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

**This PR creates a new core reusable component wraps a character counter around any input.**
The component accepts the arguments: `max` (the maximum character limit), `value` (the value of text to be monitored).
It can be used for example, like so:
```hbs
<CharCounter @max="50" @value={{this.charCounterContent}}>
<textarea
placeholder={{i18n "styleguide.sections.char_counter.placeholder"}}
{{on "input" (action (mut this.charCounterContent) value="target.value")}}
class="styleguide--char-counter"></textarea>
</CharCounter>
```
**This PR also:**
1. Applies this component to the chat plugins edit channel's *Edit Description** modal, thereby replacing the simple text area which provided no visual indication when text exceeded the max allowed characters.
2. Adds an example to the `/styleguide` route
* UX: handle long userstatus in menupanel
* UX: remove margin on userstatus emoji
* UX: change emoji sise of user status in DM creator
* FIX: user status overflow on chat index
Follow up to 82b4a53d29
On mobile, we just need to add `min-width: 0` to
`chat-live-pane` so it will not overflow the grid
defined in `main-chat-outlet.chat-view`.
The overflow could be triggered by:
1. Replying on mobile to a really long chat message
2. Uploading > 2 files
Both of these situations are fixed.
This css was causing the view on mobile to take more space than the available width. This was particularly visible with uploads due to a bug preventing the overflow, this is also fixed.
This commit introduces the skeleton of the chat thread UI. The
structure of the components looks like this. Its done this way
so the side panel can be used for other things as well if we wish,
not just for threads:
```
.main-chat-outlet
<ChatLivePane />
<ChatSidePanel>
<-- rendered with {{outlet}} -->
<ChatThread />
</ChatSidePanel>
```
Later on the `ChatThreadList` will be rendered here as well.
Now, when you go to a channel you can open a thread by clicking
on either the Open Thread message action button or by clicking on
the reply indicator. This will take you to a route like `chat/c/:slug/:channelId/t/:threadId`.
This works on mobile as well.
This commit includes basic serializers and routes for threads,
as well as a new `ChatThreadsManager` service in JS that caches
threads for a channel the same way the channel threads manager does.
The chat messages inside the thread are intentionally left out
until a later PR.
**NOTE: These changes are gated behind the site setting enable_experimental_chat_threaded_discussions
and the threading_enabled boolean on a ChatChannel**
UI is not modified much besides removing the border-bottom, and using only message body.
However instead of having a fix template, this is all automatically generated and random, resulting in a more natural experience.
Only the header's height and 15px spacing are removed from the height of the viewport.
Previously it was limited to 90vh and there was also a useless property on a child node limiting it to 85vh. We now use only one property.
This commit implements a requested feature: resizing the chat drawer.
The user can now adjust the drawer size to their liking, and the new size will be stored in localstorage so that it persists across refreshes. In addition to this feature, a bug was fixed where the --composer-right margin was not being correctly computed. This bug could have resulted in incorrectly positioned drawer when the composer was expanded.
Note that it includes support for RTL.
This commit introduces the ability to edit the channel
slug from the About tab for the chat channel when the user
is admin. Similar to the create channel modal functionality
introduced in 641e94f, if
the slug is left empty then we autogenerate a slug based
on the channel name, and if the user just changes the slug
manually we use that instead.
We do not do any link remapping or anything else of the
sort, when the category slug is changed that does not happen
either.
This commit allows us to set the channel slug when creating new chat
channels. As well as this, it introduces a new `SlugsController` which can
generate a slug using `Slug.for` and a name string for input. We call this
after the user finishes typing the channel name (debounced) and fill in
the autogenerated slug in the background, and update the slug input
placeholder.
This autogenerated slug is used by default, but if the user writes anything
else in the input it will be used instead.
We refer to the channel name rather than title elsewhere
(including the new channel modal), so we should be consistent.
Title is an internal abstraction, since DM channels cannot have
names (currently).
Also change the name field on channel edit to a input type="text"
rather than a textarea, since we don't want a huge input here.
- improves UI by displaying channel status on it's own line
- ensures channel status is correctly updated right after the request on frontend
- adds status on info page
Note this is a very large PR, and some of it could have been splited, but keeping it one chunk made it to merge conflicts and to revert if necessary. Actual new code logic is also not that much, as most of the changes are removing js tests, adding system specs or moving things around.
To make it possible this commit is doing the following changes:
- converting (and adding new) existing js acceptances tests into system tests. This change was necessary to ensure as little regressions as possible while changing paradigm
- moving away from store. Using glimmer and tracked properties requires to have class objects everywhere and as a result works well with models. However store/adapters are suffering from many bugs and limitations. As a workaround the `chat-api` and `chat-channels-manager` are an answer to this problem by encapsulating backend calls and frontend storage logic; while still using js models.
- dropping `appEvents` as much as possible. Using tracked properties and a better local storage of channel models, allows to be much more reactive and doesn’t require arbitrary manual updates everywhere in the app.
- while working on replacing store, the existing work of a chat api (backend) has been continued to support more cases.
- removing code from the `chat` service to separate concerns, `chat-subscriptions-manager` and `chat-channels-manager`, being the largest examples of where the code has been rewritten/moved.
Future wok:
- improve behavior when closing/deleting a channel, it's already slightly buggy on live, it's rare enough that it's not a big issue, but should be improved
- improve page objects used in chat
- move more endpoints to the API
- finish temporarily skipped tests
- extract more code from the `chat` service
- use glimmer for `chat-messages`
- separate concerns in `chat-live-pane`
- eventually add js tests for `chat-api`, `chat-channels-manager` and `chat-subscriptions-manager`, they are indirectly heavy tested through system tests but it would be nice to at least test the public API

* FEATURE: Enforce mention limits for chat messages
The first part of these changes adds a new setting called `max_mentions_per_chat_message`, which skips notifications when the message contains too many mentions. It also respects the `max_users_notified_per_group_mention` setting
and skips notifications if expanding a group mention would exceed it.
We also include a new component to display JIT warning for these limits to the user while composing a message.
* Simplify ignoring/muting filter in chat_notifier

The settings tab of each category channel should now present the option to allow or disallow channel wide mentions: @here and @all.
When disallowed, using these mentions in the channel should have no effect.
- Multiple style improvements
