It's a global action, and if we do that other applications won't be able to use
it. I experienced this with the system camera. We do, however, make sure to
enable it when we need to.
Note that enabling it doesn't mean we are *using* it. It just means we *can*,
and that we will get actual audio when we do.
Refactors the previous "[RN] Cache avatars and provide a default in
case load fails" for the purposes of simplification but also modifies
its functionality at the same time. For example:
- Always displays the default avatar immediately which may be seen if
the remote avatar needs to be downloaded.
- Does not use random colors.
- Uses a default avatar image which is not transparent and ugly but at
least it's the same image that's used on Web. I've started talks to
have images/avatar2.png replaced with a transparent and beautiful
so that will land later on and we'll see the automagic colors in all
their glory then.
Avatars are cached to the filesystem and loaded from there when requested again.
The cache is cleaned after a conference ends and on application startup
(defensive move).
In addition, implement a fully local avatar system, which is used as a fallback
when loading a remote avatar fails. It can also be forced using a prop.
The fully local avatars use a user icon as a mask and apply a background color
qhich is picked by hashing the URI passed to the avatar. If no URI is passed a
random color is chosen.
A grace period of 1 second is also implemented so a default local avatar will be
rendered if an Avatar component is mounted but has no URI. If a URI is specified
later on, it will be loaded and displayed. In case loading the remote avatar
fails, the locally generated one will be used.
- Create a notification component for displaying a toggle.
- Create an action for showing the component if allowed by
the local storage setting and for saving the setting to
local storage.
- Remove all notifications having a timeout by default so the
device error notification must be dismissed manually.
- Split the camera and mic error dialog into two separate
notifications.
* feat(presence): display status in thumbnail and large video
- Create a React Component for displaying presence. It currently
connects to the store for participant updates but in the future
should not be as smart once more reactification occurs.
- Modify filmstrip css so the presence status displays horizontal
center and below the avatar.
- Modify videolayout css so the presence status displays horizontal
centered and with a rounded background.
- Dispatch presence updates so the participant state can be update.
- Update message position on large video update to ensure message
positioning is correct.
* squash: do not show presence message if connection message is displayed
Hides the UI component showing dialout codes and uses the dial input without validating it.
Skips printing error when dial-in numbers is not configured.
- Swap the telephone input with FieldText.
- Swap the dropdown trigger input with FieldText for styling
consistency with the telephone input.
- Wrap the dropdown trigger so it can be modified with jitsi css.
- Use flexbox to have the trigger and input align horizontally
but have the input take up width if the trigger is not displayed.
* feat(notifications): implement a react/redux notification system
* squash into impl explicit timeout, style
* ref(notifications): convert toastr notifications to use react
* ref(toastr): remove library
* squash into conversion: pass timeout
* squash into clean remove from debian patch
Make toolbar's microphone button enabled whenever there are any
'audioinput' devices available and allow to add audio during
the conference even if microphone permissions were denied on startup.
In iOS this is automagically done in the view destructor, bunt we don't have
that luxury in Java we have to do it manually.
The new disponse() method MUST be called when the Activity holding the view is
going to be destroyed, typically in the onDestroy() handler.
Whatever I've tried so far ends up failing in really weird ways, so let's admit
defeat, for now. Destroy containers only on Android.
This shall be revisited when we update RN to version >= 0.43 and we have
"display: 'none'" available.
Web's ExternalAPI accepts an object with properties as one of its
constructor arguments and from which it generated a URL. Mobile's
JitsiMeetView.loadURLObject is supposed to accept pretty much the same
object.
Introduces loadURLObject in JitsiMeetView on Android and iOS which
accepts a Bundle and NSDictionary, respectively, similar in structure to
the JS object accepted by the constructor of Web's ExternalAPI. At this
time, only the property url of the bundle/dictionary is supported.
However, it allows the public API of loadURLObject to be consumed. The
property url will be made optional in the future and other properties
will be supported from which a URL will be constructed.
Initializing a new URL/NSURL instance is a chore especially when one
takes into account that the JavaScript side (1) is loading the URL
asynchronously and (2) is capable of parsing strings that may or may not
be represented as URL/NSURL.
The Android method loadURLString(String) may have been called
loadURL(String) to overload loadURL(URL) but I didn't want to do that
because:
1. It would not be compatible with existing source code such as
loadURL(null) which would have become ambiguous.
2. I wanted to achieve better convergence with the iOS API.
