The previous batch of improvements to this code path in
6562ea94e4 introduced a race bug where:
- You navigate to a narrowed view; Zulip renders cached data from
`all_messages_data` that we know is current, but
`fetch_status.has_found_newest` is initialized to `false`
nonetheless.
- The bottom is visible, triggering the check for whether the view
should be marked as read.
- `fetch_status.has_found_newest` is still `false`, and so we
incorrectly refuse to mark as read.
- We finish fetching data from the server, do the background rerender
for that (with no changes), but that doesn't trigger a re-check for
whether the bottom is visible.
There's several ways to address this, but most correct to me is to not
check fetch_status in this particular code path.
The same reasoning applies to the navigate.js call sites.
This should help reduce the risk of hitting rate limits when users
have a very large number of messages to fetch via this mechanism.
Inline the `messages` variable that was only used in one place while
we're touching this.
I was not able to reproduce obviously badly broken behavior from these
logic bugs, but after the renaming of message_viewport helpers in the
last few commits, it's clear that this logic was trying to check if
we're actually at the start/end of the possibly message feed, not just
the rendered portion, and doing so incorrectly.
So far, there were 2 separate turndown rules for code blocks; one for
general ones, and the other for Zulip message code blocks.
Now the filter rule has been generalised to handle both cases together.
As a side effect, the bug where partially copied Zulip code blocks
lost formatting on pasting has been fixed.
As discussed in the new comments, we had a bug where the
system-initiated animated scroll that happens when the compose box
opens as a result of narrowing would race with the internal
rerendering that occurs when the message_fetch request asking the
server for additional data returns.
The correct fix for this is just to open the compose box, if we're
going to do so, before setting the user's scroll position in the
narrowing/rendering process.
This ends up being a UI improvement (in that the compose box is
available for typing a bit earlier) as well as avoiding both the risk
of this race as well as the bad UX of adjusting the user's scroll
position multiple times as part of entering the view.
This does not address an as-yet-unknown bug wherein the animated
scroll that occurs when opening the compose box, when racing with a
background rerender, results in a bogus ending scroll position, though
it's easy to see how that might occur given that rerendering does
clear the DOM briefly.
Needed for typescript, because we want to preserve
types, so instead of mutating a message object,
we can instead calculate return these values
for a message object before it's created in full.
This commit also renames apply_markdown

Since notifications have limited space for the contents of a message,
a quote from a previous message, or elsewhere, can take up most of the
notification, leaving little room for the actual message, and reducing
the usefulness of the notification.
To fix this, we collapse blockquotes and "user said" paragraphs to make
space for the actual message.
From `get_current_nth_hash_section` `get_nth_hash_section()` is
extracted to allow for reuse for any hash. The indexing is also changed
to 0-based and negative indexing also works now.
This is a prep commit for the next, where `get_nth_hash_section()` will
be used in a new function with negative indexing.
Also, makes small updates to `next_plan_forms_support.html`.
Removes unneeded "btn" and "btn-default" classes, and updates
the placeholder text for the input as not marked for translation.
So far, when ordering typeahead suggestions, any query matches that did
not occur at the start of the target string were considered equally. So
for example, for the query "ok", "squared_ok" and "smoking" were
allotted equal priority, which does not make sense.
Now, matches from a word boundary (space, hyphen, underscore or slash)
are given priority (after exact matches and beginning matches), so that
in the above example, "squared_ok" is regarded as a better match than
"smoking".
Since recipients' sorting is complex, and needs word boundary matches
separately for decoupled sorting post triage, `triage_raw` is extracted
from `triage` to return the raw matches.
Fixes: #24127.
Though the correct mapping for Alt in Mac is Option, we had so far been
mapping it to Command, since for the 2 pre-existing shortcuts that used
Alt, Command was the only key that worked on Mac. However, these are
exceptions.
Now we map Alt to Option, and handle the 2 exceptions separately, using
data attributes on those shortcut elements.
This is a prep commit for introducing a hotkey that uses Alt / Option.
This will prevent any message we want to select after narrowing
from being offscreen entirely or partially.
Steps to reproduce the bug:
* `./manage.py populate_db -n 3000 --max-topics=2`
* Narrow to a stream and scroll high up.
* Align two recipient bars together with nothing between them.
* Click on the first recipient bar after keeping the selected message
on the second recipient bar.
* You will see that the selected message is not in view.
Fixes#26774.
We don't need the today argument anymore since every value passed to
it was a new Date() except the tests where we are using MockDate now.
All message view has `in-home` filter and is not empty.
If there are no terms provided, we set filter to display
all messages (including muted streams/topics).
We make it mandatory to provide terms to Filter.
For compose state variables `last_focused_compose_type_input` and
`message_type` that are assigned non-boolean values on user interaction,
`undefined` is the semantically better choice than `false` for
initialisation, to avoid incorrect boolean implications.
When pasting any code without any newlines, whether from a code block or
a code span, it will always be pasted as inline code.
That is, a line of code copied from within a code span will retain code
span formatting on paste, and a line of code copied from within a code
block will be pasted as inline code, instead of a 1 line code block.
