When right clicking on a participant in a chat there should be a context menu with what can be done "to" that user.

Off the top of my head "whois" and start a private message with are needed.  I don't think whois is implemented in Instantbird yet, however.

Maybe also a way to add the nick to the contact list if it isn't already there.
I'm not sure of what libpurple does exactly with IRC nicks in the buddy list to know if they are there. Maybe it periodically sends who commands to the server.

1) General remark: we're running into the protocol-specific actions/UI problem here.
On IRC the options should depend on the powers of the user, ie options like kicking, inviting, op/de-op .. should be offered if you have sufficient powers to use them.



2) I don't think the online status is checked at all for 'IRC buddies' on the buddy list.

Fixed the platform fields on this bug btw.

I was thinking about this yesterday while wondering how to implement this. Generally most protocols would behave the same, with IRC being an exception. That could (relatively) easily be solved by choosing one of two context menus when the conversation is built (note that I haven't fully looked at the implementation of the conversation yet).
I hadn't even thought of different "levels" of the user impacted this, but you're definitely correct. We could mark each menuitem with a "level" field that has "op" "half-op" "voice", etc. and on run time decide which to show, but are these even the same across servers or no? (I.e. can "half-op" on one server have powers to kick while on another it requires "op"?)

You're correct AFAIK.

We should probably think about making a full list of all commands that need to be implemented as well.

In other parts of libpurple/Instantbird we'll have enumerators of a particular interface and all those get added to the tooltip, for example.  Something similar could be done for the context menu I think.

This adds participant context menu entries to the participant list and to nicks in MUC messages. Protocol-specific actions are left for a followup as this patch is already long enough (but would be easy to add using something similar to the existing getActions() for messages).

The tag-contextmenu handling code is moved from blist.js to a module to allow it to be shared.

Maybe it's just too early, but it took me a few seconds to understand the meaning of this sentence. Maybe say something like "nicks of chat participants highlighted in messages." ? Not sure that's really better :-/.

>+# %S is the nick of the chat participant.

Should this say "Start private conversation with %S" or maybe just "Private Conversation with %S"?

>+contextmenu.nickShowLogs=Show logs for %S

Should we be explicit that it's the logs of messages exchanged privately with %S?

>+contextmenu.nickAddContact=Add %S to contacts...

Should we change this to "Follow %S" on Twitter?

I don't think you need the "instantbird/" part of this path.

I'm glad you reused the same context menu, rather than creating a new one :).

This change seems wrong. I don't think a module loaded in 2 windows should introduce a dependency on this having the same name accross both windows.

All this stuff really looks like it wants to go in the prototype, but let's keep that for another bug :-).

Isn't this bitrotted by the recent tabbrowser large patch?

Maybe it's fine for now if the context menu is only used by conversation.xml. I'm wondering if tabs with random content will want to use the same context menu for the generic items related to links and the clipboard.

Any reason for not having these 2 tests in the same if statement?

You are testing twice the value of this.onNick within 4 lines. Maybe you want the comment to say explicitly that onNick will now be false if there's no nick related action?

Maybe change this so that you only do
changeLabel("openconv", "OpenConv")?
(and if the menuitem ids were selected carefully, you could even use only one parameter, with a toLowerCase call for the other.)

>+    // Standard actions.

Maybe add a !! here?

These 3 variable names are hard to read (they don't make much sense).
For the second, "isNickWithLogs" could work. For the other 2 I'm currently out of idea.

Maybe call this "normalizeNick" ('normalizedName' is too close to the attribute we have in several interfaces, so I prefer not reusing the same name for a function).

This seems pretty unfortunate indeed. Let's discuss on IRC how we can improve this (possibly in a follow-up).


>+  nickOpenConv: function () {

>+  nickGetLogs: function () {

>+  nickShowLogs: function () {

What about: openConvWithNick, getNickLogs and showNickLogs?

This seems to be code duplication. Why do we need these 6 lines?

>+            (elem.className == "ib-nick" || elem.className == "ib-sender")) {

Should this use |classList.contains| instead of |className ==|?



>diff --git a/instantbird/modules/imTagMenu.jsm b/instantbird/modules/imTagMenu.jsm

I'm not sure the interface exposed by this module is the best we can do for reusability. It currently looks like there was some code you put in a module because you didn't want to duplicate it, but then added specific cases everywhere. Maybe we could also make this module useful for the addbuddy.xul dialog?

Some examples of what I have in mind:
- one function to create and insert the menu items. The function would take as parameter a callback (receiving the DOM element about to be inserted as parameter), called for each tag/node we insert. The callback could deal with making the item a checkbox.
- the addNewTag function would just return the new tag, not create a contact or add a tag to a buddy.

The use case specific stuff would be handled by each consummer of the module.

>+function TagMenu(aParent, aWindow, aIsNewContact=false) {

Not sure what coding style we used last time we used default parameter values, but didn't we put spaces around the "="?

>+  tagsPopupShowing: function () {

>+    if (!this.isNewContact) {
>+      var tags = this._getTarget().contact.getTags();
>+      var groupId = this._getTarget().group.groupId;

let target = this._getTarget();
Or maybe just set this.target in the TagMenu constructor and get rid of the _getTarget method, that may be even cleaner :-).

>+  addNewTag: function () {
>+    let bundle = this.document.getElementById("instantbirdBundle").stringBundle;
>+    let title = bundle.GetStringFromName("newTagPromptTitle");
>+    let message = bundle.GetStringFromName("newTagPromptMessage");

Seems better to use the XPCOM way instead of the XUL way in this case.

"Start conversation" is what we use in the blist, but I agree it would make sense to be more specific here.

I think it will be obvious as the entry will only appear when such private logs exist.

No, that would be a protocol-specific action (not part of this patch). Also following someone and having them as a contact are not necessarily the same thing, even once twitter DMs are possible.

Yup, I didn't like it either, but kept with the style of the file for this ;)

Actually no, but the variable name should change to reflect that.

If other panels start using the contentareacontextmenu, they will probably have to make other changes anyway.

They are not great, and only work in the context of the existing code (all the flags are is$MENUITEM)

It's normalizedName because it refers to precisely that attribute in the interfaces ;)

I'll make the change to future-proof this, but both classes only occur when IB code sets them on elements it makes itself.

I can't see a way of doing this which isn't just as ugly (e.g. one would have to either get the existing tags of the contact each time in the callback or add a lazy-getter type mechanism for it). Storing the target in the constructor isn't super pretty, but seems the most readable in this case. I separated out the part of the code which could be usefully and cleanly generalized (getSortedTags).

I forgot to add a question to comment #9: Wouldn't it be a good idea to make the tagMenu.getSortedTags() in this patch the default behaviour of Services.tags.getTags()? It seems silly to use the tagMenu just for this in addBuddy, and it seems the right place to put it.

Overall this seems pretty reasonable. r- is only because I think it's bitrotted, and I would like to have another quick look (and maybe try it) before it gets checked in :).

>+    let nickActions = this.getNickActions(isParticipantList);
>+    this.onNick = !nickActions.every(function (action) !action.isActive);

!foo.every(function (bar) !bar.stuff) sounds like too many negations.
Can't this be simplified with .some?

Also, .isActive confused me. Took me a while to figure out what it meant. What about just "visible"?

>+  getNormalizedName: function (aNick) {

This comment looks like it wants to contain a bug number ;).

Nit: you don't need the ().

>+      let domId = "context-nick-" + aId.toLowerCase();
>+      let stringId = "contextmenu.nick" + aId + mentionNick;

Maybe just do instead:
if (!aIsParticipantList)
  stringId += ".withNick";



>+function TagMenu(aParent = null, aWindow = null, aTarget = null) {

What's the use of the default values here? Does it make a difference if the value is set to null or undefined? Or is this meant as a way to show that all parameters are optional? (a comment may be better to say that).

When looking at the implementation, it's not really clear to me why aParent and aWindow are optional. And providing aTarget or not seems to produce a significantly different behavior, I think it would be nice to explain in a comment here what to expect :).

>+  getSortedTags: function () {

I agree with your suggestion of sorting by default the tags returned by the tags service. Not sure if the tags service should also create the default group if the list is empty or not though.

>+    let tags = Services.tags.getTags();
>+    if (!tags.length)

qheaden has just added a touch of bitrot to this ;).

Shouldn't this look like:

This is likely code that you just moved around though :).

This patch creates the default group, but this is consistent with qheaden's changes in bug 955543 (bio 2105). I don't see a problem with this as long as bug 955464 (bio 2027) gets fixed, which is desirable anyway.

This test doesn't work. this.getLogsForNick returns an enumerator, so you need to check the return value of hasMoreElements()

... because the indentation here is tabs. This patch has them converted as spaces.



Coding style nit:
I think our usual style is:
function name(
function(
(ie. the space is before the name, not after the 'function' keyword).
You have plenty of "function (" in this patch. In some cases it's just old code that's being moved around, so I guess I shouldn't flag it... but it in new code it would be nice if we could be consistent.
(Note: I wouldn't have bothered you with this if I didn't have the previous comments.)



I find the discoverability of the context menus on nicks inside the conversation very low. Here's a suggestion to improve it:

I changed it to 'Start a Private Conversation' to keep the analogy with the blist context menu, but if you think that's too long you can change it on checkin.

Thanks for catching this!

Hopefully most of these files are consistent now.

Sadly cursor: context-menu is not supported at all on Windows (and looks non-native and ugly on Linux, at least for me). I would have suggested cursor:default (which at least then varies the pointer from its shape over the message text) but that is what we get when hovering outside a message altogether, so I wasn't sure it was a net win. Discoverability may not be great, but I originally added it as my expectation was that it would be there anyway, and to provide for users that shared that expectation ;)

I also moved the Cu.import of the tagmenu in blist.js from the header to where the tagmenu is actually created, in a probably fairly pointless gesture at saving memory.

There's no way this can work, it's using this.onBuddy...

... which is only set here.

I'm fixing this at the checkin with a few other trivial changes.

Shouldn't this have been toLocaleLowerCase [1] to be on the safe side? I can file a follow-up bug if someone agrees.

It makes sense to fix this for consistency. (Afaik there are other places in the existing code where we use tolowercase instead of tolocalelowercase for performance reasons, but that doesn't apply here.)

Filed as bug 955618 (bio 2176).
Depends on: 955553

Use the normalize() method from bug 955553 (bio 2115) to replace the getNormalizedName placeholder.

I suspect you want conv.getNormalizedChatBuddyName in these 2 places.

And the getLogsForAccountAndName implementation likely wants to call account.normalize; rather than the caller.

getBuddyByNameAndProtocol would want too, but it doesn't have access to an account :-/.

That's what I wanted to double-check as well. But we do want normalize() here because we are trying to find out if there is a buddy associated to this name.

For the logs case I am not sure what the right thing to do is. The question is what the normalizedName will be *for a private conversation opened with a MUC chatbuddy*. (For IRC it makes no difference whether we use getNormalizedChatBuddyName or normalize in this case.)

Since we have misgivings about MUC usernames, we should not rely on normalize() giving the desired result here. So I'm keeping it outside logger.js.
