📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The chat page now broadcasts throttled typing events, tracks remote typing users, clears stale states, and renders typing indicators. Presence payloads include usernames. Onboarding inputs now show disabled-state styling.

Changes

Chat typing indicators

Layer / File(s) Summary
Typing contract and broadcast
resources/js/pages/Chat/Index.vue, routes/channels.php
Typing state and throttled whispers use user id, name, and username. Input events trigger mention checks and typing broadcasts.
Typing lifecycle and rendering
resources/js/pages/Chat/Index.vue
Typing entries clear after messages or departures, expire after three seconds, clean up on unmount, and render indicators for one or more users.

Onboarding disabled-state styling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Onboarding input styling
resources/js/pages/auth/Onboarding.vue
The name, username, and school inputs now include disabled and dark-mode disabled styling classes.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 4aa01

The change is mergeable with owner awareness: typing updates may occasionally be delayed or remain visible briefly, and an untrusted client could cause a misleading username link to appear for a few seconds. Follow-up should gate whispers on subscription readiness, normalize user IDs, and use authenticated presence identity.

In `@resources/js/pages/Chat/Index.vue`:
- Line 277: Update broadcastTyping to defer whisper('typing') until
setupPresenceChannel has received the successful subscription callback. Track
presence-channel subscription readiness, guard the whisper and lastTypingSentAt
update on that readiness, and preserve the existing typing throttling behavior
once subscribed.
- Around line 278-280: Normalize user and whisper IDs to one canonical type
throughout the typing-user flow, including broadcast payloads, .message.sent and
.leaving handlers, and typingUsers.value has/get/delete lookups. Update the
relevant typing indicator methods so string and numeric representations of the
same ID resolve to the same Map key and cleanup occurs correctly.
- Around line 732-752: Update the listenForWhisper typing-event handler to
derive the sender identity from the authenticated callback metadata.user_id and
trusted presence member data, rather than e.id, e.name, or e.username. Continue
ignoring the current user, refreshing the existing timeout, and storing only the
authenticated member’s identity and profile fields in typingUsers.
