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has been superseded by the view builder anyway.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.
Followup to d4a5b79592a79201076fb02845d2da7db1df1646,
this introduced an N1 because every message in the list
we had to query users for the mentions and then the user's
status too. Instead we can just include both in Chat::MessagesQuery.
This commit adds the thread index and individual thread
in the index list unread indicators, and wires up the message
bus events to mark the threads as read/unread when:
1. People send a new message in the thread
2. The user marks a thread as read
There are several hacky parts and TODOs to cover before
this is more functional:
1. We need to flesh out the thread scrolling and message
visibility behaviour. Currently if you scroll to the end
of the thread it will just mark the whole thread read
unconditionally.
2. We need to send down the thread current user membership
along with the last read message ID to the client and
update that with read state.
3. We need to handle the sidebar unread dot for when threads
are unread in the channel and clear it based on when the
channel was last viewed.
4. We need to show some indicator of thread unreads on the
thread indicators on original messages.
5. UI improvements to make the experience nicer and more
like the actual design rather than just placeholders.
But, the basic premise around incrementing/decrementing the
thread overview count and showing which thread is unread
in the list is working as intended.
This PR adds status to mentions in chat and makes those mentions receive live updates.
There are known unfinished part in this implementation: when posting a message, status on mentions on that message appears immediately, but only if a user used autocomplete when typing the message. If user copy and paste a message with mentions into chat composer, those mentions won't have user status on them.
PRs with fixes for both problems are following soon.
Preparations for this PR that were made previously include:

This commit moves message lookup and querying to the
/chat/api/channel/:id endpoint and adds the ability
to query the tracking state overview for threads as well
as the threads and thread tracking state for any thread
original messages found.
This will allow us to get an initial overview of thread
tracking for a user when they first enter a channel, rather
than pre-emptively loading N threads and tracking state
for those across all channels on the current user serializer,
which would be expensive.
This initial overview will be used in subsequent PRs to
flesh out the thread unread indicators in the UI.
This also moves many chunks of code that were in services
to reusable Query classes, since use of services inside
services is discouraged.
This moves chat tracking state calculation for channels
and threads into a central Chat::TrackingStateManager service, that
serves a similar purpose to the TopicTrackingState model
in core.
This service calls down to these query classes:
* ThreadUnreadsQuery
* ChannelUnreadsQuery
To get the unread_count and mention_count for the appropriate
channels and threads.
As well as this, this commit refactors the client-side chat
tracking state.
Now, there is a central ChatTrackingStateManager Ember Service
so all tracking is accessible and can be counted from one place,
which can also initialize tracking from an initial payload.
The actual tracking counts are now maintained in a ChatTrackingState
class that is initialized on the `.tracking` property of both channel and
thread objects.
This removes the attributes on UserChatChannelMembership and decoration
of said membership from ChannelFetcher, preferring instead to have an additional
object for tracking in the JSON.
We currently don't have a nice UI to show unread messages for the thread,
and it will take some time to create one. For now, this commit makes it so
new messages inside a thread do not count towards a chat channel's unread
counts, and new messages sent in a thread do not update a user's `last_read_message_id`
for a channel.
In addition, this PR refactors the `Chat::ChannelFetcher` to use the `Chat::ChannelUnreadsQuery`
query class for consistency, and made said class able to return zeroed-out records
for channels the user is not a member of.
Finally, a small bug is fixed here where if a user's `last_read_message_id` for
a channel was a thread's OM ID, then the thread OM would not show in the
main channel stream for them until another reply to the channel was posted.
This commit introduces a Chat::Publisher and MessageBus endpoint
that allows for updating a user's channel tracking state in bulk for
multiple channels, rather than having to do it for one channel
at a time.
This also required an improvement to ChannelUnreadsQuery -- now
multiple channel IDs can be passed to this to get the unread counts
and mention counts for those channels for a user, also increasing
efficiency rather than having to do a query for every individual
channel.
Followup to #20802
This commit main goal was to comply with Zeitwerk and properly rely on autoloading. To achieve this, most resources have been namespaced under the `Chat` module.
- Given all models are now namespaced with `Chat::` and would change the stored types in DB when using polymorphism or STI (single table inheritance), this commit uses various Rails methods to ensure proper class is loaded and the stored name in DB is unchanged, eg: `Chat::Message` model will be stored as `"ChatMessage"`, and `"ChatMessage"` will correctly load `Chat::Message` model.
- Jobs are now using constants only, eg: `Jobs::Chat::Foo` and should only be enqueued this way
Notes:
- This commit also used this opportunity to limit the number of registered css files in plugin.rb
- `discourse_dev` support has been removed within this commit and will be reintroduced later

This PR is introducing glimmer usage in the chat-live-pane, for components but also for models. RestModel usage has been dropped in favor of native classes.
Other changes/additions in this PR:
sticky dates, scrolling will now keep the date separator of the current section at the top of the screen
better unread management, marking a channel as unread will correctly mark the correct message and not mark the whole channel as read. Tracking state will also now correctly return unread count and unread mentions.
adds an animation on bottom arrow
better scrolling behavior, we should now always correctly keep the scroll position while loading more
reactions are now more reactive, and will update their tooltip without needed to close/reopen it
skeleton has been improved with placeholder images and reactions
when making a reaction on the desktop message actions, the menu won't move anymore
simplify logic and stop maintaining a list of unloaded messages
