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
Fixes this problem that happens sometimes in specs:
> Mocha::StubbingError:
> #<Mock:0x135150> was instantiated in one test but it is receiving
invocations within another test. This can lead to unintended
interactions between tests and hence unexpected test failures. Ensure
that every test correctly cleans up any state that it introduces.
The most common thing that we do with fab! is:
fab!(:thing) { Fabricate(:thing) }
This commit adds a shorthand for this which is just simply:
fab!(:thing)
i.e. If you omit the block, then, by default, you'll get a `Fabricate`d object using the fabricator of the same name.
This adds the ability to collect stats without exposing them
among other stats via API.
The most important thing I wanted to achieve is to provide
an API where stats are not exposed by default, and a developer
has to explicitly specify that they should be
exposed (`expose_via_api: true`). Implementing an opposite
solution would be simpler, but that's less safe in terms of
potential security issues.
When working on this, I had to refactor the current solution.
I would go even further with the refactoring, but the next steps
seem to be going too far in changing the solution we have,
and that would also take more time. Two things that can be
improved in the future:
1. Data structures for holding stats can be further improved
2. Core stats are hard-coded in the About template (it's hard
to fix it without correcting data structures first, see point 1):
63a0700d45/app/views/about/index.html.erb (L61-L101)
The most significant refactorings are:
1. Introducing the `Stat` model
2. Aligning the way the core and the plugin stats' are registered
There is an edge case where the following occurs:
1. The user sets a bookmark reminder on a post/topic
2. The post/topic is changed to a PM before or after the reminder
fires, and the notification remains unread by the user
3. The user opens their bookmark reminder notification list
and they can still see the notification even though they cannot
access the topic anymore
There is a very low chance for information leaking here, since
the only thing that could be exposed is the topic title if it
changes to something sensitive.
This commit filters the bookmark unread notifications by using
the bookmarkable can_see? methods and also prevents sending
reminder notifications for bookmarks the user can no longer see.
When quoting a chat message in a post, if that message contains a mention,
that mention should be ignored. But we've been detecting them and sending
notifications to users. This PR fixes the problem. Since this fix is for
the chat plugin, I had to introduce a new API for plugins:
# We strip posts before detecting mentions, oneboxes, attachments etc.
# We strip those elements that shouldn't be detected. For example,
# a mention inside a quote should be ignored, so we strip it off.
# Using this API plugins can register their own post strippers.
def register_post_stripper(&block)

Subscriptions manager have been a pain since the beginning, one of the problem is that thread and channels behave mostly the same but with various small difference which I expect to increase over time.
Trying to use subclasses for this case has proven to be a mistake, this commit now uses a class for each case (channel, thread) which for now contains a lot of duplication, which might be reduced in the future but has the merit to make reasoning about each case very simple.
This refactor is fixing a bug introduced in 90efdd7f9d which was causing the wrong channel to be unsubscribed, this shouldn't be possible anymore. We had tests for this which were disabled due to flakeyness, I will consider re-enabling them in the future.
Other notes:
- notices had been added to the subscriptions manager service, they have been moved into their own dedicated service: `ChatChannelNoticesManager`
- the `(each model)` trick used in `<ChatChannel />` since 90efdd7f9d to ensure atomicity has been applied to `<ChatThread />` too
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.
With Embroider, we can rely on async `import()` to do the splitting
for us.
This commit extracts from `pretty-text` all the parts that are
meant to be loaded async into a new `discourse-markdown-it` package
that is also a V2 addon (meaning that all files are presumed unused
until they are imported, aka "static").
Mostly I tried to keep the very discourse specific stuff (accessing
site settings and loading plugin features) inside discourse proper,
while the new package aims to have some resembalance of a general
purpose library, a MarkdownIt++ if you will. It is far from perfect
because of how all the "options" stuff work but I think it's a good
start for more refactorings (clearing up the interfaces) to happen
later.
With this, pretty-text and app/lib/text are mostly a kitchen sink
of loosely related text processing utilities.
After the refactor, a lot more code related to setting up the
engine are now loaded lazily, which should be a pretty nice win. I
also noticed that we are currently pulling in the `xss` library at
initial load to power the "sanitize" stuff, but I suspect with a
similar refactoring effort those usages can be removed too. (See
also #23790).
This PR does not attempt to fix the sanitize issue, but I think it
sets things up on the right trajectory for that to happen later.

This commit starts from a simple observation: cooking messages on the hot path can be slow. Especially with a lot of mentions.
To move cooking from the hot path, this commit has made the following changes:
- updating cooked, inserting mentions and notifying user of new mentions has been moved inside the `process_message` job. It happens right after the `Chat::MessageProcessor` run, which is where the cooking happens.
- the similar existing code in `rebake!` has also been moved to rely on the `process_message`job only
- refactored `create_mentions` and `update_mentions` into one single `upsert_mentions` which can be called invariably
- allows services to decide if their job is ran inline or later. It avoids to need to know you have to use `Jobs.run_immediately!` in this case, in tests it will be inline per default
- made various frontend changes to make the chat-channel component lifecycle clearer. we had to handle `did-update @channel` which was super awkward and creating bugs with listeners which the changes of the PR made clear in failing specs
- adds a new `-processed` (and `-not-processed`) class on the chat message, this is made to have a good lifecyle hook in system specs
When uploading images, they are assigned a dominant color which gets used in various places, such as Discourse Hub and the new lightbox. Previously in chat we didn't assign this attribute, so it was defaulting to a null value. We did however use it as an inline CSS style for the image background (which is visible while the image is downloaded).
This change adds data-dominant-color to the uploaded image in chat and uses it correctly within lightbox.
This is a follow-up to e6299a3. I additionally fixed these three things:
1. Since e6299a3 there's no need anymore to join the group_users table
when looking for users who were reached by a group mention, so
I removed that join in that commit. But turned out we were joining
the group_users table twice, so I removed the second join in this PR.
That drastically speeded up my test query, from 6 sec to 0.26 sec.
2. We also were joining twice the user_chat_channel_memebership table,
so I removed the second unnecessary join too.
3. We actually need to join the user_chat_channel_memebership table
only in certain cases, and we don't need to do that for group mentions,
so I fixed that too.
As a result of these changes, time of my test query fall down from
6 sec to 0.001 sec. And the resulting SQL query now contains only
one JOIN statement.
A follow-up to faac6773. This PR eliminates one more heavy join by forcing
Active Record to do two queries instead.
Also, along the way, I made this change:
```
# this generates two quries to the groups table
def groups_to_mention
@groups_to_mention = mentionable_groups - groups_with_too_many_members
end
# so I changed it to (this makes only one query to the groups table):
def groups_to_mention
@groups_to_mention ||= mentionable_groups.where("user_count <= ?", SiteSetting.max_users_notified_per_group_mention)
end
```
This one is kind of a premature optimization, because we don't have evidence that
this extra query is a problem, but it seems cleaner this way.
Commits history on this PR may help better understand the change.
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.
Using SiteSetting.queue_jobs= to configure job asynchronicity was deprecated here four years ago and marked for removal in version 2.9.0. This PR removes the fallback method we kept since then. The method was there because it was still being used in a bunch of plugin tests (now fixed.)
- correctly respects min-width/height defined in css
- removes fixed width/height when resizing window
- reduces the min width of the side panel from 250px to 150px
No plugins or themes rely on anonymous_posting_min_trust_level so we
can just switch straight over to anonymous_posting_allowed_groups
This also adds an AUTO_GROUPS const which can be imported in JS
tests which is analogous to the one defined in group.rb. This can be used
to set the current user's groups where JS tests call for checking these groups
against site settings.
Finally a AtLeastOneGroupValidator validator is added for group_list site
settings which ensures that at least one group is always selected, since if
you want to allow all users to use a feature in this way you can just use
the everyone group.
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`
* FEATURE: Bundle discourse-spoiler-alert plugin into core
Formerly https://github.com/discourse/discourse-spoiler-alert

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)
This PR addresses the push to unify the icon representing AI throughout Discourse, by using the discourse-sparkles icon.
The icon is being moved to core to make changes with dependencies included in core that were using the "magic" icon instead.
In 2 places "magic" -> "discourse-sparkles,
1. topic summaries
2. (unreleased) chat summaries example
These helpers are never used in raw-hbs. Exporting default functions is enough for them to be picked up by the ember resolver, and also makes it possible to use them in gjs files.
This commit adds a new admin UI under the route `/admin-revamp`, which is
only accessible if the user is in a group defined by the new `enable_experimental_admin_ui_groups` site setting. It
also adds a special `admin` sidebar panel that is shown instead of the `main`
forum one when the admin is in this area.
We also add an "Admin Revamp" sidebar link to the community section, which
will only appear if the user is in the setting group:
Within this there are subroutes defined like `/admin-revamp/config/:area`,
these areas could contain any UI imaginable, this is just laying down an
initial idea of the structure and how the sidebar will work. Sidebar links are
currently hardcoded.
Some other changes:
* Changed the `main` and `chat` panels sidebar panel keys to use exported const values for reuse
* Allowed custom sidebar sections to hide their headers with the `hideSectionHeader` option
* Add a `groupSettingArray` setting on `this.siteSettings` in JS, which accepts a group site setting name
and splits it by `|` then converts the items in the array to integers, similar to the `_map` magic for ruby
group site settings
* Adds a `hidden` option for sidebar panels which prevents them from showing in separated mode and prevents
the switch button from being shown

As of #23867 this is now a real package, so updating the imports to
use the real package name, rather than relying on the alias. The
name change in the package name is because `I18n` is not a valid
name as NPM packages must be all lowercase.
This commit also introduces an eslint rule to prevent importing from
the old I18n path.
For themes/plugins, the old 'i18n' name remains functional.
Users can decide to hide their profile and presence. It seems more correct to also not return the status in this case.

This adds access controls for the `/polls/grouped_poll_results`
endpoint, such that only users with appropriate permissions can read
the grouped results of a given poll.
