Summary

When the user wants to create a thread from an edited message, we want him to see the updated content of the message.

Test Plan
  • [web & iOS] edited a message, clicked on it to create a sidebar from it, I can see updated content,
  • [web] on the pending thread route refreshed site, checked how it behaves: it just redirects to the main thread.

These two can be combined to reduce one array pass. Note that the callback you pass to useSelector will be executed any time any data in Redux changes, so it's a good idea to prioritize performance here

(Flow needs the Boolean pass to be separate however)

This isn't exactly identical, but I think it works here

Personally I think this condition is more clear if you start by checking message.type, since most message types don't have message.targetMessageID

Removed 'Edited' label from the pending thread to match D7141 changes

This is a very expensive calculation, since you go through every single message in the MessageStore for this thread

As mentioned above:

Note that the callback you pass to useSelector will be executed any time any data in Redux changes

I think it would be good here to pull this out of the useSelector, and put it in a useMemo below. That way, if the underlying data (containingThread.messageIDs?) doesn't change, then the calculation will not have to be run again

I'm not sure this is possible in this case, but I suspect it is. Can you think of a good useMemo we can pull out of this?

In the codebase we typically do import * as React from 'react'; and then do React.useMemo here
