When initialized, or when expiration-related attributes change, expiring
messages will set timers to self-destruct. On self-destruct they trigger
'expired' events so that frontend listeners can clean up any collections
and views referencing them.
At startup, load all messages pending expiration so they can start their
timers even if they haven't been loaded in the frontend yet.
Todo: Remove expired conversation snippets from the left pane.
Move away from inline style attributes for setting contact colors.
Apply colors by name via css classes instead. Also lays groundwork
for syncing contact colors.
// FREEBIE
Fixes a session management problem where, after resolving a conflict
with some contact, that contact would get bad mac as a result of us
sending them a new prekey message before processing a pending conflicted
prekey message received from them earlier.
Fixes#806

When deleting all messages in a conversation, the entry in the left pane
should be inserted into the alphabetical portion of the list. To keep it
in this collection, do not nullify active_at.
To ensure the list view is keeping itself correctly sorted, make sure
that resorting behavior is triggered any time a relevant attribute is
changed.
This fixes deleted conversations jumping to the top of the list, and
conversation order scrambling when getting a group or contact sync
message from our master device.
Fixes#734
// FREEBIE
Previously, if a message was sent in between the receive time of an
incoming message and the time it is actually added to the conversation's
message collection (which only occurs later after several async
callbacks), the incoming message would be inserted not-at-the-end of the
collection since it is ordered by receive time. This tricked the front
end into assuming the message was an older message instead of a new one.
Fixes#490
// FREEBIE
Remove individual messages from Notifications when marked read.
Previously this was only done from the conversation model when marking
the entire conversation as read.
Fixes#717
// FREEBIE
Since the introduction of infinite scroll, the delete messages function
has only deleted the currently loaded set of messages in a conversation.
To fix this, we should fetch all the messages and then delete them.
Fixes#645
// FREEBIE
Refactor libphonenumber.validateNumber into libphonenumber.parseNumber,
which encapsulates the try-catch pattern used in number parsing and
returns an object of info about the input number rather tha throwing
since we expect to get some invalid number inputs the user is typing.
In the conversation model,
* Separate phone number validation from search token updating.
* Perform token update before save if the number was valid.
* Stop storing unneeded number variants as conversation properties.
// FREEBIE
Search box finds or creates a conversation given a phone number in
local (to the user's region) or international format.
Previously you had to enter e164 format to set up the conversation
correctly.
If the number is not valid, do not open the conversation.
TODO: user feedback on invalid numbers.
// FREEBIE
Previously, libtextsecure would send a sync message automatically
when appropriate. This fails if any recipient has a key conflict
or if our network connection fails mid-send.
Instead, when appropriate, return a the DataMessage encoded as an array
buffer for later syncing. This lets the application choose when to send
it, which we now do after any successful send to a recipient, rather
than after all recipients are successfully sent to.
Eventually we should move the DataMessage protobuf construction and
group sending logic to the application layer entirely, in which case
we wouldn't need libtextsecure to construct the sync message either.
Fixes#408
Create a cleaner seperation between generating notifications
and updating frontend conversation views. The former is now
handled by `conversation.notify` while the latter is achieved
by triggering an event on the conversation model, which will
only be acted on if there are any views listening for it.
Additionally, instead of re-fetching the entire message history,
which is overkill, just add or update the new/modified message.
This will help speed up the newmessage event handler and also
help avoid unnecessary re-rendering when resolving key conflicts.
// FREEBIE
Previously, with a mix of text and media messages in conflict,
asynchronous callbacks aligned so as to fail to remove some of
the conflict objects on messages.
Fix by serializing conflict processing, but making sure to move
on through the message list even if some conflict resolutions fail.
Fixes#370
// FREEBIE
Using the search field produces a filtered view of all contacts and
groups containing the input. To make this fast and scalable, add an
index on a 'tokens' array containing words from the conversation name
and different forms of phone number.
Closes#365
// FREEBIE
Refactor outgoing message error handling to use the same success and
error handlers. This creates a somewhat strange pattern, where we call
send and pass in the promise that resolves when sending is complete, but
there's enough variety in the libtextsecure syntax for different message
sending routines that it belongs at the conversation level and only the
post-processing stuff is really shared by all messages.
// FREEBIE
When resolving conflicts, we should not only discard the old key, but
set the new trusted key to the one the user has verified. Previously, we
would end up trusting the first-seen new key, which may not be the one
the user verified.
// FREEBIE
This trigger function uses chrome's runtime message passing api, which
traverses between different windows in our runtime, but we only trigger
the updateInbox event from the backgroud page, so we don't need to use
that api, which requires some extra cpu/memory overhead.
// FREEBIE
We're overriding the default with null often enough that we should
just change the default.
Consequently, no more phantom blank conversations with oneself should
appear after receiving a group update. They were being added to the
inbox because they were incorrectly initialized with an active_at value.
Fixes#281
The unset function, and the series of events/callbacks triggered by its
use, are not as similar to the set/save functions as previously
anticipated, leading to flux in the state of the 'pending' attribute.
Fixes#283
// FREEBIE
Fixes#264
Implement the equivalent of java's String.hashCode on the conversation model.
Change avatar template and attributes. Use css classes for colors.
Update protobuf definitions and refactor message receive and decrypt
codepath to support new protocol, including various flavors of sync
messages (sent messages, contacts, and groups).
Also cleans up background.js and lets libtextsecure internalize
textsecure.processDecrypted and ensure that it is called before handing
DataMessages off to the application.
The Envelope structure now has a generic content field and a
legacyMessage field for backwards compatibility. We'll send outgoing
messages as legacy messages, and sync messages as "content" while
continuing to support both legacy and non-legacy messages on the receive
side until old clients have a chance to transition.
These collections should always be operating with the same model
instances, so let the inbox reset it self from the same in-memory
cache of conversation models used by the conversation windows.
