Prior to this commit, the function was expected on a `chatView` QML object.
This has worked out so far because the places where the API is used were always
living inside `ChatLayout`.
With the new timeline however, this is no longer the case so we have to make sure
that the API is available to other views as well.
Fixes#1377.
Fixes#1479.
Two sites have been added to the whitelist: giphy.com and tenor.com.
`imageUrls` in its entirety has been removed and instead all links are being handle through the message `linkUrls`. This prevents double-handling of urls that may or may not be images.
The logic to automatically show links previews works like this:
1. If the setting "display chat images" is enabled, all links that *contain* ".png", ".jpg", ".jpeg", ".svg", ".gif" will be automatically shown. If the URL doesn't contain the extension, we are not downloading it. This was meant to be somewhat of a security compromise as we do not want to download each and every link posted in a message just to find out its true content type.
2. If the above setting is *disabled*, then we follow the whitelist settings for tenor and giphy. This allows us to preview gifs that do not have a file extension in their url.
feat: bump status-go to the commit that supports the new whitelist (https://github.com/status-im/status-go/pull/2094), and also lets us get link preview data from urls in the whitelist. NOTE: this commit was branched off status-go `develop`, so once it is merged, and we update this PR to the new commit, we will effectively be getting status-go develop changes. We *could* base that status-go PR off of master if it makes things easier.
fix: height on settings update issue
feat: move date/time of message below links
fix: layout issues when changing setting `neverAskAboutUnfurlingAgain`
feat: Add MessageBorder component to aid in showing rounded corners with different radius
YouTube link unfurling was not working for a couple reasons.
There were two main parts fixed:
1. QML context for messages pertaining to linkUrls and imageUrls was changed from implicit to explicit. By this, I mean that any time we referenced linkUrls/imageUrls, we were relying on the knowledge that those values would be populated by some parent context several levels up. Now, we are referring to properties that have been explicitly defined on the components. This offers the ability to reuse components, and makes reading the code and debugging much easier.
2. Error handling has been added to getting link preview data. An unhandled "error" was thrown each time a link that wasn't whitelisted was passed in, causing the app to crash. For example, when a link to a tenor gif was posted in the chat, that URL was not whitelisted, causing the app to crash.
In timeline status update messages we want to render the ENS name next to a
local nickname in case it exists. This commit extends the `UsernameLabel` to do
just that.
Closes#1488
