This adds three bools to message_container object which calculate bools
where the "(EDITED)" label should appear:
* `edited_in_left_col` -- when label appears in left column.
* `edited_alongside_sender` -- when label appears alongside sender info.
* `edited_status_msg` -- when label appears for a "/me" message.
We use the new bools and remove the complicated if else statements
from the templates for the "(EDITED)" label.
This also allows us to add a unit test to verify the logic.
Previously, if you were in the process of editing the last message in
a narrow and a new message came in, we'd rerender that second-to-last
message, causing your editing widget to lose focus (and thus the next
few keys you typed to be interpreted as keyboard shortcuts, which
had a good chance of resulting in your navigating somewhere random).
This rerendering was essentially unnecessary; the only change to state
going into the rendering process was the next_is_same_sender CSS class
being toggled on the messagebox in the message. So, at most, we
should have been just toggling that CSS class (and this commit makes
us do precisely that).
It seems like we could further improve this code by just removing the
next_is_same_sender CSS class entirely and removing this block, but
I'm leaving that for follow-up work.
Fixes#11656.
The bug here was that when we rerendered messages following local echo
through the echo.process_from_server code path, the eventual call to
_rerender_header() made the implicit assumption that all messages in a
message group had the same date. As a result, it created a totally
new/fake message group and called the rendering logic on that group
without calling the functions for setting up recipient row dates,
which would always result in no recipient bar date being added. This
bug was latent/invisible before, because when introduced, the locally
echoed messages were always being added to a recipient group from
today, where the recipient bar's date area was by default empty anyway.
This latent bug was revealed when we modified the structure of the app
to do date dividers between individual messages within a message
group, rather than strictly between message groups.
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.
This seems like a small change (apart from all the
test changes), but it fundamentally changes how
the app finds "topic" on message objects. Now
all code that used to set "subject" now sets "topic"
on message-like objects. We convert incoming messages
to have topic, and we write to "topic" all the way up
to hitting the server (which now accepts "topic" on
incoming endpoints).
We fall back to subject as needed, but the code will
emit a warning that should be heeded--the "subject"
field is prone to becoming stale for things like
topic changes.
The `assert_message_groups_list_equal` and
`assert_message_list_equal` helpers were
always returning `true`, as they were doing
a bogus traversal of the data structures and
always comparing empty arrays, even when there
was real data.
To prevent this pitfall in the future, we assert
that the extracted data is truth-y, and for the
empty cases we just directly assert deep equality
to `[]`.
Apparently, we didn't have one of these, and thus had a moderate
number of generally very old violations in the codebase. Fix this and
clear the ones that exist..
We used to have positional parameters for table_name
and filter, but we don't use them for message_list.all
and we're about to replace filter in some cases.
Passing everything in on opts is more consistent and
self-documenting in the calling code, plus lots of
unit tests can get away with passing in `{}` now
for situations where table_name does not matter.
All of our callers pass in muting_enabled, so we
remove the default value for it. And then the
collapse_messages variable doesn't have to live on
`this` as it's only being passed through down to the
view.
This run_test helper sets up a convention that allows
us to give really short tracebacks for errors, and
eventually we can have more control over running
individual tests. (The latter goal has some
complications, since we often intentionally leak
setup in tests.)
Most of this was straightforward.
Most functions that were grabbed verbatim and whole from
the original class still have one-line wrappers.
Many functions are just-the-data versions of functions that
remain in MessageList: see add, append, prepend, remove as
examples. In a typical pattern the MessageList code becomes
super simple:
prepend: function MessageList_prepend(messages) {
var viewable_messages = this.data.prepend(messages);
this.view.prepend(viewable_messages);
},
Two large functions had some minor surgery:
triage_messages =
top half of add_messages +
API to pass three lists back
change_message_id =
original version +
two simple callbacks to list
For the function update_muting_and_rerender(), we continue
to early-exit if this.muting_enabled is false, and we copied
that same defensive check to the new function
named update_items_for_muting(), even though it's technically
hidden from that codepath by the caller.
Previously, if we had both a date and a subscribe bookend, they would
appear in one order after new messages were sent (bookend_bottom of
the top group), and another after a reload (bookend_top of the bottom
group). This makes the experience consistently a bookend_top.

- Upgrade `underscore.js` to 1.8.3.
- Bump up the `PROVISION_VERSION` to 4.2.
Part of #1709
* In most cases, eslint --fix with the right comma-dangle settings was
able to update the code correctly.
* The exceptions were cases where the parser incorrectly treated the
arguments to functions like `assert_equal` as arguments; we fixed
these manually. Since this is test code, we can be reasonably
confident that just fixing the failures suffices to correct any bugs
introduced by making changes automatically.
This reverts commit be93b6ea28.
Unfortunately, the newer jquery comes with a huge performance
regression affecting the hotkeys code, which has the effect of making
typing super slow.
Fixes: #1449.
The node packages 'jQuery' and 'jquery' are different--'jQuery' is the
legacy support package that is needed for Zulip so the require statements
in the tests were updated.
Travis uses node 4.0 by default and we are using 0.10, so the command to
install the correct version had to be added to the .travis.yml file.
