Various smaller fixes on sliding-sync for elem-x:
- Infrastructure and smoke test only for integration testing sliding-sync
- Expose Pop and Clear on VecDiff
- Expose adding views during sliding sync live runtime incl integration tests
- bug fix on replacing only in-window-items in the insert-code (was leading to a wrong list setting), including integration test
- Don't actually fire off a request when the top of the timeline has
already been reached
- Allow making multiple requests without removing the loading indicator
in between
It's not a hard-and-fast-rule that Javascript exceptions should be `Error`
instances, but it's certainly a convention, and one that is going to reduce
surprises if we follow.
Add a second full-sync-up mode to sliding sync. Previously - and still the default for backwards compatibility, but now named `PagingFullSync` - was to page through the list by the page-size, de-validating the previous page of items. The newly added `GrowingFullSync` instead grows the window by the given number `batch_size` per request, starting and keeping it from `0`. In the latter we might be pushing more data over the connection and are slightly slower, but the top always stays active and thus reactive to changes.
Furthermore the developer can now configure an optional maximum number to grow/paginate the full-sync up to (so stopping before actually having reached `count` whatever is smaller). This is already exposed via FFI, too.
- [x] add new full-sync-mode
- [x] add limited sync-up mode (similar to full sync but only to a limit `n`)
- [x] implement sync-up in jack-in
Sliding Sync updates
- expose timeline listener via FFI on slidingsyncroom, too - returning a stoppable spawn
- connect room timeline and sliding-sync-room timeline together
- increase HTTP timeout on jack-in
- add jack-in support for actual timeline items.
`open_with_db` also has the passphrase parameter without mentioning it
in its name. The old name also sounded like the passphrase was required
when it's actually optional.
Clarify that the JSON-encoded `toDeviceEvents` passed to
`OlmMachine.receiveSyncChanges` must be the list of events themselves,
instead of a wrapper object that contains the event list.
