This commit adds code to handle guests separately for group
based settings, where guest will only have permission if
that particular setting can be set to "role:everyone" group
even if the guest user is part of the group which is used
for that setting. This is to make sure that guests do not
get permissions for actions that we generally do not want
guests to have.
Currently the guests do not have permission for most of them
except for "Who can delete any message", where guest could
delete a message if the setting was set to a user defined
group with guest being its member. But this commit still
update the code to use the new function for all the settings
as we want to have a consistent pattern of how to check whether
a user has permission for group-based settings.
We previously passed the UserGroupRaw type object received in
the user group creation event to user_group_edit.add_group_to_table
instead of the UserGroup type object.
The add_group_to_table function is called after receiving creation
event only, but other functions called later in the flow are called
at other times as well like when opening edit panel for a particular
group and they expect UserGroup type object, so this commit fixes it.
This commit introduced 'creator' and 'date_created'
fields in user groups, allowing users to view who
created the groups and when.
Both fields can be null for groups without creator data.
This provides significant size savings:

Since these are the largest assets that we ship to clients, it is
worth shaving off every byte we can.
This is part of a bigger refactor to calculate message container
attributes just from the message, so that we can create the message
container all at once instead of piecewise, to be able to convert
to typescript.

Previously, in presence of `dm` operators, the `with` operator
behaviour in the web client was not consistent with that of
the API. For instance, when `with` points to a stream message,
in presence of a `dm` term, then rather than narrowing to the
corresponding channel of `with` operand, the `with` term simply
used to be ignored, and narrowed to the corresponding `dm`
narrow.
Also, in cases when the `with` used to point to a direct message,
in presence of a `channel` term, then after correcting to the
right narrow, the `with` term used to be removed. The `with`
term would still be needed after correcting the narrow to
maintain consistency between channel and dm conversations.
This commit removes these inconsistencies of `with` in case
of `dm` operators, and makes it consistent to those mentioned
in the api documentation.
Shows a stream info popover whenever a channel pill is clicked (such
as in the pill widgets for adding subscribers to a channel or
invitations). The stream info popover contains channel icon and name,
channel description and a link to channel settings.
Fixes#30567.
If we receive a message that we can add to the data cache without
talking to the server, we do that, otherwise we remove it from the
cache to avoid us having wrong filter status cached.
We start caching MessageListData objects for the narrows which
user has visited. We restore the cached objects if the filters
match. Also, the cached objects are updated based on events. One
major piece is update path the is pending implementation is the
message move code path.
This param allows clients to specify how much presence history they want
to fetch. Previously, the server always returned 14 days of history.
With the recent migration of the presence API to the much more efficient
system relying on incremental fetches via the last_update_id param added
in #29999, we can now afford to provide much more history to clients
that request it - as all that historical data will only be fetched once.
There are three endpoints involved:
- `/register` - this is the main useful endpoint for this, used by API
clients to fetch initial data and register an events queue. Clients can
pass the `presence_history_limit_days` param here.
- `/users/me/presence` - this endpoint is currently used by clients to
update their presence status and fetch incremental data, making the new
functionality not particularly useful here. However, we still add the
new `history_limit_days` param here, in case in the future clients
transition to using this also for the initial presence data fetch.
- `/` - used when opening the webapp. Naturally, params aren't passed
here, so the server just assumes a value from
`settings.PRESENCE_HISTORY_LIMIT_DAYS_FOR_WEB_APP` and returns
information about this default value in page_params.
This commit makes small refactoring to place all the user-privacy
settings code in 'server_events_dispatch.js' at one place and use
a common function 'settings_account.update_privacy_settings_box' to
update the UI.
This also helps in early return instead of executing a lot
of `if` statements related to user-preferences settings.
Previously, on narrowing to a direct message using the `with`
operator, we used to end up at the last message rather than
the last unread message.
This was because while correcting the narrow using the `with`
operand, we used to consider all the users of `display_recipient`.
This would also include the `current_user`. This is not right because
the unread messages for direct messages are bucketed with a
`user_ids_string`, that does not include the user id of the current
user. Hence, when looked up for the last unread id by the `with`
operator, it used to return undefined.
This is fixed by removing the current user's user id from the user ids
string if current user is not the only display recipient to the
direct message.
Previously the empty view banner for DM with any recipients
contained "Why not start the conversation".
For deactivated users/bots, we are now not displaying it.
Earlier when compose box was opened or narrowed to pm, the recipient
pills were sorted according to user email strings instead of their
full names which was inconsistent with compose box placeholder text,
recipient row and message header.
This commit fixes the behaviour by introducing a `sort_email`
function to sort emails according to their full names and display
sorted pills.
Fixes: zulip#27375.

Earlier in drafts overlay, the order of pm recipients for the draft
was sorted differently to that of the pm group title.
This commit fixes the behaviour by sorting the drafts pm recipients
using `make_strcmp`.

Earlier, when narrowed to a group direct message, the header title
was sorted with respect to its email instead of their names. This
would result in message header and recipient row having different
order of recipients.
This commit fixes the behaviour by changing the order of the names
passed for the group message header using `make_strcmp`.
Fixes part of zulip#27375.
We're going to need to be able to build the message list view
in pieces and put it all together in the end, instead of assigning
values directly to a half-formed object (which is hard to type).
This is part of the work towards that.
This commit adds '*' as a keyboard shortcut to navigate to the starred messages view and the shortcut is documented in various required locations accordingly.
Fixes#31397.
This commit updates code to live update the groups UI if
realm or group level setting to manage groups is changed.
This commit also does some refactoring to better organize the
code in different functions.
And also, the code to hide/disable the UI if the user does not
have permission to manage the group in JS such that the same code
is used for live-updating as well.
Earlier there was only a realm level setting for configuring
who can edit user groups. A new group level setting is also added
for configuring who can manage that particular group.
Now, a user group can be edited by a user if it is allowed from
realm level setting or group level setting.
This commit make changes in frontend to also use group level setting
in determining whether a group can be edited by user or not and disables
changing the group settings when group cannot be edited by user.
Earlier in frontend there was a single function to determine whether
user can create and edit user groups.
This commit adds a separate function for determining group creation
permissions.
This commit make changes in code to include can_manage_group
field to UserGroup objects passed with response of various endpoints
including "/register" endpoint and also in the group object
send with user group creation event.
