Attached patch WIP of patch (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
This WIP patch adds a button to the location bar but it does not do anything yet. Still to do: + Connect to the provider/frameworker patches + Add ability to hide/show the feature
Attached image Mockup: Recommend/share button (deleted) —
The mockup attached shows how a recommend/share button would appear in the Firefox URL bar. Its behavior is consistent with the similar functionality of Firefox’s star button. Like the star button, the recommend/share button is activated by a single click, minimizing the time a user needs to invest in sharing. If the user wishes to unshare a page or to comment on the page they’ve shared, they can click on the button a second time.
I don't really get the reason behind the button in the location. AFAIK one of Australis goal was to clean the location bar and avoid visual noise in this area (bookmark star merge outside the location bar, suppression of the dropdown arrow, etc.), so why put the recommend/like button in the location bar ?

Success of +1 / like / recommend / tweet / reddit all over articles on web , and use of social sites for just about everything. With this feature , you may not , but most of the Young internet audience would be benefited by it and "like" it. Further it makes Firefox on desktop more like Firefox on Android and on other devices. Safari and IE are including this feature in the next operating systems they are coming to. It sure has some importance that Apple and MS would like to include it :)
I know and I totally agree, but if you have read correctly what I've written my comment was about the button located in the location bar. Why here and not in a toolbar ?
The bookmark star is not a great comparison because there are other factors in play there. We currently have a bookmark star in the location bar and a bookmark sidebar button outside of the location bar. Moving the bookmark star outside of the location bar will allow us to combine both of those elements. The same cannot be said for this feature.
Thanks for the answer, but the bookmark star was just an example amongst other. The location bar should stay the more minimalistic possible in term of UI.
Attached patch WIP v.2 patch for bug (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
This patch allows the button to be clicked and remembers its state if the tab is switched and reverts on page navigation. This is still using a generic icon and generic tooltip since the social APIs haven't landed yet. IRC Conversation: > 4:28 PM <jaws> Boriss: if someone shares a page, then clicks again on the button to add a comment, they will most likely end up with two shares > 4:28 PM <jaws> i don't think that's what the user would want > 4:29 PM <Boriss> jaws: the intention of the design is not that it would end up with two shares > 4:29 PM <jaws> is it possible for us to retroactively update a share? > 4:30 PM <Boriss> to un-share and to comment? how technically hard that is i don't know, but that's what the design in the mockup conveys > 4:30 PM <michaelhanson> jaws | Boriss: I don't think we've come up with messages to convey that idea, but it is a good one. wouldn't be hard to add to the messaging API > 4:31 PM <jaws> michaelhanson, Boriss: for now i'll just concentrate on sharing without a message, since i don't know how we would pull it off today without generating two shares > 4:31 PM <michaelhanson> ok. Based on the conversation, I'm only planning on implementing the first part of Boriss' mockup in this bug. Let's push the recommend/share annotations to a followup bug when we have a deeper API.

Another option would be to show the doorhanger by default and not to send the message until the doorhanger is dismissed (via adding an annotation then hitting submit, hitting submit, or just clicking outside of it). This could also show a cancel button which would stop the submission from occurring.
The other side of this equation is the API used by providers. The current API allows the provider to change the tooltip text and the toolbar icon after a share, so, in theory, the fact a page has been shared should be fairly obvious from the UI. IF the user clicks on it again, the provider again can change the text and icon, so can do an "unshare" and reflect that new state in the UI. The other consideration is that the API does not offer a way to get content to display in a doorhanger. So with the current API, a doorhanger could really have *just* a submit button and nothing else. Obviously this could change in V2, or we could even work with our partner to change it for V1, but we are somewhat constrained by that.
In case it wasn't clear to others (as it wasn't clear to me), the first version of this button will just be a binary share/unshare feature. > <jaws> markh: based on your comment in bug 765874, should i just make the doorhanger have a "Remove/undo" button and nothing else? this is different than Boriss's mockup but obviously much easier to implement for a v1 > <Boriss> jaws: in the first iteration of this feature, it's only binary - one click on (share), one click off (unshare) > <Boriss> what's in that mockup is for v2
Summary: Implement recommend/like share button → Implement v1 of recommend/like share button
(In reply to Jared Wein [:jaws] from comment #11) > Another option would be to show the doorhanger by default and not to send > the message until the doorhanger is dismissed (via adding an annotation then > hitting submit, hitting submit, or just clicking outside of it). doorhanger is useful for notifying non-modal info. However, doorhanger has a role to ask to user about permissions in a page. I seem that doorhanger is not good for share button.
(In reply to Jared Wein [:jaws] from comment #11) > Another option would be to show the doorhanger by default I meant to say "arrow panel". Sorry for the confusion.
(In reply to Jared Wein [:jaws] from comment #15) > (In reply to Jared Wein [:jaws] from comment #11) > > Another option would be to show the doorhanger by default > > I meant to say "arrow panel". Sorry for the confusion. All right. I think it is good that show the arrow panel by default. But I don't agree that not to send the message until the arrow panel is dismissed. If a message is sent on dismissed the arrow panel, user may mistake accidentally sending a message. So it should send a message only if user clicks the "send" button.
Attached patch WIP v.3 patch for bug (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
This is an updated WIP patch for the bug. This does about as much as is possible until the backend parts are finished. TODOs are located in browser-social.js. We might remove the ability to revoke a share/recommend for v1 based on API limitations (not sure here though).

Comment on attachment 636912 [details] [diff] [review] WIP v.4 patch for bug * The 'social-recommend-button' styling in browser.css and the recommendButton.tooltip string are both still in the patch but seem unused. I guess that's just an oversight? * The '#share-button' part of the CSS should probably be removed given the images will be provided by the provider. Given we allow them to provide a completely different icon after it is shared, the 'outline' style probably isn't appropriate either. * Similarly for '#socialUserAvatar' - that probably shouldn't be in the CSS as the image will be supplied by the provider. * The 'unshare' function: ** gBrowser.selectedBrowser._locationShared = true; - should that be setting to false? ** // TODO: notify social service that share was revoked. - there is no such API at the moment, so I doubt this could be implemented this way for V1. Obviously we could talk with our partners about this, but that conversation would need to happen before we can commit to this UI for v1. * I don't understand the logic in 'onClick: function SRB_onClick'. I read it as: ** if we haven't shared this location, just set _locationShared and add a 'shared' attribute to the button - but don't tell the provider about it. ** If we have shared this location, then display the popup, telling the provider once one of the buttons in the popup has been hit. ** There doesn't seem to be any logic for hiding either of the buttons in the panel - thus, whenever the panel is shown both the editSharePopupOkButton and editSharePopupUndoButton are shown. This implies to me that (a) the user needs to click on the share button twice to see the panel, where the first one doesn't actually take any action - and that the panel doesn't reflect whether the user has or has-not already shared. * Keeping the shared state in _locationShared concerns me as, IIUC, if the user shares a page, navigates somewhere else, then hits "back" (or otherwise ends up back at the first page) we have lost the fact they shared that page. * The TODO section might be misleading: ** The stack might be tricky to do given the image comes from the provider. ** There is currently no API to notify the service that the share was revoked. All we have at the moment is the ability to tell them the button was hit - the provider then gets to choose what to do (eg, the provider can determine if the page was already shared, unshare it, then provide an icon and tooltip text which reflect the action it took.

We can't ship a recommend/share button without the ability to undo that action accessible on the button itself. This would create a very poor user experience - one misclick on any website and a user would be stuck with that action with that provider, likely viewable by others. As you said, we should be having this conversation as soon as possible.

This would create a very poor user > experience - one misclick on any website and a user would be stuck with that > action with that provider, likely viewable by others. As you said, we > should be having this conversation as soon as possible. To clarify, the current scheme does allow for the provider to "unlike" on the second click and to update the icon and tooltip text accordingly. I agree the UI for this is poor and it might not be obvious to the user that a second click will undo, but I'm just clarifying the situation. The flow with the current API looks (roughly) like: * We ask provider for tooltip text and icon - they send, eg, a "thumbs-up" icon and "Like on Amigo" * User clicks - we tell provider a click was done. They do the like. * We ask provider for text and icon again - they send an icon reflecting it has been liked and "You liked this on Amigo". * User clicks - we tell provider a click was done (same notification as above). * They notice a like was already done, so they "undo" the action. * We ask provider for text and icon again - they send the same icon and tooltip text as step 1, indicating the next click will again perform a "like". The key points are: * There is currently exactly one notification about a user click on the recommend button. * After every click, we get a *new* icon and tooltip text which should reflect the current state. * The provider themselves are responsible for tracking the current "like" state and deciding what action to take on the click.

They do the like. > * We ask provider for text and icon again - they send an icon reflecting it > has been liked and "You liked this on Amigo". This is going to look really janky from the user's perspective since it will take too long to get the response back and update the state of the icon. We should get these icons and strings in advance and just do a quick swap on the front-end side of things. > The key points are: > * There is currently exactly one notification about a user click on the > recommend button. > * After every click, we get a *new* icon and tooltip text which should > reflect the current state. Again, this will be unnecessary network traffic and slowness that can be solved by caching these assets upfront (when the provider is set) and only sending a very short request (location, title) with very short response (such as HTTP status code). Firefox should be in control here and make sure that we as a product are able to provide users an undo option. This undo option should be a two-click step since that is in line with our current undo for bookmarks. I don't think we can trust that all providers will treat a second 'share/recommend' as an undo.

The only way we can control it is to delay-send the initial click and have an undo capability prior to the provider ever getting an initial recommend signal. Personally I prefer the ui in the last share/web activities module I did, drop panel with provider content for sharing. It does leak the url to the provider soon as the button is clicked, but the user then has to "officially" share it in the providers UI.
Attached patch WIP v.5 patch for bug (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
Thanks for the feedback Mark. I went over the UX here with Boriss and she was happy with the interactions here. This is still using a property off of a browser to store the current shared/not-shared bit. Unless we get this hooked in to some persistent store (bookmarks is likely the best), then we will need to do something like this. Back-forward navigation will not reapply the state, but at the same time users should have the ability to like pages multiple times over the course of using the browser (e.g. once in October, once again in July, etc). This patch is not hooked up to a social service yet as that has yet to be implemented. To fit the current interaction model, we will need these APIs: 1) Share/recommend a page 2) Undo share/recommend 3) Address of a user's profile/account page 4) User & provider information of: --> Share tooltip text ("Bacon this") --> Shared tooltip text ("You bacon this") --> Share button graphic (require it to be 16x16) --> User avatar (require it to be 48x48) --> Logged in text (e.g., "Jared 'JAWS' Wein") --> Undo text ("Un-bacon") --> Undo accesskey ("U") --> OK label ("OK") --> OK accesskey ("O") I am also planning on writing a couple unit tests here to test the observation of the preference and the workings of the urlbar buttons with the associated panel.

There are two problems I still see with the user interaction. 1. Ctrl+Shift+L pressed. I don't get any response from my screen reader. The share converts to "shared", but this is a purely visual indication that screen readers will not be able to pick up. Solution: Create a hidden element somewhere that contains the aria-live attribute, and where you can push messages a screen reader should speak. That way, once you push the share, you can send in text that says "Page shared" or so. Screen readers will pick this up and speak it. We might need to experiment with this, since this is in XUL, and we don't have many instances of ARIA live region usages in XUL yet. Second: If I press Ctrl+Shift+L again, I'm placed inside the panel on the OK button. The "Undo button" has a label of 'un-baken', the other button has a label "Jared 'jaws' Wein" label, and I'm not sure what this one is supposed to do, and then there's another button preceeding that which has no label. I assume that this is the user avatar that allows one to go to the profile or so. So, in parts, this is OK, but needs more work. And since this is neither a denial nor an unconditional plus, I'm simply removing the feedback request.

BTW For they people who hate Social or Value Privacy will it be optional, and fully under the user's control. (Better Fully Disabled?)
It will be disabled by default. The activation will be via the provider's web site (see bug 764869) or opt-in via Firefox prefs, so if you aren't a user of the supported providers you won't see any of this functionality.

I am now keeping the button disabled until we get this message though. We may want to update the tooltips and icon when the button is disabled (not part of this patch though). > >+ panelShown: function SRB_panelShown(aEvent) { > > >+ this._sharePopupOkButton.focus(); > > Hmm, do we really want to be stealing focus like this?

I found that the focus wasn't being placed on the button, such that I could hit the space bar and trigger the default action without this. > Couldn't we use a single dynamically-updated image for these, rather than > two images with a stack? Yeah, I switched this now to just use CSS to swap which image is displayed.

Comment on attachment 640017 [details] [diff] [review] Patch v2 updateState seems to be called in a couple of places where it's unnecessary - the only thing that influences its behavior is currentBrowser._locationShared, and the calls to updateState in browser.js and in share()/unshare() take care of all the relevant cases where either currentBrowser or _locationShared can change, don't they? It can't change in response to the provider changing, or the global disabled/enabled state changing. >diff --git a/browser/base/content/browser-social.js b/browser/base/content/browser-social.js >+ dismissSharePopup: function SUI_dismissPopup() { >+ let sharePopup = document.getElementById("editSharePopup"); >+ if (sharePopup) >+ sharePopup.hidePopup(); This is called by a button in the popup, so the null check shouldn't be necessary. >+ share: function SUI_share() { >+ let currentURI = gBrowser.currentURI.clone(); >+ try { >+ // Setting userPass on about:config throws. >+ currentURI.userPass = ""; >+ } catch (e) {} >+ let url = currentURI.spec; Could add a helper for this (since it's duplicated in unshare()). >+ // Provide a11y-friendly notification of share. >+ let status = document.getElementById("share-button-status"); >+ if (status) >+ status.setAttribute("value", status.getAttribute("sharedText")); Shouldn't this be in updateState, so it can be reverted when the share is undone (or the tab is switched, new page loaded, etc.)? >+ } else { >+ let sharePopup = document.getElementById("editSharePopup"); >+ let shareButton = document.getElementById("share-button"); >+ if (sharePopup && shareButton) >+ sharePopup.openPopup(shareButton, "bottomcenter topright"); Isn't it impossible for this method to be called when the share button is hidden? >+ _providerSet: function SUI_providerSet(aData, aShareButton) { >+ let provider = JSON.parse(aData); >+ if (aShareButton) >+ aShareButton.hidden = false; If the button isn't present here (user removed URL bar), but it later gets re-added, it looks like nothing will unhide it. Seems like you need a way to keep track of the provider state globally, and check it every time the customize toolbox done event fires. Also, you need to check it for windows opened after the provider set event is fired, so that their buttons are unhidden too. Same goes for _userAccountSet - all of this global state needs to be held by Social.jsm, and checked by consumers (windows) when needed. >diff --git a/browser/modules/NewTabUtils.jsm b/browser/modules/NewTabUtils.jsm >-const Cc = Components.classes; >+const Cc = Components.classes;z oops :) >diff --git a/browser/modules/Social.jsm b/browser/modules/Social.jsm >+ observe: function Social_observe(aSubject, aTopic, aData) { >+ if (aTopic == "nsPref:changed") Still don't need to check aTopic if you're only ever passing this as a pref observer :) >+ share: function Social_share(url) { >+ Services.obs.notifyObservers(null, "social:share", null); This doesn't appear to be used?

Previous patch also doesn't seem to properly hide the button initially when the enabled pref is false. I also just realized that the _userAccountSet stuff isn't going to work, because we're not sending social.initialize yet (and so we won't receive social.ambient-notification-area). So let's remove that function and all associated code for the moment, and just have the button be active as long as there's an active provider whose getWorkerPort is non-null. We can also remove the user account name/avatar from the panel for the moment, which should simplify things. I will file a followup to get the workerAPI bits added.
(In reply to :Gavin Sharp (use gavin@gavinsharp.com for email) from comment #48) > > just have the button be active as long > as there's an active provider whose getWorkerPort is non-null. We can also > remove the user account name/avatar from the panel for the moment, which > should simplify things. The way this worked in the past, we didn't enable the button unless we got a response from the worker that it supported the button. In the case of motown, I'm not sure what it means to share a url, so until motown grows that functionality, it wouldn't have to have the button enabled. other things: I believe that setProvider and the loading of the providers should be a part of SocialService, as well SocialService should have a getter for currentProvider which returns a SocialProvider instance. Share/Unshare should remain in the UI and use currentProvider.getWorkerPort().postMessage. SocialProvider could have postMessage as a method to shorten. The reason worker communication should not be a part of a singleton service is that it will complicate use cases in a multi provider system. e.g. I have motown and xyz, with xyz as my current provider, I could still get chat request notifications from motown. +let Social = { + init: function Social_init() { + Services.prefs.addObserver(PREF_SOCIAL_ENABLED, this, false); + + SocialService.getProviderList(function (providers) { + if (providers.length) + this.setProvider(providers[0]); + }.bind(this)); + }, We have had async setup of the provider and found we had to do a notification here to startup the rest of the social ui functionality, since much of it needed to get at the currentProvider. We had a social-service-ready notification for that (you can see it here https://github.com/mozilla/socialapi-dev/blob/develop/content/main.js#L203) Perhaps we can instantiate this part of the service during the profile-after-change notification, that should get the reading of the providers early enough to be prepared for use by the ui.

I still feel my comments in comment 50 are valid, especially given that the SocialService has enabled in bug 771980. I think Social.jsm should be split out, enabled/provider into SocialService and share/unshare into SocialUI.

Then the state should just be kept in memory and expire with the current session. The flag on the browser element surely looks like a design flaw.

I tweaked some things, and changed around how Social.jsm works a little, removed some parts (theme stuff leftover from the more involved popup). I think things mostly work, but I'm still having issues with the test. I think we should re-write it to use events or notifications instead of relying on executeSoons. This is still on top of the latest patch in bug 771980.

Comment on attachment 640911 [details] [diff] [review] patch v5 Review of attachment 640911 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- I think the test is hanging because the MoTown provider was removed. I believe that if we set a provider at the beginning then the test will work correctly, but we should still replace the remaining executeSoon's with events where possible. For the synthesizeKey one, I guess we could add an event listener for onkeyup, but everything in the patch looks good to me. I think we can remove the margin-top on the buttons in the popup though. I added that when I was trying to get the styling to look right but at this point it's not really necessary and we could choose a different implementation for the styling when we get that far.
