I pushed a bunch of commits that attempted to introduce
the concept of `client_message_id` into our server, as
part of cleaning up our codepaths related to messages you
sent (both for the locally echoed case and for the host
case).
When we deployed this, we had some strange failures involving
double-echoed messages and issues advancing the pointer that appeared
related to #5779. We didn't get to the bottom of exactly why the PR
caused havoc, but I decided there was a cleaner approach, anyway.
This change has us tracking messages as soon as we start
sending the message to the server. The next step is to
reconfigure the timeouts a bit to deal with the server not
responding.
We now use a client-side message id to track the state of our
sent messages. This sets up future commits to start tracking
state earlier in the message's life cycle.
It also avoids ugly reify logic where we capture an event to
update our data structure to key on the server's message id
instead of the local id. That eliminates the node test as well.
Another node test gets deleted here, just because it's not
worth the trouble with upcoming refactorings.
This mostly sets the stage for a subsequent commit to start
using client_message_id as the key into sent_messages.
It has the nice side effect of making it more explicit that
certain things should always happen when transmit_message()
succeeds.
This commit does regress our node test coverage a bit.
This commit starts to decouple client_message_id from local_id.
We don't really take advantage of the decoupling in this
commit--in fact, it's a bit of a pain at first. But this should
be a fully working checkpoint commit.
This is mostly straightforward moving of code out of compose.js.
The code that was moved currently supports sending time
reports for sent messages, but we intend to grow out the new
module to track more state about sent messages.
The following function names in this commit are new, but their
code was basically pulled over verbatim:
process_success (was process_send_time)
set_timer_for_restarting_event_loop
clear
initialize
All the code in the new module is covered by previous tests that
had been written for compose.js. This commit only modifies
a few things to keep those tests.
The new module has 100% node coverage, so we updated `enforce_fully_covered`.
We are deprecating local_id/local_message_id on the Python server.
Instead of the server knowing about the client's implementation of
local id, with the message id = 9999.01 scheme, we just send the
server an opaque id to send back to us.
This commit changes the name from local_id -> client_message_id,
but it doesn't change the actual values passed yet.
The goal for client_key in future commits will be to:
* Have it for all messages, not just locally rendered messages
* Not have it overlap with server-side message ids.
The history behind local_id having numbers like 9999.01 is that
they are actually interim message ids and the numerical value is
used for rendering the message list when we do client-side rendering.
The piece of code is dead since there can be no instance where
email === ''. This is ensured by util.extract_pm_recipients
by filtering for empty strings in the pm_recipients list.
This piece was dead because exports.send_times_data[message_id]
cannot be undefined since the only place this function is called
from is exports.report_as_received() and that function has a call
to mark_end_to_end_receive_time() before a call is made to the
function in question for dead code. The function call to
mark_end_to_end_receive_time results in
exports.send_times_data[message_id] = {} if this was not defined
already. So there can be no instance where we end up the code
being removed.
There is no reason to render the template for compose mention
warnings if the user is already in the widget.
This commit also restructures the unit test significantly to more
carefully exercise each case, particularly in regard to when
templates get rendered.
In this commit we remove a small piece of dead code from
check_stream_for_send() function and also rename it to
check_unsubscribed_stream_for_send() which makes more sense.
The file input used for attaching files and images was not being reset
after each use. This resulted in irregular behaviour (sometimes failure)
in attaching the same file consecutively.
This fixes the bug in the reset method.
Fixes#5074.
This commit removes all references to feature_flags.local_echo.
It's been a core feature for about four years, so I think we
can safely say the experiment was successful.:)
This doesn't quite complete the goals of #4650, which has a plan for
how to remove this entirely, but it causes this problematic code to
now be contained to a very rare case.
Refactored significantly by tabbott just due to rebase age.
Fixes#3629.
The function check_stream_existence() temporarliy got moved
to stream_create.js, and our call from compose.js was still trying
to find it in subs.js. Now we move the function to compose.js,
since we no longer use it stream_create.js.
This function is pretty dubious, and we may want to only check
for duplicate stream names locally.
Reusing code from the main compose_message component so that resizing now
behaves correctly. This means that when the user tries to resize vertically,
the autoresize code is disabled, and the textbox reverts to manual resizing.
Fixes#4573
This code makes the right pane work in "Manage Streams" when
you are editing a stream subscription. It handles basic
functionality (submitting forms, etc.), live updates, and
showing the pane as needed.
Most of the code here was simply moved from subs.js, but some
functions were pulled out of larger functions:
live update:
add_me_to_member_list
update_stream_name
update_stream_description
collapse/show:
collapse
show_sub
We also now export subs.show_subs_pane.
We eventually want stream_edit not to call into subs.js, and
this should be fairly easy--we just need to move some shared
methods to a new module.
We now only call compose_state.composing() in a boolean context,
where we simply care whether or not the compose box is open. The
function now also returns true/false.
Callers who need to know the actual message type (e.g. "stream" or
"private") now call compose_state.get_message_type().
This is mostly just moving methods out of compose.js.
The variable `is_composing_message`, which isn't a boolean, has
been renamed to `message_type`, and there are new functions
set_message_type() and get_message_type() that wrap it.
This commit removes some shims related to the global variable
`compose_state`; now, `compose_state` is a typical global
variable with a 1:1 relationship with the module by the same
name.
The new module has 100% line coverage, most of it coming
via the tests on compose_actions.js. (The methods here are
super simple, so it's a good thing that the tests are somewhat
integrated with a higher layer.)
Some Handlebars strings contained whitespaces characters at their ends.
With this, such characters are removed, as well as multiple spaces
(like the ones produced by code indentation).
This also includes a couple of fixes that removes spaces that were
intentionally placed before/after the string to translate.
This moves respond_to_mention() and reply_with_mention() to
compose_actions.js. These methods are basically thin layers
on top of compose_actions.start().
This module extracts these two functions that get called by
several other modules:
start()
cancel()
It is a little bit arbitrary which functions got pulled over
with them, but it's generally functions that would have only
been called via start/cancel.
There are two goals for splitting out this code. The first
goal is simply to make `compose.js` have fewer responsibilities.
The second goal is to help break up circular dependencies.
The extraction of this module does more to clarify
dependencies than actually break them. The methods start()
and cancel() had actually been shimmed in an earlier commit,
and now they no longer have a shim.
Besides start/cancel, most of the functions here are only
exported to facilitate test stubbing. An exception is
decorate_stream_bar(), which is currently called from
ui_init.js. We probably should move the "blur" handler out
of there, but cleaning up ui_init.js is a project for another
day.
It may seem slightly odd that this commit doesn't pull over
finish() into this module, but finish() would bring in the
whole send-message codepath. You can think of it like this:
* compose_actions basically just populates the compose box
* compose.finish() makes the compose box do its real job,
which is to send a message
The extraction here is straightforward, but where we put the
caller is a slightly subtle change. Instead of continuing to
invoke this code at the end of show_box(), we instead call it
at the beginning of complete_starting_tasks(). This change is
valid, because show_box() and complete_starting_tasks() are only
ever called from compose.start().
