Story time. Currently the app can be started in 4 ways:
- just tapping on the icon
- via a deep link
- via a universal link
- via the phone's recent calls list
The last 3 options will make the app join the specified room upon launch. React
Native's Linking module implements the necessary bits to handle deep or
universal linking, but CallKit is out of its scope.
In order to blend any type of app startup mode, a new LaunchOptions module (iOS
only) exports a getInitialURL function, akin to the one in the Linking module,
but taking CallKit instents into consideration. This function is then used to
make app startup with a URL consistent across all different modes.
* chore: Updates lib-jitsi-meet to 5f8c0a662af086e7bcc19c010f1129afc9b6d650
* squash: revert changes to package-lock.json except for the lib-jitsi-meet version change.
* Handles connection failed event details (passing them to analytics).
* Fixing comments.
* Updates depending versions to be able to test.
* Fixing comments.
* Fixes wrong jsdoc.
We started on the way to responsive UI and its design with aspect ratio
and keeping the filmstrip on the short side of the app's visible
rectangle.
Shortly, we're going to introduce reduced UI for Picture-in-Picture. And
that's where we'll need another dimensions-based detector akin to the
aspect ratio detector.
While the AspectRatioDetector, the up-and-coming ReducedUIDetector, and
their base DimensionsDetector are definitely separate abstractions and
implementations not mixed for the purposes of easy extensibility and
maintenance, the three of them are our building blocks on top of which
we'll build our responsive UI.
Turns out this was a bit more involved than I originally thought due to an
interesting (corner) case: IFF the user was never asked about microphone
permissions and the call starts with audio muted, unmuting from the CallKit
interface won't work (iOS won't show the prompt, it fails immediately) and we
need to sync the mute state back.
If the view gets resized to a 1:1 aspect ratio, remember the previous mode to
avoid flickering when going back to a larger size or different aspect ratio.
If config.enableUserRolesBasedOnToken is true, only let moderators
and non-guests modify the password. Otherwise, only let moderators
edit the password.
Spot will need a way to submit call feedback using the iframe
api. For now expose a method on conference.js to submit that
feedback. Exposing on conference.js looks to be the existing
pattern... Also add an event to notify consumers of the iframe
api that feedback was submitted, as postMessage is async
and the notification can at least give some guarantee maybe.
I haven't updated documentation yet as I'm not confident
about this api.
Improve the experience when joining a room by removing the need to tap the join
button. The keyboard type has also been set to "go", which translated on the
builtin keyboard button label to be "go" (it's builtin, the operating system
translates it). This works on both Android and iOS.
Android uses a SurfaceView to render video, which is not quite a View, so the
fade-in animation (which varies the opacity) doesn't work.
Instead, add an opaque black view covering the video, which transitions to
transparent. This creates much smoother transitions on Android, while behaving
the same.
In addition, I removed the flip animation for local tracks, which is no longer
used, since the camera is switched without changing tracks.
