- When installing a package on Node v8 (or whatever npm version ships with it - v5), all packages not listed in `package.json` are removed. Since we explicitly added `--no-save`, installing a theme would delete the previous one. I am now checking that the file already exists or not. This means that it will still happen to people the next time they run `thelounge install`, because the previous install did not save into `package.json` :/
- Adding `--save` to make sure that the same, correct behavior is done on Node v6 as well (npm v3)
- Adding `--save-exact` for good measure.
Without this, going to `https://thelounge.example.com/index.html` would return the raw file. This now excludes it from the `public` folder so it cannot be rendered as is.
Renaming the file is for good measure, to indicate that this HTML file must be templated. Because it is a straight rename with no modification, rebasing PRs on it should not be to painful, as git re-applies changes on renamed files.
- Exit with code 1 when package was not installed
- Run a pre-step to check if package is installed before uninstalling. I have tried every possible way I could think of without that first `npm list` step based on output of `npm uninstall`, but different npm versions produce different outputs, so there is nothing reliable. This is a more robust way to do so anyway.
- Consolidate error handlers
It is on purpose that the message is the same than when a package was not installed. From a user standpoint, it only matters that this specific package was not installed.
- Hides progress bars that flash when installing/uninstalling as it does not bring real value here, at least for now
- Inform user if package being uninstalled was not actually installed
- Do not display npm outputs, mention which version was installed (this will probably need refining when installing packages with dependencies)
- There is no client caching of the changelog/version anymore. Instead, server returns the expiration date of its cache, and that is used by the client as well.
- There is now a "Check now" button on the client that appears when data is stale. This means that info is fetched only once and never refreshed (it was refreshed every hour before) unless the user explicitly wants to check latest version, which in turn is as stale as server info is, i.e. 15 minutes max.
- Button style is shared with the "Join a channel" feature, `.btn-small` (not `.btn-sm` to be explicit that this is not a Bootstrap thing).
- Version checker content is now centralized in the `version_checker` template, instead of being partially in the checker template, partially in the Help template, and partially in the code.
- A "Try again" button lets user attempt to fetch info instead of forcing them to reload the page.
- Use Flexbox to display a nicer version checker: icon is slightly bigger, and button is always aligned on the right.
- Changelog logic has been removed from `lounge.js` and moved into the component file.
- Changelog template is only passed what it needs instead of everything the server gives us.
- Public version now displays version checker, since server is caching things.
- Cleaner code overall.
- Keep consistent width between the Help page and Changelog (which is already different from other windows 😠)
- Add icons to the About links
- Make sure `li` elements (i.e. all the lists in changelogs) are consistent in size with rest of the client
- Display version and release notes link on the "About The Lounge" header line, smaller, pushed to the right
- Check new releases when opening the Help window in order to display it without having to open the release notes. Release notes are being fed to the Changelog page at that moment to avoid fetching twice.
- Re-check version/fetch release notes after 24h. Since The Lounge can now run 24/7, reconnect when losing the network, we have to assume an "always-on" usage.
- Change icon, animate background color when getting response from GitHub to avoid flashing.
- Combine click handlers with our wonderful window management. These were the same handler, even with similar checks (`target` exists, etc.), just in 2 different places. This is necessary for the next item.
- Combine "Open release notes" and "Go back to Help" button behaviors with window management handlers. The window management code is gross as ever, and is in desperate need of a refactor, but at least there is no duplicated code for the same behavior + history management. This fixes the "Next" history behavior (however reloading the app while viewing the notes does not load on the notes, but this is a bug for a different PR!).
- Added a rule in the history management thingy: if a link we want to add history handling to has an `id`, store that in the state
- Added a button to go back to the Help window
- Fixed links to releases
- Send user to the GitHub issues *list* instead of *new issue form* because if they do not have a GitHub account, they will be redirected to the login page, which is a rather unpleasant experience when you are already confused...
- Fixed a bug that would return data about a new release in `latest` even though it is already the `current`. It was showing the current version as "The Lounge v... is now available".
- Added https://user-images.githubusercontent.com to the CSP rule when prefetch storage is enabled, because that is where we have stored screenshots in the changelog so far. Meh (we can improve that later if we decide to have a dedicated place for screenshots).
- Fetch changelog info even in public mode because users in public mode can access the release notes. They do not see the result of the version checker however.
The biggest caveat is that JS code (such as functions) will not be interpreted as such, on purpose, for security precautions. If such thing is needed, then a configuration file must be used.
