In https://github.com/status-im/status-desktop/commit/a90a30af1 we've introduced the functionality to import
communities through the UI via a community private key.
That private key is being validated before it gets imported.
For some reason, validation has been removed in another refactor
later on in https://github.com/status-im/status-desktop/commit/534cb23e1, rendering the import
functionality broken.
This commit re-introduces the `validate()` method to make importing
communities work again.
Prior to this commit, communities without an image would render invisible
in the navigation bar of the application. To avoid this, we're now falling
back to our StatusLetterIdenticon component, which renders the first letter
of the community name with the color of the community.
When the communities code was moved into its own view in https://github.com/status-im/status-desktop/commit/b38d1df59
it broke the functionality to join communities again.
Qt complains that the Nim API in use `chatsModel.communities.joinCommunity`
expects two parameters, when it's call with just one.
This is unexpected because the API in question set a default value
for its second parameter.
To make this work again, we have to make sure the `setActive`
parameter is supplied every time we call the API from
within QML.
Also, worth noting that this is not the first time we're running into
a scenario like this.
This commit makes reactions in the status timeline work.
There are two things prior to this commit that are broken:
1. The logic that opens the reaction context menu always expects
and instance of `chatsView` because it tries to calculate a users
nickname. Such an instance isn't always available in that context, so
the nickname logic has been moved to `appMain` for now, removing that
dependency and therefore making it work in both, the chat view as well
as the status view.
2. While 1) makes the context menu work, it turns out that adding and
removing reactions inside the status timeline is still not working.
The reason for that is, that the reactions component maintains its own
`messageList`, which isn't aware of the fact that reactions for messages
coming from chats of `ChatType.Profile`, need to go into a dedicated
message list for `ChatType.Timeline`.
In other words, reactions are sent and removed from message in messagelists
that don't actually exist.
This commit fixes both of these things by ensuring the message lists
maintained by reactions are timeline aware. Also ensuring updates are
done correctly.
