Not yet using the new APIs, but ready to. Still to do:
- Send sync messages on trust decisions
- Respond to received trust decision sync messages
- Show trust decisions in the conversation history
- In that rare situation where a sent message ends up with a key error
make it easy to retry the send.
FREEBIE
Also:
- All the necessary wire-up to update things in real time. If you have
a safety number page up via a group member view as well as via a 1:1
conversation with that contact, they'll both be updated as the
underlying model changes. Similarly, the overall group will update
in real-time as members change.
- A bit of special-casing for yourself in a group conversation - you're
shown as 'me' and are not clickable, where normally that would take you
to the Safety Number screen for that contact. You are also not included
in the trust calculations for a given group.
FREEBIE
To handle the same 'not quite at the bottom' case that our 30px buffer
gives us for marking messages read, we use the same atBottom() method to
determine whether we should mark everything unread. Saves the effort and
potential missed messages (due to partial pixels, etc.).
FREEBIE
- Only mark messages read when scrolling if in focus and visible
- Remove last seen indicator when scrolling to the bottom with scroll
down button
- Update last seen indicator when we don't already have one and we're
scrolled up.
FREEBIE
It can be moved if you're not scrolled to the bottom of of the window
or the window doesn't have focus when a new message comes in. Other than
that, it marches up the window until you close and reopen the
conversation, or send a message.
Note that we do NOT mark messages as read if they come in when you are
scrolled up. But we do mark the entire conversation as read if you
switch away from the app and back.
FREEBIE
* Remove increment behavior
* Dismiss when new messages arrive but the window is focused
* Update the indicator when window becomes focused.
// FREEBIE
This is to ensure that when there are a lot of unread messages, the user
is given the chance to see all of them by being scrolled to the oldest
new message.
When a new message comes in, the indicator will be incremented.
When the user sends a message or switches away from the conversation,
the last seen indicator will be removed.
FREEBIE
There are some cases when we want to initialize a group object without
loading its contacts, such as while processing delivery receipts. We
really only need to load the contacts for a group/convo when we are
rendering it, so let the front end handle those cases (which most of
them do already).
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.
Test page loads fixtures and renders the inbox view. This may be useful
for smoke testing style changes or generating screenshots with
pseudo-realistic data.
Includes a couple small changes to get rendering working outside the
app.
Use emojijs for replacing unicode with image tags for display. We were
already using it to replace colons with unicode. Additionally it has
a companion data repo that is kept up to date with images from all
the common image sets.
// FREEBIE
Messages that are received in the active conversation while the window
is focused, are automatically marked as read.
The conversation appears as unread for a split second as the incoming message
arrives but it gets marked as read as soon as the message is displayed.
The window title now shows the global number of unread messages as
"Signal (1)". This way the user can see the number of unread messages
in the task bar and when alt-tabbing.
Resolves: #384
We don't need to keep them in memory if we're done viewing them,
plus it avoids having to re-render a large collection when we re-open a
conversation. Now that we only load a sensible number of messages at a
time, caching them between usages is less valuable. Removing them from
the collection should free them for garbage collection.
// FREEBIE
Only load the most recent messages when initially rendering a
conversation. Scrolling to the top of a message list loads older
messages.
This required some slight refactoring of how we insert message elements
into the dom. If the message is added to the end of the collection,
append it at the end. Otherwise, assume it is an older message and
prepend it.
When adding elements to the top, reset the scrollPosition to its
previous distance from scrollHeight. This keeps the current set of
elements fixed in the viewport.
// FREEBIE
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
* Don't open message detail views from message detail views
* When message errors change, re-render the error state, but
not the message markup and contents.
* Fix renderErrors bug not removing the error class correctly.
// FREEBIE
Opening two message-detail views in two separate conversations would
disappear one of the conversations. Fixed by better encapsulating the
sub-views of a conversation.
// FREEBIE
Only fetch them from a frontend view. If the conversation is not open,
we don't need to load the messages, and if we do load them, they will
render before we've done the initial contact info loading (as
implemented in 74e96ce).
Fixes#344
// FREEBIE
Makes the groupupdate and recipient input fields stick to the top,
restyles the typeahead as a floating dropdown list of suggestions
rather than a full width component, fixes group avatar thumbnail
rendering.
