chore: migrate ThreadMessagesView to hooks - #5915
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
initFilter doesn't have to have to resolve a promise anymore.
It would do in the past because of UserPreferences and setState, but it's not the case now.
ThreadMessagesView changes from a class component to a hook-based function component. New hooks load threads, observe room subscriptions, and manage search. Filter helpers, saved-filter persistence, thread-item styles, and empty-state rendering are added.
Changes
ThreadMessagesView
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Thread data shape and persistence app/views/ThreadMessagesView/types.ts, app/views/ThreadMessagesView/methods/updateThreads.ts
TThreadRow selects thread fields. updateThreads builds rows and, when a subscription exists, batches record changes with the lastThreadSync update.
Subscription and thread loading app/views/ThreadMessagesView/hooks/useRoomSubscription.ts, app/views/ThreadMessagesView/hooks/useThreads.ts
useRoomSubscription observes a room subscription and unread values. useThreads observes stored threads or fetches pages, and returns thread data, loading state, and pagination.
The screen uses filter and search helpers, persists the selected filter, and renders filtered threads, loading and empty states, and styled items. The Item story and test imports are updated.
Opening Threads in a room with a short list can start a page load while the initial sync is still running. When both loads write the same new thread, one write can fail, so thread updates are dropped and the sync timestamp is not saved. The next open normally recovers. Block pagination until the initial sync finishes; this is a small, localized fix.

The useAppSelector selector builds a new { user, useRealName } object on every invocation, so without an equality function the component re-renders on every store update (not just user/UI_Use_Real_Name changes). Consider selecting the two values separately, or pass a shallow-equality comparator.

Await updateThreads to ensure database persistence completes before updating UI state.
The updateThreads function performs an asynchronous database write, but it is not awaited here. Consequently, the loading, end-of-list, and offset states are updated immediately after the network response arrives, before the data is actually saved to the local database. Awaiting the promise ensures the UI state reflects the data only after it is successfully persisted, preventing race conditions.

Inline comments:
In `@app/views/ThreadMessagesView/components/EmptyThreads.tsx`:
- Around line 5-19: EmptyThreads is rendering the empty-state message during the
initial fetch because it always passes only text to BackgroundContainer. Update
EmptyThreads to accept a loading prop and forward it to BackgroundContainer, and
make sure the ListEmptyComponent call site in index.tsx passes the current
loading state so the spinner shows instead of flashing “No_threads” before data
loads.
In `@app/views/ThreadMessagesView/hooks/useSubscription.tsx`:
- Line 17: The initial `subscription` state in `useSubscription` is masking the
unloaded state because `{}` is truthy and bypasses the `useThreads` guard.
Change `subscription` to start as `null` (or an explicit loading state) in
`useSubscription`, then update consumers like `useThreads` and `updateThreads`
to handle the null/uninitialized case before reading `subscription.threads` or
other fields.
In `@app/views/ThreadMessagesView/hooks/useThreads.tsx`:
- Around line 119-122: The initialization effect in useThreads is running before
the subscription data is ready, so init() always sees an empty subscription and
falls back to full load() instead of sync(). Update the useLayoutEffect around
init() and handleThreadsSubscription() to depend on subscription data from
useSubscription, ideally subscription.lastThreadSync, so the effect re-runs once
the real subscription payload arrives and the incremental sync path is taken.
In `@app/views/ThreadMessagesView/index.tsx`:
- Around line 165-174: The onThreadPress handler in ThreadMessagesView is using
useDebounce with the default trailing-only behavior, which delays thread
navigation by 1 second on every tap. Update the useDebounce call for
onThreadPress so navigation happens immediately by enabling leading execution
(for example via the third options argument), while keeping the existing
Navigation.popToRoom and Navigation.push logic unchanged.
In `@app/views/ThreadMessagesView/methods/updateThreads.ts`:
- Around line 34-38: Filter out null results from buildMessage before using _id
in updateThreads. In updateThreads.ts, after mapping with buildMessage, remove
any null entries (or narrow the array) before the threadsToCreate and
threadsToUpdate filters so i1._id and i2._id are only accessed on non-null
messages. Keep the logic centered around buildMessage, threadsToCreate, and
threadsToUpdate, and ensure the later similar _id dereference is also guarded
the same way.

Learning: In this Rocket.Chat React Native codebase, the ESLint rule `no-void: error` is enforced. When you see a promise returned from an async call that is not awaited (a “floating promise”), do not silence it with the `void somePromise()` pattern. Instead, handle the promise explicitly by attaching `.catch(...)` (or otherwise awaiting/handling the error) so unhandled-rejection risks are addressed in a way that satisfies the existing ESLint configuration.

Learning: When wrapping a React Native component (e.g., via `withSafeAreaInsets`) ensure `hoistNonReactStatics` is only required if the wrapped component actually defines static properties/methods that consumers rely on. If the component has no statics (as in `app/views/MessagesView/index.tsx`), you can omit `hoistNonReactStatics` for this case.

Timestamp: 2026-03-15T13:55:42.038Z
Learning: In Rocket.Chat React Native, the markdown parser requires a space between the underscore wrapping italic text and a mention sigil (_ mention _ instead of _mention_). Ensure stories and tests that include italic-wrapped mentions follow this form to guarantee proper parsing. Specifically, for files like app/containers/markdown/Markdown.stories.tsx, and any test/content strings that exercise italic-mentions, use the pattern _ mention _ (with spaces) to prevent the mention from being treated as plain text. Validate any test strings or story content accordingly.
- restore leading-edge debounce on thread press (instant tap, blocks 1s)
- keep REST-loaded threads for rooms without a subscription; gate init on
subscriptionLoaded and skip the threads observable for no-sub rooms
- preserve active search filter when toggling thread follow
- move threads-subscription lifecycle and cleanup into useThreads
- drop dead hook params and unused `any` casts; rename non-JSX hooks to .ts

Add eslint-disable comment for react-hooks/exhaustive-deps on the initialization effect.
The effect depends on subscriptionLoaded but invokes init and handleThreadsSubscription without including them in the dependency array. Since the effect is guarded by didInit to run only once, adding these functions to the dependency array would break the "run-once" logic. You should explicitly suppress the lint warning with a rationale.

react-hooks/exhaustive-deps because it intentionally runs only once via

them as dependencies; add an eslint-disable-next-line comment for that useEffect

guard remains intact.
init try/catch is ineffective and leaves floating promises.
sync and load are async/debounced, so awaiting is skipped — the try/catch only catches synchronous throws (none here) and the returned promises float. Same for the unawaited updateThreads(...) in sync (Line 87). Per the codebase convention, attach .catch(log) rather than leaving them floating (and avoid void).
Based on learnings: the no-void: error rule is enforced; floating promises should be handled with .catch(...) rather than silenced with void.

This was raised previously. Note the current consumers (useThreads and updateThreads) guard on subscription._id / subscription?._id rather than !subscription, so the empty-object default no longer throws on subscription.threads. Still, consider null plus an explicit type (TSubscriptionModel | null) to make the "not loaded" state unambiguous.
- Observe the room subscription and threads query through useObservable instead of imperative re-subscribes; snapshot thread unreads per emission so mutated WatermelonDB records still re-render
- Move the header into useThreadMessagesHeader (searchHeaderOptions + filter menu, matching TeamChannelsView)
- Keep pagination guards in a ref, await thread persistence, drop null buildMessage results
- Read the saved filter as lazy initial state, select store values with shallowEqual, pass Item props explicitly
- Show the empty state's loader while the first fetch runs
- Move Item stories and snapshot test under stories/

Timestamp: 2026-06-15T16:17:16.611Z
Learning: In the Rocket.Chat React Native codebase, WatermelonDB subscription records have their primary-key `id` column set to the room id (`tmp.rid`) during creation in `app/lib/methods/subscriptions/rooms.ts` via `sanitizedRaw({ id: tmp.rid }, ...)`. Therefore, querying the Android SQLCipher `subscriptions` table with `WHERE id == ?` bound to `ejson.rid` is correct and equivalent to the iOS query `WHERE rid = ?`. There is no column mismatch — `id` in the SQLite table stores the same value as the Rocket.Chat `rid` field.
The i18n-js@3.9.2 type declaration defines I18n.t(scope: string | string[], ...). The intersected Ti18n type therefore still accepts emptyTextKeys[currentFilter] as a string. The as const change is not required.

Block loadMore while the initial sync runs.
sync does not set pagination.current.inFlight. As a result, canLoadMore() returns true while the initial sync is still running. If the stored list is short, FlatList fires onEndReached, and load(subscription) runs at the same time as sync.
Both calls reach persistThreads. Each call reads subscription.threads.fetch() before either write commits. Both calls can then prepareCreate the same thread id, which makes one db.batch fail. That whole batch is then lost and only logged, including the lastThreadSync update.
The old class component avoided this case: it set state.loading during sync and load returned early while loading.
