Adds a check for newline that was present on backend, but missing in the
frontend markdown implementation. Updating messages uses is_me_message flag
received from server instead of its own partial test. Similarly, rendering
previews uses markdown code.
Fixes#6493.
We no longer set message.flags in the local echo path.
In the markdown parsing step, we just set message.mentioned
directly.
And then we change `insert_new_messages` to no longer
convert flags to booleans, and move that code to only
happen for incoming server message events.
Using user_group_name_dict.get() will return `undefined`.
`blueslip.error` statement caused an exception notification to the
admins.
Tweaked by tabbott to add a test for a nonexistent group.
This commit switches to use sprite sheets for rendering emojis
in all the remaining places, i.e., message bodies and composebox
typeahead. This commit also includes some changes to notifications.py
file so that the spans used for rendering emojis can be converted
to corresponding image tags so that we don't break the emoji rendering
in missed message emails since we can't use sprite sheets there.
As part of switching the bugdown system to use sprite sheets, we need
to switch the name_to_codepoint mappings to match the new sprite
sheets. This has the side effect of fixing a bunch of emoji like
numbers and flag emoji in the emoji pickers.
Fixes: #3895.
Fixes: #3972.
This never made sense to be a flag on the UserMessage table, since
it's not per-user state. And in fact it doesn't need to be in a
database at all, since it's easily computed from content anyway.
Fixes#1099.
A realm filter should match only after the start of a line, whitespace
or opening delimiters. But markdown was not configured to respect those
rules which was causing some weird rendering behavior. This commit fixes
the regex used for matching realm filters. On the backend we are using
regex with negative lookbehind to perform matches but since javascript
regex don't support lookbehind we are using a workaround on the frontend
using `contains_backend_only_syntax()` function which detects if a realm
filter can be rendered correctly by backend only and if so it stops the
message from getting echoed locally.
Fixes: #5154.
While we do have some known cases where syntax diverges intentionally,
this change should make it a lot easier to maintain
markdown.contains_backend_only_syntax over time.
This commit removes all code related to headers because
(1) we don't need the code and (2) it splits #**stream**
as a paragraph, which we don't want. This commit also
fixes the inconsistency when #**stream** is on a new line.
Fixes#4678.
The user mention regex was checking for multiple lines,
so it broke when the user mention was on a new line.
This changes the regex AND adds a couple tests to
test inline markdown regexes.
Unicode emojis when rendered should display canonical short name.
Similarly, the alt text should be of the format `:<short_name>:`.
For both of these we currently display the actual unicode symbol.
As some systems don't have the fonts necessary for displaying them
properly, they are rendered as empty square blocks. This commit also
ensures that the markup generated for emoji generated by canonical
name and by an unicode emoji is same.
Fixes: #5555.
