Checklist

General

Client

  • I strictly followed the client coding and design guidelines.
  • Following the theming guidelines, I specified colors only in the theming variable files and checked that the changes look consistent in both the light and the dark theme.
  • I added multiple integration tests (Jest) related to the features (with a high test coverage), while following the test guidelines.
  • I added multiple screenshots/screencasts of my UI changes.

Motivation and Context

Most chat applications group messages from the same user within short time intervals for a more intuitive and user-friendly experience. In Artemis, messages have the same spacing regardless of whether they're seconds or days apart, making the interface less engaging. This update aims to adjust message spacing dynamically to enhance the chat experience.

Description

  • Messages from the same user within a 1-hour timeframe are now grouped and appear closer together.
  • All message actions (reply, edit, delete, react) are now displayed side by side when hovering over the message, similar to standard chat applications.
  • An emoji add button has been added next to existing emoji reactions on messages, providing a familiar experience consistent with modern chat interfaces.

Steps for Testing

Prerequisites:

  • 1 Instructor
  1. Log in to Artemis.
  2. Navigate to the Communication section of a course and open a channel.
  3. Write 3 consecutive messages to the channel.
  4. Verify that the messages are grouped/appear closer together.
  5. Hover over each message and test all actions: reply, edit, delete, and react with an emoji.
  6. Reply to one of the messages using consecutive messages and verify that they are also grouped correctly.
  7. Hover over these consecutive messages and repeat testing all actions: reply, edit, delete, and react with an emoji.

Walkthrough

This pull request introduces various enhancements to the messaging and posting components within the application. Key changes include the addition of the isConsecutive property to both the AnswerPost and Post models, updates to the conversation messages component to utilize this property, and new CSS classes for improved styling. Additionally, new methods and interfaces for grouping posts are implemented, and several components have been removed or updated to reflect these changes.

src/main/webapp/app/entities/metis/answer-post.model.ts (1)

Line range hint 5-12: Consider consistent property initialization

For better consistency and readability, consider initializing all properties either inline or in the constructor. This would make the code more uniform and easier to maintain.

Here's a suggested refactor:

export class AnswerPost extends Posting {
    public resolvesPost: boolean = false;
    public post?: Post;
    public isConsecutive: boolean = false;

    constructor() {
        super();
    }
}

This approach initializes all properties inline, removing the need for initialization in the constructor and making the code more concise.

src/main/webapp/app/entities/metis/post.model.ts (1)

Line range hint 16-24: Consider adding type annotation and property description.

To further improve code readability and maintainability:

  1. Add a brief comment explaining the purpose of the isConsecutive property.
  2. Consider adding a type annotation to the constructor.

Here's an example of how you could implement these suggestions:

    /** Indicates whether this post is consecutive to the previous one in the conversation. */
    public isConsecutive: boolean = false;

    constructor(data: Partial<Post> = {}) {
        super();
        Object.assign(this, data);
        // set default values
        this.visibleForStudents = this.visibleForStudents ?? true;
        this.displayPriority = this.displayPriority ?? DisplayPriority.NONE;
    }

These changes would enhance the code's self-documentation and type safety.

src/main/webapp/app/shared/metis/posting-reactions-bar/posting-reactions-bar.component.scss (1)

Line range hint 1-48: Summary: Effective UI improvements for emoji reactions

The changes in this file successfully implement the UI improvements outlined in the PR objectives. The new .emoji-container class provides a clean, organized layout for emoji reactions, while the updated .reaction-button class ensures consistent styling. These modifications will enhance the visual coherence of the chat interface and support better theming capabilities.

To further improve maintainability and theming flexibility, consider creating a separate SCSS file for theme variables (if not already present). This would centralize all color and styling variables, making it easier to manage and update themes across the application.

src/test/javascript/spec/component/shared/metis/postings-header/post-header/post-header.component.spec.ts (1)

Line range hint 65-93: Enhance expectation specificity

While the test file generally adheres to the coding guidelines, there's room for improvement in using more specific matchers for some expectations. Consider the following suggestions:

  1. Replace expect(...).not.toBeNull() with expect(...).toBeDefined() or expect(...).toBeInstanceOf(HTMLElement) where appropriate.
  2. Use toBeTrue() instead of toBe(true) for boolean assertions.
  3. Consider using toContainHTML() or toHaveClass() for more specific element checks.

Example refactor for the "should display resolved icon on resolved post header" test:

it('should display resolved icon on resolved post header', () => {
    component.posting = metisPostExerciseUser1;
    component.posting.resolved = true;

    component.ngOnInit();
    fixture.detectChanges();

    expect(getElement(debugElement, '.resolved')).toBeInstanceOf(HTMLElement);
    expect(getElement(debugElement, '.resolved')).toHaveClass('resolved');
});

These changes will make the tests more robust and align better with the provided coding guidelines.

src/test/javascript/spec/component/overview/course-conversations/layout/conversation-messages/conversation-messages.component.spec.ts (1)

Line range hint 1-162: Overall structure is good, but consider performance improvements.

The new test case integrates well with the existing structure of the file. The use of Jest and NgMocks aligns with the specified coding guidelines. However, consider the following points:

  1. The file uses a mix of fakeAsync and non-fakeAsync tests. Ensure this is intentional and consistent with the asynchronous nature of the tested methods.

  2. As per the coding guidelines, consider implementing performance improvements by mocking irrelevant dependencies. Review the mocked services and components to ensure only necessary dependencies are included in each test.

  3. The test file adheres to the jest testing guidelines as specified. Good job on maintaining consistency with the existing testing patterns.

🧰 Tools
🪛 Biome

[error] 141-141: Forbidden non-null assertion.

Unsafe fix: Replace with optional chain operator ?. This operator includes runtime checks, so it is safer than the compile-only non-null assertion operator

(lint/style/noNonNullAssertion)

src/main/webapp/app/shared/metis/posting-reactions-bar/answer-post-reactions-bar/answer-post-reactions-bar.component.ts (1)

Line range hint 33-75: Add JSDoc comments to methods for better documentation

The methods ngOnInit(), ngOnChanges(), isAnyReactionCountAboveZero(), deletePosting(), setMayEditOrDelete(), and onEditPosting() lack JSDoc comments. Adding descriptive comments to these methods will enhance code readability and maintainability.

🧰 Tools
🪛 Biome

[error] 26-26: This type annotation is trivially inferred from its initialization.

Safe fix: Remove the type annotation.

The refactored code correctly introduces a div with the class emoji-container around the emoji and count. This enhances the structure and styling of the reaction buttons, improving the user interface.


79-106: Addition of reaction selector is implemented correctly

The new reaction selector button and the associated emoji picker are integrated properly. The use of cdkOverlay components is appropriate, and the conditional rendering based on isAnyReactionCountAboveZero() and isEmojiCount ensures the selector appears under the right conditions.


108-140: Conditional rendering of edit, delete, and pin controls is correctly handled

The conditions !isEmojiCount && mayEditOrDelete and !isEmojiCount && (displayPriority === DisplayPriority.PINNED || canPin) are accurately used to render the edit, delete, and pin buttons appropriately based on the user's permissions and the component's state. The implementation aligns with best practices for conditional rendering in Angular templates.

35-40: Well-implemented 'DayjsToDatePipe' for date conversion

The DayjsToDatePipe provides a reusable and clean solution for converting dayjs.Dayjs objects to Date objects in templates, promoting code reuse and aligning with Angular best practices.


183-227: Effective grouping of posts enhances user experience

The groupPosts method successfully groups posts by author and time interval, aligning with the PR objectives to adjust message spacing based on timing. This improves the visual coherence of conversations and enhances the user interface.

LGTM! Consider using non-null assertion for better type safety.

The addition of the isConsecutive input property aligns well with the PR objectives for enhancing message grouping. The implementation follows Angular best practices and our coding guidelines.

Consider using a non-null assertion operator to improve type safety:

- @Input() isConsecutive: boolean | undefined = false;
+ @Input() isConsecutive!: boolean;

This change eliminates the need for the undefined type and the default value, as Angular will always provide a value for input properties. It also aligns better with the component's OnPush change detection strategy.

🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM: Consistent color for reaction buttons

The addition of the color: var(--metis-gray); property to the .reaction-button class ensures consistent text color for reaction buttons. This change supports the PR's objective of maintaining consistency across themes.

For improved consistency, consider using semantic color variables. For example:

- color: var(--metis-gray);

This allows for more flexible theming while maintaining the current color as a fallback.

Consider renaming the output property for clarity

The output property isModalOpen suggests a boolean value rather than an event emitter.

⚠️ Potential issue

Avoid redundant properties and method calls

The properties currentUserIsAtLeastTutor and isAtLeastTutorInCourse both store the result of this.metisService.metisUserIsAtLeastTutorInCourse(). Assigning the same value to two properties is redundant and may cause confusion. Consider using a single property throughout the class to represent this state.

To resolve this, you can remove one of the properties and update references accordingly.

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Refactor to eliminate code duplication in addOrRemoveReaction

The lines this.updatePostingWithReactions();, this.showReactionSelector = false;, and this.reactionsUpdated.emit(this.posting.reactions); are repeated in both the deleteReaction and createReaction subscription callbacks. To improve code maintainability and readability, consider extracting these lines into a separate method and invoking it in both callbacks.

Here's how you can refactor the code:

addOrRemoveReaction(emojiId: string): void {
    const existingReactionIdx = /* existing code */;
    if (this.posting.reactions && existingReactionIdx > -1) {
        const reactionToDelete = this.posting.reactions[existingReactionIdx];
        this.metisService.deleteReaction(reactionToDelete).subscribe(() => {
            this.posting.reactions = this.posting.reactions?.filter((reaction) => reaction.id !== reactionToDelete.id);
+           this.handleReactionUpdate();
        });
    } else {
        const reactionToCreate = this.buildReaction(emojiId);
        this.metisService.createReaction(reactionToCreate).subscribe(() => {
+           this.handleReactionUpdate();
        });
    }
}

⚠️ Potential issue

Subscribe to the observable returned by deletePost

The call to this.metisService.deletePost(this.posting); does not subscribe to the observable returned by deletePost. As a result, the delete operation will not be executed. In Angular, observables need to be subscribed to in order to perform the operation. Please add a subscription to handle the response and potential errors.

Tested on TS5, generally it works but I noticed two things:

  • In a thread, the button for "message resolves thread" (the tick) is only available for the first of consecutive messages. We probably should have this option available for all messages, like editing and deleting.
  • I noticed that the options bar on regular messages often overlaps the message itself. Is this intentional? Considering that there is quite a bit of room in between the messages, we could probably position the menu in a way that doesn't overlap the content

16-18: LGTM! Appropriate spacing for message content.

The .message-content class with left padding enhances the visual hierarchy of the messages, aligning well with the PR objectives for improving message display.


24-37: LGTM! Well-implemented hover actions.

The .hover-actions class is expertly crafted with absolute positioning and smooth transition effects. It aligns perfectly with the PR objectives for redesigning message action buttons. The use of CSS variables for colors and backgrounds ensures consistency with the overall theme.


10-14: 🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider adding box-shadow for depth.

The .message-container class is well-structured and aligns with the PR objectives. The relative positioning, border-radius, and transition enhance the visual appeal and prepare for smooth hover effects.

To further improve the visual hierarchy, consider adding a subtle box-shadow as suggested in the previous review:

24-26: LGTM! Appropriate padding for message content.

The .message-content class with left padding is a good addition. It helps to visually separate the message content from the container edge, improving readability and aligning with the PR objectives.


Line range hint 1-59: Overall, excellent implementation with room for minor enhancements.

The changes in this file align well with the PR objectives of refactoring the consecutive message view and enhancing the user experience. The new classes and their properties effectively implement the desired styling and interactions for the messaging component.

The suggested enhancements, including improving transition effects, keyboard accessibility, and consistent use of CSS variables, will further refine the implementation. These minor adjustments will contribute to a more polished and accessible user interface.

Great job on the implementation! The code is clean, well-structured, and achieves the intended goals.

src/main/webapp/app/shared/metis/post/post.component.html (3)

Line range hint 1-12: Conditional Rendering of Post Header Based on Message Continuity

The jhi-post-header component is now conditionally rendered when !isConsecutive, effectively hiding the header for consecutive messages from the same user. This aligns with the PR objectives to group messages and enhances the chat interface by reducing redundancy.


53-83: Appropriate Structuring of Message Content and Reactions

The message content is now enclosed within a new <div> with [ngClass]="{ 'mx-0': !isThreadSidebar }", which ensures proper styling based on the thread sidebar state. The jhi-posting-content component is correctly configured with all necessary inputs and outputs.

The conditional rendering of the jhi-post-reactions-bar within the message content when !previewMode is appropriate, as it prevents reactions from being displayed in preview mode, maintaining a clean and focused interface.


98-107: Duplicate Instance of jhi-post-reactions-bar Component

The previous review comment regarding the necessity of multiple instances of jhi-post-reactions-bar is still applicable to this code segment. Please confirm that having multiple instances is intentional and that they serve distinct purposes based on the component state. Ensure that conditions are explicitly handled to prevent unintended duplication.

🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider using a CSS variable for icon size.

The .clickable class and its hover effect are well-implemented, providing clear visual feedback for interactive elements. To improve maintainability, consider using a CSS variable for the icon size as suggested in a previous review:

+:root {
+    --metis-icon-size: 1rem;
+}

 .reactionIcon,
 .editIcon,
 .deleteIcon {
-    font-size: 1rem;
+    font-size: var(--metis-icon-size);
     color: var(--metis-blue);
 }

This makes it easier to adjust the icon size globally if needed.

The .message-container class is well-implemented and aligns with the PR objectives. To further improve the smooth transition effect, consider adding border-radius to the transition property:

 .message-container {
     position: relative;
     border-radius: 5px;
-    transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
+    transition: background-color 0.3s ease, border-radius 0.3s ease;
 }

This change will ensure a smoother transition if the border-radius changes on different states (e.g., hover).

🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider using a CSS variable for hover color.

The .clickable class and its hover effect are well-implemented, providing consistent styling and visual feedback for user interactions. This aligns with the PR objectives of enhancing the message action buttons.

For better consistency and easier theme management, consider using a CSS variable for the hover color:

 /* Optional: Additional styling for icons on hover */
 .hover-actions .clickable:hover {
-    color: var(--bs-white);
+    color: var(--metis-icon-hover-color, var(--bs-white));
 }

This change allows for easier customization across different themes and maintains consistency with the use of CSS variables in other parts of the application.

Unused Mocks and Incomplete Test Coverage Identified

After running the verification scripts:

  1. Unused Mocks:

    • Several mock services are imported but not utilized in the tests. Consider removing the following imports to clean up the test suite:
      • MockMetisService
      • MockNgbModalService
      • MockAccountService
  2. Missing Test Cases:

    • The current test suite does not include tests for edit and delete functionalities based on user roles. To ensure comprehensive coverage, please add test cases that verify:
      • Edit options are available/enabled only for authorized user roles.
      • Delete options are available/enabled only for authorized user roles.
🔗 Analysis chain

Line range hint 1-124: Consider enhancing test coverage and removing unused setup.

Based on the AI summary and the current state of the test suite:

  1. Test coverage gaps: The removal of tests for edit and delete options based on user roles might leave important functionality untested. Consider adding back these tests or ensuring that this functionality is covered elsewhere.

  2. Unused setup: The test suite still includes setup for user role checks (metisServiceUserIsAtLeastTutorMock, metisServiceUserPostingAuthorMock) that may no longer be necessary. Consider removing this setup if it's not used in the remaining tests.

  3. Comprehensive testing: Ensure that the remaining tests provide adequate coverage of the component's functionality. Consider adding tests for any untested features or edge cases.

To help identify potential gaps in test coverage, you can run the following command to check for unused mocks and potentially missing test cases:

This script will help identify any unused mocks and list the current test cases, allowing you to assess if any important scenarios are missing.

10-14: LGTM! Consider adding box-shadow for depth.

The .message-container class is well-structured and aligns with the PR objectives. The relative positioning, border-radius, and transition properties enhance the visual appeal and prepare for smooth hover effects.

As suggested in a previous review, consider adding a subtle box-shadow to further improve the visual hierarchy:

 .message-container {
     position: relative;
     border-radius: 5px;
     transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
+    box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
 }

16-22: LGTM! Well-implemented message content styling.

The .message-content class is well-designed:

  • The left padding improves readability and allows space for potential avatars or indentation.
  • The hover effect provides clear visual feedback, enhancing user interaction.
  • The use of CSS variables (var(--metis-selection-option-hover-background)) ensures consistency with the overall theme.

These styles align well with the PR objectives of enhancing the chat interface.


24-42: LGTM! Consider adding keyboard focus styles for accessibility.

The .hover-actions class and its associated hover rule are well-implemented:

  • Absolute positioning places the actions above the message as intended.
  • Flex display ensures proper spacing between action buttons.
  • Smooth transitions create an elegant appearance/disappearance effect.
  • The background and border-radius properties make the actions visually distinct.

These styles align well with the PR objectives of redesigning message action buttons.

As suggested in a previous review, consider adding styles for keyboard focus to improve accessibility:

-.message-container:hover .hover-actions {
+.message-container:hover .hover-actions,
+.message-container:focus-within .hover-actions {
     opacity: 1;
     visibility: visible;
 }

This ensures that keyboard users can also access the hover actions.


44-46: LGTM! Clear indication of interactive elements.

The .clickable class is a simple but effective addition:

  • It provides a clear visual cue that an element is interactive by changing the cursor to a pointing hand.
  • This enhancement improves the overall usability of the chat interface, aligning with the PR objectives.
src/main/webapp/app/shared/metis/post/post.component.scss (3)

24-30: LGTM! Well-implemented message content styling.

The .message-content class is correctly implemented with appropriate left padding and a hover effect. The use of a CSS variable for the hover background color (var(--metis-selection-option-hover-background)) ensures consistency with the overall theme and allows for easy customization. This implementation aligns well with the PR objectives of enhancing the chat interface.


52-54: LGTM! Simple and effective implementation.

The .clickable class is correctly implemented, setting the cursor to pointer for interactive elements. This simple addition enhances the user experience by providing visual feedback for clickable items, aligning well with the PR objectives of improving the chat interface usability.


18-22: 🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider enhancing the transition effect.

The .message-container class is well-implemented and aligns with the PR objectives. To further improve the smooth transition effect, consider adding border-radius to the transition property:

 .message-container {
     position: relative;
     border-radius: 5px;
-    transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
+    transition: background-color 0.3s ease, border-radius 0.3s ease;
 }

This change will ensure a smoother transition if the border-radius changes on different states (e.g., hover).

1-1: Use of dynamic margin class is appropriate

The addition of [ngClass]="{ 'mx-0': !isThreadSidebar }" correctly adjusts the margin based on the isThreadSidebar property, enhancing the component's responsiveness.


Line range hint 2-12: Proper implementation of conditional header display using @if

The use of @if (!isConsecutive) aligns with the new Angular syntax guidelines, ensuring that the <jhi-post-header> component is displayed only when the message is not consecutive. This meets the PR's objective of grouping messages from the same user.


53-64: Efficient structuring of message content with appropriate bindings

The introduction of the message-container and message-content divs wraps the <jhi-posting-content> component effectively. The use of @if (!displayInlineInput) ensures that the message content is hidden when inline editing is active.


107-107: Verify the usage of [isEmojiCount] input property

The property [isEmojiCount]="true" is being passed to <jhi-post-reactions-bar>. Please confirm that the jhi-post-reactions-bar component accepts isEmojiCount as an @Input property.

Run the following script to verify:

✅ Verification successful

Verification Successful: [isEmojiCount] is a valid @Input property in the jhi-post-reactions-bar component.

🏁 Scripts executed

The following scripts were executed for the analysis:

Script:

#!/bin/bash

🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider improving keyboard accessibility.

The .hover-actions class and its related hover effect are well-implemented, providing a smooth appearance of action buttons on hover. This aligns with the PR objectives of redesigning message action buttons.

To improve accessibility for keyboard users, consider adding a focus state:

 .message-container:hover .hover-actions,
+.message-container:focus-within .hover-actions {
     opacity: 1;
     visibility: visible;
 }

This change ensures that the action buttons are also visible when navigating through the messages using a keyboard, enhancing the overall accessibility of the chat interface.

🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider optimizing imports.

The addition of specific sample data imports (metisAnswerPostUser2, metisResolvingAnswerPostUser1, metisUser1) aligns well with the focus on testing resolved states of posts. However, if user role tests have been removed as indicated in the AI summary, the metisUser1 import might be unnecessary.

Consider removing the metisUser1 import if it's no longer used in the test suite to keep the imports clean and relevant.

Tested on ts4, consecutive messages are grouped together 👍 However, I found some minor issues regarding the layout.

  • I think elements in post reaction bar are not aligned correctly, reply button seems a little bit off to me. Can you add align-items-center in the first line of this component? Besides, when hovering on the message, the white background of the reaction bar disrupts the layout there. I think we can provide some border or something similar (see screenshot). We can also display them in the message bar when we hover on the message instead of letting them pop out at top.
Screenshot 2024-10-12 at 16 29 22
  • Secondy, when I send another message 4-5 min after the consecutive messages, the new message (Test Message 16.40) is still displayed/grouped with older messages. I think it should not be grouped with old messages.

16-18: LGTM! Appropriate padding for message content.

The .message-content class with its left padding of 0.3rem provides a suitable visual separation for the message content, aligning well with the PR objectives of enhancing the chat interface.


24-38: LGTM! Well-implemented hover actions.

The .hover-actions class is excellently implemented. It aligns perfectly with the PR objectives by providing a smooth and visually appealing way to display message action buttons. The use of CSS variables for colors, the carefully crafted transitions, and the thoughtful positioning all contribute to a polished user experience.


45-47: LGTM! Clear indication of interactive elements.

The .clickable class is a simple yet effective way to indicate interactive elements. It aligns well with the PR objectives by enhancing the usability of the chat interface.


Line range hint 1-47: Overall, excellent implementation with minor suggestions for improvement.

The changes in this file align well with the PR objectives of enhancing the chat interface. The new classes and styles effectively implement the grouping of consecutive messages and the redesign of message action buttons. The use of CSS variables ensures consistency with the overall theme.

A few minor suggestions have been made to further improve accessibility and visual depth. Consider implementing these suggestions to make the interface even more robust and user-friendly.


10-14: 🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider adding box-shadow for depth.

The .message-container class is well-structured and aligns with the PR objectives. The relative positioning and border-radius enhance the visual appeal, while the transition prepares for smooth hover effects.

To further improve the visual hierarchy, consider adding a subtle box-shadow as suggested in the previous review:

 .message-container {
     position: relative;
     border-radius: 5px;
     transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
+    box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
 }

Likely invalid or redundant comment.

18-22: LGTM! The .message-container class is well-implemented.

The .message-container class properties align well with the PR objectives for grouping consecutive messages. The relative positioning and border-radius contribute to the desired visual grouping effect.


53-55: LGTM! The .clickable class is appropriately implemented.

The .clickable class effectively indicates interactive elements by setting the cursor style. This simple implementation aligns well with the PR objectives of enhancing user interaction in the chat interface.


32-51: 🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider using CSS variables for consistent spacing.

The .hover-actions class is well-implemented, aligning with the PR objectives for redesigning message action buttons. The use of CSS variables for colors is good for maintainability.

For better consistency and easier maintenance, consider using CSS variables for spacing values:

 .hover-actions {
     position: absolute;
-    top: -1.8rem;
-    right: 1%;
+    top: var(--hover-actions-top, -1.8rem);
+    right: var(--hover-actions-right, 1%);
     display: flex;
-    gap: 10px;
+    gap: var(--hover-actions-gap, 10px);
     /* ... other properties ... */
-    padding: 5px;
+    padding: var(--hover-actions-padding, 5px);
     border-radius: 5px;
     border: 0.01rem solid var(--metis-gray);
 }

This change allows for easier customization and maintains consistency with the use of CSS variables in other parts of the application.

src/main/webapp/app/shared/metis/posting-reactions-bar/post-reactions-bar/post-reactions-bar.component.html (5)

1-1: Component container initialized correctly

The outer <div> is appropriately set up with the necessary classes to ensure proper layout and styling of the reaction bar.


Line range hint 35-51: Conditional rendering for conversation actions

The addition of the conditional blocks correctly handles the display of 'start discussion' and 'expand answers' buttons based on the isEmojiCount and isThreadSidebar flags. The logic aligns with the intended user experience on the communication page.


61-76: Proper rendering of emoji reactions

The implementation for displaying emoji reactions when isEmojiCount is true is correct. The use of reactionMetaData ensures dynamic rendering, and the interaction handlers are appropriately set up.


108-116: Edit functionality is implemented correctly

The edit button is conditionally rendered based on the isEmojiCount and mayEditOrDelete flags. The click event handler appropriately opens the edit modal, and tooltips provide a good user experience.


118-139: Delete and pin actions are handled properly

The delete button uses jhi-confirm-icon to confirm the deletion action, enhancing safety. The pin functionality correctly checks permissions and updates the UI accordingly. The use of @if ensures these elements are only rendered when appropriate.

🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider adding keyboard focus styles for accessibility.

The hover effect for .message-content is well-implemented and aligns with the PR objectives. To improve accessibility, consider adding styles for keyboard focus:

-.message-content:hover {
+.message-content:hover,
+.message-content:focus-within {
     background: var(--metis-selection-option-hover-background);
 }

This ensures that keyboard users can also access the hover state.

🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Consider adding a transition for smoother hover effect.

The .message-content class is well-implemented, providing visual separation and a hover effect that aligns with the PR objectives. The use of a CSS variable for the hover background color is a good practice for maintainability.

To enhance the user experience further, consider adding a transition for the hover effect:

 .message-content {
     padding-left: 0.3rem;
+    transition: background-color 0.2s ease;
 }

This will create a smoother transition when hovering over the message content.

⚠️ Potential issue

Avoid nesting buttons to maintain valid HTML structure

The <jhi-confirm-icon> component is wrapped inside a <button> element. If <jhi-confirm-icon> renders a <button> internally, nesting buttons is invalid HTML and can cause accessibility issues.

Tested on ts4, consecutive messages are grouped together 👍 However, I found some minor issues regarding the layout.

  • I think elements in post reaction bar are not aligned correctly, reply button seems a little bit off to me. Can you add align-items-center in the first line of this component? Besides, when hovering on the message, the white background of the reaction bar disrupts the layout there. I think we can provide some border or something similar (see screenshot). We can also display them in the message bar when we hover on the message instead of letting them pop out at top.
Screenshot 2024-10-12 at 16 29 22 * Secondy, when I send another message 4-5 min after the consecutive messages, the new message (Test Message 16.40) is still displayed/grouped with older messages. I think it should not be grouped with old messages. Screenshot 2024-10-12 at 16 40 53
  • I added a border and align-items-center for the reaction bar style.
  • What do you mean by displaying them on message bar? Since the conversation messages are closer now, I think it is not possible to display the reaction bar without hovering effect. If we display the reactions in the message bar, it may overlap with the content and make it harder to read.
  • I grouped the messages based on a 1-hour window because I thought that's how Slack does it, but I can adjust it to any preferred time interval.

I grouped the messages based on a 1-hour window because I thought that's how Slack does it, but I can adjust it to any preferred time interval.

The iOS app currently has a timeout of 5 minutes. On Slack it’s also something similar (definitely under 10 minutes, so probably also 5), so for consistency I think 5 min makes sense :)

Tested on TS3 and TS4, emojis, deleting and updating works as described. Also the messages are grouped together. Yet when I pin the message, it won't appear as pinned:

no pinning

Also, the "Show 1 reply" doesn't appear below the message and I think it would be better if it did appear there so you won't have to hover over each message to know which one is in a thread and which one not.

threads show up only when hovering

I tested on test server 3. Delete, edit, comments and react worked as expected. The messages are also group as expected. The pin function doens't seem to work. I would also recommend to put the options bar closer or even better, when right click on a message, a pop up would appear and allow users to choose weather to comment, edit or react, similar to that in slack for example. The current options bar are a bit to far and pose to be a nuance when one wants to move the mouse there to choose to comment
