This is mostly adding markup, calling some convenient
functions in buddy_data.js, and adjusting CSS.
To make the circles update dynamically, I mostly
orchestrate this though activity.js for now. It's
possible we'll want to adjust that eventually to
happen through something like a `presence_events`
dispatcher, but that's essentially what
a good part of `activity.js` does now.
We now have a function get_user_circle_class
that returns one of these values:
"user_circle_green"
"user_circle_orange"
"user_circle_empty"
And we put that in the templates.
And then CSS renders the circle of the appropriate
color.
The unit tests now explicitly capture whether
we are rendering the correct kind of circle.
This is a pure code move.
We want to use user circles in the left sidebar,
so this code will no longer belong in
right-sidebar.scss.
This code is just related to drawing the circles.
We can still position in size in other CSS files
(with more context-specific selectors).
This fixes a longstanding UI issue when you have way too many recent
private message conversations, as you can now scroll down the list to
find what you're looking for.
Fixes#5384.
The function that was called here has no side
effects. If you don't use its value, it's just
wasted computation. The real action happens
in the subsequent calls to `rebuild_recent`.
Having it say "Clear" when you delete an existing status was a nice touch,
but it's confusing when you first open the modal and the text of the button
says "Clear".
I think the right medium-term solution here is for this modal to have "Save"
and "Cancel" buttons, and for there to be a small UI element in the user
popover itself that allows you to clear your current status.
We now use `fix_positions` to avoid cropping the emoji
picker. You can see cropping pretty easily on a short
screen if you click the smiley icon for reactions on a
message. It's a bit tricky to repro, since some
of the current top/bottom placements are correct, but
it's definitely reproducible.
I think there are opportunities to both simplify
and optimize `popovers.compute_placement`, so that it
plays nicer with `fix_positions`. For example, I would
bias it even more strongly toward favoring right/left
placement. But there are complicating factors--it is
also used by the hotspot code.
And I wanted to especially preserve the current
behavior when you launch the picker from the compose
box. That's one place where it looks pretty bad if
you select "right" instead of "bottom".
The fix_positions argument here fixes the horizontal
position of the stream popover.
It also fixes the vertical position, both in the default case, and
also doing an appropriate adjustment for the case that the color
picker is open.
This contains a few changes by tabbott to, rather than hiding the
arrow unconditionally, only do so when it would no longer point at the
right part of the screen.
Fixes#2374.
Fixes#6059.
Fixes#7290.
We use the `fix_positions` options every time
we launch a user popover, whether it is from
the message pane avatar or the buddy list
chevron.
For the message pane case, we can eliminate
some complexity related to trying to put
the menu above or below the avatar. We now
always suggest "right", and if there are
constraints due to being close to the edge
of the screen, the fix_positions code
will take care of it.
The patch to bootstrap will make the position smarter, but we still
want to preserve the 100px default vertical offset we chose for visual
reasons.
Tweaked by tabbott to preserve the visual design.
Changed <h5> to <p>, and removed the special formatting of
.empty_search_text to make this more in line with the formatting we
generally use with empty narrows.
Since the bootstrap popovers are destroyed asynchronously so opening a
emoji popover in quick succession like by clicking the reaction button
on another message was causing a race condition which was causing some
operations to be applied on a destroyed emoji popover. This commit
fixes it by making sure to apply any operations only to the currently
active popover.
Fixes: #9851.
Adds three helper functions - `row_with_focus`, `row_before_focus` and
`row_after_focus` to get the focused, previous and next to focused
draft rows respectively.
`delete_id` in `drafts.js` referred to the next draft row which was
to be focused when deleting using hot keys. The var name was absurd
and is hence renamed.
Adds a `remove_draft` function which deletes the draft and updates the ui
by removing it from the list of drafts.
Also adds comments to increase readability.
Show "sent to different narrow" notification and other such notification by
notifications.notify_local_mixes for non locally echoed message sent by
current client.
With significant new comments added by tabbott.
Fixes: #11488.
We swallow the error if our python_to_js_filter code is
unable to parse some python regex properly. This ensures
that the web app stays responsive.
We would fail to show an accurate local echo for these
regexes, however, the backend would act as the final
authority for handling the realm pattern conversion.
Since on replacing the first 'P<>' group, we remove this text from
the string, we have to make the RegExp start looking from index 0
again to properly convert later 'P<>' groups to JS regex syntax.
We want the search widget, when visible, to be
outside the scroll container for the stream list.
One obvious use case is if you start scrolling, and
then realize it might be less effort to search.
Also, for user search, it already worked this way.
We have to add a couple resizing hooks here, but
it's not necessary to change the actual resize
calculation, since we move the section inside
of #streams_header, which is already accounted
for.
The only markup change here is to add
a `stream_search_section` class. I don't
know why we use `notdisplayed` here instead of
jQuery, or what `input-append` is for, but I
considered them outside the scope of this change.
We can also remove some crufty CSS that was
compensating for it being inside the container.
First, we are not removing Group PMs from the
right sidebar, where most people see it.
There is a setting called:
[ ] User list in left sidebar in narrow windows
There are probably very few people that turn that on,
and even when they do, the setting only takes effect
when your window is less than a certain width.
This feature bitrots very quickly, because very few
core maintainers use it.
It's already kind of broken. It gets very crowded,
and we get CSS bugs when we move the right sidebar
into the left sidebar. (We can fix those bugs, but
they crop up unexpectedly due to the nature of CSS.)
We historically tried to maintain a ratio between
stream list, single-user buddy list, and group-user
buddy list, but the group-user buddy list gets
particularly crowded out, and it's basically useless
now.
We want to revisit the entire feature eventually, but
this commit at least gives the normal buddy list some
breathing room.
Also, if you need to see the info in the group PM
list, you can basically expand "Private Messages" to
see your recent group PM conversations. And if you
want to see who's actually online, that info is
already implicit from the normal buddy list.
If users have the option to put user lists in
the left sidebar for narrow windows, they will
now get 15px more of real estate in the left
sidebar.
I just removed the `-15` fudge factor.
We were double-counting the keyboard icon's
margin (8px) when figuring out how much room
we had for the two users lists.
Now we just use the safe outer height of
the anchor tag.
This change only impacts users who have the setting
to put the user lists in the left sidebar when they
have a narrow window.
First, we move ".right-sidebar-items" as an entire
group.
Second, we append the items to "#left-sidebar"
instead of ".narrows_panel".
The name `bottom_sidebar` was misleading, because it
includes the entire "normal" left sidebar.
It includes the 4 narrow links at the top plus the
stream/topic list.
We now call is narrows_panel.
Note that the left sidebar sometimes also includes
the user list (with a display setting turned on).
And it will eventually include other views.
We also remove an intermediate value in the resize
calculations.
This adds date dividers within a single message group when the only
reason we had previously been splitting apart two message groups is a
change of date. The overall effect is a cleaner message list user
experience.
The downside of this change would be that the recipient bars no longer
will always show a new date for date changes; to fix that, we rewrite
how the floating recipient bars both set the date field on the
floating recipient bar itself, as well as ensure that non-floating
recipient bars don't show duplicate dates.
In a future design update where we modify how message recipient bars
look, we may very well be able to simplify this logic by removing some
of the dynamic nature of the recipient bar calculations. But this is
a good implementation of what remains.
Tweaked significantly by tabbott from Steve Howell's original, both to
extract these changes from a larger PR as well as to modify the
first_visible_message logic to handle some tricky corner cases.
Fixes#10171.
On clicking the edit button for a stream description, the stream's
unrendered description should be made editable as text instead of
the stream's rendered description (which would be displayed as HTML
instead of text).
This completes the effort to use backend-rendered stream descriptions
here. Fixes#11272.
Use the results of commit #73d26c8 to remove the method
`render_stream_description` in static/js/stream_data.js and instead
use the rendered_description attribute now being sent by the backend.
This will be a valuable optimization and a step towards removing the
need for the marked.js markdown parser and speeding up the client end.
This extract functions `get_mention_candidates_data` &
`filter_mention_name` to make code reusable and cleaner and further use
the logic in silent mention syntax.
Having a tiny bit of margin below the stream list
makes it possible to see the bottom of the scrollbar.
It also makes it so that the scrollbar activates
for a tiny range of list sizes where before the
last element would have been right up against the
bottom of the page, but we wouldn't scroll.
