I got a 413 (Rate limit exceeded) error from the server while fetching prekeys.
The client tried to parse the response as json since we expect json from the
prekey endpoint, which threw an exception because the response was not json.
This change prevents us from treating the response as json unless it has the
Content-Type header set accordingly.
If for some reason, the client and server disagree on whether the response
should be or is json, we'll default to treating it as text.

* Online/offline: Always stop timer, don't connect if closed
* Sockets: Send our own close event faster, shutdown only on close
Seems that we were too-aggressively disconnecting from all socket
events. Also, we should be able to send our own close event a lot
faster with no ill effects.
* Catch-up libtextsecure changes
* Use node-fetch instead of xhr
* Remove XMLHttpRequest.js
// FREEBIE
* Avoid calling json() on non json responses
Previously we would catch and swallow JSON parsing errors resulting from an
empty response, though empty responses are normal from a few endpoints, like
requesting sms or voice registration codes.
Since the JSON parsing call is now handled internally by node-fetch, we have to
keep closer track of our expected response type to avoid throwing an exception.

* Wait to manually disconnect after receiving 'offline' event
We've received Linux logs indicating that we can get offline/online
blips - only 30ms between the two events. The app was never realy
offline. So this change slows the whole disconnect process down.
* Handle offline startup: register for online event, don't connect
* Remove reload options, new file/help menus, tools/log at bottom
* Further menus refactor: install handlers at template creation
* WIP: Further tune menus, add custom about window
* New About window, new help menu items, menu labels now i18n
* Default device name on registration is now computer hostname
The OS of the device makes sense for those of us testing across a lot of
different OSes. And maybe for a user with just one desktop device. But
most users with multiple desktop devices are using the same OS for both.
* About window: Only show window when content is ready
* Fix typo in app/menu.js
* Update to the latest version of autosize.js
* gitignore: Restrict 'dist' matches to the root dist folder
The global search for 'dist' caused problems when updateing bower
components.
* A couple minor version updates: ByteBuffer, filesize, intlTel
moment-with-localse, ProtoBuf
* Add setting to hide menu bar
Add a setting in the themes section to hide the menu bar.
The menu bar is not needed in everyday use and might not fit in with
signals dark theme. The hidden menu bar can still be shown by pressing
alt.
autoHideMenuBar is added to windowConfig and saved and restored on
startup to prevent flickering.
* Trigger events only when related setting changes
Set the event to trigger on instanciation of the view.
Notification settings no longer reapply the theme or menu bar settings.
* Save window state when closing the window
When not moving or resizing the window, no BrowserWindow config would be
created and saved.
* Ensure that our preload.js setImmediate call finds right function

individual sent/delivered/read status with respect to this message, as long as
there are no errors associated with the recipient (ie, safety number changes,
user not registered, etc...) since the error icon is displayed in that case.

An immediate response to the user request to see the log, and then we
show the real data as soon as we've loaded it from disk.
Changes:
- the IPC exchange to get the log data is now async
- the API to fetch the log on the client side now returns a Promise
- in the main process, the only disk access done synchronoously is
reading the contents of the log directory. The JSON parsing of the
resultant log data is now split up into three chunks.
- We only send three keys from each log item to the renderer process:
msg, time, level. Previously we sent the entire log entry with extra
keys: hostname, pid, name.
FREEBIE
This should allow us to get an insight into auto-update behavior and
other low-level behaviors happening in the Electron process which would
be useful for debugging.
FREEBIE
This partially reverts commit 1b444a5e23.
Because support for system-level notification sound settings is inconsistent
across Win/Linux/OSX, do the simplest thing that will produce consistent
behavior on all platforms: suppress the system sound by always passing the
`silent: true` option, and play our own sound clip (copied from ios).
// FREEBIE
Without this change, there's a race condition for the notification we
show when we get the 'empty' event after a large backlog download. Four
messages may have come in, but the last might not be notified. So the
count shown would be three. And then, when the final message's notify()
call finishes, another notification would be shown.
FREEBIE
This prevents the parade of notifications if a machine wakes up from
sleep. Basically covers situations that the loading screen doesn't
already.
When disabled, notifications will be cached until they are subsequently
re-enabled, at which time all the pending notifications will be summarized.
From the background page, notifications are disabled during connection attempts
until an empty event. This means we can always safely call conversation.notify
to queue a notification for the next batch, dropping some options from message
and conversation model methods.
We've also moved the calls to check window focus and draw attention to the
window, which were previously included in the conversation model, but are now
performed by the Notification system, because the time that the notification is
displayed might be some time after the message is added by the conversation, so
decisions about focus and attention should be made in that moment and not
before.
// FREEBIE
* Disconnect from socket faster on complete loss of network access
Today we wait for a keepalive request to fail; this change forces
disconnect in the case that the browser tells us that we're now offline.
FREEBIE
* MessageReceiver: don't react to errors after explicit close()
FREEBIE
Rather than throw an error, just log call messages and drop them. This way we
distinguish them from incorrectly encoded content messages or new types of
messages we don't support yet, and don't insert unnecessary red flags and
stacktraces in debug logs.
// FREEBIE
- Logging is available in main process as well as renderer process, and
entries all go to one set of rotating files. Log entries in the
renderer process go to DevTools as well as the console. Entries from
the main process only show up in the console.
- We save three days of logs, one day per file in %userData%/logs
- The 'debug' object store is deleted in a new database migration
- Timestamps and level included in the new log we generate for publish
as well as the devtools
- The bunyan API is exposed via windows.log (providing the ability to
log at different levels, and save objects instead of just text), so we
can move our code to it over time.
FREEBIE
ConversationView responds to drag/drop events by forwarding them to its file
input. The file input stops propagation and handles the event only if the data
transfer is type file. This means that any other data type (text, img, etc...)
causes an recursive loop of event propagation, eventually resulting in logging a
"RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded".
Fix by only forwarding files to the file input.

Found a number of 'Illegal buffer' errors in an Electron log submitted

When AES-GCM authentication fails, webcrypto returns a very generic error. The
same error is thrown for invalid length inputs, but our earlier checks in
decryptProfile should rule out those failure modes and leave us safe to assume
that we either had bad ciphertext or the wrong key.

This adds a new copy:deps task into the overall default task, and it
needs to be run before running the product for the first time, and after
upgrading audio-related deps.

We know registration isn't done, but it has been done before. So instead
of sitting tight, we connect to the socket to start everything up and
attempt to the websocket once more.
FREEBIE
* Add certificate pinning on https service requests
Make https requests to the server using node apis instead of browser apis, so we
can specify our own CA list, which contains only our own CA.
This protects us from MITM by a rogue CA.
As a bonus, this let's us drop the use of non-standard ports and just use good
ol' default 443 all the time, at least for http requests.
// FREEBIE
* Make certificateAuthorities an option on requests
Modify node-based xhr implementation based on driverdan/node-XMLHttpRequest,
adding support for setting certificate authorities on each request.
This allows us to pin our master CA for requests to the server and cdn but not
to the s3 attachment server, for instance. Also fix an exception when sending
binary data in a request: it is submitted as an array buffer, and must be
converted to a node Buffer since we are now using a node based request api.
// FREEBIE
* Import node-based xhr implementation
Add a copy of https://github.com/driverdan/node-XMLHttpRequest@86ff70e, and
expose it to the renderer in the preload script.
In later commits this module will be extended to support custom certificate
authorities.
// FREEBIE
* Support "arraybuffer" responseType on requests
When fetching attachments, we want the result as binary data rather than a utf8
string. This lets our node-based XMLHttpRequest honor the responseType property
if it is set on the xhr.
Note that naively using the raw `.buffer` from a node Buffer won't work, since
it is a reuseable backing buffer that is often much larger than the actual
content defined by the Buffer's offset and length.
Instead, we'll prepare a return buffer based on the response's content length
header, and incrementally write chunks of data into it as they arrive.
// FREEBIE
* Switch to self-signed server endpoint
* Log more error info on failed requests
With the node-based xhr, relevant error info are stored in statusText and
responseText when a request fails.
// FREEBIE
* Add node-based websocket w/ support for custom CA
// FREEBIE
* Support handling array buffers instead of blobs
Our node-based websocket calls onmessage with an arraybuffer instead of a blob.
For robustness (on the off chance we switch or update the socket implementation
agian) I've kept the machinery for converting blobs to array buffers.
// FREEBIE
* Destroy all wacky server ports

If the 'empty' event is fired between the updateInbox() call and the
new InboxView() call afterwards, then the loading screen will never go
away. We fix that by immediately creating the InboxView but only adding
it to the DOM when the backing data is ready.
FREEBIE
Just send an event from the main process to the renderer,
The latter routes it the appropriate view method.
For now it's a no-op unless the main window exists and it is showing the inbox,
which will be addressed in a future commit.
