This patch concerns the Telegram integration. Currently, we always try
to process commands when we receive a hook from Telegram. To do so we
rely on the `text` parameters from a Telegram message but the
API documentation tells us this parameters is actually optional. It
means sometimes it’s not present in the payload we receive but we still
try to access it resulting in a crash.
This patch addresses the issue by simply returning early from the
`#process_command` method when `text` is missing from the payload since
we don’t have anything to process then.
This commit centralizes 'display name' generation into a helper, and updates it to respect core preferences for `enable_names` and `prioritize_username_in_ux`.
We were using the internal UID of the channel in the hint, which would then fail to match any 'channel' configs in Discourse (which use the human-friendly `#channel` format). This was causing automatic threading for transcripts to fail.
This allows for the discourse automation plugin to have a "Send Slack
Message" script.
The script fields are a message, url, and slack channel. This will allow
for a custom slack message to be posted but can link back to an
arbitrary url (hopefully a discourse url) like a list of unanswered
topics instead of strictly only allowing a slack message that links back
to a Discourse Post object.
When notifications about a topic are posted to multiple slack channels, and the Discourse channels are configured to "thread" the notifications, each channel will have a different thread_id. Previously we were only storing a single slack thread id per Discourse topic. This commit fixes that logic, so that threads in different channels are tracked separately.
Once configured, this adds a new item to the context menu of slack messages. When clicked, the menu item will generate a transcript and present the user with a custom "Post to Discourse" modal. This provides the same functionality as the existing slash-command interface, but is much more user friendly.
- Fix multi-line code blocks
- Add strikethrough support
- Fix HTML entities inside code blocks
- Do not process formatting inside code blocks
- Ensure links are never created with no URL
- Replace - with _ in emoji names
- Stop using `break` in a block - it doesn't work. The failure here was hidden because it was within a `defer` block, so would not cause a server error
- Refactor the error handling so that the error is passed back to Slack and displayed to the user
- Return specific error messages for user / message-history / message errors
- Tidy up the SlackCommandController to make all non-requestable methods private
- Add a test to ensure error messages are passed correctly to Slack
The `site_setting_changed` event passes the setting name as a symbol, not a string. This commit also removes the backwards-compatible `site_setting_saved` event, which was deprecated in 2.3.0.
When creating a new Discourse post from slack with the `post` feature, record the
slack `ts` thread ID for the resulting topic post using an HTML comment to pass
the `ts` through.
When notifying slack of new Discourse posts, record the slack `ts` thread ID in
the post's topic if it has not yet been recorded. (Normally, this will be done
for the topic post, except where notifications are being posted for old topics
before this feature was created.)
Add a new rule filter `thread` which posts threaded responses to slack if there
is a `ts` recorded for the post topic.
Modify the `trigger_notifications` interface to enable other integrations to
implement similar functionality.
Present the `thread` rule in the help text and admin UI only for the slack
providers.
