Update the user model so it also sorts by power level and update how we initialize the model to improve performance.
The following is also changed:
- Store a single `UserListModel` in `RoomManager` and use it for everything, this means we don't create extra models (incluiding the long initialisation for each in big rooms)
- By using the single model once it has loaded the users of the new room opening and closing the draw now happens instantly (previously the model would have to be loaded every time the drawer was opened).
- To stop the initial loading and room change of Neochat slowing down (as the `UserListModel` would be loaded before the `TimelineView` is shown) the initialisation of the model is delayed until the `TimelineView` has loaded. This prioritises showing some messages in the timeline over populating the model so in large rooms the user list will initially be blank, but this keeps the initial load snappier.
Depends on https://github.com/quotient-im/libQuotient/pull/695
Currently basic just to show a working implementation using RoomMember. Currently only the room event and search models are moved over. Will change everything else over once the dependent pr is complete.
Move the various room models into RoomManager. This means the same room models are always used and is a base from which further logic can be moved from QML to cpp.
Fixes#645
- Active space handling is moved from QML to RoomManager
- Active tab in SpaceDrawer (space / no space / DM) is unified in a single variable
- RoomList & RoomPage loading is simplified: We're always pushing a RoomPage now; if there is no room, a placeholder is shown
- SpaceHomePage is moved into RoomPage; This replaces the entire push/replace room/spacehome logic
- If the current room is a space, the space home is shown, otherwise the timeline
- The concept of "previous room" is removed entirely. If we're leaving the active room, the placeholder room page is shown
- When clicking on a space in the list, the space room list is switched and the space home page is shown
In short, these changes should (after some initial regressions) lead to a less crashy NeoChat :)
At its best, this worked ok-ish, though it was always missing basic features.
It's also a massive memory leak and significantly complicates the codebase.
(Which is not yet cleaned up by this commit)
Currently, it is entirely broken and noone noticed or cared enough to report or fix that.
BUG: 455984
Make sure that the neochat can handle switching connection when the current one is logged out. This is mostly about using QPointer to handle use after free issues due to room objects being deleted.
This handles the following non-functioning cases from the space saving mr:
- Selecting home or friends
- Switching space that has the same room selected
For now everything should look identical. However this moves to using a model for the content of the message and is intended to lay the foundation for improved message content representation, e.g. splitting up a text message in multiple sections and using different delegates for things like code and quotes.
This function will automatically create a "neochatstarerc" for us, and
KConfig will decide the best place for us to place our state. It won't
always be in AppDataLocation.
Add a space homepage with the ability to both create new room and add existing rooms to the space. This uses a tree model for the space hierarchy and will go to any number of levels. The user should only see the add options if they have appropriate permissions.
This MR also combines the create space and room pages and adds a lot of optional functionality for managing space children.
Rework the file menu so that it no longer relies on having a reference to the media delegate to manage a download for either opening externally or copying to clipboard. This allows the menus to be moved out of the delegates and maximize components and have them accessed through RoomManager. This reduces duplication and reduces the number of components in an already heavy delegate.
Add a tab bar to the room drawer which includes a new media tab in addition to the room information tab. This mr completes the architecture for adding others easily later e.g. message highlights or threads.
To put this together I had to make sure things like the menus and the maximize delegate were available to both the room drawer and page so there is some rework there to put it all together.

This is the start of a significant refactoring of everything related to sending messages, which is roughly:
- the chatbox
- action handling
- message sending on the c++ side
- autocompletion of users/rooms/emojis/commands/things i forgot
Notable changes so far include:
- ChatBox is now a ColumnLayout. As part of this, i removed the height animations for now. <del>as far as i can tell, they were broken anyway.</del> I'll readd them later
- Actions were refactored to live outside of the message sending function and are now each an object; it's mostly a wrapper around a function that is executed when the action is invoked
- Everything that used to live in ChatBoxHelper is now in NeoChatRoom; that means that the exact input status (text, message being replied to, message being edited, attachment) is now saved between room switching).
- To edit/reply an event, set `NeoChatRoom::chatBox{edit,reply}Id` to the desired event id, `NeoChatRoom::chatBox{reply,edit}{User,Message}` will then be updated automatically
- Attachments behave equivalently with `NeoChatRoom::chatBoxAttachmentPath`
- Error message reporting from ActionsHandler has been fixed (same fix as in !517) and moved to NeoChatRoom
Broken at the moment:
- [x] Any kind of autocompletion
- [x] Mentions
- [x] Fancy effects
- [x] sed-style edits
- [x] last-user-message edits and replies
- [x] Some of the actions, probably
- [x] Replies from notifications
- [x] Lots of keyboard shortcuts
- [x] Custom emojis
- [x] ChatBox height animations
TODO:
- [x] User / room mentions based on QTextCursors instead of the hack we currently use
- [x] Refactor autocompletion stuff
- [x] ???
- [x] Profit
