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.
The message feed can take long enough to render that
users are locked out of clicking things for a second
or so. This has become especially an issue since we
updated the search bar logic to refresh the message
feed as search terms are added to the search bar.

Show user card popover for scheduled messages overlay, compose box
preview, message edit preview, message edit history.
`.messagebox` was chosen as the selector since that was the nearest
parent class that was common for all of the above.
`@all` does not have a popover and that's why it will have the same
pointer as its parent element. We also introduce a new class called
`.user-mention-all` for managing css rules specific to that mention.
We plan to remove the 'tutorial_status' field from UserProfile
table as it is no longer used to show tutorial.
The field is also used to narrow a new user in DM with
welcome bot on the first load.
This prep commit updates the logic to use a new OnboardingStep
for the narrowing behaviour on the first load. This will help
in removing the 'tutorial_status' field.
This commit extracts the "waiting_for_id" and "waiting_for_ack"
data structures of "echo.js" into a separate module in "echo_state".
This is a preparatory commit so as to be able to use them for
"stream_topic_history" module, without causing import cycles.
This commit updates the stale logic in 'toggle_topic_visibility_policy'
function. It was not updated after the addition of 'follow' visibility
policy resulting in buggy behavior.
Earlier, 'Shift + M' hotkey was working in unsubscribed channels.
This commit updates the logic to make it non-functional. This
helps to keep the UI consistent as we don't offer a way to
change visibility_policy in unsubscribed channels via
recipient_bar_controls or other UI elements.
Note: We don't implement this restriction in server because
we don't delete the user-topic states in db when a channel is
unsubscribed as it helps to retain those states when re-subscribed.
And implementing this restriction at server level can create
a confusion of why such states exists in db when API doesn't allow.
This parameter is unused for Zulip avatars, and results in a smaller
(pixel-wise) Gravatar than we use for Zulip "small" avatars. Omitting
the `s=50` parameter results in a 80x80 image, which is closer to the
100x100 image that Zulip thumbnails avatars to. Ironically, using the
default (larger) Gravatar dimensions also results in _smaller_
responses (in bytes) from Gravatar.
We are using `.val` to set compose box content which is very fast vs
`setFieldText` which is very slow due to it doing a lot of
forced repaints. The major downside of using `val` here is that
user will not able to perform `undo` operation on this which doesn't
seem something user would want to do here.
Note that this effects compose content restored from drafts,
scheduled messages and on reload.
This commit refactors the common function used for test in
such a way that we can test more cases for a group setting
along with the ones tested by the common function.
This commit is part of a bigger project to remove custom logic in
the input_pill module. This commit move us away from a world where
we have a `display_value` that's used as identifying information
for a pill as well as for what we display to the user. Now individual
widgets can configure how they come up with a display value based
on the data of that type of pill.
Note: The change in the stream pill test for setting subscribers
for denmark is fixing an issue that wasn't discoverable before.
There always should have been three subscribers.
Because the compose-box resize logic is tied to the size of the
textarea, it's possible when resizing in preview mode that the
state of the compose box is not properly tracked. That's because
the height logic in `autosize_message_content` assumes a visible
textarea.
However, because both the textarea and the message preview area
occupy the same named grid area (`message-content`), and because
the preview area comes after the textarea in the DOM, when visible,
the preview area will automatically cover (and be sized to) the
textarea. And because the textarea remains observable in the DOM,
the compose box will obey the same expansion logic in preview mode
as it does in edit mode.
We want to use render_and_show_preview in message_edit, but that will
cause a dependency cycle because of message_events. In order to avoid
the dependency cycle, the function has been moved to compose_ui and
relevant types have been added.
This commit does not audit the existing function for improvements, just
moves it around and adds types.
The `msg` and `result` are same as the other files (e.g.
activity.test.js) with success responses.
Previously animated images were automatically played in the
message feed of the web app.
Now that we have still thumbnails available for them, we can add a new
personal setting, "web_animate_image_previews", which controls how the
animated images would be played in the web app message feed -- always
played, on hover, or only in the image viewer.
Fixes#31016.
After navigating to a `near` narrow, user is likely to press back
to go back to previous selected message. To support this, we have
to select `then_select_id` without rerender, if we can.
Tested by using breakpoints with `near` links to check if the
correct code is being executed.
This adds the "New direct message" button back in the closed compose UI
for DMs view, to make the closed compose UI consistent across the app.
Since the closed compose UI is always visible, and one that is likely
to be used frequently, it makes sense to have the same UI across all
the views to avoid the mental overhead of figuring out how to compose
a message in different views.
We change the code to update the visibility of information
density setting inputs only on successful completion of
request and not on receiving events.
Visibility of inputs is not being live updated on receiving
events because that leads to flashing of inputs when deselecting
the "Compact mode" checkbox due to the data being sent in
different events and data with the client being different for
time till the all events are received.
Fixes part of #30918.
We don't need `align-self: baseline;` for `fa-envelope` set in
`message_view_header` since this is a different icon and it appears
better without it like other icons.
We also don't need the explicit font-size for switching b/w 14px and
16px mode since `zulip-icon` class takes care of that by default.
Earlier, on sending a new message in a search view it didn't
appear in that view for the sender.
This was because the message event received by the sender
was processed by 'msg_list.view.rerender_messages' which
effectively did nothing because the message is not
rendered in the first place during local echo in that
message list view.
We can't determine locally if the message should be added
to the search narrow. So, we use maybe_add_narrowed_messages
when narrowed to such views.
This fixes the bug and the message appears in the search view.
Previously, while using "with" operator, even when the narrow
was not updated by the operator, hash change requests were
made.
This commit introduces a new variable - "narrow_requires_hash_change"
which determines whether the narrow was updated and thus
requires a hash change or not.
Fixes#30862
This commit updates "filter.is_conversation_view" to be true for
"with" operator. This is important because essentially, the "with"
operator lands you in the same view as the channel-topic narrow
or the "dm" narrow i.e., the last unread message of the narrow.
Hence, the "with" narrow should be handled in a similar way
while determining whether to allow automatically marking
messages as read, or displaying the unread banner, etc.
Fixes#30863
In an interleaved view when composing a message we fade messages
which the user is not replying to, to reduce the chance they send
a message to a recipient they didn't intend to.
Also, it reduces the visual/cognitive processing required
to figure out where their message is going to go.
But, it's not necessarily clear to users that what the
fading means, so this commit adds a one-time compose banner
to explain what's going on the first time this comes up.
Fixes part of #29076.
