Breaking Changes
The default persistent store, set via the persistent_store,
is now IndexedDB. This main advantage of using IndexedDB is that it doesn't
have a fixed size limit. We don't provide a tool to migrate data from
localStorage to IndexedDB. For almost all data this is not a problem since
the data can be fetched again from the XMPP server. However,
decrypted OMEMO messages cannot be fetched again from the server, since the
double ratchet makes it impossible to again decrypt them. This means your
decrypted OMEMO history will be lost in the transition.
The afterMessageBodyTransformed and beforeMessageBodyTransformed events now has a different signatures.
When leaving a MUC, the message history is deleted. This means that decrypted
OMEMO messages are gone and cannot be recovered on that device. See muc_clear_messages_on_leave.
Removed events:
- bookmarkViewsInitialized
- chatBoxInsertedIntoDOM
- contactStatusMessageChanged
- messageSend (use sendMessage instead)
- rosterGroupsFetched
The chatBoxClosed, chatBoxMaximized and chatBoxMinimized events now have the model as
payload and not the view.
The api.chatviews and api.roomviews API groupings and methods have been
removed. The original "views" don't really exist anymore, the UI is now composed web
components which should update reactively based on changes made on the models.

- Note: due to a bug in the webpack config, the webfonts directory isn't copied over from ./sass to ./dist when you build
your own distribution files. As a workaround, you can just copy it over manually.
For Converse 6.0.0:
Breaking changes
- The debug configuration option has been replaced with loglevel. loglevel.
- In contrast to sessionStorage and localStorage, IndexedDB is an asynchronous database. A lot of code that relied on database access to be synchronous had to be updated to work with asynchronous access via promises.
- In order to add support for XEP-0156, the XMPP connection needs to be created only once we know the JID of the user that's logging in. This means that the connectionInitialized event now fires much later than before. Plugins that rely on connectionInitializedbeing triggered before the user's JID has been provided will need to be updated.
- The following API methods now return promises:
- _converse.api.chats.get
- _converse.api.chats.create
- _converse.api.rooms.get
- _converse.api.rooms.create
- _converse.api.roomviews.close
- Changes the events:
- The chatBoxInitialized event now triggers when a _converse.ChatBox (not the view) is opened.
- Renamed the old chatBoxInitialized to chatBoxViewInitialized and trigger only for ChatBoxView instances.
- Renamed chatRoomOpened event to chatRoomViewInitialized
- The order of certain events have now changed: statusInitialized is now triggered after initialized and connected and reconnected.
- _converse.api.chats.get() now only returns one-on-one chats, not the control box or headline notifications.
- The show_only_online_users setting has been removed.
- _converse.api.alert.show is now _converse.api.show and instead of taking an integer for the type, "info", "warn" or "error" should be passed in.
- The converse-headline plugin has been split up into converse-headlines and converse-headlines-view.
5.0.5 Release 1 -- November 20, 2019
- #21: upgrade to converse.js 5.0.5, which includes these changes:
- Prevent editing of sent file uploads.

- #1733: New message notifications for a minimized chat stack on top of each other.
- #1757: Chats are hidden behind the controlbox on mobile.
- #1760: Private messages no longer received after websocket reconnect.
5.0.4 Release 1 -- October 8, 2019
- #19: upgrade to converse.js 5.0.4, which includes these changes:
For Converse 5.0.4:
- New config option allow_message_corrections which, if set to last, limits editing of sent messages to the last message sent.
- Bugfix: Don't treat every duplicate message ID as a message correction; since some clients don't use globally unique ID's this causes false positives.
- Bugfix: process stanzas from mam one-by-one in order to correctly process message receipts
- #1712 TypeError: plugin._features is not a function
- #1714 Don't notify the user in case we're receiving a message delivery receipt only
- #1739 New config option assets_path which lets you set the path from which "chunks" are loaded.
For Converse 5.0.3:
- Emit chatBoxFocused and chatBoxBlurred events for emoji picker input
- SECURITY FIX: Reject unencapsulated forwarded messages, since we don't support XEP-0297 on its own
For Converse 5.0.2:
- po translations files are now loaded via Webpack. As a result the locales_url config option is now removed given that the path to the locale JSON files is now determined by the webpack config and can't be changed at runtime.
- The JSON representing emojis is now fetched asynchronously as a separate file converse.emojis.js.
- Webpack is now configured with a publicPath set to /dist/. This is necessary so that chunks (such as the emojis and locales JSON files) can be fetched asynchronously. This means that all your assets need to be served at /dist. If you need to set a different path, you'll need to set publicPath in webpack.config.js to your preferred path and then rebuild all assets (e.g. make dist).
- Use listenTo to avoid memory leaks when views get removed.
- SECURITY FIX: Ignore MAM chat messages not sent from yourself
- #1692 Bugfix: TypeError: oldest_message is undefined
- #1704 SECURITY FIX: Impersonation by misusage of groupchat carbons
- #1705 Bugfix: this.roomspanel is undefined after hibernating

- Reconnect if the server doesn't respond to a ping within 10 seconds.
- Don't query for MAM MUC messages before the cached messages have been restored (another cause of duplicate messages).
- Show an error message and option to retry when fetching of the MAM archive times out
- Bugfix: TypeError: o.getAttribute is not a function converse-chatview.js (can cause messages to not appear).
For Converse 5.0.0:
- BOSH support has been moved to a plugin.
- Support for XEP-0410 to check whether we're still present in a room

- Geo-URIs (e.g. from Conversations) are now replaced by links to openstreetmap (works in reverse also)
- Add a checkbox to indicate whether a trusted device is being used or not.
- If the device is not trusted, sessionStorage is used and all user data is deleted from the browser cache upon logout.
- If the device is trusted, localStorage is used and user data is cached indefinitely.
- Initial support for XEP-0357 Push Notifications, specifically registering an "App Server".
- Add support for logging in via OAuth (see the oauth_providers setting)
Bugfixes
- Spoiler messages didn't include the message author's name.

- #1026 Typing in MUC shows "Typing from another device"
- #1039 Multi-option data form elements not shown and saved correctly
- #1143 Able to send blank message
API changes
- _converse.api.vcard.get now also accepts a Backbone.Model instance and has an additional force parameter to force fetching the vcard even if it has already been fetched.
- New API method _converse.api.vcard.update.
- The contactStatusChanged event has been renamed to contactPresenceChanged and a event presenceChanged is now also triggered on the contact.
- _converse.api.chats.open and _converse.api.rooms.open now returns a Presence which resolves with the Backbone.Model representing the chat object.
UI changes
- #956 Conversation pane should show my own identity in pane header
- The UI is now based on Bootstrap4 and Flexbox is used extensively.
- Fontawesome 5 is used for icons.
- User Avatars are now shown in chat messages.
Configuration changes
- Removed the storage configuration setting, use trusted instead.
- Removed the use_vcards configuration setting, instead VCards are always used.
- Removed the xhr_custom_status and xhr_custom_status_url configuration settings. If you relied on these settings, you can instead listen for the statusMessageChanged event and make the XMLHttpRequest yourself.
- Removed xhr_user_search in favor of only accepting xhr_user_search_url as configuration option.
- xhr_user_search_url has to include the ? character now in favor of more flexibility. See example in the documentation.
- The data returned from the xhr_user_search_url must now include the user's jid instead of just an id.
- New configuration settings nickname and auto_join_private_chats.
Architectural changes
- Extracted the views from converse-muc.js into converse-muc-views.js and where appropriate moved methods from the views into the models/collections. This makes MUC possible in headless mode.
- Created a new core plugin converse-roster.js which contains the models for roster-related data. Previously this code was in converse-core.js.
- VCards are now stored separately from chats and roster contacts.
Other
- Support for OTR (off-the-record) encryption has been dropped.
