This moves chat tracking state calculation for channels
and threads into a central Chat::TrackingStateManager service, that
serves a similar purpose to the TopicTrackingState model
in core.
This service calls down to these query classes:
* ThreadUnreadsQuery
* ChannelUnreadsQuery
To get the unread_count and mention_count for the appropriate
channels and threads.
As well as this, this commit refactors the client-side chat
tracking state.
Now, there is a central ChatTrackingStateManager Ember Service
so all tracking is accessible and can be counted from one place,
which can also initialize tracking from an initial payload.
The actual tracking counts are now maintained in a ChatTrackingState
class that is initialized on the `.tracking` property of both channel and
thread objects.
This removes the attributes on UserChatChannelMembership and decoration
of said membership from ChannelFetcher, preferring instead to have an additional
object for tracking in the JSON.
A chat message may be restored later, so we shouldn't be deleting `chat_mentions` records for it.
But we still have to remove notifications (see 082cd139).
When the user sends a message in a thread, we want to
create a membership for them in the background (default
to notification level of Watching) so we can track whether
they have read the thread.
Then, for now since we don't have granular message reading/
scrolling in the thread panel, we just update the thread
last_read_message_id for the user to the latest reply in the
thread when they open the thread panel. This at least will
mark the thread as read.
In future PRs we want to show the blue dot indicator in various
places in the UI for unread threads which will also require
some MessageBus functionality.
This takes into account the same issue fixed for channels
in ae3231e140
When setting DISCOURSE_ZEITWERK_EAGER_LOAD=1 to enable
eager loading the previous solution to adding chat_levels
to the core NotificationLevels would break with a module
loading error (c.f. cc2570fce3)
We don't actually _need_ to extend the core class, we can just
make our own for chat, let's do this instead.
This will enable us to begin work on user tracking
state for a thread so we can show thread-specific
unreads and mentions indicators. In this case are following
the core notification_level paradigm rather than the solution
UserChatChannelMembership went with, and eventually we
will want to refactor the other table to match this as well.

Since we have channel message retention which deletes
messages, we can end up with cases where the thread
is still around but the message is deleted. We will
handle the cascade delete in a different commit --
for now we will ensure the thread list lookup handles
this case and doesn't error.
After this change, in order to join a chat channel, a user needs to be in a group with at least “Reply” permission for the category. If the user only has “See” permission, they are able to preview the channel, but not join it or send messages. The auto-join function also follows this new restriction.

This commit adds an initial thread list UI. There are several limitations
with this that will be addressed in future PRs:
* There is no MessageBus reactivity, so e.g. if someone edits the original
message of the thread it will not be reflected in the list. However if
the thread title is updated the original message indicator will be updated.
* There is no unread functionality for threads in the list, if new messages
come into the thread there is no indicator in the UI.
* There is no unread indicator on the actual button to open the thread list.
* No pagination.
In saying that, this is the functionality so far:
* We show a list of the 50 threads that the user has most recently participated
in (i.e. sent a message) for the channel in descending order.
* Each thread we show a rich excerpt, the title, and the user who is the OM creator.
* The title is editable by staff and by the OM creator.
* Thread indicators show a title. We also replace emojis in the titles.
* Thread list works in the drawer/mobile.
- `ChatChannel`
- `UserChatChannelMembership`
Also creates a new `chat-direct-message` model used as the object for the`chatable` property of the `ChatChannel` when the `ChatChannel` is a direct message channel. When the chatable is a category a real `Category` object will now be returned.
Archive state of a `ChatChannel` is now hold in a `ChatChannelArchive` object.
When we were deleting messages in chat, we would find all of
the UserChatChannelMembership records that had a matching
last_read_message_id and set that column to NULL.
This became an issue when multiple users had that deleted message
set to their last_read_message_id. When we called ChannelUnreadsQuery
to get the unread count for each of the user's channels, we were
COALESCing the last_read_message_id and returning 0 if it was NULL,
which meant that the unread count for the channel would be the total
count of the messages not sent by the user in that channel.
This was particularly noticeable for DM channels since we show
the count with the indicator in the header. This issue would disappear
as soon as the user opened the problem channel, because we would then
set the last_read_message_id to an actual ID.
To circumvent this, instead of NULLifying the last_read_message_id in
most cases, it makes more sense to just set it to the most recent
non-deleted chat message ID for the channel. The only time it will
be set to NULL now is when there are no more other messages in the
channel.
We need to create and update `chat_mentions` records for messages earlier. They should be created or updated before we call `Chat::Publisher.publish_new!` `Chat::Publisher.publish_edit!` to send the message to message bus subscribers).
This logic is covered with tests in `message_creator_spec.rb`, `message_updater_spec.rb`, `notifier_spec.rb` and `notify_mentioned_spec.rb`.
See the commits history for steps of refactoring.
This commit implements all the necessary logic to create thread seamlessly. For this it relies on the same logic used for messages and generates a `staged-id`(using the format: `staged-thread-CHANNEL_ID-MESSAGE_ID` which is used to re-conciliate state client sides once the thread has been persisted on the backend.
Part of this change the client side is now always using real thread and channel objects instead of sometimes relying on a flat `threadId` or `channelId`.
This PR also brings three UX changes:
- thread starts from top
- number of buttons on message actions is dependent of the width of the enclosing container
- <kbd>shift + ArrowUp</kbd> will reply to the last message
* FIX: Link to thread for mentions inside thread
When mentioning a user in a thread, when we send the
notification and display it in the UI we want the URL
of the notification to point to the thread URL to open
the panel, rather than the main channel which is confusing.
For now, we don't have a way to highlight the linked-to message
in the thread, we can revisit this later.
* FIX: Mark mention notifications read when thread opens
Since we have no scrolling/message visibility/thread membership
for now, when a user opens the thread panel we just want to mark
all mention notifications relating to messages in the thread
for the user as read.
Further followup to 24ec06ff85,
where I prevented other chat scheduled jobs from running if
chat was disabled. We should not be running any plugin scheduled
jobs if that plugin is disabled, it can cause unexpected
behaviour.
This was reverted in 38cebd3ed5.
The issue was that I was using Discourse.redis.delete_prefixed
which does a slow redis KEYS lookup, which is not advised in
production. This commit removes that, and also ensures the periodical
thread count update only happens if threading is enabled.
I changed to use a redis INCR/DECR for reply count
cache. This avoids a round trip to redis to GET the current
count, and also avoids multi-process issues, where
if there's two processes trying to increment at the
same time, they may both receive the same value, add one
to it, then both write the same value back.
Then, it's only n+1 instead of n+2.
This also prevents almost all chat scheduled jobs from
running if chat is disabled, the only one remaining is
the message retention job.
This commit moves the category channel creation out
of the Chat::Api::Channel controller and into a
dedicated CreateCategoryChannel service. A follow up
commit will move the DM channel creation out of
the old DirectMessageChannelCreator service.
Also includes a new on_model_errors helper
for chat service class usage, that collects model
validation errors to present in a nice way.

Followup to bd5c5c4b5f, a
bug was introduced there for any channel that did not have
threading enabled or sites with the experimental threading
disabled. When the user replied to another chat message,
since this is always a thread in the background, we weren't
sending any MessageBus messages to the main channel, since
the message was a thread reply.
However in the UI these messages still show in the main stream
of the channel if threading is turned off, so the UI was not
reacting to these things happening in the backend. The worst
issue was that new clients would not see new replies sent in
reply to other messages in the channel.
We currently don't have a nice UI to show unread messages for the thread,
and it will take some time to create one. For now, this commit makes it so
new messages inside a thread do not count towards a chat channel's unread
counts, and new messages sent in a thread do not update a user's `last_read_message_id`
for a channel.
In addition, this PR refactors the `Chat::ChannelFetcher` to use the `Chat::ChannelUnreadsQuery`
query class for consistency, and made said class able to return zeroed-out records
for channels the user is not a member of.
Finally, a small bug is fixed here where if a user's `last_read_message_id` for
a channel was a thread's OM ID, then the thread OM would not show in the
main channel stream for them until another reply to the channel was posted.
This commit introduces a redis cache over the top of the thread
replies_count DB cache, so that we can quickly and accurately
increment/decrement the reply count for all users and not have
to constantly update the database-level count. This is done so
the UI can have a count that is displayed to the users on each
thread indicator, that appears to live update on each chat
message create/trash/recover inside the thread.
This commit also introduces the `Chat::RestoreMessage` service
and moves the restore endpoint into the `Api::ChannelMessages`
controller as part of incremental migrations to move things out
of ChatController.
Finally, this commit refactors `Chat::Publisher` to be less repetitive
with its `MessageBus` sending code.
Followup to bd5c5c4b5f,
this commit hooks up the bulk delete events for chat
messages inside the thread panel, by fanning out the
deleted message IDs based on whether they belong to
a thread or not.
Also adds a system spec to cover this case, as previously
the bulk delete event would have been broken with an incorrect
`typ` rather than `type` hash key.
Followup to ba11cf4767,
this commit makes it so that none of the chat message
thread data is serialized if threading_enabled is false
for the channel or if enable_experimental_chat_threaded_discussions
is false, there is no need to serialize the data in this
case.
This regression happened in bd5c5c4b5f and is due to `message_bus_targets = calculate_publish_targets(chat_channel, chat_message)` expecting a `chat_channel` which was only defined after.
Example exception in logs:

This commit also:
- adds a spec to ensure oneboxing is not regressing anymore
- increment the version on message processed to ensure callbacks are correctly ran
Note we should also have more tests in `Chat::Publisher`, this will be done when we move it to a proper service.
<!-- NOTE: All pull requests should have tests (rspec in Ruby, qunit in JavaScript). If your code does not include test coverage, please include an explanation of why it was omitted. -->
It is yet to investigate the exact reasons leading to this, but probably due to some delete operation or migration, it seems possible to have a message with a thread_id leading to a non existing thread row. This is only a temporary solution to prevent the crash. We should also probably be more defensive here and not include any of this if threading is not enabled.
This commit introduces a ChatChannelPaneSubscriptionsManager
and a ChatChannelThreadPaneSubscriptionsManager that inherits
from the first service that handle MessageBus subscriptions
for the main channel and the thread panel respectively.
This necessitated a change to Chat::Publisher to be able to
send MessageBus messages to multiple channels based on whether
a message was an OM for a thread, a thread reply, or a regular
channel message.
An initial change to update the thread indicator with new replies
has been done too, but that will be improved in future as we have
more data to update on the indicators.
Still remaining is to fully move over the handleSentMessage
functionality which includes scrolling and new message indicator
things.

This feature will allow sites to define which emoji are not allowed. Emoji in this list should be excluded from the set we show in the core emoji picker used in the composer for posts when emoji are enabled. And they should not be allowed to be chosen to be added to messages or as reactions in chat.
This feature prevents denied emoji from appearing in the following scenarios:
- topic title and page title
- private messages (topic title and body)
- inserting emojis into a chat
- reacting to chat messages
- using the emoji picker (composer, user status etc)
- using search within emoji picker
It also takes into account the various ways that emojis can be accessed, such as:
- emoji autocomplete suggestions
- emoji favourites (auto populates when adding to emoji deny list for example)
- emoji inline translations
- emoji skintones (ie. for certain hand gestures)
This commit introduces a new thread indicator for channels with `threading_enabled`
set to true and the `enable_exp` site setting set to true. In addition, in the main channel
stream we now hide all messages that are linked to threads except for the original message,
disabling the concept of an "echo mode" for now, we may revisit this in future. We also
remove the jigsaw puzzle "Open Thread" button for message actions, since the thread
indicator can just be used instead.
This also stops the `Chat::Publisher` from sending any messages related to chat
messages that are linked to a thread, unless that chat message is the OM of the
thread. A subsequent PR will link up all MessageBus events within the thread panel,
and for the message indicators.
Another subsequent PR will add the excerpt of the latest message in each thread,
as well as the avatars of the users messaging in the thread.

Similar to 22a55ef0ce,
this commit adds a replies_count to the Chat::Thread
table, which is updated every 15 minutes via PeriodicalUpdates.
This is done so the new thread indicator for the UI can
show the count without intense serializer queries, but
in future we likely want this to update more frequently.
When a chat message is trashed and the message is used
for someone's UserChatChannelMembership#last_read_message_id,
the user would end up with some read state issues until
someone posted a new message in the channel, since we didn't
clear it like we did on bulk message delete.
This commit fixes the issue, and also takes the opportunity
to start a MessagesController in the API namespace, and move
the trash message functionality into the new service format.
Followup to 0924f874bd,
we migrated Chat::Upload records to UploadReference records
there and have not been making new Chat::Upload records
for some time, we can now delete the model and table.
This adds specs to the mentioned serializers to catch regressions
with MessageBus last_ids and to ensure the correct ones are being
returned and passed down to the ChannelSerializer.
Followup to d8ad5c3
Followup to 3ea8df4b06,
I forgot to wrap the call to Chat::Publisher.root_message_bus_channel(object.chat_channel.id)
in MessageBus.last_id, so the channel_message_bus_last_id key was
ending up as e.g. "/chat/58" instead of the last ID value.
We noticed via profiling that chat was doing N redis calls
per channel. Part of this was from the kick_message_bus_last_id
from 520d4f504b being incorrectly
passed down for DM channels rather that public channels, and the
other part was from the root MessageBus channel last_id
being fetched in ChannelSerializer for every single channel.
This commit fixes both issues, for me going from 134 redis calls
on page load to 20 locally.
Also deletes an old file missed in 12a18d4d55
Followup cab4b2cfba,
this was causing client JS errors because the old version
of the client was expecting the old keys, but the new
ruby version of the app was sending different keys via
the MessageBus payload. We can remove this in a couple
of weeks.
This commit introduces a Chat::Publisher and MessageBus endpoint
that allows for updating a user's channel tracking state in bulk for
multiple channels, rather than having to do it for one channel
at a time.
This also required an improvement to ChannelUnreadsQuery -- now
multiple channel IDs can be passed to this to get the unread counts
and mention counts for those channels for a user, also increasing
efficiency rather than having to do a query for every individual
channel.
Followup to #20802
Instead of just marking the state read in JS for each channel
after the AJAX call, we can instead just rely on the MessageBus
user-tracking-state chat channel, and publish the state to all
the channels affected in MarkAllUserChannelsRead. This will make
it so the blue dots for the channels are cleared across all tabs.
This commit adds a keyboard shortcut (Shift+ESC) for chat which marks all
of the chat channels that the user is currently a following member of as read,
updating their `last_read_message_id`. This is done via a new service.
It also includes some refactors and controller changes:
* The old mark message read route from `ChatController` is now supplanted
by the `Chat::Api::ReadsController#update` route.
* The new controller can handle either marking a single or all messages read,
and uses the correct service based on the route and params.
* The `UpdateUserLastRead` service is now used (it wasn't before), and has been slightly
updated to just use the guardian user ID.
There are many situations that may cause users to lose permission to
send messages in a chat channel. Until now we have relied on security
checks in `Chat::ChatChannelFetcher` to remove channels which the
user may have a `UserChatChannelMembership` record for but which
they do not have access to.
This commit takes a more proactive approach. Now any of these following
`DiscourseEvent` triggers may cause `UserChatChannelMembership`
records to be deleted:
* `category_updated` - Permissions of the category changed
(i.e. CategoryGroup records changed)
* `user_removed_from_group` - Means the user may not be able to access the
channel based on `GroupUser` or also `chat_allowed_groups`
* `site_setting_changed` - The `chat_allowed_groups` was updated, some
users may no longer be in groups that can access chat.
* `group_destroyed` - Means the user may not be able to access the
channel based on `GroupUser` or also `chat_allowed_groups`
All of these are handled in a distinct service run in a background
job. Users removed are logged via `StaffActionLog` and then we
publish messages on a per-channel basis to users who had their
memberships deleted.
When the user has a channel they are kicked from open, we show
a dialog saying "You no longer have access to this channel".
When they click OK we redirect them either:
* To their first other public channel, if they have any followed
* The chat browse page if they don't
This is to save on tons of requests from kicked out users getting messages
from other channels.
When the user does not have the kicked channel open, we can just
silently yoink it out of their sidebar and turn off subscriptions.
This commit does a couple of things:
* Adds the ability to load messages in the chat thread panel when it is open. This just loads the most recent N messages, same as a channel, and does nothing more, no scrolling or anything like that.
* Displays the messages in an extremely simple unordered list with no additional features.
* Allows posting new messages to the thread, and echoes them into the main channel, but does not respond to any sort of MessageBus events.
I've moved messages/clearMessages/addMessages/findMessage code out of the `ChatChannel` model
and into a new `ChatMessagesManager` class, which is instantiated in both the `ChatChannel` model
and the `ChatThread` model. This allows both to manage messages in the same way via the
`TrackedArray` pattern.
This is all hidden behind experimental flags, there is no way to make this not completely broken
in a single commit. Much more work and refactoring needs to be done first.

This commit main goal was to comply with Zeitwerk and properly rely on autoloading. To achieve this, most resources have been namespaced under the `Chat` module.
- Given all models are now namespaced with `Chat::` and would change the stored types in DB when using polymorphism or STI (single table inheritance), this commit uses various Rails methods to ensure proper class is loaded and the stored name in DB is unchanged, eg: `Chat::Message` model will be stored as `"ChatMessage"`, and `"ChatMessage"` will correctly load `Chat::Message` model.
- Jobs are now using constants only, eg: `Jobs::Chat::Foo` and should only be enqueued this way
Notes:
- This commit also used this opportunity to limit the number of registered css files in plugin.rb
- `discourse_dev` support has been removed within this commit and will be reintroduced later
<!-- NOTE: All pull requests should have tests (rspec in Ruby, qunit in JavaScript). If your code does not include test coverage, please include an explanation of why it was omitted. -->
Mentions are now displayed as using the non-cooked message which fixes
the problem. This is not ideal. I think we might want to rework how
these excerpts are created and rendered in the near future.

`create_notification!` - creates a notification in the database, `send_notifications` sends desktop and mobile notifications. This PR moves some code to decouple these two tasks more explicitly. It only moves code without changing any behavior, and the job is covered with tests (see chat_notify_mentioned_spec).
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.
- group writes when computing separators positions
- shows skeleton only on initial load
- forces date separator to be pinned when first message to prevent a pinned - not pinned - pinned sequence when loading more in past
- relies on `message.visible` property instead of checking `isElementInViewport`
- attempts to load next/prev messages earlier
- do not scroll to on fetch more
- hides `last visit` text while pinned
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
