The commit message of "Associate remote participant w/ JitsiConference
(_JOINED)" explains the motivation for this commit.
Practically, _JOINED and _LEFT combined with "Remove remote participants
who are no longer of interest" should alleviate the problem with
multiplying remote participants to an acceptable level of annoyance.
Technically though, a remote participant cannot be identified by an ID
only. The ID is (somewhat) "unique" in the context of a single
JitsiConference instance. So in order to not have to scratch our heads
over an obscure corner, racing case, it's better to always identify
remote participants by the pair id-conference. Unfortunately, that's a
bit of a high order given the existing source code. So I've implemented
the cases which are the easiest so that new source code written with
participantUpdated is more likely to identify a remote participant with
the pair id-conference.
Additionally, the commit "Reduce direct read access to the
features/base/participants redux state" brings more control back to the
functions of the feature base/participants so that one day we can (if we
choose to) do something like, for example:
If getParticipants is called with a conference, it returns the
participants from features/base/participants who are associated with the
specified conference. If no conference is specified in the function
call, then default to the conference which is the primary focus of the
app at the time of the function call. Added to the above, this should
allow us to further reduce the cases in which we're identifying remote
participants by id only and get us even closer to a more "predictable"
behavior in corner, racing cases.
The plan set in motion here is to associate remote participants with the
JitsiConference instances that created them in order to be able to
remove remote participants when a JitsiConference is no longer the
primary focus of the jitsi-meet app. And that's supposed to alleviate a
problem with multiplying remote thumbnails.
Doing all of the above in a single commit is a bit of a high order. So
I'm splitting the whole into multiple successive commits for the
purposes of observability, comprehension. Each commit is supposed to be
safe even if subsequent commits are not accepted, are reverted,
whatever. Obviously, without the successive commits, a commit may be
"unused".
One of the important pieces of the multiplying remote thumbnails "fix"
offered is removing remote participants who are no longer of interest
i.e. PARTICIPANT_LEFT. But in order for _LEFT to be implemented, _JOINED
must be implemented first.
Because a conference can fail before or after it's joined it must be
"left" in order to release any allocated resources like peerconnections,
tracks and all the other things.
- add 10px of padding on the sizes of the toolbar
- make the button margin smaller (from 10 to 7)
- increate the secondary button factor to 85%, thus rising the maximum secondary
button size to 50 (from the previous 48)
Doing so in CONFERENCE_JOINED is too late because if we are moderators that
event will come first and we won't know what ID to match it with.
This is safe because our local ID is created early.
* 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
Contributing all buttons in one place goes against the designs that we
set out at the beginning of the project's rewrite and that multiple of
us have been following since then.
Currently the following are implemented:
- AudioMuteButton
- HangupButton
- VideoMuteButton
In order to implement these new buttons a new abstract class was introduced,
which abstracts the ToolboxItem into a button with enough hooks so a stateful
and a stateless version of it can be created.
This patch only adds the stateful implementation of the aforementioned buttons.
This abstraction represents an action which can go anywhere in a toolbox (be
that the main toolbar or the overflow menu) and it's platform independent.
It does not depend on Redux, thus making it stateless, which facilitates its use
in stateful button implementations as well as stateless ones.
