Please note that the `setPDFNetworkStreamFactory` functionality isn't exposed in the public API, i.e. not listed among the exports in the `src/pdf.js` file, and that even if it were it wouldn't really be useful considering that none of the `PDFNetworkStream`/`PDFFetchStream`/`PDFNodeStream` classes are exported either.
These methods were deprecated already in PDF.js version `2.1.266`, see PRs 10246 and 10369, and were converted to throw `Error`s upon invocation in PDF.js version `2.4.456`, see PR 11219.
Hence it ought to be possible to remove these methods now.
*This is part of a series of patches that will try to split PR 11566 into smaller chunks, to make reviewing more feasible.*
Once all the code has been fixed, we'll be able to eventually enable the ESLint no-shadow rule; see https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-shadow
This property has never been documented and/or *intentionally* exposed through the API, instead the `PDFPageProxy.pageNumber` property is the documented/intended API to use here.
Hence pageIndex is changed to a "private" property on `PDFPageProxy` instances, and internal API functionality is also updated to *consistently* use `this._pageIndex` rather than a mix of formats.
Rather than duplicating the lookup and caching in multiple files, it seems easier to simply move all of this functionality into `src/shared/util.js` instead.
This will also help avoid a bunch of ESLint errors once the `no-shadow` rule is eventually enabled.
The only reason for the `return undefined;` lines was to appease the ESLint `consistent-return` rule, but that's not actually necessary if you make use of the fact that the method is `async` and that we can thus await the Promise rather than returning it.
This patch deprecates the existing `getOpenActionDestination` API method, in favor of a better and more general `getOpenAction` method instead. (For now JavaScript actions, related to printing, are still handled as before.)
By clearly separating "regular" Print actions from the JavaScript handling, it's thus possible to get rid of the somewhat annoying and strictly incorrect warning when the viewer loads.
It's no longer necessary to special-case this getter in the `GenericFontLoader` case, since the GENERIC build hasn't been using `mozPrintCallback` for years now (furthermore Firefox 63 is really old as well).
Please note that these changes do *not* affect the *public* interface of the `Metadata` class, but only touches internal structures.[1]
These changes were prompted by looking at the `getAll` method, which simply returns the "private" metadata object to the consumer. This seems wrong conceptually, since it allows way too easy/accidental changes to the internal parsed metadata.
As part of fixing this, the internal metadata was changed to use a `Map` rather than a plain Object.

[1] Basically, we shouldn't need to worry about someone depending on internal implementation details.
- Remove the "capturing group" in the regular expression that removes leading "junk" from the raw metadata, since it's not necessary here (it's simply a case of too much copy-pasting in a prior patch).
According to [MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions/Cheatsheet#Groups_and_ranges) you want to, for performance reasons, avoid "capturing groups" unless actually needed.
- Add inline comments to document a bunch of magic values in the code.
Given that all `TypedArray` polyfills were removed in PDF.js version `2.0`, since native support is now required, this branch has been dead code for awhile.
In practice it's extremely rare[1] for the padding to be zero in *all* components, hence it seems better to just set it directly rather than creating a temporary variable and checking for the "no padding"-case.

[1] In the `tracemonkey.pdf` file that only happens with `0.08%` of all text elements.
This patch makes the following changes, to improve these API methods:
- Let `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` return a boolean indicating if clean-up actually happened, since ongoing rendering will block clean-up.
Besides being used in other parts of this patch, it seems that an API user may also be interested in the return value given that clean-up isn't *guaranteed* to happen.
- Let `PDFDocumentProxy.cleanup` return the promise indicating when clean-up is finished.
- Improve the JSDoc comment for `PDFDocumentProxy.cleanup` to mention that clean-up is triggered on *both* threads (without going into unnecessary specifics regarding what *exactly* said data actually is).
Add a note in the JSDoc comment about not calling this method when rendering is ongoing.
- Change `WorkerTransport.startCleanup` to throw an `Error` if it's called when rendering is ongoing, to prevent rendering from breaking.
Please note that this won't stop *worker-thread* clean-up from happening (since there's no general "something is rendering"-flag), however I'm not sure if that's really a problem; but please don't quote me on that :-)
All of the caches that's being cleared in `Catalog.cleanup`, on the worker-thread, *should* be re-filled automatically even if cleared *during* parsing/rendering, and the only thing that probably happens is that e.g. font data would have to be re-parsed.
On the main-thread, on the other hand, clearing the caches is more-or-less guaranteed to cause rendering errors, since the rendering code in `src/display/canvas.js` isn't able to re-request any image/font data that's suddenly being pulled out from under it.
- Last, but not least, add a couple of basic unit-tests for the clean-up functionality.
This should hopefully be useful in environments where restrictive CSPs are in effect.
In most cases the replacement is entirely straighforward, and there's only a couple of special cases:
- For the `src/display/font_loader.js` and `web/pdf_outline_viewer.js `cases, since the elements aren't appended to the document yet, it shouldn't matter if the style properties are set one-by-one rather than all at once.
- For the `web/debugger.js` case, there's really no need to set the `padding` inline at all and the definition was simply moved to `web/viewer.css` instead.
*Please note:* There's still *a single* case left, in `web/toolbar.js` for setting the width of the zoom dropdown, which is left intact for now.
The reasons are that this particular case shouldn't matter for users of the general PDF.js library, and that it'd make a lot more sense to just try and re-factor that very old code anyway (thus fixing the `setAttribute` usage in the process).
Based on the PDF spec, with `v` operator, current point should be used as the first control point of the curve.
Do not overwrite current point before an SVG curve is built, so it can b actually used as first control point.
In the current `AnnotationLayer` implementation, Popup annotations require that the parent annotation have already been rendered (otherwise they're simply ignored).
Usually the annotations are ordered, in the `/Annots` array, in such a way that this isn't a problem, however there's obviously no guarantee that all PDF generators actually do so. Hence we simply ensure, when rendering the `AnnotationLayer`, that the Popup annotations are handled last.
Interestingly the viewer already seem to work correctly as-is, with workers disabled and a non-standard `verbosity` level.
Hence this is possibly Node.js specific, but given that the issue is lacking *both* the PDF file in question and a runnable test-case, so this patch is essentially a best-effort guess at what the problem could be.
This covers cases that the `--fix` command couldn't deal with, and in a few cases (notably `src/core/jbig2.js`) the code was changed to use block-scoped variables instead.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/prefer-const
With the recent introduction of Prettier this sort of mass enabling of ESLint rules becomes a lot easier, since the code will be automatically reformatted as necessary to account for e.g. changed line lengths.
Note that this patch is generated automatically, by using the ESLint `--fix` argument, and will thus require some additional clean-up (which is done separately).
This removes a couple of, thanks to preceeding code, unnecessary `typeof PDFJSDev` checks, and also fixes a couple of incorrectly implemented (my fault) checks intended for `TESTING` builds.
After PR 9566, which removed all of the old Firefox extension code, the `FIREFOX` build flag is no longer used for anything.
It thus seems to me that it should be removed, for a couple of reasons:
- It's simply dead code now, which only serves to add confusion when looking at the `PDFJSDev` calls.
- It used to be that `MOZCENTRAL` and `FIREFOX` was *almost* always used together. However, ever since PR 9566 there's obviously been no effort put into keeping the `FIREFOX` build flags up to date.
- In the event that a new, Webextension based, Firefox addon is created in the future you'd still need to audit all `MOZCENTRAL` (and possibly `CHROME`) build flags to see what'd make sense for the addon.
This particular JSDoc comment is fairly old and it also contains some now unrelated/confusing information.
The only way to *guarantee* that the PDF.js library works as expected is to correctly set the global `workerSrc`[1], hence giving the impression that the option isn't strictly necessary is thus incorrect.
---
[1] Since advertising the fallbackWorkerSrc functionality definitely seems like the *wrong* thing to do.
This rule is already enabled in mozilla-central, and helps avoid some confusing formatting, see https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/9e45d74b956be046e5021a746b0c8912f1c27318/tools/lint/eslint/eslint-plugin-mozilla/lib/configs/recommended.js#209-210
With the recent introduction of Prettier some of the existing nested ternary statements became even more difficult to read, since any possibly helpful indentation was removed.
This particular ESLint rule wasn't entirely straightforward to enable, and I do recognize that there's a certain amount of subjectivity in the changes being made. Generally, the changes in this patch fall into three categories:
- Cases where a value is only clamped to a certain range (the easiest ones to update).
- Cases where the values involved are "simple", such as Numbers and Strings, which are re-factored to initialize the variable with the *default* value and only update it when necessary by using `if`/`else if` statements.
- Cases with more complex and/or larger values, such as TypedArrays, which are re-factored to let the variable be (implicitly) undefined and where all values are then set through `if`/`else if`/`else` statements.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-nested-ternary
In order to eventually get rid of SystemJS and start using native `import`s instead, we'll need to provide "complete" file identifiers since otherwise there'll be MIME type errors when attempting to use `import`.
This patch makes the follow changes:
- Remove no longer necessary inline `// eslint-disable-...` comments.
- Fix `// eslint-disable-...` comments that Prettier moved down, thus causing new linting errors.
- Concatenate strings which now fit on just one line.
- Fix comments that are now too long.
- Finally, and most importantly, adjust comments that Prettier moved down, since the new positions often is confusing or outright wrong.
Note that Prettier, purposely, has only limited [configuration options](https://prettier.io/docs/en/options.html). The configuration file is based on [the one in `mozilla central`](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/.prettierrc) with just a few additions (to avoid future breakage if the defaults ever changes).
Prettier is being used for a couple of reasons:
- To be consistent with `mozilla-central`, where Prettier is already in use across the tree.
- To ensure a *consistent* coding style everywhere, which is automatically enforced during linting (since Prettier is used as an ESLint plugin). This thus ends "all" formatting disussions once and for all, removing the need for review comments on most stylistic matters.
Many ESLint options are now redundant, and I've tried my best to remove all the now unnecessary options (but I may have missed some).
Note also that since Prettier considers the `printWidth` option as a guide, rather than a hard rule, this patch resorts to a small hack in the ESLint config to ensure that *comments* won't become too long.
*Please note:* This patch is generated automatically, by appending the `--fix` argument to the ESLint call used in the `gulp lint` task. It will thus require some additional clean-up, which will be done in a *separate* commit.
(On a more personal note, I'll readily admit that some of the changes Prettier makes are *extremely* ugly. However, in the name of consistency we'll probably have to live with that.)
There's a fair number of (primarily) `Array`s/`TypedArray`s whose formatting we don't want disturb, since in many cases that would lead to the code becoming much more difficult to read and/or break existing inline comments.
*Please note:* It may be a good idea to look through these cases individually, and possibly re-write some of the them (especially the `String` ones) to reduce the need for all of these ignore commands.
Since bundlers, such as Webpack, cannot be told to leave `require` statements alone we are thus forced to jump through hoops in order to prevent these warnings in third-party deployments of the PDF.js library; please see [Webpack issue 8826](https://github.com/webpack/webpack) and libraries such as [require-fool-webpack](https://github.com/sindresorhus/require-fool-webpack).
*Please note:* This is based on the assumption that code running in Node.js won't ever be affected by e.g. Content Security Policies that prevent use of `eval`. If that ever occurs, we should revert to a normal `require` statement and simply document the Webpack warnings instead.
This patch reduces some duplication, by moving *all* fake worker loader code into the `setupFakeWorkerGlobal` function. Furthermore, the functions are simplified further by using `async`/`await` where appropriate.
There's no particularily good reason, as far as I can tell, to not support a custom worker path in Node.js environments (even if workers aren't supported). This patch thus make the Node.js fake worker loader code-path consistent with the fallback code-path used with *browser* fake worker loader.
Finally, this patch also deprecates[1] the `fallbackWorkerSrc` functionality, except in Node.js, since the user should *always* provide correct worker options since the fallback is nothing more than a best-effort solution.
---
[1] Although it probably shouldn't be removed until the next major version.
For performance reasons, and to avoid hanging the browser UI, the PDF.js library should *always* be used with web workers enabled.
At this point in time all of the supported browsers should have proper worker support, and Node.js is thus the only environment where workers aren't supported. Hence it no longer seems relevant/necessary to provide, by default, fake worker loaders for various JS builders/bundlers/frameworks in the PDF.js code itself.[1]
In order to simplify things, the fake worker loader code is thus simplified to now *only* support Node.js usage respectively "normal" browser usage out-of-the-box.[2]
*Please note:* The officially intended way of using the PDF.js library is with workers enabled, which can be done by setting `GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc`, `GlobalWorkerOptions.workerPort`, or manually providing a `PDFWorker` instance when calling `getDocument`.
---
[1] Note that it's still possible to *manually* disable workers, simply my manually loading the built `pdf.worker.js` file into the (current) global scope, however this's mostly intended for testing/debugging purposes.
[2] Unfortunately some bundlers such as Webpack, when used with third-party deployments of the PDF.js library, will start to print `Critical dependency: ...` warnings when run against the built `pdf.js` file from this patch. The reason is that despite the `require` calls being protected by *runtime* `isNodeJS` checks, it's not possible to simply tell Webpack to just ignore the `require`; please see [Webpack issue 8826](https://github.com/webpack/webpack) and libraries such as [require-fool-webpack](https://github.com/sindresorhus/require-fool-webpack).
