Deep/universal linking now utilizes loadURL (when possible). But loadURL
is imperative in the native source code while its JavaScript counterpart
i.e. React App Component prop url is declarative. So there's the
following bug: open a URL, leave the conference (by tapping the hangup
button, for example), and then opening the same URL actually leaves you
on the Welcome page (if enabled; otherwise, a black screen).
The implementation has a flow though: opening the same URL twice in a
row without an intervening leave will leave the first opening and join
the new opening. Which can be improved by not leaving and joining if the
conference is joined, joining, an not leaving. But that can be done
separately as an improvement independent of the current implementation
details.
As https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/typechecking-with-proptypes.html
says, React.PropTypes have moved into the npm package prop-types since
React v15.5. I've already failed to update certain devDependencies
because they mandate the use of prop-types so I'd rather we (gradually
at least) move to prop-types rather than face a lot of work later on.
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.
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.
React (pun intended) to prop changes, that is, load the new specified URL.
In addition, fix a hidden bug in loading the initial URL from the linking
module: we prefer a prop to the URL the app was launched with, in case somehow
both are specified. We (the Jitsi Meet app) are not going to run into this
corner case, but let's be defensive just in case.
The current implementation doesn't use the API and Transport modules. This is
due to the fact that they are too tied to APP at the moment, which is web only.
Once API is refactored and moved into the Redux store this will be adjusted,
though it's unlikely that the lowest level React Native module (ExternalAPI)
changes drastically.
This commit also introduces a stopgap limitation of only allowing a single
instance for JitsiMeetView objects on both Android and iOS. React Native doesn't
really play well with having multiple instances of the same modules on the same
bridge, since they behave a bit like singletons. Even if we were to use multiple
bridges, some features depend on system-level global state, such as the
AVAudioSession mode or Android's immersive mode. Further attempts will be made
at lifting this limitation in the future, though.
The counterpart of the external API in the Jitsi Meet Web app uses the
search URL param jwt to heuristically detect that the Web app is very
likely embedded (as an iframe) and, consequently, needs to forcefully
enable itself. It was looking at whether there was a JSON Web Token
(JWT) but that logic got broken when the JWT support was rewritten
because the check started happening before the search URL param jwt was
parsed.
There were getDomain, setDomain, SET_DOMAIN, setRoomURL, SET_ROOM_URL
which together were repeating one and the same information and in the
case of the 'room URL' abstraction was not 100% accurate because it
would exist even when there was no room. Replace them all with a
'location URL' abstraction which exists with or without a room.
Then the 'room URL' abstraction was not used in (mobile) feature
share-room. Use the 'location URL' there now.
Finally, removes source code duplication in supporting the Web
application context root.
* fix(react/participant): store display name in redux
* feat(remotecontrol): Add option to display the authorization dialog in meet
* feat(remotecontrol): Enable ESLint and Flow
On RN we don't use the global APP object, so don't save the store there unless
it's defined, which is the case in the current web version. Also, check for
undefined explicitly, since a "if (!APP)" check will throw a ReferenceError.
The mobile app remembers the domain which hosted the last conference. If
the user specified a full URL first and specified a room name only the
second time, it was not obvious that the second conference would be
hosted on the domain of the first conference.
The implementation varies across platforms, with the same goal: allow the app to
use the entire screen real state while in a conference.
On Android we use immersive mode, which will hide the status and navigation bars.
https://developer.android.com/training/system-ui/immersive.html
On iOS the status bar is hidden, with a slide effect.
The files react/index.native.js and react/index.web.js ended up having
very similar source code related to initializing the Redux store. Remove
the duplication.
Additionally, I always wanted the App React Component to be consumed
without the need to provide a Redux store to it.
A bug was discovered in d17cc9fa which would raise a failure to push
into the browser's history if a base href was defined. Fix the failure
by removing react-router. Anyway, the usage of react-router was
incorrect because the app must hit the server infrastructure when it
enters a room because the server will choose the very app version then.
