Group-based channels automatically add people belonging to user groups to the
channel. If a member leaves the channel he will be automatically added back
by the channel automatic subscription. This generates unnecessary changes and
messages in the channel.
We now prevent people from leaving group-based channels. All group members
have to be channel members. Unsubscribe buttons are therefore removed for
those channels.
This commit introduces generic activities to use in your addons. Activities are
actions user have to take on a document like making a phonecall or organizing
a meeting. Activities come with the mail module as they are integrated in the
Chatter but are not bundled with mail.thread.
New models are
* mail.activity.type: used to categorize activities. Each type is a different
kind of activity e.g. call, mail, meeting. An activity can be generic i.e.
available for all models using activities; or specific to a model in which
case res_model_id field should be used.
* mail.activity: an actual activity to perform. Activities are linked to
documents using res_id and res_model_id fields. Activities have a deadline
that can be used in kanban view to display a status. Once done activities
are unlinked and a message is posted. This message has a new activity_type_id
field that indicates the activity linked to the message.
This commit introduces a mail.activity mixin to use in various addons that
enables the activities feature. It works like the mail.thread mixin. It defines
a activity_ids one2many field toward activities using res_id and res_model_id.
Various related / computed fields are also added to have a global status of
activities on documents.
Activities come with a new JS widget for the form view. It is integrated in the
Chatter widget although it is a separate widget. It displays activities linked
to the current record and allow to schedule, edit and mark done activities.
Use widget="mail_activity" on activity_ids field in form view to use it.
There is also a kanban widget defined. It defines a small widget to integrate
in kanban vignettes. It allow to manage activities directly from the kanban
view. Use widget="kanban_activity" on activitiy_ids field in kanban view to
use it.
Next commits will aim at integrating activities inside main Odoo addons.
Thanks to R&D India for their work and testing on this task. Thanks to belgian
Usabiliteam for reviewing and testing it. Thanks to @jem-odoo for the final
review. May his soul lie in peace with the trumpets of paradise.
`customer_email_data` can be undefined.
It must therefore be checked before testing
its length
e.g. use the /helpdesk command with an anonymous visitor
of the livechat

When changing tracking mecanism in v9 'always' tracked fields lost their meaning.
They were managed like 'onchange' fields. This commit sets the old behavior back.
* 'onchange' fields are displayed in tracking every time they change
* 'always' fields are displayed in tracking every time they change or whenever
other tracking exist; those are used to display some contextual
information
Currently it is impossible in Discuss to know whether an email has been sent
to a customer and whether it failed or bounced. A notified partner has an
entry in the needaction m2m table. In this commit we decorate this table to
add fields about the email notification: is an email sent, did it failed, did
it bounce.
This information is kept only for customers. Internal users does not use this
information. Moreover their notification is deleted once the message is read
in the Chatter. This avoids having a notification table that grows quickly.
Chatter now holds a new icon for email details. It allows to know on a thread
status of emails sent to customers.
When tracking value is converted to be rendered as a message_post, we convert
the date/datetime with the current local from momentjs.

When switching between records, the displayed thread was still the one of the
previous records until the messages of the current record were loaded, which
could be confusing.
Moreover, when quickly browsing records using the pager, it could happen that
the resulting displayed thread wasn't the one of the displayed record (if
we visited a record with a long thread history, the RPC to load that history
might return after the one of the current record).
This commit aims to always synchronize the displayed thread with the current
record, by
- directly hide the previous thread when browsing records
- displaying a spinner after 1s to indicate that the thread is loading and
(possibly) not empty
- ensure to only render the thread of the last visited record
Use the mention mechanism of the composer to autocomplete on canned responses
(keyword :) with fuzzy search.
Directly perform the string replacement in the composer, instead of
server-side as before.
Add a menu item to access an editable list view to create and edit canned
responses.
Add two canned responses as demo data.
The BasicComposer widget is now used in chat windows, which enables the mention
feature. This is only for the backend, as for the livechat windows in the
frontend, the composer is still a simple input.
Classname 'o_chat_input' has been renamed into 'o_chat_composer' (the root
classname of the basic composer) for uniformity in the JS and LESS code of
chat windows.
The possibility to choose a subtype when logging a note was added with the
activities mechanism in CRM. However as the user should not use the chatter
but a dedicated wizard in order to do this, the dropdown is removed.
The internal subtype mechanism is kept. Only the possibility to log something
else than a note through the chatter UI has been removed.
the messages in a thread were previously rerendered every minutes to
update their timestamps. This commit only update the timestamps, not
all the message. This will allow us to keep expanded/folded state in
messages without collapsing them every minutes.
[IMP] mail: add read more/read less support client side
Messages are cleaned up and tagged server sides, with a attribute
data-o-mail-quote. This commit replace their content with a clickable
read more link, which toggle its display.
Before this rev., editing the subtypes of other followers was only possible if
the current user already opened a record of the same model of which he is
himself follower.
- extended_chat_window feature in its own files: as it is only available in the
backend, we don't want it in the frontend assets (which contain the 'basic'
chat_window)
- move followers feature in its own files
- creation of the 'mail.utils' module in utils.js
- creation of systray.less to define the style of the mail item and dropdown
in the navbar
- use of chat_manager's search_partner function in PartnerInviteDialog
- some code linting
When loading a form_view with the follower widgets, an RPC was performed to get
the followers info (name, email...), and if the user is one of the followers,
a second RPC was done to retrieve the subtypes.
This rev. batches those two RPCs. Also simplifies read_subscription_data() as
it is now always called with a follower_id.
A few code refactoring as well.
- swap reply-to and mark-as-unread buttons in threads
- remove blockquote from stripped html in channel previews
- readd padding to no-content message in threads, also to no match found
message
- add 1 to chat window z-index to prevent control panel buttons to show
through it
This bar was never displayed as the remote css was always empty.
When using the enterprise web client, the printing stylesheet show the
target of links (<a> tags) between parentheses, including the one from
the annoucement bar that should be kept hidden.
Thus also remove the 'Detach' button in Discuss's control panel as we can now
directly detach channels with the messaging menu.
Also removed unused handler on 'messages_read' since rev. 30c26d7.
A missing feature in discuss was the possibility to directly reply to a
message from a channel without opening the document. This commit add
that feature. Now, there is a small 'reply' icon in channels (including
inbox/starred) if the message comes from another document. This icon
opens an extended composer, which will post the message in the document
chatter.
Commit c04103f re-renders the thread every minute to update messages' date.
As a consequence, the expanded messages are lost (they are shortened again).
This rev. makes sure to keep those messages expanded.
Messages of type 'notification' and whose model is 'mail.channel' are
considered as 'system notifications'. This is the case of 'join/left' messages.
They aren't taken into account when computing unread messages anymore.
Also use the same heuristic to decide whether or not to display the message's
star, so from now on pure notifications (not system notifications), like status
change on a document, can be starred.
Clicking on that item redirects to the Inbox in Discuss.
The messaging menu's counter is now the number of conversations (public or
private channels, dm and livechat) in which there is at least one unread
message. Moreover, it is emphasized when one of those conversations is a chat.
Also make mass-mailing channels available through the messaging menu (for
consistency as its counter takes those channels into account) and allow to open
them in chat windows without input.
- don't print chat windows
- add missing 'width: 100%' on composer and Discuss sidebar inputs (required
for community edition)
- center the Discuss sidebar inputs
- Discuss sidebar items layout: one line, text ellipsis if name is too long
- hide chatter in 'create' mode (messages wrote in the chatter need a res_model
and a res_id, the latter is not yet existing if we are in 'create' mode)
- revert 2d2dacc: print chatter by default (classname 'hidden-print' can be
used for specific models for which we don't want the chatter to be printed)
- thread: ensure the displayed message's date is in the past
- re-render threads every minutes to update dates
- don't squash messages in mass mailing channels
- prevent concurrent opening of the chat window
- take into account the placeholder value of the livechat session record
- don't send welcome message if empty
- limit partner search to 10 in new message's chat window to prevent overflow
- prevent negative needaction counters (may occur in multi-tab, with
needactions received during an inactivity period)
- remove <pre> tag when computing messages' preview for the messaging dropdown
as they break the layout and add 'overflow: hidden' on o_mail_channel_preview
just in case
- rename 'New message' button in Inbox into 'Send mail' as it was confusing,
and adapt .pot file accordingly
- focus on composer when opening a chat window
- break lines in threads to avoid horizontal scrollbar (credit goes to qsm)
- correctly apply rules on <p> in threads

The message body must be inside a tag div because when the message was short
with a @author, there was no tag div around the body and it was displayed
inine.
