It's better to parse an incoming message stanza early, than to have
all kinds of methods throughout the codebase that does querySelector
etc.
Firstly, it allows us to catch and report errors and malicious stanzas early on.
It also simplifies programming because you don't need to try and
remember how to properly parse a stanza, all the work is done upfront
for you.
- Move headless one-on-one chat functionality into converse-chat
- Split converse-headline into converse-headlines and converse-headlines-views
- Add api in `_converse.api.chatboxes` for creating chatboxes
- Add `_converse.api.controlbox.get` method
Depend on latest backbone.browserStorage which has support for IndexedDB
via localforage.
Storage operations are now asynchronous and transactional.
Bugs fixed (mostly by waiting for operations to complete):
* Rooms are now fetched asynchronously, so wait before triggering `show`
or when closing.
* Make sure chat create/update transactions complete before firing events
* Make sure chats and messages have been fetched before creating new ones.
* When doing a `fetch` with `wait: false` on a collection and then
creating a model in that collection, then once the read
operation finishes (after creating the model), the collection is emptied again.
* Patch and wait when saving.
Otherwise we have previously set attributes overriding later ones.
* Make sure api.roomviews.close returns a promise
Test fixes:
* Chats are now asynchronously returned, so we need to use `await`
* Wait for the storage transaction to complete when creating and updating messages
* Wait for all chatboxes to close
Otherwise we get sessionStorage inconsistencies due to the async nature of localforage.
* Wait for room views to close in spec/chatroom.js
In the process, remove the `closeAllChatBoxes` override in
converse-controlbox by letting the `close` method decide whether it
should be closed or not.
- Combine all test init functions into `initConverse`
- Use `async` functions in more tests
- Replace `var` with `let` and `const` in more tests
- New utils method `toStanza` which converts a string to a Node
Couldn't handle messages with no "from" attribute.
Some refactoring to add code that checks if a messages is a headline to the
utils module.
Updated tests. Add sinon so that we can test returned value of spy.
