We have been struggling a lot on this lately as it's almost impossible to write a decent test for this.
The important things which need to happen:
- fetch the unread/mention state and last message bus channel ids of each chat channels
- stop all subscriptions
- restart global chat subscriptions
- update channels with new state and ensure the message bus ids are updated
- restart subscriptions of each chat channel
As a followup we need to start implementing a standard way to query for a resource state. Something similar to: `/channels/tracking` and `/channels/:id/tracking`
Each of these endpoints would return a state similar to:
```json
{
tracking: { ... },
message_bus_ids: { ... }
}
Removing a reaction could start a long press at the same time and put the screen in a stuck state.
This commit ensures we give an opportunity to the reaction to capture the event first and not propagate further.
This commit attempts to have a bullet proof solution to the following case:
- long press on message (finger is still pressed)
- menu appears
- a button is now at finger location
- user releases finger
- a click is triggered on the button
Classic event canceling solution won't work here for performance reasons as we need the event to be passive in a scroll list.
In some cases, plugins may want to hide some of these actions
at all times, overriding the rules for canX with hiding these
buttons. To achieve this, a plugin can call the API
`removeChatComposerSecondaryButtons` and pass the list of button
IDs that should be removed as argument, like the example below:
```
withPluginApi("1.2.0", (api) => {
api.removeChatComposerSecondaryActions("copyLink", "select");
});
```

When editing a message, we call `message.cook()` in the beginning of
`#sendEditMessage` methods, but when sending a new message,
the call to `message.cook()` is hidden in the `stageMessage` method.
We can just call `message.cook()` before sending the message, no matter
whether this is a new message or an edited message.
No test as this is very much a hack while lightbox is being revamped. We currently have no good/easy way AFAIK to stop event propagation on escape in magnificpopup.
This behavior has been possible for a long time and has been made more in recent commits. On PWA iOS when release the touch after the mobile actions menu has been shown, if the finger was over one of the buttons of the menu, it would trigger a click.
This commit should now correctly trap and cancel events.
The following case would create the perception of a broken back button on desktop:
- open discourse on home page
- click chat button in header
- hit back button
- observes that we are still on the channel didn't navigate to homepage as we would have expected
The back button is actually working but it's in a loop. We were doing a `transitionTo` after finding the ideal channel to show, so the browser history would look something like this:
- home
- chat index
- channel page
When hitting back, we would go to chat index which would run the same logic and transition us to channel page.
This change will use `replaceWith` to replace the chat index step by the channel step, this way our history will now look like this:
- home
- channel page
Hitting back will now correctly bring us to home.
This commit attempts to refactor our long press logic to make it more resilient and precise.
With this improvement two very UX/UI changes have been made:
- scale animation on long press
- prevents click on reaction to propagate to the message which would cause the active state of the message to trigger
Followup to e6c6c342d9,
we missed one part of this refactor which was to give
the correct composer element reference to ChatComposerUploads.
Without this the pasteEventListener for uploads was not
bound so uploading via paste did not work.
I tried to test this, and though I can write binary/text to
the clipboard and paste it into the composer, it does not
seem to be possible to end up with a paste event that
has clipboardData.files filled in, which is what is used
for the uploads. I think this is a restriction of JS
generally, and there doesn't seem to be a way to work around
it, so unfortunately we have to have no test for this still.
This commit contains multiple changes to improve the composer behavior especially in the context of a thread:
- Generally rename anything of the form `chatChannelThread...` to `chatThread...``
- Moves the textarea interactor instance inside the composer server
- Improves the focus state and closing of panel related to the use of the Escape shortcut
- Creates `Chat::ThreadList` as a component instead of having `Chat::Thread::ListItem` and others which could imply they were children of a the `Chat::Thread` component
Previously, there was an issue where closing the message actions menu on mobile would unintentionally trigger a click event on an element below it, such as a thread indicator or a reaction. With the recent fix, this problem has been resolved. Now, when you close the menu, it will no longer interfere with or activate any elements positioned underneath it.
One user can create a post or chat message with a hashtag they
have permission to use, but then when other users look at that
post they will see an empty space next to the hashtag because they
do not have the permission to load the colors in CSS classes for
the related category.
This fixes the issue by adding a default color with a special
CSS class if the user doesn't have permission to see the linked
channel/category on the hashtag.
Few weeks ago we implemented `onPresenceChangeCallback` to re-sync chat channels state when going back to a long time inactive tab. This codepath however contained a bug as we were reseting all subscriptions but only restarting global subscriptions and not per channel subscriptions.
This commit should correctly ensure we correctly do so. It's sadly very hard to test time related changes in system specs.

When a user type a message with mentions, the autocomplete popup
may suggest users or groups. We were adding all these object to
the `currentMessage.mentionedUsers` collection, while we should
have been adding only users. A group added to that collection led to
the error later when trying to update user status on mentions.
This will make it simpler to work with this code. This also can make this code more stable and increase stability of our test suite.
Cooked message now will be available immediately after cooking, it wasn't the case before:
await message.cook();
const cooked = message.cooked;
This also removes a call to `message.cook()` from message fabricator. Alternatively we may leave the call there and make the fabricator function async, but I fill it's better this way. If someone needs to test something related to cooked message, they can either pass cooked text to fabricator:
message = fabricators.message({ cooked: "<p>cooked</p>" });
or call `message.cook()` after fabrication:
message = fabricators.message({ message: "raw message" });
await message.cook()
- ensures buttons are aligned to the bottom
- makes the emoji icon tertiary as initially intended
- correctly sets the icon scale of the sending button
- Made the emoji btn blue when composer is focused
- Moved everything chat-composer-button to its own file and BEM-ified it and making the choice to only work with our own is-disabled definition instead of with the attribute :disabled, for consistency
If the drawer receives an unexpected route, attempt to show the index. This is probably a more serious issue with subfolder but should limit the effects.
We were calling reset without the proper params which was causing errors in the console. This commit does the following changes:
- ensures `composer.cancel()` is the only way to cancel editing/reply
- adds a `draftSaved` property to chat message to allow for better tests
- writes a spec to ensure the flow is correct
- adds more page objects for better tests
- homogenize the default state of objects on chat message

Editing a message to an empty string and sending it, will delete it.
This commit also refactors a lot of channel/thread composer shortcuts specs.
---
This commit also includes various spec fixes which have been flakey while finishing this pull request.
This changes the thread header positioning of the
unread indicator to match the designs based on the route:
1. When the channel is open, show the indicator of # unread
threads with the icon
2. When the threads list is open, show no indicator since
you are on the list and can see which threads are unread
3. When a single thread is open, show the unread threads
indicator along with a left < back button, with a label
to show that this goes back to ongoing discussions
Drawer changes to come in another PR.
This commit introduces a couple of changes:
1. When editing a chat channel's slug, we were using `this.model.set("title", title)` when the `set`
function does not exist. This was actually throwing the error in the
"can edit slug" system test where the modal was not closed after
saving and was flashing an error.
2. Introduce `PageObjects::Pages::ChatChannelAbout` and
`PageObjects::Modals::ChatChannelEdit` page object to encapsulate
logic better.
When a thread is created / a new message is created in the
thread, we want to make sure that the original message user
has a membership for that thread, otherwise they will not
receive unread indicators for messages in the thread.
This commit attempts to fix the case where the messages loaded initially don't fill the screen. It would prevent user to scroll and as a result to load more.
There are multiple fixes in this commit:
- the main fix is removing this code which was preventing the actual fill:
```javascript
// prevents an edge case where user clicks bottom arrow
// just after scrolling to top
if (loadingPast && this.#isAtBottom()) {
return;
}
```
- ensures we always give a page site to the `chatApi.channel(...)` call if we have one, in the current state when `fetchFromLastRead` was `true` we would not set `args.page_size`
- ensures the `query_paginated_messages` is having a valid page size, which is not nil and not > `MAX_PAGE_SIZE`
- write a spec for the autofill, it was a challenging spec to write but it should give us the confidence we need here
Since 5cce829 and the new
channel view builder, we have no need of these obsolete
routes which have way too much logic in the controller, which
has been superseded by the view builder anyway.
Remove the routes and update the channel message loading to use it.
* Moved the settings cog from thread list to thread and
put it in a new header component
* Remove thread original message component, no longer needed
and the list item and thread indicator styles/content
will be quite different
* Start adding content (unread indicator etc.) to the thread
list item and changing structure to be more like designs
* Serialize the last thread reply when opening the thread index,
show in list and update with message bus
In some cases activeChannel can be null so this will error,
also it is limiting to have this code in chatApi. Instead
move to the threads manager, and also lean on channelsManager.find
to get the channel from the cache instead, which will not error.
The current behavior is to close drawer when pressing escape inside the input.
After this change, first escape will blur the input, and second escape will close the drawer.
This commit also refactors the whole shortcuts for drawer system spec.
#### FIX: Do not use client lastReadMessageId when fetching channel messages
We had an issue where the following happened:
1. User opened channel and saw the last message, and we set the
lastReadMessageId on the server and the client
2. User navigated to another channel
3. Another user deleted the message in the original channel
4. The first user navigated back to the original channel before
the MessageBus event for the deleted message arrived, and got
a 404 error because we were sending the deleted lastReadMessageId as
target_message_id to the channel controller.
Instead of this which is a bit flaky and is hard to cover all
the issues for, instead we can pass a fetch_from_last_read boolean
param to the channels controller, and just get the user's
last_read_message_id straight from the database to use for the
target_message_id. This gets rid of any sources of race conditions
or lack of updates from MessageBus.
#### FIX: Include missing memberships for thread tracking publish
When we publish the channel/message tracking state for a
user and that message was a thread reply the publisher
was erroring because we were not telling Chat::TrackingStateReportQuery
to return missing memberships (which have zeroed out unread counts)
as well, which is what we do for the channel tracking state here.
Also just make sure that the TrackingStateReport does not error
when passed an ID it doesn't have data for.
This commit follows up b6c5a2da08
by serializing the user's thread memberships in these cases:
1. When we do the initial channel fetch with messages, we get
all threads and all the user's thread memberships for those
messages.
2. When the thread list is fetched, we get all the user's memberships
in that list.
3. When the single thread is fetched, either from opening it from
the list, an OM indicator, or just from doing .find() on the
manager when a new MessageBus message comes in
This will let us track the lastReadMessageId on the client, and
will also let us fix an issue where the unread indicator in the
channel header was incrementing for every thread that got a
new message, regardless of whether the user was a member.
