globally search for media

Open r10s opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

this pr allows passing 0 to dc_get_chat_media(), the function returns media from any chat then - similar to dc_search_msgs().

moreover, this pr fixes a minor issue to not return hidden media - and a test (dc_get_chat_media() was completely untested)

closes #3527

one thing @adbenitez pointed out in dev chat, is that this approach does not care for duplicates - in a selector you maybe do not want to have them. however, unless there is a dead-simple approach, to allow UI to move forward, it probably makes sense to care for that at some later point in a subsequent pr. also, there is the rough idea of files deduplication, this may help somehow as well ;)

rust fmt is unhappy now :)

EDIT: pushed a fix.
