App: [$500] [Teachers Unite!] Implement optimistic whisper message
After the volunteer referral flow (“I know a teacher”) is completed, we redirect the user to the public room. But if the user performs this action in offline mode, we’ll just display the chat report as loading (since we’ll persist the request, we will share the room anyway once the request has been made).
Given that’s the default offline behavior for public rooms (i.e. when the user opens the native app from a deep link), we’ll implement, as a follow-up, the optimistic whisper message to notify the user that at least something is happening.
Whisper message for the inviter/referrer:
"Hey @" + inviterDisplayName + "! Thanks for referring your friend " + firstName + " to <a href=\"https://www.expensify.org\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Expensify.org</a> Teachers Unite. We have gone ahead and reached out to them! We'll continue to share any important announcements here to keep you in the loop about the campaign's impact. If you'd like to refer someone else, just click on Save The World in the app's main menu. Thanks for helping us to Save The World!"

Oops, I was focused on another wave7 item. @rezkiy37, let’s continue with this issue. We’re planning to add the STW button when the campaign is live, but meanwhile, let’s implement it, and you can access the page by adding the route
/teachersunite
to the URL in the browser.@hoangzinh thanks for the proposal. When I created the issue I asked for help from the Callstack team first, appreciate your proactivity 🙇🏽
No update today, wrapping up other dailies, then I will continue with this one
Sorry no update, I’ve been focused on wave bugs
Moved to vip-vsb with priority Medium although it’s not part of Complex splits
Feel free to move this to vip-vsb if you’d like to prioritize this, though I don’t think it’s required for wave7 any longer.
No update, we’d need to implement first a way to test the TU flows without impacting the data in the real policy. I already created a couple of PRs to flip the constants and one of those has been merged.
Guys, I am having a vacation till the 4th January. So, I will be OOO within this period.
No update, but I’m retaking this one today or tomorrow.
Hi @rezkiy37, sorry for the delay here. I’ve been focused on other high-priority items. I plan to retake this one this week (or early next week).
Alright, the priority is really remaining the same, but we’re taking this off hold.
I’m asking in Slack about the priority of this issue
Yeah, good call, I will move it to weekly
Just to inform, I’ll be ooo for the next few days and we’ll be back on Monday, November 6th.
I have to inform that starting tomorrow I have a short vocation until next Monday (6.11.2023). Feel free to left any comments, I will address them. See you soon 😉
@marcochavezf, should we add “On Hold” to this issue?
Thanks for the change, I will be working on the backend changes to avoid the duplicate message. I will let you know when it’s ready
Hi @rezkiy37, yeah the proposal looks good, thanks! I think the only change we’d need to sync the frontend and backend is to send the
reportActionID
from the optimistic whisper message to the API commandReferTeachersUniteVolunteer
as a parameter. Could you include that change so I can test the backend changes?Yes, and this brings an interesting point I haven’t considered. Do you know if we’re translating other optimistic whisper messages? Because we don’t support locale in the backend atm and we’re just generating this message in English, which could be a problem if the app is configured in Spanish and receives eventually the message in English. So I think we would need to modify the
ReferTeachersUniteVolunteer
API command to receive the whisper message from the client-side.Yup, it should use the existing
mention
implementation which has the format<mention-user>@${accountEmail}</mention-user>
if I recall correctly.Yup, you can try to “refer” a teacher with the URL posted in the previous comment and you will see the whisper that we send from the backend:
The idea is to create the same whisper optimistcally in the client-side instead of waiting for the server to send it
Ah it should be the full relative route (without
/r
) https://staging.new.expensify.com/teachersuniteThe issue backs to on hold - https://github.com/Expensify/App/pull/27763#issue-1902566877.
Yes, I think we can put this on hold for now while we figure out when we’ll be launch the
Save the World
flow. The tracking issue for the project is here: https://github.com/Expensify/Expensify/issues/223645
