#7153
It's easier to unit test logic inside of people.js than compose.js.
We allow users to compose emails to any of our cross-realm bots.
Someday we may tighten up which cross-realm bots are valid targets,
since it's not necessarily the case that those bots do anything
useful when you send them messages.
This dictionary includes bots, so the reference to
"people" in the name `realm_people_dict` was misleading.
We omit `realm` for brevity sake--it's usually the case
that folks implementing new features can safely ignore
cross-realm bots, and it's on our roadmap to move those
bots into the realm.
The function name `get_realm_human_user_ids` was a lie--it
includes active bots as well.
The only user of this function is `activity.js`, which wasn't
impacted by the misleading name, because we eventually filter
out bots in the `info_for` function.
It's possible that we actually want to include bots in the right
sidebar, since they can be difficult to discover in other parts
of the UI. Or, if we want to keep the right sidebar as all
human users, we may eventually want to make the logic to exclude
bots happen higher in the stack (but for real, this time).
Apparently this is a bug that slipped in when we started showing
normal users as deactivated in the user popovers: all bot users were
treated that way as well.
We'll want to do #7153 as a follow-up to get things fully working how
we want them.
This allows user to view all group private conversation messages
with a specific user. That is, it views all the the group private
messages from groups which include the given user.
Add search suggestion for group-pm-with. Add operator name
and description in "Search operators" tab.
Add change in tab name to "Group Messages" when using this operator.
Add frontend_tests for group-pm-with search operator.
Fixes: #3882.
It's not always clear whether user_ids are strings or integers, so
we explicitly convert them to integers for sorting when creating
keys for PMs.
To keep the tests passing, this commit removes some unneeded
defensive code in message_store.js that only applies to contrived
test input.
We had a theory that get_user_id() errors were often due to race
conditions related to reloads, so we would only report missing
user ids if subsequent lookups failed 5 seconds later. It turns
out we still get the blueslip errors, and now we don't get
meaningful tracebacks. This change makes it so that errors
get reported immediately again.
In f75af94984 I added some
lines of code that made it so that live updates for avatar
urls would affect messages currently in the browser.
This change worked well when the live update actually happened,
but then the next time the user would reload, the avatar in
the message pane would regress back to showing the avatar urls
from the server (which could have caching issues of their own).
This fix removes a couple lines of code that had the intended
effect of making all of your messages from any given sender
show the same url (good) but which generally grabbed
the url from an old message (bad).
After this fix, we go back to having old messages possibly
showing the old avatar urls, but new messages will display the
new avatar.
(There are lots of moving parts in the avatar system, because
not only do browsers cache image urls, but our server caches
messages and recipient info, so there have been "fixes" to
avatars since this change that are valid fixes in their own
right but not directly relevant to this commit.)
We use to have client-side logic that would append timestamps
or random numbers to avatar URLs to force browsers to
refresh their cache.
We no longer need this now that the back end maintains
versions for avatar changes and puts the version in the URLs.
When we process messages for unread counts, we now call
people.pm_reply_user_string() to get a string of user ids,
rather than using emails that may have changed since the
message was originally created.
We now convert our pm-with search operand to a list of user ids
for matching against messages, rather than using emails. On the
message side we look at user ids from display_recipient.
We have added people.pm_with_url(message), which computes a
PM url from a private message using user ids rather than emails.
We call this in add_message_metadata(), since the slugs will
be valid even if emails change, so we don't need to compute
them on the fly during message rendering.
The function people.update_email() is not yet connected
to anything, but it sets the stage for upcoming changes.
When emails get updated, fundamentally we just update
the appropriate person object and add a new key to
people_dict. We sort of get a shim for free--old email
lookups will continue to work--but we add blueslip warnings
for stale lookups.
We now trigger an event in user_events.js, and we dynamically
build the list of names in pm_list.js by calling out to
people.get_recipients().
We have a few variations of functions that build lists of names
for huddles, which should be cleaned up eventually. They are
called at different times in the code path, so the different
functions, while doing mostly the same thing, start with different
data sources.
The function people.filter_by_search_terms() used
to return a JS object with emails as keys to represent
a set of users. Now we return a Zulip Dict() object
with user_ids as keys.
Most of the magic happens in message_live_update.update_avatar().
The prior code was buggy, as it was using person.id instead of
person.user_id, and it was not setting the image resolution.
This change is a partial bug fix for avatar live updates.
It makes it so that we prefer the person.avatar_url to
the message.avatar_url when rendering messages. Our live
update code was already populating person.avatar_url, but
we were ignoring it until now.
This commit does not affect messages that were already
rendered with the old url.
If we get a realm_user update for a user that is **not**
changing their full name, we no longer call
admin.update_user_full_name().
This was probably a fairly minor bug.
Earlier commits removed all uses of page_params.email outside
of people.js, and it turns out we have page_params.user_id, so
we don't even need page_params.email for seeding the data.
The local echo code now marks up mention buttons with user ids
instead of email. Our code in message_list_view.js deals with
either the old style or the new style of markup now to determine
which mention buttons need to be highlighted.
As part of this commit we extract mention_button_refers_to_me().
This commit doesn't change any behavior yet, but it starts us
down the road of deprecating page_params.email and allowing
people.js to control all access to the current user's email,
which will be important for email changes.
In people.emails_strings_to_user_ids_string, we just warn
for bad emails going forward.
Users can enter bad emails into the search location bar,
for example, and that causes us to compute a browser hash,
which in turn uses this function.
(It's possible that we should adjust the search code not
to compute hashes for narrowing when the narrow doesn't
make sense, but that could be a non-trivial fix.)
The slugs for PM-with narrows now have user ids in them, so they
are more resilient to email changes, and they have less escaping
characters and are generally prettier.
Examples:
narrow/pm-with/3-cordelia
narrow/pm-with/3,5-group
The part of the URL that is actionable is the comma-delimited
list of one or more userids.
When we decode the slugs, we only use the part before the dash; the
stuff after the dash is just for humans. If we don't see a number
before the dash, we fall back to the old decoding (which should only
matter during a transition period where folks may have old links).
For group PMS, we always say "group" after the dash. For single PMs,
we use the person's email userid, since it's usually fairly concise
and not noisy for a URL. We may tinker with this later.
Basically, the heart of this change is these two new methods:
people.emails_to_slug
people.slug_to_emails
And then we unify the encode codepath as follows:
narrow.pm_with_uri ->
hashchange.operators_to_hash ->
hashchange.encode_operand ->
people.emails_to_slug
The decode path didn't really require much modication in this commit,
other than to have hashchange.decode_operand call people.slug_to_emails
for the pm-with case.
When somebody changes their name, we will now update
the buddy list right away. The old code was trying
to do this through a code path that was designed for
true presence updates, but it was also passing in an
empty array, instead of undefined, which caused it to
fail to invoke the intended part of the codepath to
redraw the buddy list.
Now we just call the new activity.redraw() function,
which does the right thing for the buddy list.
The group PM list was live-updating before this change,
and it continues to live-update as part of the new
activity.redraw() function.
This commit extracts people.extract_people_from_message()
from message_store.add_message_metadata(), and now
add_message_metadata() extract people before it calls
process_message_for_recent_private_messages(), which
fixes a bug where we are trying to look up an email
for a deactivated user who was in the message but not
in the pre-loaded list of people.
Fixes#2701
This commit changes people.remove() to be people.deactivate(),
and it fixes a bug where deactivating users was causing tracebacks
in the PM list if somebody had PM'ed the deactivated user
recently.
We need this for node tests, so that you don't have to explicitly
remove every user between tests. (Also, people.remove() is about
to have different semantics.)
We now sort lists of users ids deterministically, and we also
sort list of emails deterministically and without regard to case.
This probably fixes the bug #2343, although I never got a great
repro on that.
If I try to send a message to an unknown user (which is possible
for some types of realms), then I simply ignore them during the
send codepath, so that I don't later need to patch up their attributes.
We no longer store pm_recipient_count on person objects, but we
instead use a Dict to store them. Then the new API is this:
people.get_recipient_count()
people.incr_recipient_count()
We now send dictionaries for cross-realm bots. This led to the
following changes:
* Create get_cross_realm_dicts() in actions.py.
* Rename the page_params field to cross_realm_bots.
* Fix some back end tests.
* Add cross_realm_dict to people.js.
* Call people.add for cross-realm bots (if they are not already part of the realm).
* Remove hack to add in feedback@zulip.com on the client side.
* Add people.is_cross_realm_email() and use it in compose.js.
* Remove util.string_in_list_case_insensitive().
This sends an event when a new avatar is uploaded that refreshes the
avatar for all browser clients without the need to reload the browser.
Fixes: #1359.
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.
Since it's basically impossible to add a person with an
undefined full_name--even "skeleton" people--there is no
need to check the full_name field to short circuit reify(),
because it will always be defined.
