A comment like this was removed in
fa44d2ea6 "settings: Remove autoscroll_forever setting."
The comment went on to say something about autoscroll, but this
part still seems relevant. While here, adjust grammar and caps.
We do not want the code to lead to a path where it will attempt to
display native notifications if the “Notification” object doesn’t
exist, as this likely means that the device does not support OS
notifications.
This removes a test for "webkit" in the userAgent string in order
to see whether notifications should be displayed. This is so that
the notifications process will work correctly in Firefox and not
keep registering as "false" which makes the notifications prompt
continue to re-show itself.
This checks whether the user is already in the state of having
blocked notifications, so that we can *not* show them the banner
to enable notifications, since browsers won't allow the request
to go through again.
Perhaps in a follow up we should create a different banner for
this case that shows how to enable notifications at the browser
level for this site.
This is a two-step notifications process that will ask a user
to enable notifications and if they click exit give them three
options:
1. Enable notifications.
2. Ask later.
3. Never ask on this computer again.
The first two are self-explanatory (ask later = next session it
asks again). The third is captured and stored in localStorage and
a check is done on page load to see whether or not notifications
should be displayed.
Commit modified heavily by Brock Whittaker <brock@zulipchat.com>.
Fixes#1189.
This commit renames possibly_notify_new_messages_outside_viewport()
to the more concise name notify_local_mixes().
We really only need to call this function in one place, so we
have the caller check the `local_id` condition. We can eventually
upstream this code even further so that it's completely
obvious that it's only ever called from the local-echo codepath.
This commit early-exits before our loop when local_id is none,
and it tries to more clearly indicate that the callers will
generally be just calling this with messages sent on the
local-echo path.
On clicking a notification, the web app was not being narrowed to the
message topic on firefox. We now narrow to the message topic if a user
clicks on a notification. It was working correctly on Google Chrome.
Fixes: #5220.
This commit changes stream_data.in_home_view() to
take a stream_id parameter, which will make it more
robust to stream name changes.
This fixes a bug. Now when an admin renames a stream
you are looking at, it will correctly show itself to
be un-muted. (Even with this fix, though, the stream
appears to be inactive.)
Some callers still do lookups by name, and they will
call name_in_home_view() for now, which we can
hopefully deprecate over time.
Pass down 'local_id' through functions that handle notifications for messages
that are sent locally. If 'local_id' is undefined, the message was not sent in
the respective tab, so no "outside_viewport" notification should be displayed.
This fixes#1783.
We attempted a number of different approaches to solving this problem:
First, we tried using HTML5 local storage to keep track of which
browser should have created the desktop notification. This failed
because one needs locking, and it doesn't appear there is an working
locking implementation for HTML5 local storage that could allow us to
do this across tabs. See #2936 for details.
Ultimately we went with setting the message ID as a tag. Tags are
intended to be used for updating existing desktop notifications, which
means this implementation causes new notifications to flicker in and
out sometimes when multiple tabs are open, but that certainly beats
having duplicates.
Fixes#99.
This moves these functions from subs.js to stream_data.js:
receives_desktop_notifications
receives_audible_notifications
This makes notifications.js no longer dependent on the
bloated subs.js.
$.browser is not supported in higher versions of jQuery. The solution
is to instead use vanilla JavaScript to test the navigator.userAgent
property for the browser.
Fixes: #1033.
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.
