- Actually remove the `isDown` property when destroying the scripting-instance.
- Mark all `mouseState` usage as "private" in the various classes.
- Ensure that the `AnnotationLayer` actually treats the parameter as properly *optional*, the same way that the viewer components do.
- For now remove the `mouseState` parameter from the `PDFPageView` class, and keep it only on the `BaseViewer`, since it's questionable if all of the scripting-functionality will work all that well without e.g. a full `BaseViewer`.
- Append the `mouseState` to the JSDoc for the `AnnotationElement` class, and just move its definition into the base-`AnnotationElement` class.
This new event essentially mirrors the existing "pagesinit" event, and will allow e.g. a custom implementation of the viewer to be notified before the current PDF document is removed from the viewer.
By using this new event, we're thus able to dispatch a "pageclose" event for JavaScript actions when closing the existing document.
Having looked at the Acrobat JavaScript specification, see https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/AcrobatDC_js_api_reference.pdf#G5.1963437, I suppose that introducing these two new events is probably the easiest solution overall.
However there's a number of things that, as far as I'm concerned, will help the overall implementation:
- Only dispatch these new events when `enableScripting = true` is set.
- Handle them *separately* from the existing "pagechanging" event dispatching, to avoid too much clutter.
- Don't dispatch either of the events if the page didn't actually change.
- When waiting for pages to render, don't dispatch "pageopen" if the page is no longer active when rendering finishes.
- Ensure that we only use *one* "pagerendered" event listener.
- Ensure that "pageopen" is actually dispatched when the document loads.
I suppose that we *could* avoid adding the "pageclose" event, and use the existing "pagechanging" event instead, however having a separate event might allow more flexibility in the future. (E.g. I don't know if we'll possibly want to dispatch "pageclose" on document close, as mentioned briefly in the specification.)
- Add support for logical assignment operators, i.e. `&&=`, `||=`, and `??=`, with a Babel-plugin. Given that these required incrementing the ECMAScript version in the ESLint and Acorn configurations, and that platform/browser support is still fairly limited, always transpiling them seems appropriate for now.
- Cache the `hasJSActions` promise in the API, similar to the existing `getAnnotations` caching. With this implemented, the lookup should now be cheap enough that it can be called unconditionally in the viewer.
- Slightly improve cleanup of resources when destroying the `WorkerTransport`.
- Remove the `annotationStorage`-property from the `PDFPageView` constructor, since it's not necessary and also brings it more inline with the `BaseViewer`.
- Update the `BaseViewer.createAnnotationLayerBuilder` method to actaually agree with the `IPDFAnnotationLayerFactory` interface.[1]
- Slightly tweak a couple of JSDoc comments.

[1] We probably ought to re-factor both the `IPDFTextLayerFactory` and `IPDFAnnotationLayerFactory` interfaces to take parameter objects instead, since especially the `IPDFAnnotationLayerFactory` one is becoming quite unwieldy. Given that that would likely be a breaking change for any custom viewer-components implementation, this probably requires careful deprecation.
This patch will help reduce memory usage, especially for longer documents, when the user scrolls around in the thumbnailView (in the sidebar).
Note how the `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` method will, assuming it's safe to do so, release main-thread resources associated with the page. These include things such as e.g. image data (which can be arbitrarily large), and also the operatorList (which can also be quite large).
Hence when pages are evicted from the `PDFPageViewBuffer`, on the `BaseViewer`-instance, the `PDFPageView.destroy` method is invoked which will (among other things) call `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` in the API.
However, looking at the `PDFThumbnailViewer`/`PDFThumbnailView` classes you'll notice that there's no attempt to ever call `PDFPageProxy.cleanup`, which implies that in certain circumstances we'll essentially keep all resources allocated permanently on the `PDFPageProxy`-instances in the API.
In particular, this happens when the users opens the sidebar and starts scrolling around in the thumbnails. Generally speaking you obviously need to keep all thumbnail *images* around, since otherwise the thumbnailView is useless, but there's still room for improvement here.
Please note that the case where a *rendered page* is used to create the thumbnail is (obviously) completely unaffected by the issues described above, and this rather only applies to thumbnails being explicitly rendered by the `PDFThumbnailView.draw` method.
For the latter case, we can fix these issues simply by calling `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` once rendering has finished. To prevent *accidentally* pulling the rug out from under `PDFPageViewBuffer` in the viewer, which expects data to be available, this required adding a couple of new methods[1] to enable checking that it's indeed safe to call `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` from the `PDFThumbnailView.draw` method.
It's really quite fascinating that no one has noticed this issue before, since it's been around since basically "forever".
---
[1] While it should be *very* rare for `PDFThumbnailView.draw` to be called for a pageView that's also in the `PDFPageViewBuffer`, given that pages are rendered before thumbnails and that the *rendered page* is used to create the thumbnail, it can still happen since rendering is asynchronous.
Furthermore, it's also possible for `PDFThumbnailView.setImage` to be disabled, in which case checking the `PDFPageViewBuffer` for active pageViews *really* matters.
* When no actions then set it to null instead of empty object
* Even if a field has no actions, it needs to listen to events from the sandbox in order to be updated if an action changes something in it.
Given the number of parameters, and the fact that many of them are booleans, the call-sites are no longer particularly easy to read and understand. Furthermore, this slightly improves the formatting of the JSDoc-comment, since it needed updating as part of these changes anyway.
Finally, this removes an unnecessary `numViews === 0` check from `getVisibleElements`, since that should be *very* rare and more importantly that the `binarySearchFirstItem` function already has a fast-path for that particular case.
This patch addresses a review comment, which pointed out that we should *also* handle the pageNumber-input, from PR 12493.
Given that a user *manually* changing pages using the pageNumber-input, on the toolbar, could be regarded as a pretty strong indication of user-intent w.r.t. navigation in the document, hence I suppose that updating the browser history in this case as well probably won't hurt.
Given that we're now accessing certain API-functionality *directly* in this file, e.g. the AnnotationStorage and Optional Content configuration, ensuring that there's not a version mismatch definitely seem like a good idea to prevent any *subtle* future bugs.
The `getVisibleElements` helper function currently requires the viewerContainer to be absolutely positioned; possibly fixing this is tracked in issue 11626.
Without `position: absolute;` set, in the CSS, there's a number of things that won't work correctly such as e.g.
- Determining which pages are currently visible, thus forcing all of them to render on load and increasing resource usage significantly; note https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#allthepages
- Scrolling pages into view, by using the `BaseViewer.currentPageNumber` setter or similar.
Based on the number of opened issues over the years, the fact that `position: absolute;` is required has shown to be something that users can very easily overlook unless they follow e.g. the `simpleviewer` example to the letter.
Hence, to improve things until such a time that issue 11626 is fixed, we'll now refuse to initialize a `BaseViewer` instance unless the `container` has the required CSS set. (Forcibly setting `position: absolute;` on the viewerContainer element is bound to cause significantly more issues/confusion, hence the current approach of throwing an Error.)
This should help prevent future issues, caused by the user omitting the `viewer` option and/or providing an incorrect `container` option, when initializing a `BaseViewer`-instance.
*Besides, obviously, adding viewer support:* This patch attempts to improve the general API for Optional Content Groups slightly, by adding a couple of new methods for interacting with the (more complex) data structures of `OptionalContentConfig`-instances. (Thus allowing us to mark some of the data as "private", given that it probably shouldn't be manipulated directly.)
By utilizing not just the "raw" Optional Content Groups, but the data from the `/Order` array when available, we can thus display the Layers in a proper tree-structure with collapsible headings for PDF documents that utilizes that feature.
Note that it's possible to reset all Optional Content Groups to their default visibility state, simply by double-clicking on the Layers-button in the sidebar.
(Currently that's indicated in the Layers-button tooltip, which is obviously easy to overlook, however it's probably the best we can do for now without adding more buttons, or even a dropdown-toolbar, to the sidebar.)
Also, the current Layers-button icons are a little rough around the edges, quite literally, but given that the viewer will soon have its UI modernized anyway they hopefully suffice in the meantime.
To give users *full* control of the visibility of the various Optional Content Groups, even those which according to the `/Order` array should not (by default) be toggleable in the UI, this patch will place those under a *custom* heading which:
- Is collapsed by default, and placed at the bottom of the Layers-tree, to be a bit less obtrusive.
- Uses a slightly different formatting, compared to the "regular" headings.
- Is localizable.
Finally, note that the thumbnails are *purposely* always rendered with all Optional Content Groups at their default visibility state, since that seems the most useful and it's also consistent with other viewers.
To ensure that this works as intended, we'll thus disable the `PDFThumbnailView.setImage` functionality when the Optional Content Groups have been changed in the viewer. (This obviously means that we'll re-render thumbnails instead of using the rendered pages. However, this situation ought to be rare enough for this to not really be a problem.)
Given that `renderInteractiveForms` is now enabled by default in "full" viewer, it seems reasonable to enable it by default in the viewer components as well.
Especially considering that it's simple to disable, when creating the affected components, for anyone implementing their own viewer.
The current behavior for `getPagesOverview` assumes we want to only
auto-rotate if:
- `enablePrintAutoRotate` is `true`
- `isFirstPagePortrait !== isPortraitOrientation(size)`
This second check is what is breaking #9297. The two PDFs linked have a
landscape orientation first page, as well as subsequent pages. Since
`false === false`, we print portrait.
Let's drop the comparison with `isFirstPagePortrait`, and print
landscape if `!isPortraitOrientation(size)`.
Fixes#9297.
*Please note:* These changes were done automatically, using the `gulp lint --fix` command.
This rule is already enabled in mozilla-central, see https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/567b68b8ff4b6d607ba34a6f1926873d21a7b4d7/tools/lint/eslint/eslint-plugin-mozilla/lib/configs/recommended.js#103-104
The main advantage, besides improved consistency, of this rule is that it reduces the size of the code (by 3 bytes for each case). In the PDF.js code-base there's close to 8000 instances being fixed by the `dot-notation` ESLint rule, which end up reducing the size of even the *built* files significantly; the total size of the `gulp mozcentral` build target changes from `3 247 456` to `3 224 278` bytes, which is a *reduction* of `23 178` bytes (or ~0.7%) for a completely mechanical change.
A large number of these changes affect the (large) lookup tables used on the worker-thread, but given that they are still initialized lazily I don't *think* that the new formatting this patch introduces should undo any of the improvements from PR 6915.

Please note that these changes were done automatically, using `gulp lint --fix`.
Given that the major version number was increased, there's a fair number of (primarily whitespace) changes; please see https://prettier.io/blog/2020/03/21/2.0.0.html
In order to reduce the size of these changes somewhat, this patch maintains the old "arrowParens" style for now (once mozilla-central updates Prettier we can simply choose the same formatting, assuming it will differ here).
The correct/intended way of working with the "viewer components" is by providing an `EventBus` instance upon initialization, and the `getGlobalEventBus` was only added for backwards compatibility.
Note, for example, that using `getGlobalEventBus` doesn't really work at all well with a use-case where there's *multiple* `PDFViewer` instances on a one page, since it may then be difficult/impossible to tell which viewer a particular event originated from.
All of the "viewer components" examples have been previously updated, such that there's no longer any code/examples which relies on the now removed `getGlobalEventBus` functionality.
For reasons that I don't even pretend to understand, the `textLayerFactory` property is determined for *every single* page in the PDF document.
Given that the `TextLayerMode` should be consistent for *all* pages in a document, we obviously could/should define `textLayerFactory` just once instead.
There's a couple of issues with this functionality:
- The respective `PromiseCapability` instances are not being reset, in `BaseViewer._resetView`, when the document is closed which is inconsistent with all other state.
- While the default viewer depends on these promises, and they thus ought to be considered part of e.g. the `PDFViewer` API-surface, they're not really defined in a particularily user-visible way (being that they're attached to the `BaseViewer` instance *inline* in `BaseViewer.setDocument`).
- There's some internal `BaseViewer` state, e.g. `BaseViewer._pageViewsReady`, which is tracked manually and could instead be tracked indirectly via the relevant `PromiseCapability`, thus reducing the need to track state *twice* since that's always best to avoid.
*Please note:* In the existing implementation, these promises are not defined *until* the `BaseViewer.setDocument` method has been called.
While it would've been simple to lift that restriction in this patch, I'm purposely choosing *not* to do so since this ensures that any Promise handlers added inside of `BaseViewer.setDocument` are always invoked *before* any external ones (and keeping that behaviour seems generally reasonable).
Since the goal has always been, essentially since the `EventBus` abstraction was added, to remove all dispatching of DOM events[1] from the viewer components this patch tries to address one thing that came up when updating the examples:
The DOM events are always dispatched last, and it's thus guaranteed that all internal event listeners have been invoked first.
However, there's no such guarantees with the general `EventBus` functionality and the order in which event listeners are invoked is *not* specified. With the promotion of the `EventBus` in the examples, over DOM events, it seems like a good idea to at least *try* to keep this ordering invariant[2] intact.
Obviously this won't prevent anyone from manually calling the new *internal* viewer component methods on the `EventBus`, but hopefully that won't be too common since any existing third-party code would obviously use the `on`/`off` methods and that all of the examples shows the *correct* usage (which should be similarily documented on the "Third party viewer usage" Wiki-page).
---
[1] Looking at the various Firefox-tests, I'm not sure that it'll be possible to (easily) re-write all of them to not rely on DOM events (since getting access to `PDFViewerApplication` might be generally difficult/messy depending on scopes).
In any case, even if technically feasible, it would most likely add *a lot* of complication that may not be desireable in the various Firefox-tests. All-in-all, I'd be fine with keeping the DOM events only for the `MOZCENTRAL` target and gated on `Cu.isInAutomation` (or similar) rather than a preference.
[2] I wouldn't expect any *real* bugs in a custom implementation, simply based on event ordering, but it nonetheless seem like a good idea if any "external" events are still handled last.
To avoid outright breaking third-party usages of the "viewer components" the `getGlobalEventBus` functionality is left intact, but a deprecation message is printed if the function is invoked.
The various examples are updated to *explicitly* initialize an `EventBus` instance, and provide that when initializing the relevant viewer components.
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`.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/prefer-const
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).
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.)
This was a blatant oversight in PR 10217, since there's obviously no `this.pageNumber` property anywhere in the `BaseViewer`. Luckily this shouldn't have caused any bugs, since the only call-site is also validating the `pageNumber` (but correctly that time).
*This patch is simple enough that I almost feel like I'm overlooking some trivial reason why this would be a bad idea.*
Note how in `{BaseViewer, PDFThumbnailViewer}.setDocument` we're always getting the *first* `pdfPage` in order to initialize all pages/thumbnails.
However, once that's done the first `pdfPage` is simply ignored and rendering of the first page thus requires calling `PDFDocumentProxy.getPage` yet again. (And in the `BaseViewer` case, it's even done once more after `onePageRenderedCapability` is resolved.)
All in all, I cannot see why we cannot just immediately set the first `pdfPage` and thus avoid an early round-trip to the API in the `_ensurePdfPageLoaded` method before rendering can begin.
Obviously the `_pagesRequests` functionality is *mainly* used when `disableAutoFetch` is set, but it will also be used during ranged/streamed loading of documents.
However, the `_pagesRequests` property is currently an Array which seems a bit strange:
- Arrays are zero-indexed, but the first element will never actually be set in the code.
- The `_pagesRequests` Array is never cleared, unless a new document is loaded, and once the `PDFDocumentProxy.getPage` call has resolved/rejected the element is just replaced by `null`.
- Unless the document is browsed *in order* the resulting `_pagesRequests` Array can also be arbitrarily sparse.
All in all, I don't believe that an Array is an appropriate data structure to use for this purpose.
This patch simply restores the behaviour that existed prior to PR 7697, since I cannot imagine that that was changed other than by pure accident.
As mentioned by a comment in `BaseViewer.setDocument`: "Printing is semi-broken with auto fetch disabled.", and note that since triggering of printing is a synchronous operation there's generally no easy way to load the missing data.
https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/7697/files#diff-529d1853ee1bba753a0fcb40ea778723L1114-L1118
For *very* long/large documents fetching all pages on load may cause quite bad performance, both memory and CPU wise. In order to at least slightly alleviate this, we can let the viewer treat these kind of documents[1] as if `disableAutoFetch` were set.
---
[1] One example of a really bad case is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1588435, which this patch should at least help somewhat. In general, for these cases, we'd probably need to implement switching between `PDFViewer`/`PDFSinglePageViewer` (as already tracked on GitHub) and use the latter for these kind of long documents.
Sometimes we also used `@return`, but `@returns` is what the JSDoc
documentation recommends. Even though `@return` works as an alias, it's
good to use the recommended syntax and to be consistent within the
project.
Sometimes we also used `@return` or `@returns`, but `@type` is what
the JSDoc documentation recommends. This also improves the documentation
because before this commit the types were not shown and now they are.
This functionality is very old, and pre-dates e.g. the introduction of the `EventBus` by a number of years. Rather than attaching two callback functions to every single `PDFPageView` instance, it's thus now possible to utilize the `EventBus` such that you only need a grand total of two listeners to achieve the same result.
For the `onAfterDraw` callback the replacement is particularly simple, given that a 'pagerendered' event is already being dispatched in the appropriate spot. An added benefit here is the ability to remove the event listener, since we only ever care about *one* (arbitrary) page being rendered for the `BaseViewer.onePageRendered` promise.
For the `onBeforeDraw` callback, a new 'pagerender' event was thus added to replace the callback.
When searching occurs for the first time in a document, the `textContent` of all pages will be fetched from the API. If there's a pending search operation when the document loads that will thus lead to a lot of `getTextContent` calls very early on, which may unnecessarily delay rendering of the first page. Generally, in the viewer, a number of non-essential API calls[1] will be deferred until the first page has been rendered, and there's no good reason as far as I can tell to handle searching differently.
