- Replace .ok_or_else() and .map_err() with anyhow::Context where possible.
- Use .context() to check Option for None when it's an error
- Resultify Chatlist.get_chat_id()
- Add useful .context() to some errors
- IMAP error handling cleanup
`imap` table maps Message-IDs to UIDs on the server. `dc_receive_imf`
no longer gets the UID of the message as an argument and does not
insert the folder and UID of the message into the `msgs`
table. `server_folder` and `server_uid` columns in `msgs` table are
deprecated.
MoveMsg and DeleteMsgOnImap jobs are removed. Now messages are moved
and deleted only in the `fetch_move_delete` procedure that consults
the `target` column of the `imap` table to determine where the message
should go.
Where the message should go is determined after prefetching by the
`imap::target_folder()` procedure. Messages are only downloaded once
they reach their target folder to avoid race conditions in multidevice
setting, such as:
1. One device trying to FETCH the message while the other tries to
MOVE it.
2. One device marking the message as \Seen in the Inbox while the
other has already copied unseen message to the Movebox and is going to
delete the \Seen message in the Inbox.
3. Device downloads the message from the Inbox while there are newer
messages in the Movebox placed there by the other device, thus
processing the messages out of order.
* 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

in the past, group-messages were marked as "read by recipient"
only when at least 50% of the group members have send a read receipt -
in practise, this does happen never or much too late esp. in larger groups.
setting the state OutMdnRcvd already on the first read-receipt
seems to be much more intuitive and useful as you at least know
one person has read the message.
this is also what other messengers as telegram are doing here.
moreover, this fixes a bug that did not add all read-receipts
to the "Info" screen - once "enough" read-receipts were received,
and the state was already set to OutMdnRcvd, subsequent read-receipts
were ignored.
probably because the "Info" screen did not show the read-receipts since forever -
and for the second tick, the addutional read-receipts are not needed.

* remove superfluous closure in ffi
* respect partial_download for immediately scheduled DeleteMsgOnImap jobs
summary::Summary replaces Lot in the Rust API for methods returning
chatlist summaries. Lot is a legacy type for C API compatibility, so
Summary can be converted into Lot.
- 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
Previously system messages were always added to the end of the chat,
even if the message triggering them was sent earlier. This is
especially important for messages about disappearing timer reset
triggered by classic email messages, as they should be placed right
after the message resetting the timer.
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
Raw MIME messages may contain non-ASCII characters. Attempting to
store them as TEXT by using String::from_utf8_lossy results in
non-ASCII characters being replaced with Unicode U+FFFD "REPLACEMENT
CHARACTER" which is later incorrectly decoded when attempting to parse
`mime_headers` content into HTML.
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.
Using `impl AsRef<str>` as the argument instead of `&str` makes it
possible to call the function with `&str`, `String` and other types
that implement `AsRef` trait.
The cost of it is that compiled binary contains mulitple versions of
the same function, one for each variant of types. If function contains
multiple generic `impl AsRef` arguments, the number of versions possibly
compiled into binary grows exponentially with the number of arguments.
Simple way to avoid it is to call `.as_ref()` on the caller side to
convert the argument to `&str`. In most cases even adding a `&` and
relying on `Deref` coercion is sufficient.
This patch changes many functions that accepted `impl AsRef<str>` and
`impl AsRef<Path>` to accept `&str` and `&Path` instead.
In some places `.clone()` calls are removed. Calling `.clone()` on
`String` and passing `String` to a function accepting `impl
AsRef<str>` is completely unnecessary as `&str` reference could be
passed instead. There is no clippy warning against it yet, but
changing argument type to `&str` allowed to find these cases.
The result of debloating is not impressive, several hundred kilobytes
are saved, which is about 3% of the `.so` binary, but the code is
cleaner too.
This moves the module-level lookup and creation functions to the
types, which make the naming more consistent. Now the lookup_* get_*
and create_* functions all behave similarly.
Peraps even more important the API of the lookup now allows
distinguishing failure from not found. This in turn is important to
be able to remove reliance on a ChatId with a 0 or "unset" value. The
locations where this ChatId(0) is still used is in database queries
which should be solved in an independed commit.
This introduces the explicit ChatIdBlocked struct to more explicitly
create a chat with a blocked status. It also adds a common shortcut
to ChatId itself which is more natural to use in many cases.
* Remove sql::error submodule
Use anyhow errors instead.
* Remove explicit checks for open SQL connection
An error will be thrown anyway during attempt to execute query.
* Don't use `with_conn()` and remove it
* Remove unused `with_conn_async`
* Resultify markseen_msgs
messages are marked as 'noticed' already when the chat is opened
as all UIs call dc_marknoticed_chat();
also marking messages as 'noticed' when dc_markseen_msgs() is called
is not needed therefore - but stands in the way of further improvements
for the deaddrop, eg. UI may let the user decide when the deaddrop
can be removed from chatlist ('All done' button or so)
&str queries are not persistent by default. To make queries persistent,
they have to be constructed with sqlx::query.
Upstream sqlx does not contain the change that make all queries
persistent, but it is not needed anymore. but
