Removed the header when inside a room to maximize space for the camera
gallery. Settings are now accessible via the options menu.
It aligns the design with common video conference tools as meet,
or jitsi. @manuhabitela was aligned with this change.
I am not hundred percent sure it respects @manuhabitela's guidelines,
but for the options menu, I would need to trigger a dialog in a controlled way.
I tried to have the minimal impact on the existing settings dialog.
Replaced the existing settings button with a new `OptionsButton` component.
This new component integrates a menu for more actions, providing an
extensible and accessible interface.
Refactoring will follow to enhance code maintainability.
A legacy style was introduced to keep visual coherence with the other controls
from the controls bar. It's temporary, until we redesign the whole bar.
It doesn't match pixel-perfect the legacy styles.
A new public Tchap chan was created. All users, and not only beta users,
can now join it using the link in the menu, and reach us.
Localized video conference controls to match the selected language.
Previously, controls were always in English, causing confusion for French users.
A full refactor of the controls is planned soon.
Same approach as the previous commit. Few elements were not exposed
by the LiveKit package, and I had to duplicate them. Let's see if
we can asap get rid off all this complexity.
Basically, duplicate LiveKit code to start iterating on their
components, not sure wether it's the optimal strategy, but at least
we will be more agile, shipping small features which are lacking.
Added CI job to run linting and formatting checks in the frontend
codebase. Please note, we should cache frontend dependencies,
to avoid re-installing them. Future improvement!
Ran Prettier on the entire codebase to fix formatting issues. My IDE was
previously misconfigured, causing most of these errors. The IDE configuration
has been corrected.
Following @manuhabitela's recommendation, we've decided to switch
from Yarn to npm for managing our Node.js dependencies. This update
aligns all remaining parts of the codebase that were still using
Yarn to now utilize npm.
I added an example in the documentation to ensure we remember to upgrade the
frontend image during the release process. This will help prevent any issues
related to outdated images when deploying new versions.
(I did this mistake while releasing)
Enhanced the error screen to support customizable titles and descriptions.
Allows for more detailed and informative error messages for users.
By default, the error screen displays a standard heading. You can
now pass custom title and body content to provide additional context
and clarity.
Attempt to create a room using a mutation if the fetch query fails.
If the mutation succeeds, update the fetch query data to ensure
it is up-to-date.
I tried to reproduce kind of a ‘get or create’ mechanism.
Due to the removal of the 'onError' prop in React Query, it is recommended
to use useEffect for handling such event propagation.
Regarding status handling, the fetch status takes priority over the mutation.
The mutation should only be called if the fetch has failed.
I'll need this key to sync data when the mutation responds successfully.
This is a preliminary refactoring; the mutation will be added
in upcoming commits.
Enabling logs by default in clients during production feels insecure.
Therefore, I have silenced all LiveKit logs.
This might pose a challenge if we need to debug a user in the future,
but currently, we don’t require these logs.
Additionally, my utils file and function work as intended,
though there is room for improvement.
With unregistered rooms being now forbidden, we need to call create a room
in our Django db to get an access token.
Clicking on the 'Create room' will create a new entry using a Post request.
The output serialized already contains an access token to the LiveKit server,
thus we won't need to run the useQuery hook when navigating to the room.
/!\ this modification now prevent authenticated users to create rooms
by simply navigating to it. It'll be fixed in the upcoming commits.
Require users to create a room in the database
before requesting a LiveKit token.
If user request an access token for a room that doesn't
exist in our db, its request would end in a 404 error.
Ensure that rooms must be registered by a user before they can be accessed.
By default, all created rooms remain public, allowing anonymous users to join
any room created by a logged-in user.
However, anonymous users cannot create rooms themselves.
I have set up distinct namespaces for each environment. You can now push
events to the development namespace without affecting production data.
Please note that these keys are not 'secret'. They will also be configured
in the browser SDK, which is inherently insecure. The documentation does not
specify a secure storage method for these keys.
In this commit, we'll integrate a third-party service to track user events.
We start by using the `identify` method to track sign-ins and sign-ups.
Additionally, we use the `track` method to monitor custom events such as room
creation, access token generation, and logouts. This will provide us with
valuable data on current usage patterns.
The analytics library operates by opening a queue in a separate thread for
posting events, ensuring it remains non-blocking for the API. Let's test
this in a real-world scenario.
Add a new property 'email_anonymized' to the User model,
to allow tracking a user's email without any personal data.
In fact, we're dealing with professional data, thus it shouldn't
be subject to the GDPR, however I prefer taking extra care
when working with potentially first and last names.
I've chosen June, a closed project, for our product analysis. Please note that
this is temporary until we find our product-market fit and achieve
significant traction.
I selected June for several reasons, particularly their focus on pre-product-
market fit (PMF) analysis, which is crucial for us. Their approach will help us
track user engagement and identify the most important features.
Remember, the purpose of this data is not to provide definitive answers about
our product, but to prompt us to ask the right questions and engage with users
to find the answers.
Close issue #91. Each <li> element in a list should have a unique key
to avoid React warnings.
Added unique keys to 'popover' items. Although the 'lang' keys are generated
by i18n dependencies and are expected to be unique, this implementation
ensures keys are unique and not based on indexes.
Removing the __init__.py makes it impossible for Pylint to get the sources
to lint from the root folder. We manually set all the paths pylint will lint.
That's not a big deal, as we'll remove Pylint any soon to rely only on ruff.
I took inspiration from marsha or magnify project.
I removed the now useless bash script to run Pylint command. It saves us
wrapper! Plus, having a lint command running with different option locally
and in the CI was quite a pain.
Locally linter was running on diff files; Fixed! CI and make command has now
the same behavior.
Recent updates in dependencies broke the tests.
I am in a rush, I found a stack overflow discussion mentionning we should
NOT consider the root folder of a Django project as a Python package.
My issue was:
Model class app.core.models.User doesn't declare an explicit app_label
and isn't in an application in INSTALLED_APPS.
Removing the __ini__.py file at the root folder fixed the regression.
Recent updates of dev/ruff and dev/pylint dependencies led
to new linting warnings.
Pylint 3.2.0 introduced a new check `possibly-used-before-assignment`,
which ensures variables are defined regardless of conditional statements.
Some if/else branches were missing defaults. These have been fixed.
Previously each route rendered its whole layout from a to z.
Now each route updates a single common wrapper when the layout changes
between pages.
Also the Loading, Error, UserFetched, QueryAware code is more explicit
and understandable.
This introduces valtio as dependency, allowing us to deal with global
state easily in a svelte/vue way (reactive mutable state). This limits
the boilerplaty-ness of immutable state lib approaches, while keeping
rendering optimization better than homemade react contexts.
we query user at load and keep info for a while, way less than user
session anyway. will need to check if we could get de-sync (like loading
the frontend with backend user session ending in 30 minutes while we
don't check user state until an hour)
