To create encrypted account with account manager, call
dc_accounts_add_closed_account(). Open this account with
dc_context_open() using the passphrase you want to use for encryption.
When application is loaded next time and account manager is created,
it will open all accounts that have no passphrase set. For encrypted
accounts dc_context_is_open() will return 0. To open them, call
dc_context_open() with the correct passphrase. After opening, call
dc_context_start_io() on this account or just dc_accounts_start_io()
to start all accounts that are not started yet.
Support for legacy SQLite-based backup format is removed in this
commit.
Also resultified `get_watched_folders`.
Python test `test_moved_markseen` is modified to test using incoming
message instead of BCC-self message, because BCC-self message is
detected immediately in the Inbox.
* we no longer set a draft on group creation
* remove probably outdated comment
the comment was added at
https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core/pull/457
where draft revamping was done half only
and was probably forgotten to being removed later.
at least, i cannot make any sense out of the comment.
ASCII armored keys can be easily generated with `sq key generate` and
used to encrypt and decrypt test messages with `sq` and `gpg` without
converting them to binary using `base64 -d` first.
* generate qr code svg prototype
* qr code for groups
fix formatting
* - letter avatar in qrcode
- escape xml in userinput (display/groupname)
- fix "Me" display name
- merge import declarations
* remove dot at the end of VerifyContactQRDescription
* if addr == displayname, show only one of them
Especially useful for yggmail accounts without usernames,
because the text would overflow otherwise.
* use real clipPath for rounded avatar
* - center avatar text better (dominant-baseline)
- add "sans-serif" to font fallback for text if arial is missing
* make corner always blue
* add [logo + "get.delta.chat"] footer to qrcode
* Update deltachat-ffi/deltachat.h

* Apply suggestions from code review
Co-authored-by: bjoern <r10s@b44t.com>
* new card design
- add stockstrings
- update changelog
* make qrcode pixels also #f2f2f2 instead of full white
* rename VERIFY_CONTACT_QR_DESC to SETUP_CONTACT
make footer text a tiny bit darker upon r10s's request
* avoid using which is a doxygen command
* point out that one will join a group (this is still shorted and was also suggested in recent chats)
* add option to generate qr-code-svg to repl tool
* use same font-family in text and footer
* thinner card border
* remove superfluous <tspan> from footer to make color tweaking easier
* move font-weight to style, ios renderer does not pick it up from attribute; remove default font attributes not used consequently
* make get.delta.chat more visible
* align properly using dominant-baseline=central and alignment-baseline=middle, this makes things nice on all systems but android (before, ios was wrong and all others not 100% aligned as font metrics are ignored) (android needs a subsequent improvement)

It was there since the C core, labeled with "/* last_seen is for
future use */" but never actually used. The comment was lost during
the translation from C to Rust.
* refactor: cleanup send_handshake_msg()
- rename to send_alice_handshake_msg() as used by Alice only
- remove dead code from Bob
(Bob's code is at BobState::send_handshake_message() since some time)
- take a contact_id and not a chat_id;
this makes things less confusing when
info-messages are put to the final group chat
* always directly return chat-id from dc_join_securejoin()
* take care not to create a group twice
* adapt documentation
* add info-msg on group invites; add inviter directly after creation
* document existing 'joinqr' command in repl tool
* do not create empty one-to-one chats for group-joins
* refactor: cleanup fingerprint_equals_sender()
- the function takes a contact_id directly now.
before it consumes the first contact of a one-to-one chat -
which may be easily confused with the group-chat in creation.
moreover, the conversion contact_id -> chat_id -> contact_id
is unneeded overhead.
* show info-messages in destination chat for alice
* fingerprint_equals_sender() returns Err on database failure
* tweak documentation
* clarify what an 'unfinished tasks' task is.
* add regression test for create_for_contact_with_blocked()
* rename Blocked::Manually to better fitting Blocked::Yes
* tweak test_secure_join() and make sure, Alice and Bob have only on chat after a group-join
* add basic multi-device-sync functions
* generate json
* add context.parse_sync_items()
* add context.execute_sync_items()
* piggyback sync-commands message, add body for human-readable part
* avoid double json renderings
* mimeparser parses incoming .json sync-files
* do not piggyback sync-files
* execute sync items
* return status of send_sync_msg()
* send sync messages as multipart/report
* add a per-item-timestamp and also allow adding other per-item-fields in the future
* if the self-chat does not exist, create it blocked/hidden
* create tokens closer to real qr-code needs
* respect bcc_self setting, add test for that
* sync qr code tokens after promoting groups
* send sync-messages only if an experimental switch is set
* trigger send_sync_msg() after sending messages and after creating/redraw/revive qr-code
* add DC_STR_* constants to deltachat.h
* adapt to refactored qr module as of #2729
* tweak test
* use SendSyncMsgs config name instead of SendExperimentalSyncMsgs - we can remove or rename the config nevertheless, but have the option to keep it without renaming
* tweak docs
* remove currently unused effective timestamp calculation
* clarify when send_sync_msg() is called
* make sure, sync-messages are encrypted and are sent by SELF
* tweak docs, fix typos
* Add DC_EVENT_SELFAVATAR_CHANGED
* Add test.
Unfortunately I can't easily also test that the avatar is not copied
from unencrypted messages:
In the second encrypted message, the avatar would not be sent again
then, because we only send avatars once a day or so.

* add Chattype::Broadcast and create_broadcast_list()
* do not disclose recipients for broadcasts
* allow sending/add-/remove-member for broadcast
* set broadcast subject same as for one-to-one chats
* broadcast-recipient-list does not include SELF
* use special icon for broadcast groups
* generate initial broadcast names
* make clippy happy
* send BCC message unencrypted to avoid unexpected disclosing; encryption is opportunistic anyway. if we have 'protected chats' at some point, we can think that over.
* reword 'To:'-group
* simplify can-send-check
* add broadcast tests
* tweak comments
* Update deltachat-ffi/deltachat.h

* add missing stock strings for connectivity and quota
* reword quota error
* use 'Incoming/Outgoing Messages' instead of 'Inbox/Outbox'
* just say 'Not supported by your provider.' if quota cannot be read.
- the context is already given by the headline
'Storage on domain.org'
- the string is short and does not disturb much
(it is a very common error)
- the string does not mention 'quota' as such,
which will be hard to translate ('Kontingentsinformationen') -
even if ppl as we know about the Quota extensions an such things.
there was also the idea to hide the whole section,
however, that is confusing in a multi-device-usage
when things are sometimes shown and sometimes not.
before, MsgsChanged(chat_id, new_msg_id) was emitted,
but that does not cover the deleted message.
in theory, we could emit both,
however, that would just be a waste of refresh in uis.
also before, events were used this way,
however, also the documentations are updated to
reflect reality better.
* draft a download-api
* basic implementation
* allow partial downloads for protected chats
* use a separate column for download_state
* force a minimal timeout for delete_server_after in combination with partial messages
* add a warning if a possible download may expire by delete_server_after
* test load_imap_deletion_msgid()
* add a test for a partial download
* improve documentation and visibility
* let get_download_limit() return Result<Option>
* rusty getters
* apply MIN_DELETE_SERVER_AFTER to shown availability time
* move stub-creation to download.rs, use stock-strings, nicer logging
* make clippy happy (cargo clippy --tests)
* refine tests and comments
* fix typo
* remove superfluous closure in ffi
* respect partial_download for immediately scheduled DeleteMsgOnImap jobs
* resultify update_recent_quota()
* add a device-message if quota exceeds QUOTA_WARN_THRESHOLD_PERCENTAGE
* check if a quota warning should be added during housekeeping, this is at least once a day
* dc_get_config("quota_exceeding") is useful for bots
* make clippy happy
* reword QuotaExceedingMsgBody message
* avoid lots of warnings if quota jitters around the warning threshold
* allow clippy::assertions_on_constants
these constants depend on each other, it makes sense to check that they are not changed in an incompatible way
This adds following settings:
- Socks5Enabled
- Socks5Host
- Socks5Port
- Socks5User
- Socks5Password
Currently http requests and dns requests are not getting executed as they currently can't get tunneled through socks5 proxy. Therefore gmail with oauth2 wont work through tor.
- Use the same limit for info: full text can be read in HTML anyway.
- Remove DC_MAX_GET_{TEXT,INFO}_LEN constants from deltachat.h
- Fix a typo: s/DC_ELLIPSE/DC_ELLIPSIS/
- Do not truncate the text when loading from the database.
- Update the documentation: limit is in Rust chars, not bytes
Contact request chats are not merged into a single virtual "deaddrop"
chat anymore. Instead, they are shown in the chatlist the same way as
other chats, but sending of messages to them is not allowed and MDNs
are not sent automatically until the chat is "accepted" by the user.
New API:
- dc_chat_is_contact_request(): returns true if chat is a contact
request. In this case option to accept and block the chat via
dc_accept_chat() and dc_block_chat() should be shown in the UI.
- dc_accept_chat(): accept contact request and unblock the chat
- dc_block_chat(): decline contact request and block the chat
Removed API:
- dc_create_chat_by_msg_id(): deprecated 2021-02-07 in favor of
dc_decide_on_contact_request()
- dc_marknoticed_contact(): deprecated 2021-02-07 in favor of
dc_decide_on_contact_request()
- dc_decide_on_contact_request(): this call requires a message ID from
deaddrop chat as input. As deaddrop chat is removed, this call can't
be used anymore.
- dc_msg_get_real_chat_id(): use dc_msg_get_chat_id() instead, the
only difference between these calls was in handling of deaddrop chat
- removed DC_CHAT_ID_DEADDROP and DC_STR_DEADDROP constants
See https://support.delta.chat/t/discussion-how-to-show-error-states/1363/10 <!-- comment -->
It turns out that it's pretty easy to distinguish between lots of states (currently Error/NotConnected, Connecting…, Getting new messages… and Connected). What's not that easy is distinguishing between an actual error and no network, because if the server just doesn't respond, it could mean that we don't have network or that we are trying ipv6, but only ipv4 works.
**WRT debouncing:**
Sending of EVENT_CONNECTIVITY_CHANGED is not debounced, but emitted every time one of the 3 threads (Inbox, Mvbox and Sentbox) has a network error, starts fetching data, or is done fetching data.
This means that it is emitted:
- 9 times when dc_maybe_network() is called or we get network connection
- 12 times when we lose network connection
Some measurements: dc_get_connectivity() takes a little more than 1ms (in my measurements back in March), dc_get_connectivity_html() takes 10-20ms. This means that it's no immmediate problem to call them very often, might increase battery drain though. For the UI it may be a lot of work to update the title everytime; at least Android is smart enough to update the title only once.
Possible problems (we don't have to worry about them now I think):
- Due to the scan_folders feature, if the user has lots of folders, the state could be "Connecting..." for quite a long time, generally DC seemed a little unresponsive to me because it took so long for "Connecting..." to go away. Telegram has a state "Updating..." that sometimes comes after "Connecting...".
To be done in other PRs:
- Better handle the case that the password was changed on the server and authenticating fails, see https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/issues/1923 and https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/issues/1768
- maybe event debouncing (except for "Connected" connectivity events)
fix https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/issues/1760
in most (all?) UIs, import/export works on an already created account,
so, dc_accounts_import_account() does not really help here -
but adds some noise and confusion
eg. as for the other dc_accounts_t functions,
the corrsponding dc_context_t functions must not be called.
if really a new account is required for import,
it seems to be easier to call add_account() before import.
New `dc_msg_is_bot()` C API and corresponding `Message.is_bot()`
Python API can be used to check if incoming message is sent by a bot,
e.g. to avoid two echo bots replying indefinitely to each other.
"Bot" flag is not set for outgoing messages, but may be set for
BCC-self messages. For now documentation says that `dc_msg_is_bot()`
return value is unspecified for outgoing messages. It can be better
specified later if needed for specific applications, e.g. sharing an
account with a helper bot.
