- Use avatar initial instead of "R" or "?"
- Use Fuse.js to do case-insensitive fuzzy search. This allows for better sorting of results as well as search based on weighted keys (so userId has a high weight when the input starts with "@").
- Added debounce of 200ms to prevent analysis on every key stroke. Fuse seems to degrade performance vs. simple, non-fuzzy, unsorted matching, but the debounce should prevent too much computation.
- Move the selection to the top when the query is changed. There's no point in staying mid-way through the items at that point.
To fix https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/2916, force the checking of scroll position by calling _onWidgetLoad (might need renaming...) when a MELS is expanded/contracted.
Also use an keying scheme for MELS that doesn't depend on the events contained, but rather a simple incrementing index based on the order of the MELS as it appears amongst all MELS.
* Use binds rather than onFoo functions which aren't actually
handler functions themselves but return them
* Rename onKeyUp to moveSelectionDown etc,, reserving onKeyUp
for "a key has been released" rather than, "the up arrow key
has been pressed"
Transition pairs joined,left and left,joined are now transformed into single meta-transitions "joined_and_left" and "left_and_joined" respectively. These are described as "joined and left", "left and rejoined".
Treat consecutive sequences of transitions as repetitions, and handle any arbitrary repetitions of transitions:
...,joined,left,joined,left,joined,left,...
is canonicalised into
...,joined_and_left, joined_and_left, joined_and_left,...
which is truncated and described as
... , joined and left 3 times, ...
This also works if there are multiple consecutive sequences separated by other transitions:
..., banned, banned, banned, joined, unbanned, unbanned, unbanned,...
becomes
... was banned 3 times, joined, was unbanned 3 times ...
The MELS can now deal with arbitrary sequences of transitions per user, where a transition is a change in membership. A transition can be joined, left, invite_reject, invite_withdrawal, invited, banned, unbanned or kicked.
Repeated segments (modulo 1 and 2), such as joined,left,joined,left,joined will be handled and will be rendered as " ... and 10 others joined and left 2 times and then joined". The repeated segments are assumed to be at the beginning of the sequence. This could be improved to handle arbitrary repeated sequences.
