Before this commit, we created a chat mention record only in case we wanted to send a notification about that mention to the user. Notifications were the only use case for the chat_mention db table. Now we want to use that table for other features, so we have to always create a chat_mention record.
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 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**
This change only makes the model reflect correctly what's
already happening in the database. Note that there are no calls
to chat_message.chat_mention in Core and plugins so this
change should be safe.
Also note, that at the moment we use the chat_mentions db
table only to support notifications about mentions, but
we're going to start using it for other cases. This commit is
the first step in that direction.
This new table will be used to automatically group replies
for messages into one place. In future additional functionality
will be built around the thread, like pinning messages, changing
the title, etc., the columns are just the main ones needed at first.
The columns are not prefixed with `chat_*` e.g. `chat_channel` since
this is redundant and just adds duplication everywhere, we want to
move away from this generally within chat.
We've had the UploadReference table for some time now in core,
but it was added after ChatUpload was and chat was just never
moved over to this new system.
This commit changes all chat code dealing with uploads to create/
update/delete/query UploadReference records instead of ChatUpload
records for consistency. At a later date we will drop the ChatUpload
table, but for now keeping it for data backup.
The migration + post migration are the same, we need both in case
any chat uploads are added/removed during deploy.
This commit adds an index for the query which the chat plugin executes
multiple times when preloading user data in `Chat::ChatChannelFetcher.unread_counts`.
Sample query plan from a query I grabbed from one of our production
instance.

In both ChatMessage#rebake! and in ChatMessageProcessor
when we were calling ChatMessage.cook we were missing the
user_id to cook with, which causes missed hashtag cooks
because of missing permissions.
There is no need to duplicate check chat messages when they are being
edited but not having their message text changed. This was leading to
a validation error when adding/removing an upload but not changing the
message text.
Only allow maximum of 6000 characters for chat messages when they
are created or edited. A hidden setting can control this limit,
6000 is the default.
There is also a migration here to truncate any existing messages to
6000 characters if the message is already over that and if the
chat_messages table exists. We also set cooked_version to NULL
for those messages so we can identify them for rebake.
This commit fleshes out and adds functionality for the new `#hashtag` search and
lookup system, still hidden behind the `enable_experimental_hashtag_autocomplete`
feature flag.
**Serverside**
We have two plugin API registration methods that are used to define data sources
(`register_hashtag_data_source`) and hashtag result type priorities depending on
the context (`register_hashtag_type_in_context`). Reading the comments in plugin.rb
should make it clear what these are doing. Reading the `HashtagAutocompleteService`
in full will likely help a lot as well.
Each data source is responsible for providing its own **lookup** and **search**
method that returns hashtag results based on the arguments provided. For example,
the category hashtag data source has to take into account parent categories and
how they relate, and each data source has to define their own icon to use for the
hashtag, and so on.
The `Site` serializer has two new attributes that source data from `HashtagAutocompleteService`.
There is `hashtag_icons` that is just a simple array of all the different icons that
can be used for allowlisting in our markdown pipeline, and there is `hashtag_context_configurations`
that is used to store the type priority orders for each registered context.
When sending emails, we cannot render the SVG icons for hashtags, so
we need to change the HTML hashtags to the normal `#hashtag` text.
**Markdown**
The `hashtag-autocomplete.js` file is where I have added the new `hashtag-autocomplete`
markdown rule, and like all of our rules this is used to cook the raw text on both the clientside
and on the serverside using MiniRacer. Only on the server side do we actually reach out to
the database with the `hashtagLookup` function, on the clientside we just render a plainer
version of the hashtag HTML. Only in the composer preview do we do further lookups based
on this.
This rule is the first one (that I can find) that uses the `currentUser` based on a passed
in `user_id` for guardian checks in markdown rendering code. This is the `last_editor_id`
for both the post and chat message. In some cases we need to cook without a user present,
so the `Discourse.system_user` is used in this case.
**Chat Channels**
This also contains the changes required for chat so that chat channels can be used
as a data source for hashtag searches and lookups. This data source will only be
used when `enable_experimental_hashtag_autocomplete` is `true`, so we don't have
to worry about channel results suddenly turning up.

**Known Rough Edges**
- Onebox excerpts will not render the icon svg/use tags, I plan to address that in a follow up PR
- Selecting a hashtag + pressing the Quote button will result in weird behaviour, I plan to address that in a follow up PR
- Mixed hashtag contexts for hashtags without a type suffix will not work correctly, e.g. #ux which is both a category and a channel slug will resolve to a category when used inside a post or within a [chat] transcript in that post. Users can get around this manually by adding the correct suffix, for example ::channel. We may get to this at some point in future
- Icons will not show for the hashtags in emails since SVG support is so terrible in email (this is not likely to be resolved, but still noting for posterity)
- Additional refinements and review fixes wil
Follow up to 766bcbc684
Makes ChatMessage.last_editor_id and ChatMessageRevision.user_id
NOT NULL since they are always filled in now and the last commit
had a migration to backfill this data.
This commit adds last_editor_id to ChatMessage for parity with Post in
core, as well as adding user_id to the ChatMessageRevision record since
we need to know who is making edits and revisions to messages, in case
in future we want to allow more than just the current user to edit chat
messages. The backfill for data here simply uses the record's creating
user ID, but in future if we allow other people to edit the messages it
will use their ID.
This is a followup of the previous refactor where we created two new
models to handle all the dedicated logic that was present in the
`ChatChannel` model.
For the sake of consistency, `DMChannel` has been renamed to
`DirectMessageChannel` and the previous `DirectMessageChannel` model is
now named `DirectMessage`. This should help reasoning about direct
messages.
