Replaces libinterface's ToolButton, a custom button that can display
a pop-up menu on click (along with a custom image). It didn't scale well
with different themes and font-sizes compared to BButtons― which
ToolButton is supposed to look like to begin with.
A BButton-derived class is used instead, so these buttons look more
in-place among other buttons.
CreateAccountMenu() is used to populate a BMenu with items corresponding
to the map of accounts provided to it― but when an account is disabled
or enabled, it can't update automatically.
A dedicated class, fAccountsMenu, now replaces it― it'll automatically
repopulate the list whenever the active accounts update.
Currently, add-ons are disconnected when ChatProtocol::Shutdown() is
called, which the add-on can do by itself― but there is no standard way
for add-ons to notify the app about their Shutdown. Because of this,
they tend to not call Shutdown()― instead (as in the case of the Jabber
add-on), they display a BAlert (IM_ERROR) notifying the user of the
connection error, but the account is considered active by Cardie (and
its threads are still existant, including its ProtocolLooper).
Zombies are bad, so this is redesigned somewhat with this commit:
Protocols should no longer call ChatProtocol::Shutdown() themselves,
they must send an IM_MESSAGE of IM_PROTOCOL_DISABLE to the app.
This will delete its ProtocolLooper, which in turn will send a
notification to the user and delete the ChatProtocol, and so
calling ChatProtocol::Shutdown().
In the included protocols, an IM_ERROR is sent right before
IM_PROTOCOL_DISABLE is sent if due to a connection error. This is not
required, but it is courteous to inform your user about the "why." :)
Like the notification sent when accounts are ready (IM_PROTOCOL_READY),
one's been added for when accounds have disconnected/are disabled:
IM_PROTOCOL_DISABLED.
Also, error BAlerts (created with IM_ERROR messages) are now more
detailed, showing the associated accounts' name in the header.
Connection errors are now sent to Cardie through an IM_ERROR message
(which appear in a BAlert), and an IM_PROTOCOL_DISABLED IM_MESSAGE is
sent to Cardie when the account is disabled/connection fails.
When a new message is posted (or the user is messaged), the room's item
in the roomlist is now highlighted, like Vision.
Chat also auto-scrolls when new messages are posted.
If the user's in a one-on-one chat, notify on every message― otherwise,
only notify when the user's name/ID is mentioned by another user.
Notifications should be managed by roomflags, but that's for another
time.
Base-level replacement of the Vision-derived text RunView― a couple
important features supported by the replacee haven't been implemented yet,
including:
* Right-click menu
* URL-highlighting/selection
* Emote support
The StatusView (below the roomlist) now shows a default icon if no
accounts have associated avatars, and will use an account's cached avatar
if available.
The BTextBox used for sending messages has been moved from the main
window to individual ConversationViews, allowing seperate histories,
texts, etc., to exist in different conversations.
EditingFilter (a filter that hooked into MainWindow) was previously used
to field special key combos with this textbox, including "ENTER" for
sending, but this has been replaced with a new textview subclass
(SendTextView).
It doesn't make sense to lump the user themself with their contacts
list― their Contact object is now stored seperately.
BBitmap loading for RosterItems are fixed, as well.
Fixes#33
Sometimes a protocol's commands are dynamic, or change based on certain
events― and it's necessary in these cases that commands be reloaded.
The IM_PROTOCOL_RELOAD_COMMANDS message is now added to the API, which
will force Cardie to reload commands from the protocol.
The "room" template has been split into two seperate
templates― "join_room" and "create_room". Before, "room" was used in the
room creation window, but now that's delegated to "create_room".
"join_room" is used with the join window― so now, the add-on has total
control over the slots used to join/create rooms generally, if they
specify the templates. Even a "/join" command could be overriden by the
add-on.
Also, default templates are now in use. Rather than add-ons being
required to specify templates, there are sensible defaults included with
Cardie for each one.
The settings file-hierarchy has been changed a bit:
* Cardie/
* preferences
* Accounts/
* Cache/
* Accounts/
* Add-Ons/
`Cardie/Protocols` is now `Cardie/Accounts`, and the cache directory
has been split into two. `Cache/Accounts/` is for account-specific
cached data (e.g., cached roster icons, data, etc.), and
`Cache/Protocols` is for protocol-wide settings/data.
For purple, this will be used as the user's libpurple directory,
which has been moved from the default of `~/.purple` (yikes!)
Some plugin search-paths have been given to purple, too― lib
directories + "/purple2/", and Cardie/Cache/Add-Ons/purple/plugins/.
Registration of custom chat commands and menu-items for protocols was
done by the IM_REGISTER_* messages, and is now done through direct calls
to the CayaProtocol object.
The new model for call/message for protocols is this: Temporary
information (chat messages, roster members, etc.) should be accessed
through messages. Relatively static data (protocol name, commands)
should be accessed through direct calls to the protocol object.
Now roster members can be deleted through the RosterEditWindow.
IM_CONTACT_LIST_REMOVED_CONTACT was renamed to
IM_CONTACT_LIST_CONTACT_REMOVED to fit style of other API messages.
Fixes#1.
Roster members' can now be edited (through Roster->Edit Roster / CMD+R)
TemplateWindows can now be populated through sending any IM_MESSAGE to
it (it will assume the slots of the message correspond to the
template's).
IM_CONTACT_LIST_ADDED_CONTACT was removed (for redundancy), and
IM_CONTACT_LIST_EDIT_CONTACT was added.
The base for roster management (RosterEditWindow) has been made, and
adding new contacts works. Up next is contact removal and editing.
This leverages a new template (as defined in a protocol's
CayaProtocol::SettingsTemplate()), "roster," which should contain all
slots pertinent to editing/adding a contact member.
Two new API messages were added for this― IM_CONTACT_LIST_CONTACT_ADDED
and IM_CONTACT_LIST_CONTACT_REMOVED. The former will functionally just
be IM_CONTACT_INFO, but with some semantical meaning.
A new CayaMessage (CAYA_EDIT_ROSTER) was also added.
TemplateWindow was also edited to this end: Now, like RosterWindow/View,
it can be given a specific accounts' instance id, and it will prevent
the selection of another account. A new constructor was also added, to
allow a ProtocolTemplate to be explicitly passed to it― probably from
the program itself.
Most of RosterWindow's special functions have been split into a special
BGroupView (including both the roster search-box and roster list),
RosterView.
This will give some more flexibility in other uses of the roster list.
In addition, RosterViews can be tied to a specific account by its
looper's instance ID, allowing it to either show all contacts (globally;
if the ID is set to -1) or only those of the specified account.
This can be useful, for example, when inviting contacts to a room―
you can only invite contacts that use the same protocol, and are
associated with your account, so showing all contacts doesn't make
sense.
The SearchBarTextControl class was removed, as it isn't particularly
necessary.
Explicit room-creation using protocol's own "room" template is now
supported.
Two new protocol API messages were added― IM_CREATE_ROOM and
IM_ROOM_CREATED, which are parallels to IM_CREATE_CHAT and
IM_CHAT_CREATED. Rather than the latter two, though, these are wholy
based on the "room" template― their slots are completely determined by
the protocol.
A generic "TemplateWindow" was created, which allows catch-all creation
of windows that leverage protocols' templates. It's used for the
room-creation window (Chat->New Room / Alt+N), for example.
At some point, it ideally should replace even the JoinRoom window, and
maybe others.
A nice templating system is used for account settings dialogues― the
required slots are specified by the protocol, and are reflected in the
settings dialogue.
To generalize this templating system (and eventually use elsewhere),
ProtocolSettings was split into two classes― ProtocolSettings and
ProtocolTemplate.
The CayaProtocol::SettingsTemplate() call was also edited to require a
string parameter, naming the specific template that should be returned.
"account" is used for the account settings dialogue, and other values
are TBA.
Use IM_MESSAGEs, IM_REGISTER_COMMAND and IM_REGISTER_USER_ITEM, for
registering commands and user-list pop-up items.
The former replaces CayaProtocol::Commands(), which was a real bad idea
in the first place. Just awful. No idea why I did that instead of this,
which is nicer and significantly easier anyway.
With the new use of RoomFlags for signifying whether or not a room's
chat should be populated with local logs (ROOM_POPULATE_LOGS),
SaveLogs() is redundant.
A Commands() method was added to the CayaProtocol class returning a
CommandMap, which will be used by Caya when searching for commands.
KeyList::AddList() and List::AddList() were also added to libsupport,
for convenience.
A new class was added (ChatCommand) to represent commands, which are
all stored in the Server iself.
A command can be assigned any arbitrary BMessage, and can be given
arguments with some semantic meaning (so far just "string" or "room
participant," etc).
"invite" and moderation commands were added (ban/kick/mute etc).
This makes it so RunView's built-in timestamps are used― but requires
that a time_t be sent with each newly-appended line. This allows for lines to
be backdated or forward-dated.
Add a program-wide avatar cache― whenever a contact or user's avatar has
changed, it gets cached in ~/config/settings/Caya/Cache/$account/People
(for contacts) or $account/Users (for everyone else).
ImageCache is now used, only for caching the kPersonIcon resource image―
it might be useful later for other commonly used images (status
indicators, etc).
Fixes#4
In the API, a firm distinction between initially fetching a room's
metadata and receiving further changes has been made:
IM_ROOM_METADATA will be sent to Caya on request (IM_GET_ROOM_METADATA)
with the room's name, subject, etc. The other metadata-related messages
should only be sent to Caya after the room is initialized, not as a
means of initially setting its metadata.
Basic room flags were added, though they aren't yet used― they should
allow the protocol/add-on/user to configure some room features. Logging,
auto-joining, etc.
Rooms are now cached in ~/config/settings/Caya/Cache/$account/Rooms/,
with each file representing a seperate room. The filename is used as the
identifier, and these files now also serve as log files. The log
attribute name has also changed from "logs" to "Caya:logs".
When a protocol has succesfuly connected, all cached rooms are
automatically joined.
When no accounts are active, all items in the Menubar->Chat menu are
disabled, and some other menu items related to starting/managing chats
are disabled in other views.
One new message was added to the API― IM_PROTOCOL_READY, which tells
Caya that a given protocol has logged in and is ready to receive
messages (rather than just sending).
This is currently done in XMPP after the roster is loaded, which be a
process that stalls the protocol for a few seconds. IM_PROTOCOL_READY
should only be sent after those initial, potentially time-heavy
operations.
Accounts can now be temporarily disabled (in a Pidgin-like style)
through Preferences->Accounts. Work is still required to allow
enabling/re-enabling of accounts on-the-fly, and for keeping an
account's disabled state persistent.
The ConversationListView is now an BOutlineListView, and rooms are
added as subitems to the item of their associated account. Right now,
account items aren't selectable or useful.
Previously, all Conversations/Contacts/Users were stored in the Server,
each in their respective KeyMaps, identified solely by their
identifiers. This leads to the glaring problem of overlap― if the user
has multiple accounts, some users/rooms might be used or present in multiple
accounts at the same time.
Now, each accounts' Contacts, Conversations, and Users are stored in
its ProtocolLooper, making this overlap impossible. An oversight of only
allowing one user identifier to be stored (fMySelf) in Server was also fixed
this way.
This is the bulk of the work required for multi-account support― now,
the user can join the same XMPP room on two seperate accounts, and it
works perfectly.
A BAlert is used to inform the user of room invitations― InviteDialogue―
and to send their response directly to the protocol's looper.
Some new protocol messages were added (and older ones were moved around
to compenstate)― IM_ROOM_SEND_INVITE, IM_ROOM_INVITE_REFUSED,
IM_ROOM_INVITE_RECEIVED, IM_ROOM_INVITE_ACCEPT, and
IM_ROOM_INVITE_REFUSE.
Allows custom colors to be dictated to RunView directly from
CayaRenderView. Some colors that were reliant on hard-coded theme
have been replaced with system colors.
New API messages were added to distinguish between a user leaving of
their own volition and being kicked/banned.
Messages are now shown in the chat view when a user leaves or or
kicked/banned, etc.
Allow kicking/banning/muting/unmuting/deafening and undeafening through
the UserListView right-click menu (if permissions are sufficient).
Support for banning, kicking, and muting were added to the XMPP add-on―
deafening isn't supported, so is left out.
