## Ticket
1329
The existing nudge to refresh the webpage only happens when the app cannot find the specific javascript file in the server. As we don't purge the files on each build, the browser typically uses the cached version of the app, which could be weeks behind (based on the error logs).
## Approach
Poll the current version periodically (set to 1 hour for now) and invoke the nudge when a newer version is detected.
We typically don't need to bump `MINIMUM_VERSION` unless there is an urgent need to make users move away from older versions (e.g. API changes, mistakes, etc.)
## Trade-offs
Wanted to put the value in a separate file called `.min.version` so that the env's history won't be polluted with version bumps, but not sure how to implement with minimal code without having to read from the file. Getting from the env is the easiest to implement (per my limited knowledge).
- Add ability to store `entries` into Redux.
- Sync to redux in the same interval as when playing position is saved (re-use timer).
- On startup, send any stashed entries and clear them.
* Redesign threadline and fetching state
- threadline goes right below channel avatar, mimicking reddits implementation, has a increase effect on hover and is slimmer, creating more space for comments on screen
- fetching state now replaces show/hide button, also mimicking reddit, and now says that it is loading, instead of a blank spinner, and also improves space a bit
* Redesign comment threads
- Allow for infinite comment chains
- Can go back and forth between the pages
- Can go back to all comments or to the first comment in the chain
- Some other improvements, which include:
- add title on non-drawer comment sections (couldn't see amount of comments)
- fix Expandable component (would begin expanded and collapse after the effect runs, which looked bad and shifted the layout, now each comments greater than the set length begins collapsed)
- used constants for consistency
* Fix replying to last thread comment
* Fix buttons condition (only on fetched comment to avoid deleted case)
* Fix auto-scroll
* Bring back instant feedback for Show More replies
* Improve thread back links
- Now going back to all comments links the top-level comment for easier navigation
- Going back to ~ previous ~ now goes back into the chain instead of topmost level
* Clear timeouts due to unrelated issue
* Fix deep thread linked comment case and more scroll improvements
* More minor changes
* Flow
* Fix commentList tile style
* Fix long channel names overflowing on small screens
* More scroll changes
* Fix threadline
* Revert "Fix long channel names overflowing on small screens"
This reverts commit e4d2dc7da5861ed8136a60f3352e41a690cd4d33.
* Fix replies fetch
* Revert "Fix replies fetch"
This reverts commit ec70054675a604a7a5f3764ba07c36bf7b0f49c8.
* Cleanup and make smooth
* Always use linked comment on threads
* Cleanup
* Higlight thread comment
* Fix comment body styles
Ticket: 1079 Support geoblocking channels/videos
## Changes
- Replaced the .env version with iapi version.
- Includes 'videos' blocking and custom messages.
Currently, homepages are still build as part of the app, so this change doesn't bring much benefit other than to support the wrapper app.
When the service is moved away from the app, we won't have to rebuild the app when homepages change, and also the ui.js bundle would be smaller without the need to code-split.
* Fix query selection
* Fix xml format
* Fix link url and author_url
* Refactor repeated components
* Refactor repeated embed iframe string
* Add support for passing referrer queries to src
* Change iframe id from lbry to odysee
* Improve replace logic understanding
* Fix URL

* Publish button: use spinner instead of "Publishing..."
Looks better, plus the preview could take a while sometimes.
* Refactor `doPublish`. No functional change
This is to allow `doPublish` to accept a custom payload as an input (for resuming uploads), instead of always resolving it from the redux data.
* Add doPublishResume
* Support resume-able upload via tus
## Issue
38 Handle resumable file upload
## Notes
Since we can't serialize a File object, we'll need to the user to re-select the file to resume.
* Exclude "modified date" for Firefox/Android
## Issue
It appears that the modification date of the Android file changes when selected, so that file was deemed "different" when trying to resume upload.
## Change
Exclude modification date for now. Let's assume a smart user.
* Move 'currentUploads' to 'publish' reducer
`publish` is currently rehydrated, so we can ride on that and don't need to store the `currentUploads` in `localStorage` for persistence. This would allow us to store Markdown Post data too, as `localStorage` has a 5MB limit per app.
We could have also made `webReducer` rehydrate, but in this repo, there is no need to split it to another reducer. It also makes more sense to be part of publish anyway (at least to me).
This change is mostly moving items between files, with the exception of
1. An additional REHYDRATE in the publish reducer to clean up the tusUploader.
2. Not clearing `currentUploads` in CLEAR_PUBLISH.
* Restore v1 code for livestream replay, etc.
v2 (tus) does not handle `remote_url`, so the app still needs v1 for that. Since we'll still have v1 code, use v1 for previews as well.
## Issue
211 - CSS load-order problem
## Notes
It is unlikely that we'll need to support different brands in the future, so simplifying the code and number of files so that we don't have to handle the various import paths. Will probably make things easier for the css-splitting work too.
Now, with the exception of connecting to lbry.com after re-opening the browser (i.e. establishing first connection), refreshing odysee.com is almost instantaneous.
## Issue
Closes 4501 `Font size`
## New behavior
The Desktop app can now zoom the same way as browsers:
- Zoom In: "Ctrl+=" or "Ctrl+numpadPlus" or "Ctrl+WheelUp"
- Zoom Out: "Ctrl+-" or "Ctrl+numpadMinus" or "Ctrl+WheelDown"
- Zoom Reset: "Ctrl+0" or "Ctrl+numpad0"
## Code changes
(1) Electron provides this functionality through the `zoomIn|zoomOut|resetZoom` roles in the Menu, so it would have been a quick job.
However, given that Electron currently does not support having multiple accelerators for one item, we can't add `Ctrl+WheelUp` to the mix and would have to implement our own handler and use `webFrame`.
Given that we need to add code anyways, we handle both keyboard and mouse cases through the same handler, hence the existence of `zoomWindow.js`. It also provides the opportunity to few a few quirks with Electron's default implementation (e.g. stuck at both extremes)
(2) I recall there is another Issue for adding keyboard shortcuts. Given that these shortcuts are universally used in browsers, they are probably "reserved", so shouldn't clash with that task.
