The hosted Loop client should check for the FxOS Loop client and allow the user to install it if it is not already installed in the device or to open it to handle the call if it is already installed.

Does anyone have a reference to technical details on how to detect from the web if we're on FFOS, and if the app is installed or not?
Flags: needinfo?(ferjmoreno)
In this case we would like to check if the App is installed or not in the device. For doing it, we can use the method 'checkInstalled' [1]. 

As window.navigator.mozApps is just for our Browser, you can filter using this in order to know if we are in a Mozilla Firefox, and then with the 'checkInstalled' we will know if Loop is installed.

Loop Desktop is not an App from the Marketplace, so there should be no collision (asking in Desktop if the Loop app is installed should be negative, as it's part of the browser, it's not an App with a Manifest file).

I hope it helps!

Note that in order to use .checkInstalled the standalone UI needs to have the same origin as the Loop app in FxOS. Otherwise, the check won't be allowed.

I thought the desire was to keep the name out of the url that we're sharing, which is why we're currently using https://call.services.mozilla.com/
Flags: needinfo?(standard8) → needinfo?(adam)
The URL will be a branding decision that may depend on the name, I just have not been confirmed yet.
https://call.services.mozilla.com seems really long to be used for a sharing URL.
We will have https://call.mozilla.com shortly. Is that short enough?
Arcadio confirmed that once they'll decide on the naming (hoping to be done this week) they'll also confirm the URL as the URL is part of the branding. This means the URL exposed to the end users for sharing URLs and the landing page on the URL clicker UI probably will change when the name is confirmed.
The question I'm needinfo'd for here is dependent on the outcome of the branding conversation. I'm going to lateral it over to Arcadio under the assumption that the final URL will be of the form https://<product-name>.mozilla.com

Hi Darrin -- Now that we have a name, we need UX (part of the Standalone UI) for this.  The mobile Loop app needs this to complete Bug 1010168, so it's a high priority.  In particular, I want the team to verify that we can do the work without any additional mods to FxOS itself.
Flags: needinfo?(dhenein)
Maria, Fernando -- Can I ask someone from your team to put up code in this bug that checks for the app being installed and then either prompts the user to install if it's not installed or opens the app if it is installed?   Your team is closer to that part of FxOS than my Loop Desktop team is at this point.  We can then take that code and incorporate it into the Standalone app along with the UI work that we need to do for Darrin's UX design. Does this make sense?

In particular, please let me know ASAP if this work requires any FxOS mods.  I don't believe this work will need FxOS mods, but until we get it working, we don't know for sure.  Thanks!

Sure, I'll take a look as soon as possible. I believe that as long as the standalone client has the same origin as the FxOS Loop client, we shouldn't need any platform change. But as you said, until it is working we won't know for sure :|.

One note regarding the UX design. We will be using Web Activities to open the FxOS Loop app if it is installed in the device, but Web Activities by design require user interaction to be triggered. That means that we cannot automatically go to the browser, load the standalone client, check that the Loop client is installed and open the Loop client to handle the call. We need an intermediate step where the user explicitly triggers the Loop client by clicking a button for example.

Only FFOS users will see this screen so I think it makes sense to match the mobile client UI rather than the link clicker UI guidelines (both should match whenever possible obviously but it feels this should be as close to the mobile app as possible). Therefore it makes sense for TEF to provide the UX also here?

We agree some UX work needs to be done to align experiences, but that is up to Darrin and Vicky. However, that should not stop us to land a basic implementation of this to test this flow end-to-end. Can we do the UX alignment as a follow-up?

Thanks, Darrin.  I believe with Darrin's 2 screens (attached), we have enough UX to unblock this bug and verify functionality.

Daniel, Fernando, Maria -- If anyone from your team wants to modify the standalone app based on Darrin's UX and submit it for review to my team, that's totally fine by me/us.

We talked about this on IRC, but I'll also reply here.

The reason is because we will be using mozApps.checkInstalled, but it only works with same origin requests [1]. We can set our own origin in the FxOS client, but it will be an app:// origin while the standalone UI is an https:// origin, and I have to check if that passes the cross origin check or not.

Thanks Darrin.

Do we want to allow the user to make the call within the Browser app? Or do we want to "force" him to install/use the FxOS Loop app? Maybe this is more a question for the product team.

In the last case, I think the UX could be simplified to a single button with two states:

* "Install Loop app": should take you to the Marketplace to install Loop. Once the app is installed reloading the standalone app should show the "Call" state.
* "Call": should open the Loop app and make the call.

Note that making the call within the Browser app may have unexpected results. We've been preparing the FxOS Loop client to handle situations like incoming cellular calls or alarms while the user is on a Loop call or routing the audio from the earpiece to the speaker and vice versa that the Browser app won't be able to handle. So I think it makes sense to forbid the call within the Browser.

In any case, since the critical issue right now is verifying the feasibility of this feature, I'd leave this bug to add only the basic pieces. We can update it with the final UX/UI in a follow-up.

We've just had the same discussion with Darrin, with the same outcome. The page should not allow the user to initiate a call but rather only download the application or launch it.

Yes, all the calls should be launched with the Loop Client (the browser will redirect to the client or the marketplace).

So this is the same need we had to show the loop icons in the contacts app. We solved this one by letting certified apps do "dry runs" of activity calls with the 'getFilterResults' option. Unfortunately we can't open that to web pages... And changing the same origin rules is not an option either unfortunately since we have no good way to verify origin ownership in general. I'm gonna think a bit more about that to see how we could solve this.
Flags: needinfo?(fabrice)
I've been thinking about a workaround for this issue. It's quite a terrible hack, but I think it might work, at least for now.

Loop is going to be installed from the Marketplace and the Marketplace can tell us via mozApps.getInstalled() which apps where installed from there and so in this case it can tell if Loop is installed in the device. So we would just need to load the Loop Marketplace page, let the Marketplace do the check and probably sniff the content of the install/launch button.

If this works, it means that anyone could see which apps you've installed from the Marketplace this way, which exposes the privacy issue that the cross origin restriction for mozApps.checkInstalled() tries to avoid. So I am restricting access to this bug and adding a few folks from the security and marketplace teams in CC.
Group: core-security
I think we can do slightly better:
Instead of loading the full Loop page from the marketplace and do ugly scrapping things, the marketplace could offer an embeddable iframe that would display just an install/launch button based on the manifest url passed as a parameter to the iframe source. Iguess the marketplace could protect itself by whitelisting the window.opener that is allowed to see which app is installed to limit security issues.

Yes :) It would be great if the Marketplace could provide such a thing. In this case, I don't think we need the buttons but a small postMessage based API wrapping mozApps.checkInstalled and mozApps.installPackage.

Actually, I just checked with Antonio and this doesn't seem to be possible. We cannot see the DOM tree of a web page loaded inside an iframe if its content origin is different from the embedder's origin. So we might depend entirely on the Marketplace exposing a dedicated postMessage based API as mentioned above.
Flags: needinfo?(clouserw)
Forget about the above solution. I found another way to detect that Loop is installed. But we still need some changes in the Marketplace for something else.

Having an unique "Call" button we can have the following flow:

1. FxOS Loop will implement a "loop-call" (or whatever) activity.

2. When the user clicks on a Loop url, the standalone Loop client will be loaded in the Browser and will show the UI with one "Call" button (even if we don't know that the FxOS Loop app is installed yet).

3. When the user clicks on the "Call" button, we will be triggering the "loop-call" activity, which will open the FxOS Loop client or fail with a "NO_PROVIDER" error.

3.1 If the app is not installed and we get the "NO_PROVIDER" error, we trigger a Marketplace activity [2] that will open the Marketplace app and will allow the user to install Loop.

Unfortunately, the Marketplace activity will not return to the standalone Loop client when the FxOS Loop app installation is completed. It will just show the "Launch" button, which will allow the user to launch the FxOS Loop app, but without any call information.

Ideally, what should happen is that the Marketplace exposes a new inline web activity that returns the control to the caller when the app installation request is completed. I filed bug 1040029 for this.

This way the standalone Loop client will get the control back and will be able to follow continue with the Loop call flow:

3.2. After the user installs the FxOS Loop app from the Marketplace, the Marketplace closes itself returning the control to the standalone Loop client which can trigger the "loop-call" activity again, with the URL token.

4. The FxOS Loop app opens and starts the call.

We discussed a bit more on irc, and decided to follow this plan:

1) Short term, do what Fernando proposes in comment 32.
2) As soon as possible, implement a postMessage based api to let the marketplace tell the hosted Loop site if the app is installed or not, and do the right thing afterward.

The solution 1) is still vulnerable to "activity hijacking" by any app that would want to redirect the user to eg. a competing solution - whether it's actually desirable or not is left as an exercise to the reader ;)

Thanks Wil. I filed bug 1040278 for this. I believe we can relay entirely on this postMessage based API if it allows to handle the entire check and install process from the 3rd party app and so we won't need bug 1040029. If we need to jump to the Marketplace app at some point via activities, we will need bug 1040029. But it seems that it is not the case having bug 1040278 done.

Attached patch v1 (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Since bug 1040278 is taking more than expected, I've created a fake marketplace with the same iframe-install.html that the real marketplace is hosting but without the whitelist limitation, so we can test this patch. The code for this fake marketplace is at https://github.com/ferjm/fake-firefox-marketplace and it is hosted at http://fake-market.herokuapp.com (and http://fake-market.herokuapp.com/iframe-install.html).

Dan, this patch checks if we are on a FxOS device and in that case tries to launch the call in the FxOS loop client if it is installed and available. It does it via WebActivities [1]. If the app is not installed, the standalone UI embeds the content of http://fake-market.herokuapp.com/iframe-install.html (or the market iframe specified via config) which contains a wrapper of the mozApps API. Via postMessage we ask this iframe to trigger the installation of the FxOS Loop client. Once this is completed, the control is returned to the standalone UI, that can continue the call process by trigger the WebActivity that is handled by the FxOS Loop client ("loop-call").

In this case, the app that is installed and triggered to handle the call is not the real FxOS Loop client cause we cannot install privileged apps from this fake marketplace. Instead I created a mock app that simply exposes the same web activity as the FxOS Loop client. This is also configurable.

I'd love to hear your feedback about this approach. If it is positive, I'll write the tests for it and ask for your review. I think we can make progress landing this patch if the review is positive even if bug 1040278 is not fixed yet as the market URL selection can be done via configuration later. At least we would unblock our QA team to test this feature.

Thanks.

Darrin, can you amend the UX so that a call button is not displayed?
https://people.mozilla.org/~dhenein/labs/loop-link-spec/#mobile-banner

As a FFOS browser user you should NOT be able to initiate a call from within the browser.
Flags: needinfo?(dhenein)
Actually, I believe there should be a call button in the standalone UI to initiate the call *within* the FxOS app. We use the standalone UI to show the details of the call. The user can the decide if she wants to initiate the call (after installing the FxOS app if it is not already there) by clicking in the standalone UI call button or not.

The button that is not needed is the "Install" button.
OK, makes sense - my bad :)

v1

So the standalone code has a big overhaul in progress that's about to land in bug 10000127, where a lot of the UI code you're modifying is becoming reactified.  In order to avoid a lot of merge pain, I'd strongly suggesting waiting until that lands (next day or two) before touching this more.

My suspicion is that initiateFxOSCall wants to really be in it's own React (sub)-view, perhaps called FxOSHiddenMarketplaceView.

I kinda suspect that initiateFxOSCall wants to be pushed down into a model, likely the conversation model, though I could imagine it also being a utility function or its own model.  But maybe I'm over-engineering things a bit.  Once the standalone code lands, I suspect you could pair with Niko or me to figure out a reasonable way forward, and I wouldn't expect it to be very hard, though the automated tests could be a little interesting.  :-)

I rebased the patch on top of the latest m-i and updated it with the React bits trying to follow your suggestions from comment 50.

Regarding the error scenarios, we should not allow the call within the browser (check comment 24), so I am just showing an error message explaining to the user the need to manually install the FxOS app from the Firefox Marketplace. Note that this should never happen anyway.

I still need to do some cleaning of the patch and add the tests, but I'd like to know if the overall approach and the React bits are on the right direction.

Thanks!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

I like that this factors apart the FxOS-specific code.  That said, having the main conversation form functionality itself be a mixin feels inside-out (and harder to reason about, because it moves a whole bunch of methods that are typically in a component elsewhere).  Since there's really only one method difference between the two shells for that mixin, one thing I could imagine would be to make that method (or an object containing it) be the thing that's passed into the ConversationFormView.  Without trying it, it's not obvious to me whether that's a good idea or not.  But in general, it feels like we want to a use a different mechanism (composition?) for this factoring...

I suspect it would be easier for us to discuss this using Hangouts so that we can both talk synchronously and point at code.  I'm happy to make some time for that if you'd like.

This doesn't feel like the sort of thing that wants to be state.  I.e. it's not going to vary during one invocation of the webapp, is it?

Attached patch v3 (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Dan, as I mentioned yesterday, this patch has a new approach where we use different conversation models depending on the platform. I added a specific model for FxOS that has a setupOutgoingCall function just like the conversation model for the rest of the platforms. This method is called within the handler for the click event on the "Call" button.

I also removed the polling within the hack that I mentioned yesterday to workaround the absence of iframe onload events in React cause the embedded Marketplace content is already sending a "loaded" message that let us know when to request the installation of the FxOS Loop client. We just need to start listening for messages coming from the iframe when we update its src.

Finally, I added some tests. Unfortunately they are not covering the whole activities + installation process as I can't really see an easy way to test that.

Thanks in advance for the review.

Standalone link clicker UI support for FxOS client, v4

Rebased against today's fx-team repo.  I haven't really gotten into the reveiew yet, as I had to spend a fair amount of time debugging and fixing a failing unit test.  In the future, it would be very helpful if you could ensure that the unit tests pass before requesting review.  <http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/loop/README.txt#16> has info on how to run these test quickly.

If I've misunderstood the code and these tests were passing before, and the failure was the result of bit-rot or merge problems, I apologize.  

In any case, we've got something that passes now, and I'll resume the review on Thursday (Pacific time).

Standalone link clicker UI support for FxOS client, v6

Review of attachment 8485158 [details] [diff] [review]:
-----------------------------------------------------------------

This is looking really good.  The structure of the code looks great, and does an excellent job of reflecting the React idiom.  There are some testing issues, mostly detailed in the review.  

One more general one that's not is that in general, we try to mostly write and structure our tests around units of code and their specific behaviors.  That said, I can see why a bunch of the FirefoxOS stuff requires common setup.  I suspect that in the future, the way to address this will be to factor our some utility functions, and possibly use the structures suggested at <https://github.com/visionmedia/mocha/wiki/Shared-Behaviours>.  That said, I don't think it makes sense to dig into this as part of this bug.

I don't have an FxOS device set up for easy testing of dev stuff just yet, but I don't want that to delay this review any further.  That said, the current version of the patch seems pass all unit tests and the end-to-end call test on desktop.

I'd like to take another look after the changes are addressed, so r- for now.

Thanks for both the hard work and your patience!

Could this eventListener be added to the iframe window object rather than main window object?

As written, it would appear that we'll be adding a new listener on every update.  If this is the right behavior, it would be helpful to add a comment explaining why this makes sense.

Also, don't we need to remove the listener somewhere to avoid a leak?

I suspect the bind is not necessary because React will take care of that for you.  If I'm correct, you'll see a warning to that effect in the FxOS console when this code gets executed.

I _think_ this is just a remnant of one of the merges, unless you added the getTargetPlatform call in here.  btnClassStartCall is no longer used, so we should get rid of this line, and if we need the target platform in the class here, it would be helpful to understand how that's used.

WebActivities are also exposed in WebRT apps on Firefox for Android.  It feels like these tests are really proxy tests for what we actually want to know, which might be "Does this machine support web activities _and_ have a loop-call activity registered with the system by someone other than us".  Would making the code check for that be possible/better?

In the interest of landing sooner, I could live with an XXX comment and a spinoff bug for handling that case.

No comma necessary after please.  

It's probably worth adding a screenshot or two and requesting ux-review from :darrin.

Also, instead of Firefox Hello, don't we want to pass in loop.config.fxosApp.name from JS?

We try to focus our tests around the APIs and their behaviors rather than the implementations, as this is most robust when refactoring time comes around.

Part of this is to say that I think the original test that you extended should just go away.  It's not testing anything that would be meaningful to an API client.

As far as testing fxos:app-needed, that should be unit-testable by triggering that event and then checking for the state change.

From a style standpoint, this wants to be two describe blocks:

The Marketplace iframe is doing a window.top.postMessage where if I am not wrong window.top is the embedder window and in this case the global window of the standalone UI.

Yes, we do. I'll remove it as soon as we get the install-package message response from the iframe.

I am afraid that such a check is not possible. We can check for web activities support but we cannot know without triggering the activity if there is any handler for it. There is a way to check that, but it is allowed only to certified apps (bug 1017420).

just tagged this bug with [loop-uplift], since this is targeted to uplift into Fx34 (so we can track the uplift bugs).  moved bugs off target milestone fx34 to fx35 as QA was validly asking if they should be looking for/testing a lot of bugs (some that were moved to [loop-uplift] and some postponed to Fx35 or later).

So, presumably, that's only available to certified apps because there are probably security/privacy fingerprinting issues with unprivileged apps knowing the list of things available.  However, I suspect it would be reasonsable to create a more restricted API that could be made available to privileged apps or even web apps.  Specifically, all it would need to know is "will this activity be handled, or will it fail?" without exactly what's available.  If you agree, could file a spin off bug to create this API for the future?  If you disagree, I'd be interested in understanding why.

I didn't really participate on the design of this API but I can also imagine that the reason for allowing it to certified apps only is because of security/privacy fingerprinting issues as you mentioned. Fabrice and/or Jonas would know in more detail.

This is how the screen looks like after the Loop app installation fails (which should be quite a rare case). As you can see we show the error message and the call button is disabled.
Attachment #8488049 - Flags: feedback?(dhenein)
I don't know how to create an API which can answer the question "will this activity be handled" without also enabling that API to be used to answer the question "has facebook been installed" or "has twitter been installed".

Given how flexible WebActivities filtering system is, we can count on each app which handles activities to have slightly different filters. And given any difference in filtering, it will always be possible to write an activity which can be handled by one but not the other. So if we have an API for "will this activity be handled" you can always provide an activity which checks tells the install state of two apps apart.

Sure
Unfortunately, due to the delay in reviewing (sorry!), there's been substantial bit-rot.  I've rebased this patch against today's fx-team (the integration branch where the front-end folks do most of our work).

The tests are passing again, with the exception of a couple of l10n tests, which I haven't yet had time to figure out how best to fix both the tests and code itself.  I've ported the tests and code around the construction of StartConversationView from the (now-obsolete) WebappRouter to the new WebappRoot.

Besides the l10n cleanup mentioned above (which you're more than welcome to poke at), it still needs to be actually tried on FxOS, as well as comment 83 addressed.  Feel free to dig into those, or, if you don't it pick it up again tomorrow morning and keep driving it forward.

The description here doesn't match what's being tested, which seems to be something like "should change internal state when fxos:app-needed is triggered on the conversation".  Reading http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/component-api.html#setstate also makes me suspect that this is racy.  Perhaps something along of firing the event, calling forceUpdate, and then checking the DOM Element to see if the iframe attributes are set correctly?
Thanks Dan, I've updated the tests with your latest comments.

I don't think the notifications code supports parameter passing yet, but I chatted with Niko, and that should be easy to fix.  Since all the tests are passing and _onSessionError doesn't currently try to pass a parameter, I assume we're not testing this.  So we'll want to test this code as well as to test/fix the notification code.

pendingCallTimeout is no longer a client-side thing, as of this morning, so we can get rid of that.  Moreover, though, I suspect we can get rid of the stub conversation entirely here, since we shouldn't be using the sharedModel.ConversationModel thing in this code at all.

This seems like an integration test, not a unit test.  I suspect this wants to be hoisted to the StartConversationView unit tests and changed to test something slightly different (ie that it does whatever is required for the FxConversationModel to make that call later).

Done.  When we land this, we'll need to notify ops of these changes too so that the production instances get this stuff as well. (Yes, this triple-sourcing of the same data is nuts, we need to fix it :-).

There are already a bunch of StartConversationView unit tests that verify that the model's setupOutgoingCall is called when the button is pressed under a variety of circumstances, so I think this test is probably a duplicate that we don't want to have to maintain, so I'm going remove it.

This has turned out to be true, so I've also gone and removed a bunch of the initial condition assertions that stubs haven't previously been called, and use of the sandbox takes care of this.

Yes, this was initially part of loop.config but was also removed because of my misunderstanding of your feedback at comment 57. I am adding it again as well.

An easy way to run all the loop tests except the functional test is, from the top of your source tree:

browser/components/loop/run-all-loop-test.sh

Please also be sure you're using build-jsx to build your JSX files, as it insists on the One True Version of react-tools that everyone on the team is using so that we don't get weird conflicts in the generated files.

This looks like it was probably changed for real live testing, and presumably wants to be reverted.

I couldn't reproduce these failures. But I added the fix anyway as it seemed to be harmless.

You're welcome -- I'm excited to see this land, and sorry it took so long!
Although this has in-testsuite coverage, I'd like to make sure we verify this before uplift. Tony can you please make sure this gets tested?

Flagging for verification prior to Aurora uplift as well. Tony, would it be possible for you to test this using the Try-server builds: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/try-builds/rjesup@wgate.com-f9eb2cbac352

Maire informed me that this is not testable until the standalone app is updated on the Loop server. As such I am untracking this for any verification. Please needinfo me once this becomes testable by QE.

Maire, please, let us know when this functionality is updated in the Production server so we can start the corresponding testing with the Loop mobile application. Thanks a lot!

This is being handled in bug 1077059 / bug 1077061. We currently need information as to what the new configuration values should be for staging/production before we can push this out.

Loop standalone UI should handoff to FxOS client, v12

I worked with Randell and Maire on uplifting a large number of Loop bugs at once. All of the bugs have been staged on Fig and tested by QE before uplift to Aurora. As well, all of the bugs are isolated to the Loop client. Randell handled the uplift with my approval. I am adding approval to the bug after the fact for bookkeeping.
