When adding the new "illegal" flag option, we missed adding the translation to the chat plugin, so when flagging a chat message (rather than a post) you'd see [en.chat.flags.illegal]. This PR fixes that.
`chat_preferred_mobile_index` allows to set the preferred default tab when loading chat on mobile.
Current choices are:
- channels
- direct_messages
- my_threads
This feature adds the functionality to start a new chat directly from the URL using query params.
The format is: /chat/new-message?recipients=buford,jona
The initial version of this feature allows for the following:
- Open an existing direct message channel with a single user
- Create a new direct message channel with a single user (and auto redirect)
- Create or open a channel with multiple users (and auto redirect)
- Redirects to chat home if the recipients param is missing
This commit introduces the possibility to stream messages. To allow plugins to use streaming this commit also ships a `ChatSDK` library to allow to interact with few parts of discourse chat.
```ruby
ChatSDK::Message.create_with_stream(raw: "test") do |helper|
5.times do |i|
is_streaming = helper.stream(raw: "more #{i}")
next if !is_streaming
sleep 2
end
end
```
This commit also introduces all the frontend parts:
- messages can now be marked as streaming
- when streaming their content will be updated when a new content is appended
- a special UI will be showing (a blinking indicator)
- a cancel button allows the user to stop the streaming, when cancelled `helper.stream(...)` will return `false`, and the plugin can decide exit early
Affects the following settings:
delete_all_posts_and_topics_allowed_groups
experimental_new_new_view_groups
enable_experimental_admin_ui_groups
custom_summarization_allowed_groups
pm_tags_allowed_for_groups
chat_allowed_groups
direct_message_enabled_groups
chat_message_flag_allowed_groups
This turns off client: true for these group-based settings,
because there is no guarantee that the current user gets all
their group memberships serialized to the client. Better to check
server-side first.
This commit adds a link to the original message of a thread, this link will:
- load the channel message and highlight it while keeping thread panel open on desktop
- open the channel and highlight the message in mobile (and close thread panel, as mobile never shows channel and thread in the same view)

The value [Yesterday] was a fixed string which couldn't be translated. Also removes nextWeek/nextDay which make no sense for dates which are always supposed to be in the past.
Fixes an issue with delayed rendering of the My Threads tab in chat mobile footer.
Previously we made an ajax request to determine the number of threads a user had before rendering the tab, however it is much faster (and better UX) if we can rely on a site setting for this.
The new chat_threads_enabled site setting is set to true when the site has chat channels with threading enabled.
Allows users to create DMs by selecting groups as a target. It also allows adding user groups to an existing chat
- When creating the channel, it expands the user group and adds all its members with chat enabled to the channel.
- After creation, there's no difference between adding a group or adding its members individually.
- Users can add multiple groups and users simultaneously.
- There are UI validations; the member count preview updates according to the member count of added groups, and it does not allow users to add more members than SiteSetting.chat_max_direct_message_users."
This update adds three tabs to the bottom of the chat overlay to make it easier for users to navigate chat on mobile.
As a result of this change:
- Direct Messages are now shown separately from public channels on mobile
- My Threads has now moved from the channel list to it's own tab on mobile
- My Threads can still be accessed on desktop via the sidebar and within the drawer channel list
- Chat back button has been updated to navigate to the correct tab (for both channels and threads)
Some special cases:
- If DMs are not used then the tab is not rendered
- If the user has no threads then the tab is not rendered
- If both the tabs for DMs and Threads aren't available then the whole footer will not be rendered
- Chat footer is only shown on the listing pages (DMs, Channels, My Threads)

Some plugins have names (e.g. discourse-x-yz) that
are totally different from what they are actually called,
and that causes issues when showing them in a sorted way
in the admin plugin list.
Now, we should use the setting category name from client.en.yml
if it exists, otherwise fall back to the name, for sorting.
This is what we do on the client to determine what text to
show for the plugin name as well.
This change simplifies the layout of our header when chat is open on mobile. The search icon and hamburger menu icons are also hidden and the Discourse logo is replaced by a ← Forum link to make it easier to continue where you left off within the forum (prior to this update the user could only go back to the forum index page).
## Back button to navigate out of add-member area
Currently on mobile, once you're in the member area, there is no easy to return to the general settings area, except exiting the settings altogether, which isn't very user friendly. A go-back link solves the problem.
## Styling tweaks
* Removed the background from the leave button
* Added more spacing between the sections on desktop and removed the fixed height for rows

This commit adds a new "My threads" link in sidebar and drawer. This link will open the "/chat/threads" page which contains all threads where the current user is a member. It's ordered by activity (unread and then last message created).
Moreover, the threads list of a channel page is now showing every threads of a channel, and not just the ones where you are a member.
In other kind of channels we will only unfollow but for group channels we don't want people to keep appearing in members list.
This commit also creates appropriate services:
- `Chat::LeaveChannel`
- `Chat::UnfollowChannel`
And dedicated endpoint for unfollow: `DELETE /chat/api/channels/:id/memberships/me/follows`
This PR introduces thread support for channel archives. Now, threaded messages are rendered inside a `details` HTML tag in posts.
The transcript markdown rules now support two new attributes: `threadId` and `threadTitle`.
- If `threadId` is present, all nested `chat` tags are rendered inside the first one.
- `threadTitle` (optional) defines the summary content.
```
[chat threadId=19 ... ]
thread OM
[chat ... ]
thread reply
[/chat]
[/chat]
```
If threads are split across multiple posts when archiving, the range of messages in each part will be displayed alongside the thread title. For example: `(message 1 to 16 of 20)` and `(message 17 to 20 of 20)`.
Chat will now check for the state of `SiteSetting.private_email` when sending the summary, when enabled, the mail will not display user information, channel information other than the ID and no message information, only the count of messages.
This commit implements drafts for threads by adding a new `thread_id` column to `chat_drafts` table. This column is used to create draft keys on the frontend which are a compound key of the channel and the thread. If the draft is only for the channel, the key will be `c-${channelId}`, if for a thread: `c-${channelId}:t-${threadId}`.
This commit also moves the draft holder from the service to the channel or thread model. The current draft can now always be accessed by doing: `channel.draft` or `thread.draft`.
Other notable changes of this commit:
- moves ChatChannel to gjs
- moves ChatThread to gjs
Group channels will allow users to create channels with a name and invite people. It's possible to add people even after creation of the channel. Removing users is not yet possible but will be added in the near future.
Technically a group channel is `direct_message_channel` with a group attribute set to true on its direct message (chatable). This model might evolve in the future but offers much flexibility for now without having to rely on a complex migration.
The commit essentially consists of:
- a migration to set existing direct message channels with more than 2 users to a group
- a new message creator which allows to search, add members, and create groups
- a new `AddUsersToChannel` service
- a modified `SearchChatable` service
Chat redesign work to improve chat navigation:
- New header title with channel name (thread list on mobile)
- New header title without channel name (thread list on full page chat)
- Removes the close button on threads (mobile only)
- Updates to back button route within thread (mobile), taking user to:
- The thread index, if they accessed the thread from the thread index.
- The channel itself, if they accessed the thread directly from the channel.
- The channel itself, if they accessed the thread from a notification.
- Show thread title in chat drawer header
- Properly convert emoji in thread titles in chat header (all devices)
- Upgrades various templates to use gjs format.
Add new chat indicator preference within chat user preferences.
Enabling this option will mean that green notifications will only appear for mentions (within channels and DMs.
This change also enables mentions within direct messages.
We were incorrectly generating URLs with message id even when it was not provided, resulting in a route ending with "undefined", which was causing an error.
This commit also uses this opportunity to:
- move `invite_users` into a proper controller inside the API namespace
- refactors the code into a service: `Chat::InviteUsersToChannel`
This change allows users to edit their chat messages based on the criteria added to Site Settings.
If the grace period conditions are met then there will be no (edited) text applied to the message.
The following site settings are added to chat:
chat editing grace period (seconds since message created)
chat editing grace period max diff for low trust levels (number of characters changed)
chat editing grace period max diff for high trust levels (number of characters changed)
The setting will change from "%{count} days" to "Chat settings have been set to retain channel messages for %{count} day."
This commit also:
- migrates `chat-retention-reminder` to gjs
- adds a "type" property to `chat-retention-reminder-text` to allow use a long or short text depending on where it's used.
This PR is a first step towards private groups. It redesigns settings/members area of a channel and also drops the "about" page which is now mixed into settings.
This commit is also:
- introducing chat-form, a small DSL to create forms, ideally I would want something in core for this
- introducing a DToggleSwitch page object component to simplify testing toggles
- migrating various components to gjs
- Allows to copy quotes from mobile
- Allows to copy text of a message from mobile
- Allows to select messages by clicking on it when selection has started
Note this commit is also now using toasts to show a confirmation of copy, and refactors system specs helpers concerning secondary actions.
<!-- NOTE: All pull requests should have tests (rspec in Ruby, qunit in JavaScript). If your code does not include test coverage, please include an explanation of why it was omitted. -->
While very fast and powerful staged threads forces a lot of gymnastic and edge cases. This patch adds a new service `Chat::CreateThread` and uses it to create a thread unconditionally when a user replies to a message in a threading enabled channel. If the user actually doesn’t send a message we will have a thread with no messages which has no important impact and could even be periodically cleaned if necessary.
Note that this commit also moves message actions to .gjs as it was the original goal of this PR to correctly check for staged thread to show the menu or not.
This feature adds notifications for chat messages that are sent within personal chats (1:1 and personal group chats).
To prevent notification spam we make use of consolidated notifications to combine updated message information in a meaningful way that allows the receiver to quickly jump into the chat to see what they missed.
This update respects muted channels, muted and blocked users. It will only create a new notification when the user has not muted the channel and the notified user is not muting or ignoring the message sender.
On mobile swiping a channel row will now show a "Remove" option. Holding this to the end will now remove this row from your list of followed direct message channels.

Currently, the logic for creating a new chat message is scattered
between a controller and an “old” service.
This patch address this issue by creating a new service (using the “new”
sevice object system) encapsulating all the necessary logic.
(authorization, publishing events, etc.)
Chat review queue flags were missing the context message above the actions.
This is probably because the (reasonably complex) logic was somewhat hard-coded to posts. After some investigation I concluded we can reuse this logic with some small amendments.
It is hard to catch and debug potential bugs related to live updates of user status
(though, we haven't seen many such bugs so far). We have a `console.warn`
statement that should help us to catch one class of such bugs.
Recently, we noticed that this warning gets printed when a user had a chat with
a user that was then deleted.
This is not a bug, since there is nothing to track for a deleted user, but we don't
want this noise on the console. This PR makes sure we don't print a warning in
such cases.
This PR swaps out the custom pathway to publishing and rendering mention warnings after a message is sent.
ChatPublisher#publish_notice is used, and expanded. Now, instead of only accepting text_content as an argument, component and component_args are accepted and there is a renderer for these components.
Translations moved to server, as notices expect text to be passed in unless a component is rendered
The warnings are rendered at the top now, outside of the scope of the single message that sent it.
I entirely removed the jit_messages_spec b/c it's duplicate testing of other parts of the app. IMO we don't need a backend test for a feature, a component test for the feature AND a system test (that is slow and potentially even flakey due to timing issues with wait) to test the same thing. So jit_messages_spec is gone.
This moves the "delete message" action (if it is available) of a flagged chat message under the "ignore" menu. This puts it on par with the menu for flagged posts.
It will now replies count and participants list. Also the title will be OM excerpt or user defined title, no more default "Thread" title. Lastly, the author of the last reply is also shown as prefix of it.
This is also fixes the issue of chat composer warnings persisting across channels. Currently if you try to mention more groups than is allowed for example, a mention warning pops up. When you change channels the mention warning will not disappear even if there is no text in the composer.
This adds a reset function to the chat-composer-warnings-tracker.js, which is called when the channel is changed and the message is empty. In the event that the message is not empty we call captureMentions to check the loaded drafts' mentions.
This PR would be nicer if the post-send notice used the new chat notices API to publish the mention warnings but we would have to change the existing ones and I thought that would be too much change for this PR. It'd be a good followup though.
Prior to this commit we were loading a large number of thread messages without any pagination. This commit attempts to fix this and also improves the following points:
- code sharing between channels and threads:
Attempts to reuse/share the code use in channels for threads. To make it possible part of this code has been extracted in dedicated helpers or has been improved to reduce the duplication needed.
Examples of extracted helpers:
- `stackingContextFix`: the ios hack for rendering bug when momentum scrolling is interrupted
- `scrollListToMessage`, `scrollListToTop`, `scrollListToBottom`: a series of helper to correctly scroll to a specific position in the list of messages
- better general performance of listing messages:
One of the main changes which has been made is to remove the computation of visible message during scroll, it will only happen when needed (update last read for example). This constant recomputation of `message.visible` on intersection observer event while scrolling was consuming a lot of CPU time.
`SiteSetting.enable_public_channels` allows site admin to decide if public channels are available at all. There's no distinction between admins or not as we expect admins to create private category channels if they want to limit usage.
* FEATURE: Inline topic summary. Cached version accessible to everyone.
Anons and non-members of the `custom_summarization_allowed_groups_map` groups can see cached summaries for any accessible topic. After the first 12 hours and if the posts to summarize have changed, allowed users clicking on the button will automatically re-generate it.
* Ensure chat summaries work and prevent model hallucinations when there are no messages.
This commit replaces two existing screens:
- draft
- channel selection modal
Main features compared to existing solutions
- features are now combined, meaning you can for example create multi users DM
- it will show users with chat disabled
- it shows unread state
- hopefully a better look/feel
- lots of small details and fixes...
Other noticeable fixes
- starting a DM with a user, even from the user card and clicking <kbd>Chat</kbd> will not show a green dot for the target user (or even the channel) until a message is actually sent
- it should almost never do a full page reload anymore
