Adds bots mention support to reply option.

[priyank-p]

Currently in reply option we handle stream and user mention just fine but not bots mention since they are not in the DOM. To do this you have to make a request to /users endpoint and filter out bots using is_bots property. It should be done in app/renderer/js/notification/helpers.js

I am able to mention bots in reply. Zulipbot and Github Bot were mentioned.

Can you say how to can I reproduce the issue?

@abhigyank did you mentioned them using notification reply option as it states in the title?
I am 90% sure this should not have worked since we did not implement it.

[abhigyank]

I mentioned using the reply option on the bottom right of the screen. The one that comes after 'New Private Message. That's the one you're referring to right?

[priyank-p]

Nope, this is the one the reply option (inline reply for notification) we are taking about in this issue

[rsarky]

Is there a particular way to enable inline reply for notification?
I cannot seem to reply to notifications as such. @cPhost

[priyank-p]

@rsarky and others. Once again this feature is only available for Mac in latest release. Support for other os is under development.

[rsarky]

My bad. Did not notice that it is exclusive for mac.

I am using zulip-js for fetching the user list from users endpoint. What configuration for zulip-js should I use regarding username, apiKey etc? Should I add my personal one in a zuliprc file and add it in .gitignore?

[priyank-p]

@abhigyank you don't need to use zulip-js for this, you can just request it use /json/users endpoint as it states in above. it would return list of all members in top level members key and it a array. so you need to get the list that has property is_bots.

For example https://chat.zulip.org/json/users.

If any thing seems unclear post it in electron stream.
