Fix case where db is deleted but password hash still remains which causes user to never register.
Allow password to have symbols and other characters.
Added more tests.
Moved passHash from config into the sqlite db.
We can do this because we assume if sql failed to initialise then the key provided was wrong and thus we can show the user the password page.

- network_tests_view_test.js: Comment duplicate assignment to window.getSocketStatus
Quite a bit of change here.
First, the basics:
- New dependencies were added: react, typescript, tslint, and react-styleguidist
- A new npm script: transpile. It uses typescript to process .tsx files in js/react, putting .js files next to the original file. It's part of the watch functionality of grunt dev as well as the default task run with just grunt (used to build the app prior to release). A lighter-weight to get watch behavior when just working on React components is to run yarn transpile --watch.
- yarn run clean-transpile will remove generated .js files
Style guide via react-styleguidist. Example site: https://react-styleguidist.js.org/examples/basic/
- Start with yarn styleguide
- Component.md files right next to the .tsx file
- jsdoc-style comments are picked up and added to the generated part of the styleguide - the overall summary and a table listing methods and properties of the component
- It has hot-reloading!
- It uses webpack, which means that our app now pulls in webpack though we don't use it to generate anything for the production app.
- I did a bunch of work to enable the use of Backbone views in this context, which will allow us to move smoothly from the old world to the new. First, add all the permutations in the old way, and then slowly start to re-render those same views with React.
A bit of dependency cleanup to enable use in React components:
- moment was moved from our Bower dependencies to our npm dependencies, so it can be used in React components not running in a browser window.
- i18n was moved into the new commonjs format, so it can be used in React components even if window is not available.
Lastly, a bit of Gruntfile cleanup:
- Removal of Chrome App-era modifications of background.js
- Make jshint/jscs watch more targeted, since more and more we'll be using other tools
npm run transpile
Works on files under js/react/
Outputs files right next to the .tsx file
This is part of our `grunt dev` task, as well as the default grunt task,
which does everything else necessary to get a raw git checkout ready to
run.
Introduce placeholder migrations for Backbone models so they never implicitly
run migrations whenever they are `fetch`ed. We prefer to run our migrations
explicitly upon app startup and then let Backbone models be (slightly) dumb(er)
models, without inadvertently triggering migrations.
Let’s make it clear that this is where we initialize our namespaces to avoid
proliferation of various initialization points now that we support CommonJS.

This follows implementation of Android and recommendation from Alissa.
- A new design for the import flow. It features:
- Icons at the top of every screen
- Gray background, blue buttons, thinner text
- Simpler copy
- A new design for the install flow. It features:
- Immediate entry into the QR code screen
- Animated dots to show that we're loading the QR code from the server
- Fewer screens: 1) QR 2) device name 3) sync-in-progress
- When not set up, the app opens directly into the install screen, which has been streamlined. The `--import` command-line argument will cause the app to open directly into the import flow.
- Support for two different flavors of builds - the normal build will open into the standard registration flow, and the import flavor will be exactly the same except during setup it will open directly into the import flow.
- A new design for the (dev-only) standalone registration view
- When these install sequences are active, the OS File menu has entries to allow you to switch the method of setup you'd like to use. These go away as soon as the first step is taken in any of these flows.
- The device name (chosen on initial setup) is now shown in the settings panel
- At the end of a light import, we hand off to the normal device link screen, starting at the QR code. On a full import, we remove the sensitive encryption information in the export to prevent conflicts on multiple imports.
- `Whisper.Backup.exportToDirectory()` takes an options object so you can tell it to do a light export.
- `Whisper.Backup.importFromDirectory()` takes an options object so you can force it to load only the light components found on disk. It also returns an object so you can tell whether a given import was a full import or light import.
- On start of import, we build a list of all the ids present in the messages, conversations, and groups stores in IndexedDB. This can take some time if a lot of data is in the database already, but it makes the subsequent deduplicated import very fast.
- Disappearing messages are now excluded when exporting
- Remove some TODOs in the tests
As described in #998, images are sometimes displayed with an incorrect
orientation. This is because cameras often write files in the native sensor byte
order and attach the `Orientation` EXIF metadata to tell end-user devices how to
display the images based on the original author’s capture orientation.
Electron/Chromium (and therefore Signal Desktop) currently doesn’t support
applying this metadata for `<img>` tags, e.g. CSS `image-orientation: from-
image`. As a workaround, this change uses the `loadImage` library with the
`orientation: true` flag to auto-orient images ~~before display~~ upon receipt
and before sending.
**Changes**
- [x] ~~Auto-orient images during display in message list view~~
- [x] Ensure image is not displayed until loaded (to prevent layout reflow) .
- [x] Auto-orient images upon receipt and before storing in IndexedDB
(~~or preserve original data until Chromium offers native fix?~~)
- [x] Auto-orient images in compose area preview.
- [x] ~~Auto-orient images in lightbox view~~
- [x] Auto-orient images before sending / storage.
- [x] Add EditorConfig for sharing code styles across editors.
- [x] Fix ESLint ignore file.
- [x] Change `function-paren-newline` ESLint rule from
`consistent` to `multiline`.
- [x] Add `operator-linebreak` ESLint rule for consistency.
- [x] Added `blob-util` dependency for converting between array buffers,
blobs, etc.
- [x] Extracted `createMessageHandler` to consolidate logic for
`onMessageReceived` and `onSentMessage`.
- [x] Introduce `async` / `await` to simplify async coding (restore control flow
for branching, loops, and exceptions).
- [x] Introduce `window.Signal` namespace for exposing ES2015+ CommonJS modules.
- [x] Introduce rudimentary `Message` and `Attachment` types to begin defining a
schema and versioning. This will allow us to track which changes, e.g.
auto-orient JPEGs, per message / attachment as well as which fields
are stored.
- [x] Renamed `window.dataURLtoBlob` to `window.dataURLToBlobSync` to both fix
the strange `camelCase` as well as to highlight that this operation is
synchronous and therefore blocks the user thread.
- [x] Normalize all JPEG MIME types to `image/jpeg`, eliminating the
invalid `image/jpg`.
- [x] Add `npm run test-modules` command for testing non-browser specific
CommonJS modules.
- **Stretch Goals**
- [ ] ~~Restrict `autoOrientImage` to `Blob` to narrow API interface.~~ Do
this once we use PureScript.
- [ ] ~~Return non-JPEGs as no-op from `autoOrientImage`.~~ Skipping
`autoOrientImage` for non-JPEGs altogether.
- [ ] Retroactively auto-orient existing JPEG image attachments in the
background.

decide to auto-orient legacy attachments.

Implement attachment process version
Instead of keeping track of last normalization (processing) date, we now
keep track of an internal processing version that will help us understand
what kind of processing has already been completed for a given attachment.
This will let us retroactively upgrade existing attachments.
As we add more processing steps, we can build a processing pipeline that can
convert any attachment processing version into a higher one,
e.g. 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7.

as string.
The module uses a named export as refactoring references of modules with
`default` (`module.exports`) export references can be error-prone.

of unread messages. Since a different icon file is needed for each
possible number of unread messages, but this number is clearly
unbounded, only the numbers from 1 to 9 are provided. If there are 10 or
more unread messages, a single badge (depicted as "9+") is used.
Resolves#1917
We've simplified; HTTPS_PROXY or https_proxy is used for all requests.
We also require that only our self-signed certificates are used for
secure traffic. That rules out all SSL-terminating MITM proxies, since
we don't trust their root certificate.
Once we're sure that this system works for people, we'll improve config
on MacOS and Windows.
We pull proxy settings from environment variables:
- HTTPS_PROXY for sending, profile pulls, and attachment download/upload
- WSS_PROXY for connecting to the websocket for receiving messages
- ALL_PROXY to provide one server for both
More details on our proxy handling:
- https://github.com/Rob--W/proxy-from-env#environment-variables
- https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-proxy-agent
This is the natural way of things for Linux. My understanding is that
most proxies on MacOS are system-wide and transparent, so it's not so
urgent. But Windows will likely require further UI for configuration.
Will need to do some testing with Windows users.
* Emoji: Ensure that all clicks work by using emoji data directly
* Eliminate a number of unused emoji images from final build
* Re-add the generic sheets directory, which we partially filter
* Add emoji button and popup panel
This integrates a simple third party emoji panel with a few css overrides to
correct some relative paths and colors.
The trickiest thing about this is ensuring we don't break the layout, which is
acheived through precise control over the panel's height, and prodigious calls
to updateMessageFieldSize.

* Move paperclip button to the right of the microphone
This makes our bottom-bar button arrangement more comfortable and consistent
with Android.

* A few visual tweaks to reduce visual complexity of emoji panel
- No gray buffer on the right side of the emoji panel
- No gray buffer between message compose text box and emoji window
- The scroll bar for the emojis is the same as our normal scrollbars
* Use node-fetch instead of xhr
* Remove XMLHttpRequest.js
// FREEBIE
* Avoid calling json() on non json responses
Previously we would catch and swallow JSON parsing errors resulting from an
empty response, though empty responses are normal from a few endpoints, like
requesting sms or voice registration codes.
Since the JSON parsing call is now handled internally by node-fetch, we have to
keep closer track of our expected response type to avoid throwing an exception.

* Add setting to hide menu bar
Add a setting in the themes section to hide the menu bar.
The menu bar is not needed in everyday use and might not fit in with
signals dark theme. The hidden menu bar can still be shown by pressing
alt.
autoHideMenuBar is added to windowConfig and saved and restored on
startup to prevent flickering.
* Trigger events only when related setting changes
Set the event to trigger on instanciation of the view.
Notification settings no longer reapply the theme or menu bar settings.
* Save window state when closing the window
When not moving or resizing the window, no BrowserWindow config would be
created and saved.
* Ensure that our preload.js setImmediate call finds right function
FREEBIE
* Our own socket close event, better logging, unregistration
FREEBIE
* Return CLOSED for NetworkStatusView if we've fully disconnected
* background.js: Remove messageReceiver = null, log in connect()
A null messageReciever makes the NetworkStatusView think we're online.

- Logging is available in main process as well as renderer process, and
entries all go to one set of rotating files. Log entries in the
renderer process go to DevTools as well as the console. Entries from
the main process only show up in the console.
- We save three days of logs, one day per file in %userData%/logs
- The 'debug' object store is deleted in a new database migration
- Timestamps and level included in the new log we generate for publish
as well as the devtools
- The bunyan API is exposed via windows.log (providing the ability to
log at different levels, and save objects instead of just text), so we
can move our code to it over time.

* Add certificate pinning on https service requests
Make https requests to the server using node apis instead of browser apis, so we
can specify our own CA list, which contains only our own CA.
This protects us from MITM by a rogue CA.
As a bonus, this let's us drop the use of non-standard ports and just use good
ol' default 443 all the time, at least for http requests.
// FREEBIE
* Make certificateAuthorities an option on requests
Modify node-based xhr implementation based on driverdan/node-XMLHttpRequest,
adding support for setting certificate authorities on each request.
This allows us to pin our master CA for requests to the server and cdn but not
to the s3 attachment server, for instance. Also fix an exception when sending
binary data in a request: it is submitted as an array buffer, and must be
converted to a node Buffer since we are now using a node based request api.
// FREEBIE
* Import node-based xhr implementation
Add a copy of https://github.com/driverdan/node-XMLHttpRequest@86ff70e, and
expose it to the renderer in the preload script.
In later commits this module will be extended to support custom certificate
authorities.
// FREEBIE
* Support "arraybuffer" responseType on requests
When fetching attachments, we want the result as binary data rather than a utf8
string. This lets our node-based XMLHttpRequest honor the responseType property
if it is set on the xhr.
Note that naively using the raw `.buffer` from a node Buffer won't work, since
it is a reuseable backing buffer that is often much larger than the actual
content defined by the Buffer's offset and length.
Instead, we'll prepare a return buffer based on the response's content length
header, and incrementally write chunks of data into it as they arrive.
// FREEBIE
* Switch to self-signed server endpoint
* Log more error info on failed requests
With the node-based xhr, relevant error info are stored in statusText and
responseText when a request fails.
// FREEBIE
* Add node-based websocket w/ support for custom CA
// FREEBIE
* Support handling array buffers instead of blobs
Our node-based websocket calls onmessage with an arraybuffer instead of a blob.
For robustness (on the off chance we switch or update the socket implementation
agian) I've kept the machinery for converting blobs to array buffers.
// FREEBIE
* Destroy all wacky server ports

Just send an event from the main process to the renderer,
The latter routes it the appropriate view method.
For now it's a no-op unless the main window exists and it is showing the inbox,
which will be addressed in a future commit.
// FREEBIE
Just use the english locale for now. Load locale data from the
filesystem in the main process and pass it to the renderer preload
script via ipc. Note that we need the locale data to be available by the
time view scripts are loaded.
// FREEBIE
Set NODE_ENV at run time or build time to switch the app between dev and
production modes.
At build time, the current NODE_ENV will be included in the packaged
app's package.json file. At runtime we read NODE_ENV from package.json,
but also allow the local environment variable to override. A query
string parsed by a preload script exposes the value to the renderer,
which then determines whether we use the staging or production server.
Additionally, different environments have different user data
directories.
