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.

When replace track is called in JitsiConference, there is no
guarantee a videoType update will come in presence before
the track added event. This can lead to the situation in
LargeVideoManager where an update is called with a track
with an undefined videoType.
- Instead of having 4 listeners for local connection status
updates and 1 for remote, remove two of the redundant listeners.
- Instead of calling into 4 separate VideoLayout methods to update a
participant's connection status, expose one handler.
* feat(settings): setting dialog
- Move device selection, profile edit, language select, moderator
options, and server auth into one modal with tabs.
- Remove side panel profile and settings and logic used to update
them.
- Pipe server auth status into redux to display in the settings
dialog.
- Change filmstrip only device selection popup to use the new
stateless settings dialog component.
* squash: do not show profile tab if not guest
* squash: profile button not clickable if no profile to show
* squash: nits
* ref: Settings dialog.
* ref(toolbar): show recording features based on explicit configs
* squash: bring back button configs, use final config names
* squash: update interfaceConfig comment, remove unused config whitelist
* squash: change order of button enabled checks to reduce diff
* squash: fileRecording -> fileRecordings
Instead of keeping dominant speaker locally, get it from redux and be
updated when the dominant speaker changes. This is in an attempt to mimic
the video layout being reactified and connected to redux.
With so many abstractions called conference, I'm not surprised I made a
mistake and my reviewer didn't catch it.
As we are transitioning from remote participants identified by ID alone
to an ID-conference pair, the subsequent commits "Protect against late
PARTICIPANT_JOINED" and "Refine PARTICIPANT_LEFT for ID collisions"
caught the error.
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.
* 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
Hristo Terezov, Chris Cordle, and I/Lyubomir Marinov agreed that we'd
try to use "invite" & "invitee(s)" in Web/React's iframe API,
mobile/react-native's SDK invite API, and internally for the purposes of
consistency, ease of understanding, etc.
To reduce the amount of motion that has to be blurred, use a canvas
to essentially set the FPS of the video background. This canvas
component is behind a temporary feature flag, as well as being able
to disable the blur, so it can be played around with on deployed
environments.
* Adds in memory log storage, to be used while testing.
Enabling it only when config.debug is set, a configuration provided by jitsi-meet-torture.
* Moves to using config.testing.testMode property for logs storage.
* Fixes comments.
* feat(recording): show the YouTube live stream URL
- From the start live stream dialog, push up the broadcast ID
of the chosen broadcast. It is assumed the ID can be used to
create the YouTube link.
- Listen for lib-jitsi-meet to emit updates of the known live
stream URL, shove it into redux, and have InfoDialog display
it.
* ref(info): pass in dial in and live stream url
Passing these values in should trigger AtlasKit InlineDialog
to re-render and reposition itself.
* ref(info): use conference existence as trigger for autoshowing dialog
* feat(info): add live stream link to invite copy
* Revert "ref(info): use conference existence as trigger for autoshowing dialog"
This reverts commit 1072102267.
* hidden -> url
* _onClickHiddenURL -> _onClickURLText
* fix(keyboard-shortcuts): process Unidentified keys
When processing keyboard events for keyboard shortcuts,
if the value of an event's "key" attribute is "Unidentified",
the event should be further processed instead of the "key"
being returned to be mapped to a registered keyboard shortcut.
This occurs on edge, where question mark has the key
"Unidentified" but has the proper keyCode of 191.
* squash: add comment
On hangup while audio only, audio only is set to false on
conference leave to reset redux state on mobile. Large video will
update itself on conference leave, but large video has been cleaned
up by that time so trying to directly access the user ID on large
video will fail. Be defensive about this check, because its
callers are already defensive about its return value.
The feature was not ported to the new toolbar. Arguable these
can all be moved into notification but for now simply the
logic will be removed and worked on again as demand arised.
