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.

The visibility of the toolbar can be toggled by interacting with the main screen.
This change allows the toolbar to be configured to be 'always visible'. This voids
the 'toggle' functionality.
As part of the work on fixing the problem with the multiplying
thumbnails, we've associated remote participant w/ JitsiConference.
However, there are periods of time when multiple JitsiConferences are in
the redux state (and that period is going to be shorted by
StateListenerRegistry). In order to give more control to the feature
base/participants, reduce the occurrences of direct access to the
features/base/participants redux state and utilize the feature's
existing read access functions. Which will allow us in the future to
enhance these functions to access participants which are relevant to the
current conference of interest to the user only.
- 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)
Since the main conference container is no longer "clickable" there must
be a way for clicking on the "large video". A clickable TestHint nested
in ParticipantView makes it easier for dealing with the fact that the
click handler is not always on the same component (required for the
pinch and zoom feature to work correctly).
Be explciit about the appearance we desire, since each mounted StaturBar
component will override the existing values. In this case, the problem was
caused because the default on iOS is dark, whereas it's light on Android.
Set it to light so it works consistently across both, which is what we want.

* docs(deeplinking): Add comment for the openWebApp action.
Adds TestConnectionInfo component which exposes some internal app state
to the jitsi-meet-torture through the UI accessibility layer. This
component will render only if config.testing.testMode is set to true.
TouchableWithoutFeedback and TouchableHighlight interfere with the
implementation of 'pinch to zoom' to come. We prepare for it by driving
the onClick/onPress handler(s) out of Conference, through LargeVideo and
ParticipantView into Video itself where the bulk of 'pinch to zoom' will
be implemented.
In preparation for "pinch to zoom" support in desktop streams on mobile, make
certain Views not intervene in touch event handling. While the modification is
necessary for "pinch to zoom" which is coming later, it really makes sense for
the modified Views to not be involved in touching because they're used to aid
layout and/or animations and are to behave to the user as if they're not there.
The difference from this change and 88325ae is there is no
attempt to do this in redux. This is the safer change in that
the cleanup logic is known only to trigger on hangup.
This reverts commit 88325aeef2.
Turns out a conference with a password triggers a failed conference
join. It's going to be tricky to decipher when to do actual
cleanup, and where to shove that code, so reverting is easier for
now.
Destroy local tracks and also destroy large video so the
user does not wonder why camera (and mic) are still enabled
even though hangup has been pressed.
On web Conference is pretty much all there is, but on mobile we have the welcome
page and the blank page. If we fail to load config.js, for example we will still
be in the welcome page *and* we want to show an error overlay.
With the introduction of wide and narrow layouts the margins of the
Filmstrip and the Toolbox became inconsistent. For example, the
Filmstrip's top in the wide layout was nearer to the top than the
secondary Toolbar.
Adds the ability to detect app area's aspect ratio on react-native
through the features/base/aspect-ratio.
Makes conference, filmstrip and toolbox react to the aspect ratio
changes and display filmstrip on the shorter side of the screen.

* feat(connection-indicator): implement automatic hiding on good connection (#2009)
* ref(connection-stats): use PropTypes package
* feat(connection-stats): display a summary of the connection quality
* feat(connection-indicator): show empty bars for interrupted connection
* feat(connection-indicator): change background color based on status
* feat(connection-indicator): implement automatic hiding on good connection
* fix(connection-indicator): explicitly set font size
Currently non-react code will set an icon size on ConnectionIndicator.
This doesn't work on initial call join in vertical filmstrip after
some changes to support hiding the indicator. The chosen fix is
passing in the icon size to mirror what would happe with full
filmstrip reactification.
* ref(connection-stats): rename statuses
* feat(connection-indicator): make hiding behavior configurable
The original implementation made the auto hiding of the indicator
configured in interfaceConfig.
* fix(connection-indicator): readd class expected by torture tests
* fix(connection-indicator): change connection quality display styling
Bold the connection summary in the stats popover so it stands out.
Change the summaries so there are only three--strong, nonoptimal,
poor.
* fix(connection-indicator): gray background on lost connection
* feat(icons): add new gsm bars icon
* feat(connection-indicator): use new 3-bar icon
* ref(icons): remove icon-connection and icon-connection-lost
Both have been replaced by icon-gsm-bars so they are not
being referenced anymore. Mobile looks to have connect-lost
as a separate icon in font-icons/jitsi.json.
* fix(defaultToolbarButtons): Fixes unresolved InfoDialogButton component problem
* [squash]: Makes invite button fit the container
* [squash]:Addressing invite truncate, remote menu position and comment

ESLint 4.8.0 discovers a lot of error related to formatting. While I
tried to fix as many of them as possible, a portion of them actually go
against our coding style. In such a case, I've disabled the indent rule
which effectively leaves it as it was before ESLint 4.8.0.
Additionally, remove jshint because it's becoming a nuisance with its
lack of understanding of ES2015+.
* Javadoc introduced @code as a replacement of <code> and <tt> which is
better aligned with other javadoc tags such as @link. Use it in the
Java source code. If we switch to Kotlin, then we'll definitely use
Markdown.
* There are more uses of @code in the JavaScript source code than <tt>
so use @code for the sake of consistency. Eventually, I'd rather we
switch to Markdown because it's easier on my eyes.
* Xcode is plain confused by @code and @link. The Internet says that
Xcode supports the backquote character to denote the beginning and end
of a string of characters which should be formatted for display as
code but it doesn't work for me. <tt> is not rendered at all. So use
the backquote which is rendered itself. Hopefully, if we switch to
Markdown, then it'll be common between JavaScript and Objective-C
source code.
When do we need tracks?
- Welcome page (only the video track)
- Conference (depends if starting with audio / video muted is requested)
When do we need to destroy the tracks?
- When we are not in a conference and there is no welcome page
In order to accommodate all the above use cases, a new component is introduced:
BlankWelcomePage. Its purpose is to take the place of the welcome page when it
is disabled. When this component is mounted local tracks are destroyed.
Analogously, a video track is created when the (real) welcome page is created,
and all the desired tracks are created then the Conference component is created.
What are desired tracks? These are the tracks we'd like to use for the
conference that is about to happen. By default both audio and video are desired.
It's possible, however, the user requested to start the call with no
video/audio, in which case it's muted in base/media and a track is not created.
The first time the app starts (with the welcome page) it will request permission
for video only, since there is no need for audio in the welcome page. Later,
when a conference is joined permission for audio will be requested when an audio
track is to be created. The audio track is not destroyed when the conference
ends. Yours truly thinks this is not needed since it's a stopped track which is
not using system resources.
* 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
* fix(filmstrip-only): vertically align center the toolbar
Use top 50% to position the toolbar's top at the vertical center
of the iframe. Then use transform 50% to move the toolbar itself
up 50% so its middle matches the middle of the iframe.
* squash: toolbox should center with filmstrip
We've had Filmstrip & LargeVideo React Components on mobile/React Native
from the start. We didn't have them on Web (because the rewrite in React
is not complete yet). However, that led to differences in the React
Component Conference on Web and mobile. In an effort to get closer to
merging the React Component Conference on Web and mobile, introduce the
React Components Filmstrip & LargeVideo on Web even if a minimal
render-only form at this time.
The video status labels, which include recording and hd status,
have been moved back to the top left while in vertical filmstrip
mode. The following had to be done:
- Remove styling to move the labels to the bottom left
- For VideoStatusLabel, move filmstrip remote video count, toggle
state, and 1:1 state into redux.
- Use middleware to emit out to the Recording label when the
filmstrip changes.
- Create an empty Filmstrip file for web and identify the existing
Filmstrip component as native.
The 1:1 call UI and vertical filmstrip act on remote videos
while leaving local video alone. To facilitate acting only on
remote videos, place remote videos into their own container element.
In its current implementation, the VideoStatusLabel shows HD based on peer
connection stats. These stats will be available on temasys browsers soon but
will remain unavailable on Firefox, which does not collect height/width stats.
To support VideoStatusLabel showing cross-browser, move the high-definition
detection out of stat sniffing and instead check the video element itself using
an interval in LargeVideoManager. (An interval was used because the temasys
video object does not support the onresize event.) Also, add a cleanup path from
conference.web to LargeVideoManager to remove the interval.
Move the HD label into the newly renamed VideoStatusLabel
component. That way it cannot be possible for the audio only
label and the HD label to display simultaneously.
Audio only mode can be used to save bandwidth. In this mode local video is muted
and last N is set to 0, thus disabling all remote video.
When this mode is enabled avatars are shown.
We seemed to be using the names "film strip" and "filmstrip" (and,
consequently, their source code-conscious forms such as film-strip,
FilmStrip, etc.) In order to comply with our coding style which requires
a consistent one name for a given abstraction, choose one name and
rename the uses of the other name.
Wikipedia has a definition of a "filmstrip", I couldn't find a "film
strip". I guess our abstraction can be seen as what's described there.
When I google "film strip", I get results about "filmstrip" at the top.
That's why I chose "filmstrip".
Certain uses of "film strip" such as interfaceConfig.filmStripOnly and
in the external API I left untouched in an attempt to preserve
compatibility.
I wasn't sure whether CSS was tangled in compatibility so I made a
choice and renamed there was well.
Looks like Android gets confused as to what surface to blit when we hide or
show toolbars. Setting a border on the container, seems to force the entire
area to blit properly.
Other attempted approaches, with no success:
- zIndex of -100
- width and height of 0
- opacity of 0 and setting 'disabled' on touch containers
This patch applies the workaround in the welcome page and conference containers.
Recently, we reimplemented the watermarks in React. Unfortunately, we
didn't take into account film strip-only mode.
Additionally, we duplicated watermark-related source code on the Welcome
and Conference pages.
