- 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
VCards were being created before `fetch` was completed, so once fetch
was done those VCards were unset from their collection.
Add a new event and promise `VCardsInitialized` that triggers after
successful fetching and wait for it before creating VCards.
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.
This fix forces Converse.js to respect auto_join_rooms and allow auto join room to occur with server-side generated random room names as required for XEP 0142 - workgroup queues
Lately we've been fetching messages only after entering the MUC, so that
we already have occupants to attach to them (due to `fetchMembers` being
called before) and thereby avoid rerenders.
I've now moved message fetching into the `initialize` method and added
missing event handlers for attaching/removing the occupant from a
message as it comes online or goes offline.
We still avoid (some) rerenders because we fetch and wait for cached
occupants before fetching cached messages and we wait for `fetchMembers`
before triggering `enteredNewRoom` which causes MAM messages to be
fetched.
We want to fetch messages from cache only once. For one-on-one chats
this is the case because messages are fetched only in the `initialize`
method.
This used to be the case for MUCs as well, until we added the option
`clear_messages_on_reconnection`.
Now we only fetch messages after the user has entered the MUC.
We don't remove the existing chatboxes and upon refetching they
become stale and get removed (by Backbone) and then the UI for
them becomes unresponsive.
Includes some refactoring:
- Don't send an `active` chat state notification when entering a MUC
I can't think of a good reason why this might be necessary or desired.
- Move `setChatState` form the view to the model
- Remove unused method `handleChatStateNotification`
- Don't store `role` and `affiliation` for the current user on the
ChatRoom object, but instead on the ChatRoomOccupant object representing
the user.
In some cases, it might be desirable to clear cached chat messages once you've
reconnected to the XMPP server.
For example, if you want to prevent the chat history from getting too long or
if you want to avoid gaps in the chat history (for example due to MAM not
returning all messages since the last cached message).
If you're using OMEMO, then you probably don't want to set this setting to
``true``. OMEMO messages can be decrypted only once, so if they then
subsequently get cleared, you won't get the plaintext back.
