🍱 Dashboard adaption for Nextcloud 20

[juliusknorr]

For nextcloud/server#21346

This implements a basic dashboard panel for Talk that lists the recent conversations.

• Create conversation button in empty content view is non-functional
• Figure out if we can join a call directly by clicking on the start call button
• Show a loading placeholders
• Properly style conversation list to match the talk sidebar

@nickvergessen Is there a way to limit the results on https://nextcloud-talk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/conversation/#get-user-s-conversations in the request already? Any suggestion how to handle updates better than refetching every x seconds there?

No, and actually the results are not sorted at the moment on the server side. What would be a desired value, then we can add it. I would just like to not see this abused in other clients then by falsly assuming things on the limit and then asking for an offset etc.

Any suggestion how to handle updates better than refetching every x seconds there?

Not really, as I don't want to get signaling involved on the dashboard page. Also I think 5 second is way too frequent.

@juliushaertl could we have a "create new conversation" always and not only in the empty content? That way we could have a quick way to create a meeting like Jitzi and Zoom.
This could be a plus button similar to what we have in talk's conversations list:

Also, since each app has this "+" action, every dashboard list could have this, maybe it could appear when hovering the list? cc @jancborchardt

@ma12-co yup, exactly that is defined in the spec at nextcloud/server#20930

Updated as discussed with @jancborchardt and @juliushaertl to show unread mentions and calls only and otherwise an empty content with the last 4 conversations.

Time to get it in
