Multi is the default api for methods, it is not necessary to explicitly
decorate methods with it, adds clutter and most people use it because
they see that the rest of the code uses it.
Done with `find . -type f -name '*.py' | xargs sed -i '/@api.multi/d'`
This commit is a refactoring of im_status management.
This commit also add im_status in two places, near the author in a mail thread and on each suggestion when using mentions.
A service to manage im_status will have multiple benefits here:
-centralise information, avoid to call the server multiple time for the same im_status
-update all im_status at once and keep consistency in display.
With this commit, the im_status updates are now done by rpc call.
Updates where previously made with the bus but this has some drawback,
since the bus will only give the information 50 seconds after the beginning of
the request, in the worst case, we van wait 2*50 seconds to get an update.
More than that, the im_status where only updates for pinned dm_chat. Dm chat
are synchronized cross tabs, making the use of the bus possible for this purpose.
Since we will need to display im_status not linked to dm_chat, the list to update
will be different from tab to tab making the use of bus difficult for this purpose.
Technical notes:
-im_search has been moved from bus to mail addons since it concerns mail.channel
-Update of an im_status should be reflected everywhere in the page.
Since im_status is a rendered template used in multiple widget, we should add
the correct logic to all concerened widget. The current solution is simple:
use a jquery selector to find every place where im_status is rendered.
-we add a new im_status: im_partner. This will indicate that that
the partner has no user linked to him, making it possible to avoid to ask
for status updates for this partner.
-The update will only be done when the tab is focused. (and will be done
asap once the tab get focus back)
When you are connected as a portal user, you can access to the list of
company users when you try to create a channel of type "Direct Message".
This is caused by a SQL request that doesn't check the access rights of
the user before returning the list of users.
To fix this, we check that the user can create a mail channel, before
returning partners information.

Commit 5d1b323. re-enabled the user presence updates and notifications.
Unfortunately, it showed poor performance due to the high frequency of bus
notifications triggered on our instance (~600k users).
In this rev., we don't trigger notifications on presence changes anymore, but
we rather send the presence of users we have a DM open with, at the end of each
poll period. For performance reasons, we ensure not to do that more than once
every 30 seconds.
We also refined the detection of the 'away' status client side. 'Last presence'
timestamps are stored in the local storage, and the current inactivity period
is sent at each poll. Those presence timestamps now rely on browser activity
detection (click, keypress... events) rather than on the focus on Odoo tabs.
Finally, we removed the no more necessary cron introduced in 5d1b323.
This commit add instant messaging features in mail module to make it a real team collaboration tool. Lots of these new features will replace Timeleine view (which is not removed in this commit). Many files have been moved, split or created for a better structure.
- My Channels : A user can be member of channel (mail.channel). These are discussion group, but also an aggregate of notification. Setting a channel as document follower, it will receive all the message (of the chatter) in real time, as information stream.
- A new Inbox : this aims to replace the timeline view. The user will see its channels grouped by 'slot', and receive the message in real time. Jump to the form view, invite people, create private discussion group, talk directly to another employee, ... are the main features. Your message can still be starred. The 'Inbox' will only contain your needaction.
- Needaction concept : a needaction is a message calling you to do something. If you follow a document as a person, the posted message will be 'needaction' for you. It can also be a message where you are mention with a '@my_name' (this feature is not added in this commit).
- The chatter doesn't change so much. It still allow you to see the discussion about the document, to star some message, and treat your needaction.
- Chat : the only way to have a minified conversation is from the Inbox Client Action. It allow you to keep an eye on a channel when working on document.
- Compose Message : it is now common to the Inbox, and the chatter. It offers shortcode substitution, attachments management, and optional subtype.
- UI : the chat window has been clean, they have a new look now.
To do so,
- Chatter code have been completely rewrite, independently of timeline view
- Add 'bus' as mail dependency, to insure real time
- A mail.message is broadcasted on the bus channel (db, mail.channel, channel_id), and a channel header on (db, res.partner, partner_id)
- Extracting mail_thread mixin used for Chatter and ChatMailThread (Inbox client action). This uniformize the programming structure with the server side
- Clean CSS style and use LESS instead of CSS
- Define a new messafe format (message_format method in mail_message.py), compatible with fetching and broadcasting
- Apply guideline coding conventions
This commit also break the module im_livechat, since im_chat models don't exists anymore and will be fixed in the next commit.
Thanks to Thibault Delavallee (tde) for the long debates and precious advices, Richard Mathot (rim) for the support, Simon Lejeune (sle) for the client action layout, and the Usability Team (apr, lle, bst yti) for the long testing.
