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.
Refactors the previous "[RN] Cache avatars and provide a default in
case load fails" for the purposes of simplification but also modifies
its functionality at the same time. For example:
- Always displays the default avatar immediately which may be seen if
the remote avatar needs to be downloaded.
- Does not use random colors.
- Uses a default avatar image which is not transparent and ugly but at
least it's the same image that's used on Web. I've started talks to
have images/avatar2.png replaced with a transparent and beautiful
so that will land later on and we'll see the automagic colors in all
their glory then.
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.
When entering audio-only mode, VideoBridge is instructed to stop sending
remote videos. However, if the instruction fails because DataChannels do
not work, for example, then the app continues to display the remote
videos. Even though they're received in the case of such a failure, no
videos are to be displayed in audio-only mode.
Introduce certain React Components which may be used to write
cross-platform source code such as Audio like Web's audio, Container
like Web's div, Text like Web's p, etc.
They better represent if a participant has video available or not. There are
cases when even a participant in the last N set would not have video because it
disconnected momentarily, for example.
