jschat's Issues

CSS message styling

Give the messaging a bit of a tart up

Prevent duplicate items existing in the queue

it'd be annoying if someone lines up the same thing more than once.

Randomize selected gif when giffing me

because life has a spice. And it's called variety.

Hide video

for music rooms/ swf rooms

Better notifications

It currently has the NEW! sign when you get a notification, but it would be even better if it made a noise and a favicon changed from green to red or sommat

Make it clear that the queue is waiting between songs

rather than looking the same as an empty queue.

different boards

There should be a way to change room based on the endpoint i.e /team or /tonight.

Think this may be reasonably simple with Faye's channels but I don't know

As a user I can mute the video

Mute only

Welcome page

The welcome page should be different from other rooms, and introduce chabble.

Testing Permission

A test issue to see if a non-collaborator can add an issue

UI for youtube feature

Display the dice roll requested

In addition to the result.

Messages aren't always sent after switching browser tab

You have to actively click in the message text box in order to get them to send?

Shouldnt be able to send empty messages

less fragile grabbing of youtube + tests!

Cookies should last 30 days

Currently expires with the session

Server side data sanitisation

How about we create an incoming extension that is first in the chain to filter out all unwanted HTML, scripts etc.

Add analytics

GA for standard tracking?

Also track Events on video queues with service to get an idea of which services are popular

Maybe even log messages sent and which room they are sent to so we can get a better feel for usage levels

Create permanence for created chats

About 30 of the last messages should be viewable when you log in

Show upcoming video(s) in some way

Suggestions:

1. Just the next video and who queued it.
2. List of who queued the next X videos.
3. Just a count of the number of videos in the queue.

Thoughts?

Add label to show current room

Connection to jschat sometimes get dropped.

Not sure if this is a problem or not. I noticed the following in my chrome console:

WebSocket is already in CLOSING or CLOSED state.Faye.Transport.WebSocket.Faye.extend.Faye.Class._ping @ faye.js:2
12faye.js:2 WebSocket connection to 'wss://murmuring-headland-2196.herokuapp.com/faye' failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED
faye.js:2 WebSocket connection to 'wss://murmuring-headland-2196.herokuapp.com/faye' failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED

we might need to do something that tries reconnecting after X if the connection is dropped.

Keep previous username

Store username so that it doesnt reset to Anon every time

Ability to whisper/direct message

User 'log in'

Maybe not passwords but there should be some sort of log in so you can't change your name midchat without logging out

some html links don't work with linkify

like http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hapMgcOlspk/Tzp0GNAtc-I/AAAAAAAAErg/e5BEDfDzHeg/s1600/pugs+love+hugs.jpg (because of the + signs)

Per room shared youtube channel

UI should show message sent times

At the moment it's impossible to tell if I'm talking to today people or yesterday people.

Queue priority management

I propose that the queue gets prioritized by user so that users can't fill the queue with their songs and then others have to wait for ever.

Example:
Paul adds 10 items to queue
Steve adds 2 items to queue
Oli adds 2 items to queue

Queue would be: Paul 1, Steve 1, Oli 1, Paul 2, Steve 2, Oli 2, Paul 3, Paul 4..... until someone else dropped songs in.

Thoughts?

Stop source being retrievable via web request

For example browse to
https://murmuring-headland-2196.herokuapp.com/extensions/dice-roll.js

Better would be to move everything that we want web accesible to a www\ directory and then mount file as var file = new(statix.Server)('www\');

Messages lost when Heroku deploys

Due to the local JSON file being removed on deployment. This also seems to happen when the site isnt used for a while.

We will need to look at a DB instead.

Easier way of adding items to the queue

We need to agree an implement a better way to add media to the queue.

Video time remaining

Extension triggers should all be case insensitive

Should be possible to auto gif the chat

For example typing:

gif me awesome

should go to http://giphy.com/search/awesome and put the first gif in the chat.

Project is missing tests

I like tests.

Persist play queue contents

Questions:

1. Redis again?
2. Should we persist the current song and position? Or just the upcoming songs.

Generic play queue for each room

As part of #68 we need a server side object to manage queues of items that "play" for a certain time.

Current thoughts:

For each room:

1. Top item of a queue gets pulled off. Start time is recorded.
2. Every few seconds a message will be broadcast containing:
   * the Item type
   * identifier for the queued item (i.e. youtube video id)
   * title of the item
   * play offset in seconds?
   * user who played the item
3. When the elapsed time (plus maybe some buffer) is passed return to step 1.

Client should (at least temporarily) remember videos it can't play

any forbidden video gets started again and again. The player can't start it but keeps getting signals telling it to start. Better approach would be to remember the video is banned and just display a message.

clicking back from one room to another does not bring up persisted messages

Remove simulated media request

Remove from the UI, main.js and the chatclient.

Ability to see who is currently active/logged in

feature: roomcursion me #room

typing roomcursion me #room should insert and iframe pointing to that room into the room.

Thoughts?

Hyperlink code is message with the other extensions

elipses are turned into links

for instance hello... is it me you're looking for

stop people using <script>s

Obvs the html is cool and pretty much the best thing about it, but are not cool (STEVE!) so can we prevent those

room me extention

ability to say 'room me' to get a new room

make the left-hand side of the page a frame of some kind

so that the text on the right doesn't force pictures down

Favourite rooms

I think being able to add your own favourite rooms rather than rely on recent rooms would be a much better implementation...

Limit video length that can be added
