TL;DR A bit of magic and ... Pouf ... all virtual events are now real records.
Purpose
=======
The current implementation of recurring events uses "virtual events" to represents all
events in the recurrence. Only one event is stored in the database. All other events are
dynamically built and sent to the web client which sees them as real records.
This implementation is old, difficult to read (6 years of changes and bug fixes) and
has become more and more difficult to maintain.
A fresh start would be welcome.
Specification
=============
When creating a recurring event, a `calendar.recurrence.rule` record should be created.
This model holds the rrule configuration and is responsible to manage events that result
from the rrule.
When a new recurrence is created, all resulting events are also created (stored in the
database). No more virtual events.
To avoid an explosion of events, a maximum of 720 events is created. With 720 events,
a daily recurrence lasts for 2 years and a weekly recurrence lasts for 15 years.
This strategy is used by Google Calendar and seems acceptable in most cases.
A cron job could eventually be introduced to generated more events as the end comes.
This allows to introduce an new rrule end type: 'Forever'. This is actually a shortcut
to create a recurrence running for 720 events.
Inspired by Google Calendar, new possibilities are introduced when modifying a recurring
event (e.g. change the name, add an attendee):
- Modify only this particular event (the event is still part of the recurrence)
- Modify this and following events (events are still in the same recurrence)
- Modify all events
In a similar way, when updating the rrule of an event (e.g. from every Monday to every
Tuesday), the user can choose to:
- Modify this and following events: the recurrence is split. The first part remains
unchanged but now ends when the second recurrence begins. The second parts is the
updated rrule.
- Modify only this particular event.
- Modify all events: Forbidden (same as Google Calendar)
Note: when events are "moved" because the rrule changed, the events are not actually
moved. They are unlinked and new events are created (See "Some design choices explained"
section).
Some design choices explained
=============================
Where to store the rrule?
-------------------------
Two options were considered.
1) Store the rrule on an event, each event of the recurrence having a Many2one
to the parent_id, aka the Master Event of the recurrence.
2) Store the rrule on another model: `calendar.recurrence.rule`. Each event in the
recurrence having a Many2one to the recurrence record.
Both options have pros & cons. But there is no clear winner.
However the actual business logic of handling the recurrence creation/update
would be the same.
Where the rrule configuration is stored is the only main difference between both options.
And this is probably the easiest part of implementing recurring events.
With that in mind, option 2) is chosen. It allows to clearly separate recurrence
logic from the events themselves. It is also the "correct" way of modeling data to avoid
many empty columns for most records.
Reusing events on rrule update
------------------------------
When an rrule is modified, events should also be updated.
In most cases, current events are unlinked and new events are created from scratch.
Only events exactly at the same time before and after the rrule update are kept.
Trying to reuse other events would require an obscure and arbitrary heuristic.
(Imagine an rrule every Monday that is changed to every Tuesday and every Friday.
What would you do?).
This implies that any change to a specific event (name change, attendee added, chatter
messages) is lost. This tradeoff seems acceptable as updating an rrule should not be
that frequent. Moreover, Google Calendar also works that way so why not Odoo?
Reusing events on events shifts
-------------------------------
On the calendar view, drag and drop an event to shift the entire recurrence.
One way to handle the recurrence shift is to apply the same timedelta to all events.
Now events are correctly positioned... except for events that were specifically
moved. Those outliers needs special handling.
This also introduces some behavior inconsistencies:
when an rrule is directly modified, events are not reused, but when the rrule is
modified by drag & dropping an event, events are reused. This option needs more code to
handle the shift and the behaviors are not consistent.
The chosen option is to find the rrule configuration from the dragged event (this is
easy) and update the recurrence with those new rrule values. This brings us back to
an rrule update (see above): code reusability yeah; one behavior to rule them all yeah.
One downside is that outliers are lost (but Google Calendar also works that way).

Now in a calendar view, if we use the color, attribute, it will use
the same color as Gantt views and the color picker widget.
The attribute color isn't more set as default in filter because it make,
in most situation, no sense to filter by color.
Now, we can add new filters in the right panel. To do that, we must
add the attribute "filter='1'" in the corresponding field line.
And if the filter has no direct link with the color of the model,
we can specify an attribute 'color' for this filter line block.
(for example color='color', and the color of the related model
will be used)

There are too many image sizes. Since they are stored resized this takes time to
generate when saving a new image, it's more rows on the attachment table, more
files on the disk, ...
64px is close enough to 128px that it can be removed without a big impact on
download size.
It will even reduce download and number of requests when both images are
displayed because now only one has to be downloaded and then benefit from cache.
The difference between the two is typically around 1.5kB which is negligible
these days, especially when the request overhead is around 0.5kB already, not
even taking into account other factors such as latency.
If a 64px image must absolutely be returned, it is still possible to pass the
size parameters to the image route. But the current guideline is to handle
resizing in the views when necessary.
Views
=====
- remove width and height attributes when existing CSS rules are overriding them
(eg. `.oe_kanban_avatar` in the right context)
- add CSS rules instead of width and height attributes when possible
- use `object-fit: cover;` where width and height are forced to avoid distortion
of non-square images
- for products, use `object-fit: contain;` instead, keep ratio but without crop
- add new CSS rules where the expected size was max 64px*64px before due to the
image size itself
- remove `img-fluid` where using size classes to avoid conflicting rules

An error occurs because a mandatory field is not set (`stop_date`).
It is possible to work around the issue by doing:
- Check 'All Day'
- Save
- Make it 'Recurrent'
However, the result should not depend on the order we perform the

For recurrent events, many fields are set to define the recurrency;
these fields are invisible unless (recurrency', '=', True).
However there are fields that depend on fields to define the recurrency,
which are required in some cases.
However in case where recurrency is later set to False, no onchange cleans up
the intermediary values (this is taken care of in the create),
but the 'required' on the non-relevant fields might prevent from saving.
We fix these cases by adding the recurrency in the list of requirements.

Summary
----------------------
The purpose of this commit is to improve the JS code of the `mail` module.
It applies the new coding guidelines and makes some changes on the design
of some modules, such as the old ChatManager module.
Here is a short summary of the changes that have been made:
1. New coding guidelines
- snake_case to camelCase
- prefix private attributes and methods with '_'
- jsdoc on most methods
- one class per module
2. Rename/Merge some classes
- 'chat manager' becomes 'mail manager' (internal) and 'mail service' (external)
- 'chat window manager' is now included in mail manager
- 'thread' widget now named 'thread widget'
3. New model abstraction for mail objects:
- modules 'mail.model.*'
- modeling:
0..1 0..1 * *
ThreadWindow <------> Thread <-------> Message
/ \
/ \
Thread With Cache Document Thread
/ | \
/ | \
Mailbox Channel Support Channel
|
|
DM
- Thread: the superclass of threads.
- ThreadWindow: the window component of a thread.
- Message: mail objects representing messages.
- Thread With Cache: threads that can be used with search view (Discuss app compatible).
- Document Thread: represents the thread part of a chatter.
- Mailbox: represents what was previously called 'static' channel, e.g. 'Inbox'.
- Channel: mail objects representing channels, including livechat.
- DM: special kind of Channel for 1:1 communication in the backend.
- Support Channel: special channel for im_support module.
This new modeling approach let us easily add features on all threads, such as the
possibility to put any thread in a small window.
----------------------
Known issues
----------------------
[Already Present in Master]
1. When the Discuss app is in the background with 'Inbox' as the selected
Thread, when clicking on a document thread preview in the messaging menu
of the systray, the rainbow man appears.
2. When a document with the chatter is in the background, when receiving an
inbox notification from this document thread, the document thread is
automatically marked as read, which removes the notification right away.
3. Sometimes, opening a DM window from the "blank" thread window does not work.
4. Reply-to feature on Inbox is not working: no message is sent in the document
thread.
5. On the first login of admin user with demo data, the inbox counter is wrong
(it displays 6, instead of 3).
Explanation after investigation:
> On page load, it fetches the correct number of Inbox messages (3),
but the server notifies of 3 needaction messages right away,
so it wrongly assumes these are new needaction messages.
> Not possible for web client to detect that these messages should not
increment the Inbox counter while keeping same API.
6. Notifications for new document thread messages only work when the user sets
'handle with Odoo' for the Notification Management in the preferences.
> due to notifications on the longpoll bus for document thread
messages that come from needaction notifications.
> requires server-side changes to send notification on the longpoll
bus to mentionned user.
[New]
7. When receiving a message on a unjoined channel, thread window flickers
('open' > 'close' > 'open')
Explanation after investigation:
> JS logic:
a) On auto-join, ask server to join the channel and get channel infos.
b) The info tells the channel is not detached, but JS code makes decision
to detach it, and tells server the channel is now detached.
c) From (a), server notifies on longpoll bus the state of channel, which is
not detached. The web client thinks that the window state of the channel
has been changed somewhere else, and the channel is now closed.
d) From (b), server notifies on longpoll bus the state of channel, which is
detached. The web client opens the thread window of this channel.
> The flicker didn't occur before refactoring because the web client was only
updating the model of channel when it receives the longpoll notification.
> Server behaviour on 1st longpoll notification is necessary for cross-tab
synchronization for channel window state.
> New design implies that model and view should be synchronized, hence the
issue now.
> Solution: remove server-side thread window synchronization and replace with
client-side synchronization.

Hacks
----------------------
The module `im_livechat` now uses mail objects that are compatible with Message
and Window objects:
Modeling for messages:
AbstractMessage
/ \
/ \
LivechatMessage Message
- AbstractMessage: message compatible with the thread widget.
- LivechatMessage: message used by im_livechat.
- Message: message used with the mail manager.
Modeling for thread windows:
AbstractThreadWindow
/ \
/ \
LivechatWindow ThreadWindow
- AbstractThreadWindow: behaviour share between all types of thread windows.
- LivechatWindow: window used by im_livechat.
- ThreadWindow: window used with mail_manager.
The reason for these hacks are twofold:
1. Use the thread widget in the frontend and livechat external lib bundles.
2. Do not have a dependency with the mail manager in the frontend and external
lib bundles.
