Up until now we relied on implicit loading of middlewares and reducers, through
having imports in each feature's index.js.
This leads to many complex import cycles which result in (sometimes) hard to fix
bugs in addition to (often) breaking mobile because a web-only feature gets
imported on mobile too, thanks to the implicit loading.
This PR changes that to make the process explicit. Both middlewares and reducers
are imported in a single place, the app entrypoint. They have been divided into
3 categories: any, web and native, which represent each of the platforms
respectively.
Ideally no feature should have an index.js exporting actions, action types and
components, but that's a larger ordeal, so this is just the first step in
getting there. In order to both set example and avoid large cycles the app
feature has been refactored to not have an idex.js itself.
* ref: disable ICE restart by default
The reason for that it's currently causing issues with signaling when
Octo is enabled. Also when we do an "ICE restart"(which is not a real
ICE restart), the client maintains the TCC sequence number counter, but
the bridge resets it. The bridge sends media packets with TCC sequence
numbers starting from 0.
The 'enableIceRestart' config option can be used to force it, but it's
not recommended.
Move all polyfills to a standalone feature, which gets imported before anything
else in the mobile entrypoint. This guarantees that any further import sees the
polyfilled environment.
In
1ffd75c0a6
we switched to using the localStorage wrapper provided by js-utils, which
checks for window.localStorage's availability very early. Our polyfill must be
applied earlier that any such import.
Here we are importing it in the entrypoint, which means no code ran before this,
literally.
We are downloading code off the Internet and executing it on the user's device,
so run it sandboxed to avoid potential bad actors.
Since it's impossible to eval() safely in JS and React Native doesn't offer
something akin to Node's vm module, here we are rolling our own.
On Android it uses the Duktape JavaScript engine and on iOS the builtin
JavaScriptCore engine. The extra JS engine is *only* used for evaluating the
downloaded code and returning a JSON string which is then passed back to RN.
React Native doesn't define __filename nor __dirname so do it artisanally. In
addition, this helps with centralizing the configuration passed to loggers.
Using anything non-serializable for action types is discouraged:
https://redux.js.org/faq/actions#actions
In fact, this is the Flow definition for dispatching actions:
declare export type DispatchAPI<A> = (action: A) => A;
declare export type Dispatch<A: { type: $Subtype<string> }> = DispatchAPI<A>;
Note how the `type` field is defined as a subtype of string, which Symbol isn’t.
Instead of bundling it in lib-jitsi-meet, which unnecessarily increases
lib-jitsi-meet's bundle size, polyfill it here so it's available in the global
scope, just like the web does.
* feat: Displays the E2E RTT in the connection stats table.
* fix: Whitelists the ping config properties.
* ref: Addresses feedback.
* npm: Updates lib-jitsi-meet to e097a1189ed99838605d90b959e129155bc0e50a.
* ref: Moves the e2ertt and region to the existing stats object.
Unfortunately, as the Jitsi Meet development evolved the routing mechanism
became more complex and thre logic ended up spread across multiple parts of the
codebase, which made it hard to follow and extend.
This change aims to fix that by rewriting the routing logic and centralizing it
in (pretty much) a single place, with no implicit inter-dependencies.
In order to arrive there, however, some extra changes were needed, which were
not caught early enough and are thus part of this change:
- JitsiMeetJS initialization is now synchronous: there is nothing async about
it, and the only async requirement (Temasys support) was lifted. See [0].
- WebRTC support can be detected early: building on top of the above, WebRTC
support can now be detected immediately, so take advantage of this to simplify
how we handle unsupported browsers. See [0].
The new router takes decissions based on the Redux state at the time of
invocation. A route can be represented by either a component or a URl reference,
with the latter taking precedence. On mobile, obviously, there is no concept of
URL reference so routing is based solely on components.

* feat(recording): frontend logic can support live streaming and recording
Instead of either live streaming or recording, now both can live together. The
changes to facilitate such include the following:
- Killing the state storing in Recording.js. Instead state is stored in the lib
and updated in redux for labels to display the necessary state updates.
- Creating a new container, Labels, for recording labels. Previously labels were
manually created and positioned. The container can create a reasonable number
of labels and only the container itself needs to be positioned with CSS. The
VideoQualityLabel has been shoved into the container as well because it moves
along with the recording labels.
- The action for updating recording state has been modified to enable updating
an array of recording sessions to support having multiple sessions.
- Confirmation dialogs for stopping and starting a file recording session have
been created, as they previously were jquery modals opened by Recording.js.
- Toolbox.web displays live streaming and recording buttons based on
configuration instead of recording availability.
- VideoQualityLabel and RecordingLabel have been simplified to remove any
positioning logic, as the Labels container handles such.
- Previous recording state update logic has been moved into the RecordingLabel
component. Each RecordingLabel is in charge of displaying state for a
recording session. The display UX has been left alone.
- Sipgw availability is no longer broadcast so remove logic depending on its
state. Some moving around of code was necessary to get around linting errors
about the existing code being too deeply nested (even though I didn't touch
it).
* work around lib-jitsi-meet circular dependency issues
* refactor labels to use html base
* pass in translation keys to video quality label
* add video quality classnames for torture tests
* break up, rearrange recorder session update listener
* add comment about disabling startup resize animation
* rename session to sessionData
* chore(deps): update to latest lib for recording changes
In order to be able to add analytics to the deep-linking pages the
lib-jitsi-meet initialization has been moved so it happens earlier.
The introduced `initPromise` will eventually disappear, once conference is
migrated into React and / or support for Temasys is dropped. At that stage, it
can be turned into a sync function which all platforms share.
Adds Nat64InfoModule which resolves IPv6 addresses for IPv4 addresses
in IPv6 only network where jitsi-meet deployment does not provide any
IPv6 addresses as ICE candidates.
The onPresence parsing was refactored to remove use of jQuery.
This exposed three methods not available in react-native:
ParentNode.children, ChildNode.remove, and
document.querySelectorAll. The querySelectorAll change could
be swapped for the already polyfilled querySelector, but
children and remove had to be added. The polyfills are based
on those supplied by MDN web docs, but modified to pass jitsi
linting.
Moves the things around to be able to override the config with the URL
params specified in the hash part of the location URI to which the app
is navigating to.
Recent changes in lib-jitsi-meet probably led to (1) our
RTCPeerConnection customizations on react-native not being used which is
a problem because we need them for at least NAT64 on iOS in order to
pass the review in Apple's App Store and (2) unexpected exceptions
inside react-native-webrtc.
The Promise-based WebRTC API should be merged from react-native-webrtc's
upstream but I don't want to do it right now because last time we got
multiple bugs in addition.
