A good bit of CSS was required to keep the text color changing along
with the text it is nestled within.
Also: took this opportunity to increase the contrast of the number and
verified section right under the contact name in the group members view.
FREEBIE
Note that we're removing position: relative for the contact class, and
there might be some unexpected layout impacts. Thus far I haven't seen
any.

When we can't connect due to being unlinked, network status indicator
will show an appropriate informational message and a button to open the
installer window to relink.

This makes the "x" in the search bar always visible when there is
text in the search box, even if the mouse is not hovering, hopefully
making for a clearer UI around search and resolving issue #741
The implementation adds the "x.svg" as a background image to the search
box when it is classed with .active, in addition to the
-webkit-search-cancel-button, which is still there for the actual
functionality but only appears on mouse hover (one tiny snag is that
coloring appears slightly different on hover, at least on my screen -
don't know if this is a problem).
I accounted for both ltr and rtl text-direction by using
getComputedStyle(...).direction to detect from the input's dir="auto"
- if there's a more elegant way to do this, please suggest. An ideal
solution would use the :dir pseudo-class but it's not implemented
in Chrome yet - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:dir
For now, I added the direction-checking to inbox_view.js. I see that
input.search is also used in new_group_update_view.js and
recipient_input_view.js but neither of these views seem to be in use (?)
and they don't set the .active class anyway, so I ignored them.
Update: Amended version a few hours later - fixed and manually tested
color and spacing for iOS and Android Dark themes. Also made some new
SASS variables to make things DRYer and fixed my tab size.
Add a section under settings for performing a contact sync from your
mobile device. This just re-runs the same import operation that occurs
at install/link time.

Move the global header inside the left pane only, expand conversation
panels to full bleed, restyle conversation list items and selected state.
// FREEBIE
bug introduced in: 0569d4c
This z-index property was previously to ensure the avatar floated above message
bubbles, but the message bubbles always have enough left margin so this
property is not needed.
fixes#650
// FREEBIE
While typing a number, the new contact element is faded out. When the
number becomes valid it is opaque. If the element is clicked while
invalid, it displays 'Invalid number' and waits for the input to change
again. A new conversation is only opened if the number is valid.
// FREEBIE
Bubbles are limited to 30em to facilitate comfortable reading length.
The width of the message list is limited to aid visual threading
of the conversation. The overall layout is restricted to 1300px and
centered if the window is much wider.
The header avatar resizes responsively to save room when the window
gets narrow
// FREEBIE
This keeps it the same width as the conversation list items.
Also make those overflow-y: scroll so that they are consistent
width, whether or not they are currently overflowing.
// FREEBIE
Lighten last-message color for both read/unread states.
Keep bold font weight on last-message for unread state.
Bring timestamp inward a bit
// FREEBIE
Styled the conversation list items so that:
- Timestamp is on the same line as the name
- The message text on an unread conversation is ligher than the rest of
the text
Resolves: #379
Using the search field produces a filtered view of all contacts and
groups containing the input. To make this fast and scalable, add an
index on a 'tokens' array containing words from the conversation name
and different forms of phone number.
Closes#365
// FREEBIE
Makes the groupupdate and recipient input fields stick to the top,
restyles the typeahead as a floating dropdown list of suggestions
rather than a full width component, fixes group avatar thumbnail
rendering.
// FREEBIE
Used by member list view. Refactored some templates for shared markup.
Fixes strange behavior where members in the list were hoverable and
selectable.
// FREEBIE
Establishes basic functionality for viewing conversations in two column
mode, including message area and message list resizing, and maintaining
scroll position.
Various subviews need to be retooled but are more or less still
functional, i.e., new message, message detail, key verification, etc...
As a chrome packaged app, we have to keep at least one window open in
order to maintain our websocket connection in the background page.
This change replaces the system window frame with custom buttons in the
inbox header, such that the 'close' button merely hides the window
rather than unloading it.
Fixes#237
FREEBIE
This reverts commit 31e7d285e3.
This seemed like a nice feature, but the popup bubble isn't very
conducive to nontrivial user inputs, e.g. file inputs.
Fixes#211
Rather than opening the inbox in its own window, let it appear as a
browser action popup by default, but allow promotion to its own window
if requested.
Update unreadCounts per-conversation on incoming messages. Render unread
conversations with font-weigh: bold in the inbox view.
To ensure that the inbox and conversation views remain in sync, the
background page now ensures that the same models objects are used for
both views.
Closes#173
Previously, in the event of a failed websocket auth, we would attempt to
reconnect once a second ad infinitum. This changeset ensures that we
only reconnect automatically if the socket closed 'normally' as
indicated by the code on the socket's CloseEvent. Otherwise, show a
'Websocket closed' error on the inbox view.
Ideally we would show a more contextual error (ie, 'Unauthorized'), but
unfortunately the actual server response code is not available to our
code. It can be observed in the console output from the background page,
but programmatically, we only receive the WebSocket CloseEvent codes
listed here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CloseEvent#Status_codes
The websocket error message is displayed by a normally-hidden but ever
present socket status element. Clicking this element will immediately
refresh the background page, which will try again to open the websocket
connection.
Simplifies the grunt watch task for sass. Renames sass partials with
leading underscores. Flattens stylesheet directory. The only remaining
raw css file is options.css.
Move globally-relevant styles to _global. Shrink overall font size.
