while adapting strings for the recent change about read receipts,
https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/pull/5712 , it turns
out in discussions eg. at
https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/issues/3179 that
untranslated english for the read receipts seem to be sufficient or even
better:
- do not reveal the sender's language
- unexpected languages are confusing - even if you chat in english, you
may get Chinese read receipts
- many clients do not show the text anyways, iirc, eg. Outlook display
the read receipts in context, and Delta Chat of course as well
- afaik, we're leaving comparable `multipart/report` untranslated as
well (sync, but also webxdc updates are practically english only)
- less code, fewer translations needed :)
New protocol streams .tar into iroh-net
stream without traversing all the files first.
Reception over old backup protocol
is still supported to allow
transferring backups from old devices
to new ones, but not vice versa.
Before, if `Config::FetchExistingMsgs` is set, existing messages were received with the `InSeen`
state set, but for bots they must be `InFresh` and also `IncomingMsg` events should be emitted for
them so that they are processed by bots as it happens with new messages.
... and fails if file already exists. The UI should open the file saving dialog, defaulting to
Downloads and original filename, when asked to save the file. After confirmation it should call
dc_msg_save_file().
This makes `EventTracker` receive events immediately
instead of being moved from event emitter to event tracker
by a task spawned from `TestContext::new_internal`.
This makes `EventTracker.clear_events` reliable
as it is guaranteed to remove all events emitted
by the time it is called rather than only events
that have been moved already.
as discussed in several chats, this PR starts making it possible to use
Webxdc as integrations to the main app. In other word: selected parts of
the main app can be integrated as Webxdc, eg. Maps [^1]
this PR contains two parts:
- draft an Webxdc Integration API
- use the Webxdc Integration API to create a Maps Integration
to be clear: a Webxdc is not part of this PR. the PR is about marking a
Webxdc being used as a Map - and core then feeds the Webxdc with
location data. from the view of the Webxdc, the normal
`sendUpdate()`/`setUpdateListener()` is used.
things are still marked as "experimental", idea is to get that in to
allow @adbenitez and @nicodh to move forward on the integrations into
android and desktop, as well as improving the maps.xdc itself.
good news is that we currently can change the protocol between Webxdc
and core at any point :)
# Webxdc Integration API
see `dc_init_webxdc_integration()` in `deltachat.h` for overview and
documentation.
rust code is mostly in `webxdc/integration.rs` that is called by other
places as needed. current [user of the API is
deltachat-ios](https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-ios/pull/1912),
android/desktop will probably follow.
the jsonrpc part is missing and can come in another PR when things are
settled and desktop is really starting [^2] (so we won't need to do all
iterations twice :) makes also sense, when this is done by someone
actually trying that out on desktop
while the API is prepared to allow other types of integrations (photo
editor, compose tools ...) internally, we currently ignore the type. if
that gets more crazy, we probably also need a dedicated table for the
integrations and not just a single param.
# Maps Integration
rust code is mostly in `webxdc/maps_integration.rs` that is called by
`webxdc/integration.rs` as needed.
EDIT: the idea of having a split here, is that
`webxdc/maps_integration.rs` really can focus on the json part, on the
communication with the .xdc, including tests
this PR is basic implementation, enabling to move forward on
integrations on iOS, but also on desktop and android.
the current implementation allows already the following:
- global and per-chat maps
- add and display POIs
- show positions and tracks of the last 24 hours
the current maps.xdc uses leaflet, and is in some regards better than
the current android/desktop implementations (much faster, show age of
positions, fade out positions, always show names of POIs, clearer UI).
however, we are also not bound to leaflet, it can be anything
> [**screenshots of the current
state**](https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-ios/pull/1912)
> 👆
to move forward faster and to keep this PR small, the following will go
to a subsequent PR:
- consider allowing webxdc to use a different timewindow for the
location
- delete POIs
- jsonrpc
[^1]: maps are a good example as anyways barely native (see android
app), did cause a lot of pain on many levels in the past (technically,
bureaucratically), and have a comparable simple api
[^2]: only going for jsonrpc would only make sense if large parts of
android/ios would use jsonrpc, we're not there

shows the last reaction in chatlist's summaries if there is no
newer message.
the reason to show reactions in the summary, is to make them a _little_
more visible when one is not in the chat. esp. in not-so-chatty or in
one-to-ones chats this becomes handy: imaging a question and someone
"answers" with "thumbs up" ...
otoh, reactions are still tuned down on purpose: no notifications, chats
are opend as usual, the chatlist is not sorted by reactions and also the
date in the summary refer to the last message - i thought quite a bit
about that, this seems to be good compromise and will raise the fewest
questions. it is somehow clear to the users that reactions are not the
same as a real message. also, it is comparable easy to implement - no
UI changes required :)
all that is very close to what whatsapp is doing (figured that out by
quite some testing ... to cite @adbenitez: if in doubt, we can blame
whatsapp :)
technically, i first wanted to go for the "big solution" and add two
more columns, chat_id and timestamp, however, it seemed a bit bloated if
we really only need the last one. therefore, i just added the last
reaction information to the chat's param, which seems more performant
but also easier to code :)
it was used by iOS to know when a background fetch was complete;
meanwhile the superiour `dc_accounts_background_fetch()` is used for
that.
there is still the corresponding context function `dc_all_work_done()`,
this not used by any UI as well, however, it is in use by a python
tests.
not sure, what to do with it, at a first glance, the test still seems
useful.
Restart the IO scheduler if needed to make the new config value effective (for `MvboxMove,
OnlyFetchMvbox, SentboxWatch` currently). Also add `set_config_internal()` which doesn't affect
running the IO scheduler. The reason is that `Scheduler::start()` itself calls `set_config()`,
although not for the mentioned keys, but still, and also Rust complains about recursive async calls.
@adbenitez wants this feature on Deltalab to display a bot tag.
Other UIs might also want to adopt this feature :)

Add an event for a case if a multi-device synced config value changed. Maybe the app needs to
refresh smth on such an event. For uniformity it is emitted on the source device too. The value is
omitted, otherwise it would be logged which might not be good for privacy.
This was introduced in https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/pull/4685
for internal use when looking up a chat based on In-Reply-To,
but actually affects the UIs as they should not display Download button
when the message is downloaded but cannot be decrypted.
this pr keeps and refines documentation added in #4951, however, reverts
the api introduced by #4951
which turns out to be not useful for UI in practise:
UI anyway check for chat/no-chat beforehand,
so a simple condition in profiles as
`green_checkmark = chat_exist ? chat_is_protected() :
contact_is_verified()`
is more useful in practise and is waht UI need and did already in the
past. (https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/pull/2836 shows a
detailed discussion)
(as a side effect, beside saving code,
this PR saves up to three database calls
(get contact from chat in UI to pass it to profile_is_verified(), get
chat from contact in core, load is_protected in core) - instead, core
can use already is_protected from already loaded chat object)
/me did check rust-tests, fingers crossed for python tests
/me should re-setup python tests on local machine at some point :)
Before, it was shown by UI when the chat is empty, however, in case of
verified groups, this is never the case any longer as the 'e2ee now
guaranteed' is always added.
Green checkmark in the contact profile
should only be displayed in the title
if the same checkmark is displayed in the title of 1:1 chat.
If 1:1 chat does not exist,
the checkmark should not be displayed in the title
of the contact profile.
Also add docs to is_protected
property of FullChat and BasicChat JSON objects.
