Currently the `web/app.js` file pulls in various build-specific dependencies, via the use of import maps, and those files in turn import from `web/app.js` thus creating undesirable import cycles.
To avoid this we instead pass in a `PDFViewerApplication`-reference, immediately after it's been created, to the relevant code.
Note that we use an ESLint plugin rule, see `import/no-cycle`, that is normally able to catch import cycles. However, in this case import maps are involved which is why this wasn't caught.
This should be a *tiny* bit more efficient, since it avoids parsing substrings that we don't care about.
*Please note:* I cannot find an ESLint rule to enforce this automatically.
- Ensure that localization works in the GENERIC viewer, even if the necessary locale files cannot be loaded.
This was the behaviour prior to the introduction of Fluent, and it seems worthwhile to keep that (especially since we already bundle the en-US strings anyway).
- Let the `GenericL10n`-implementation use the *bundled* en-US strings directly when no language is provided.
- Remove the `NullL10n`-implementation, and simply fallback to `GenericL10n`, to reduce the maintenance burden of viewer-components localization.
- Indirectly, given the previous point, stop exporting `NullL10n` in the viewer-components since it's now removed.
Note that it was never really intended to be used directly and only existed as a fallback.
*Please note:* This doesn't affect the Firefox PDF Viewer, thanks to the use of import maps.
When an highlight is self-intersecting, the outline was drawn inside.
In order to remove it, we use a svg mask to exclude the shape inside
when drawing the outlines.
That leads to change the outline 1px,white-2px,blue-1px,white to a
2px,white-2px,blue: the part of the stroke which is inside the shape
is removed because of the mask.
All of our static evaluation & dead-code elimination transforms need to
happen in post-order, transforming inner nodes first. This is so that
in complex nested cases all transforms see the simplified version of
their inner nodes.
For example:
async getNimbusExperimentData() {
if (!PDFJSDev.test("GECKOVIEW")) { return null; }
// other code
}
-> [evaluation of PDFJSDev.*]
async getNimbusExperimentData() {
if (!false) { return null; }
// other code
}
-> [!false -> true]
async getNimbusExperimentData() {
if (true) { return null; }
// other code
}
-> [if (true) -> replace with the if branch]
async getNimbusExperimentData() {
return null;
// other code
}
-> [early return -> remove dead code]
async getNimbusExperimentData() {
return null;
// other code
}
This was done correctly in all cases except for our `UnaryExpression`
transform, which was happening in pre-order.
Having this parameter among a list of DOM-elements seems slightly strange now, however this is very old code hence the explanation for why this was done is for historical reasons (as is often the case).
Hence we can simply move this into `AppOptions` instead, which seems more appropriate overall.
Given that only the GENERIC viewer supports opening more than one PDF document, we can simplify things a tiny bit by instead generating the necessary DOM-element in JavaScript.
The `DefaultExternalServices` code, which is used to provide build-specific functionality, is very old. This results in a pattern where we first initialize `PDFViewerApplication.externalServices` and then *override* it for the different builds.
By converting `DefaultExternalServices` into a "regular" class, and leveraging import maps, we can directly initialize the correct instance depending on the build.
Given the simplicity of the `createPreferences` method, we can leverage import maps to directly initialize the correct `Preferences`-instance depending on the build.
Given the simplicity of the `createDownloadManager` method, we can leverage import maps to directly initialize the correct `DownloadManager`-instance depending on the build.
The latest mozilla-central update has test failures, because some CSS variables are not "properly" referenced; in particular:
- Give `--hcm-highlight-selected-filter` a default value, of `none`, similar to the previously existing HCM filter.
- Remove the `--mix-blend-mode` variable, since it's unused.
This manually ignores some cases where the resulting auto-formatting would not, as far as I'm concerned, constitute a readability improvement or where we'd just end up with more overall indentation.
Please see https://eslint.org/docs/latest/rules/arrow-body-style
For arrow functions that are both simple and short, we can avoid using explicit `return` to shorten them even further without hurting readability.
For the `gulp mozcentral` build-target this reduces the overall size of the output by just under 1 kilo-byte (which isn't a lot but still can't hurt).
In order to do that we must change the text layer opacity to 1 but
it has several implications:
- the selection color must have an alpha component,
- the background color of the span used for highlighted words
must have an alpha component either, but now the opacity is 1
we can use some backdrop-filters in HCM making the highlighted
words more visible.
- fix a regression caused by #17196: the css variable --hcm-highlight-filter
has to live under the #viewer element because in HCM it's overwritten
by js at this level, hence links annotations for example didn't
have the right colors when hovered.
The free highlighting is enabled when the mouse pointer isn't on some text.
Then we draw a shape with smoothed borders corresponding to the movement of
the mouse.
Printing/saving and changing the thickness will come later.
By always removing the "visibilitychange" listener in the `PDFViewer.#onePageRenderedOrForceFetch`-method we can (ever so slightly) reduce duplication in the code.
The system locale (used in OffscreenCanvas) can be different from the one guessed by Fluent,
consequently, in order to avoid any mismatch, we just use an attached canvas element.
The original issue can easily be reproduced locally in adding a lang="ja" in viewer.html
(or with an other language for Japanese users).
With modern JavaScript class features we can move the relevant event handling into private methods, and thus invoke it directly when resetting the toolbar UI-state.
*Please note:* This patch slightly reduces the size of the `web/secondary_toolbar.js` file.
