Protocol and handling is all analogous to contact sync: Multiple
GroupDetails structs are packed into a single attachment blob and parsed
on our end. We don't display the synced groups in the conversation list
until a new message is sent to one of them.
// FREEBIE
Initializing a message receiver opens the socket and starts listening
right away rather than requiring a separate call to connect. The only
other publicly accessible method is to query the socket status.
// FREEBIE
Update protobuf definitions and refactor message receive and decrypt
codepath to support new protocol, including various flavors of sync
messages (sent messages, contacts, and groups).
Also cleans up background.js and lets libtextsecure internalize
textsecure.processDecrypted and ensure that it is called before handing
DataMessages off to the application.
The Envelope structure now has a generic content field and a
legacyMessage field for backwards compatibility. We'll send outgoing
messages as legacy messages, and sync messages as "content" while
continuing to support both legacy and non-legacy messages on the receive
side until old clients have a chance to transition.
* Session records are now opaque strings, so treat them that way:
- no more cross checking identity key and session records
- Move hasOpenSession to axolotl wrapper
- Remote registration ids must be fetched async'ly via protocol wrapper
* Implement async AxolotlStore using textsecure.storage
* Add some db stores and move prekeys and signed keys to indexeddb
* Add storage tests
* Rename identityKey storage key from libaxolotl25519KeyidentityKey to
simply identityKey, since it's no longer hardcoded in libaxolotl
* Rework registration and key-generation, keeping logic in libtextsecure
and rendering in options.js.
* Remove key_worker since workers are handled at the libaxolotl level
now
Encapsulate the websocket resources and socket setup process in a
friendly OO class. The MessageReceiver constructor expects an instance
of EventTarget on which to fire message events asynchronously. The
provider of the EventTarget can then add/remove listeners as desired.
Ground work for a smoother registration flow. Overall UX still needs
some polish but at least now we can have a progress gif or animation or
whatever. Also adds the phonenumber-confirmation step as a simple alert
box, which will be replaced with a nice dialogue in a later commit.
We'd like to live in a world where we can retry all the pending
conflicts in a conversation as a batch, which means we don't want to
wipe the identity key before processing each message. Thus, remove that
step from these handlers and encapsulate in a method on the conversation
model.
Ensure that both tryAgain functions return promises, allowing the
application to take appropriate action in the result of success or
failure. This lets us remove all dependency from libtextsecure on
app-level constructs like message objects/ids and the `extenion.trigger`
function.
Corresponding frontend changes to follow in another commit.
1. Return the value returned by the registered function, to expose the
underlying promise to the caller.
2. Stop accepting extra arguments to the replay function. The caller
should be able to do what they want with the returned promise instead.
3. Add a timestamp argument to the outgoing case, needed to re-try
sending a message.
Let libaxolotl throw a generic error instead of a replayable error, and
add an helper function in libtextsecure's axolotl_wrapper to catch and
convert from the generic error to the replayable one. This allows the
ReplayableError to remain a libtextsecure-level concept only.
Somewhat unrelatedly, but nearby, fix some whitespace and add missing
semicolon.
Now with actual malloc/free implementations. Had to drop back to -O1
optimization because the ed25519 signature test broke with -O2. :(
Closes#153
The toolchain install and build process, for reference:
```
wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/mozilla-games/emscripten/releases/emsdk-portable.tar.gz
tar xvfz emsdk-portable.tar.gz
cd emsdk-portable
./emsdk update
./emsdk install latest
./emsdk activate latest
source ./emsdk_env.sh
cd ../TextSecure-Browser
grunt build
```
Turns out we can get ABNORMAL_CODE (1006) for disconnects where (for
instance) we pause the background page too long. However, in these cases
there is no preceeding ErrorEvent. In contrast, when we have bad
authentication credentials, there is an ErrorEvent. Thus, this change
ensures that we only reconnect if there was no Error.
Closes#173
Previously, in the event of a failed websocket auth, we would attempt to
reconnect once a second ad infinitum. This changeset ensures that we
only reconnect automatically if the socket closed 'normally' as
indicated by the code on the socket's CloseEvent. Otherwise, show a
'Websocket closed' error on the inbox view.
Ideally we would show a more contextual error (ie, 'Unauthorized'), but
unfortunately the actual server response code is not available to our
code. It can be observed in the console output from the background page,
but programmatically, we only receive the WebSocket CloseEvent codes
listed here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CloseEvent#Status_codes
The websocket error message is displayed by a normally-hidden but ever
present socket status element. Clicking this element will immediately
refresh the background page, which will try again to open the websocket
connection.
When sending an constrct a copy of the PushMessageContent protobuf, add
a SyncMessageContext, and send it to ourselves. Do this for all kinds of
group messages, and individual text/media messages, but not closeSession
messages as the latter are device-specific.
Do not sync messages if we are the primary device, which should only be
supported in development. Normal web clients must be paired with a
android or ios master device, and even in dev, a primary/standalone web
client does not support linking additional devices.
