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.
We now initialize most modules in ui_init.js, which
isn't the perfect place to do it, but at least now
we have a mostly consolidated entry point.
All the new foo.initialize() methods introduced in
this module run the same order relative to each
other as before this commit. (I did some console
logging with a hacked version of the program to
get the order right.) They happen a bit later than
before, though.
A couple modules still have the `$(function() {`
idiom for miscellaneous reasons:
archive - is a different bundle
common - used elsewhere
list_render - non-standard code style
scroll_bar - no exports
setup - probably special?
socket - $(function () is nested!
transmit - coupled to socket
translations - i18n is a bigger problem
ui_init - this bootstraps everything
This is preparation for enabling an eslint indentation configuration.
90% of these changes are just fixes for indentation errors that have
snuck into the codebase over the years; the others are more
significant reformatting to make eslint happy (that are not otherwise
actually improvements).
The one area that we do not attempt to work on here is the
"switch/case" indentation.
This is a slight change in the responsive design, moving the 975px
cutoff to 1025px; the main effect is that for windows that just barely
had a right sidebar, we now hide the ride sidebar. This is pretty
beneficial for the user experience specifically in the common size of
1024px, where that sidebar was making things feel a bit too
constrained.
The refactor in 12509515ae had a subtle
bug, which is that we switched from accessing the message list "this"
(aka the message list being rerendered) to current_msg_list. This
meant that when the narrowed_msg_list was in view and code needed to
modify home_msg_list, we accessed the wrong `selected_row` to preserve
the scroll position of (namely, the one in current_msg_list, not the
one in home_msg_list).
Fix this, by moving the function to be a property of the
message_list_view object, which makes more sense structurally, anyway.
We may, in the future, want to do a similar migration for more of
message_viewport.js.
Fixes#8854.
This is an issue where in jQuery v3 the result of outerHeight on a node
that doesn’t exist is now “undefined” rather than “null”, which means
it will no longer cast to a Number but rather NaN. For this, we create
the safeOuterHeight and safeOuterWidth functions to safely return a
result (or 0).
This is a better solution than manually going to each instance and
ORing it with 0 for type safety.

This fixes the mobile web experience for Chrome on iOS.
Apparently, Chrome-on-iOS silently has a `viewport` module that
overrides and user-defined module by that name, causing all of our
code that accesses the viewport module to not work on that platform.
We fix this by renaming it.
