2017-11-01StateEvent; EventContent::SimpleContent; event types refactoringKitsune Ral
* StateEvent<> is a new class template for all state events. It provides a uniform interface to the state content, as well as a means to serialize the content back to JSON. In addition, StateEvent now parses the "prev_content" JSON object, so one can refer to the previous state now (a notable step to proper reflection of state changes in the displayed timeline in clients). * EventContent::SimpleContent, together with StateEvent<>, forms a generalisation for simple state events, such as room name, topic, aliases etc. that boil down to a single key-value pair. DECLARE_SIMPLE_STATE_EVENT is a macro defined to streamline creation of events based on SimpleContent, providing API back-compatibility for events defined so far. As a result, a very concise simplestateevents.h replaces all those room*event.* files. * Event/RoomEvent::fromJson() code is squeezed down to plain type lists passed to makeIfMatches() "chained factory" function template. TypeId is mandatory for an event type to be included into that factory. * Event::toTimestamp() and Event::toStringList are completely superseded by respective fromJson<>() converters.
2017-10-27Support m.room.avatar eventsKitsune Ral
The events are detected in /sync output, and avatars for rooms are loaded from respective URLs. Clients can use Room::avatar() method to request a pixmap of a certain size, and react to avatarChanged() in order to update the UI when new pixmaps/avatars arrive. avatarChanged() signal is overloaded with two tasks - the first firing merely indicates that a new avatar is available (without actual pixmap yet available) while the second firing means that an actual pixmap has arrived (all this is entirely transparent for clients, they just should update their pixmaps from Room::avatar() every time when Room::avatarChanged() is emitted).
