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
Fix the reply an edit text being shown in all chat rooms when multiple windows are open. This is done by changing chatBoxHelper from a singleton to being instantiated for each instance of roompage.
BUG: 454963
- ChatBar: Contains the main TextArea and standard buttons.
- Usually visible, but can be disabled when necessary.
- AttachmentPane: Contains an image when attaching an image and also a filename with mimetype icon.
- Has a toolbar to cancel the attachment or edit it if it's an image.
- Shown when there is an attachment.
- ReplyPane: Shows who you are replying to and the content of their message.
- Also shows edits and has a button to cancel replies/edits
- Shown when replying or editing
- CompletionMenu
- Now a vertical list using a QQC2.Popup
- Either a Pane or a Menu/Popup
- EmojiPickerPane
