Instead of relying on all parts of the application to construct both
HTML and plain-text responses, we now construct only HTML responses,
and convert the HTML to plain text right before sending the message to
Matrix.
This is a first iteration, because the plain text has a few extra
newlines than it should, created by use of nested <p> tags.
This upgrade introduces a handful of breaking changes in the Rust
Matrix SDK.
- Some types have disappeared and changed name.
- Some functions are no longer async.
- Room display name now has a Result type instead of just returning
the value.
- Client state store has breaking changes (not really a big deal).
This required introduction of a new type to store room information
that we are interested in on the context struct. This new RoomContext
is required mostly due to unit tests, because it is no longer possible
to instantiate the Room type in the Matrix SDK.
The database API for user variables has changed somewhat again, this
time closer to the proper vision. There are now two separate sled
Trees in the Variables struct, one for user-defined variables, and one
for counts. Keys have been changed to be username-first, then room ID.
The signatures of the functions now also use a strongly-typed struct,
UserAndRoom.
As part of this, the Context object now once again avoids allocating
new strings.
Other random changes included here:
- Remove tempfile crate in favor of sled temporary db config.
- Add bincode crate in anticipation of future (de)serializing.
