Draft PR (only meant for review and not merge)

  • Delete data when navigating away from the room
  • Handle matrix.org edge case when it chooses to block returning events for world_readable room
  • Fix bug with not being able to render regular rooms when navigating away from unknown room (the url changes but UI doesn't change)
  • Join functionality

Bug fix with navigation is also fixed, just need to do some more testing with timeline template being rendered fine, which I am currently unable to do so as:

  • Local synapse is borked (spent time fixing it but still need to do more)
  • Matrix.org homeserver is not liking the preview at all today
  • Orbit sandbox (same restrictions as matrix.org)

I will pick this up on Monday, by either fixing my local Synapse or having a world_readable room created on orbit-sandbox with a handful of messages by someone that I can just use with my orbit-sandbox account to test the timeline template, before making the commit.

…leRoomViewModel right in the RoomViewModelObservable

create a new RoomStatus enum value for WorldReadable and utilise a promise to check whether room is previewable which first UnknownRoomViewModel uses to show UI context and then switches to WorldReadableRoomViewModel to render timeline for preview of messages

@psrpinto Do you think this is fine or it warrants the need of creating a WorldReadableRoom like ArchivedRoom just because we need to differentiate between the room instance of a regular room and WorldReadable room in RoomViewModel?

Quick update: Join functionality is now functional but I have noticed sometimes the messages don't show up after joining the room. It worked fine in Chrome, atleast in the last few attempts but in Firefox I just get an empty room with no messages. Will continue to look into this more.
