This patch provides an overall simpler *and* more consistent way of handling the `viewport` parameter during printing of XFA forms, since it's now again guaranteed to always be an instance of `PageViewport`.
Furthermore, for anyone attempting to e.g. implement custom printing of XFA forms this probably cannot hurt either.
This is first of all consistent with all of the other (similar) factories, and secondly it will also simplify a future addition of a corresponding `NodeSVGFactory` (if that's ever deemed necessary).
Given that these factories are being used in *different* files, for Browser respectively Node.js implementations, it seems reasonable to move them into their own file instead.
The rotation handling that's currently living in `PDFViewerApplication` is *very* old, and pre-dates the introduction of the viewer components by years.
As can be seen in the `BaseViewer.pagesRotation` setter, we're not actually normalizing the rotation as intended and instead rely on the caller to handle that correctly. This is first of all inconsistent, given how other setters are implemented, and secondly it could also lead to the rotation being set to a value outside of the `[0, 360)`-range.
Finally, for improved consistency the rotation handling in `PageViewport` is updated similarly. Please note that this case, it's *not* changing the pre-existing logic.
While there is nothing *outright* wrong with the existing implementation, it can however lead to increased memory usage in one particular case (that I completely overlooked when implementing this):
For "data:"-URLs, which by definition contains the entire PDF document and can thus be arbitrarily large, we obviously want to avoid sending, storing, and/or logging the "raw" docBaseUrl in that case.
To address this, this patch makes the following changes:
- Ignore any non-string in the `docBaseUrl` option passed to `getDocument`, since those are unsupported anyway, already on the main-thread.
- Ignore "data:"-URLs in the `docBaseUrl` option passed to `getDocument`, to avoid having to send what could potentially be a *very* long string to the worker-thread.
- Parse the `docBaseUrl` option *directly* in the `BasePdfManager`-constructors, on the worker-thread, to avoid having to store the "raw" docBaseUrl in the first place.
It seems reasonable to place this alongside the *similar* `getFilenameFromUrl` helper function. This way, with the changes in the next patch, we also avoid having to expose the `isDataScheme` function in the API itself and we instead expose `getPdfFilenameFromUrl` in the API (which feels overall more appropriate).
There's built-in ESLint rule, see `sort-imports`, to ensure that all `import`-statements are sorted alphabetically, since that often helps with readability.
Unfortunately there's no corresponding rule to sort `export`-statements alphabetically, however there's an ESLint plugin which does this; please see https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-plugin-sort-exports
The only downside here is that it's not automatically fixable, but the re-ordering is a one-time "cost" and the plugin will help maintain a *consistent* ordering of `export`-statements in the future.
*Note:* To reduce the possibility of introducing any errors here, the re-ordering was done by simply selecting the relevant lines and then using the built-in sort-functionality of my editor.
I completely missed this previously, but we obviously should remove the scriptElement as well to *really* clean-up everything properly.
Given that there's multiple existing usages of `loadScript` in the code-base, the safest/quickest solution seemed to be to have call-sites opt-in to remove the scriptElement using a new parameter.
*This is a recent regression, which I stumbled upon while working on cleaning-up the gulpfile related to `pdf.sandbox.js` building.*
By placing the `ColorConverters` functionality in the `src/display/display_utils.js` file, you end up including a *significant* chunk of the `pdf.js` file in the built `pdf.scripting.js`/`pdf.sandbox.js` files.
Given that I cannot imagine that this was actually intended, since it inflates the built files with unnecessary/unused code, this moves `ColorConverters` to a new file instead (thus breaking the dependencies).
To hopefully reduce the risk future bugs, along these lines, a big comment is also placed at the top of the new file.
Finally, the `ColorConverters` is converted to a class with static methods, since this felt slightly cleaner overall.
Previously this rule has been enabled in the `web/` folder, and in select files in the `src/` sub-folders.
Note that a number of the files in the `src/display/` folder were already enforcing the `no-var` rule, and thanks to Prettier the necessary re-writing will be (mostly) handled automatically.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-var
This moves, and slightly simplifies, code that's currently residing in the unit-test utils into the actual library, such that it's bundled with `GENERIC`-builds and used in e.g. the API-code.
As an added bonus, this also brings out-of-the-box support for CMaps in e.g. the Node.js examples.
As evident from the code, `PageViewport` only supports[1] `rotation` values which are a multiple of 90 degrees. Besides it being somewhat difficult to imagine meaningful use-cases for a non-multiple of 90 degrees `rotation`, the code also becomes both simpler and more efficient by not having to consider arbitrary `rotation` values.
However, any invalid rotation will *silently* fallback to assume zero `rotation` which probably isn't great for e.g. `PDFPageProxy.getViewport` in the API. Hence this patch, which will now enforce that only valid `rotation` values are accepted.

[1] As far as I can tell, from looking through the history, nothing else has ever been supported either.
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).
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.
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`.
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.)
Note that most (reasonably) modern browsers have supported this for a while now, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ReadableStream#Browser_compatibility
By moving the polyfill into `src/shared/compatibility.js` we can thus get rid of the need to manually export/import `ReadableStream` and simply use it directly instead.
The only change here which *could* possibly lead to a difference in behavior is in the `isFetchSupported` function. Previously we attempted to check for the existence of a global `ReadableStream` implementation, which could now pass (assuming obviously that the preceding checks also succeeded).
However I'm not sure if that's a problem, since the previous check only confirmed the existence of a native `ReadableStream` implementation and not that it actually worked correctly. Finally it *could* just as well have been a globally registered polyfill from an application embedding the PDF.js library.
I happened to look at this code and the way that the link target is set seems unecessarily convoluted, since we're using `Object.values` and `Array.prototype.includes` for *every* link being parsed.
Given that the number of link targets are so few, the easist solution honestly seem to be to just use a `switch` statement to do the link target mapping.
This argument is a left-over from older API code, where we unconditionally initialized `StatTimer` instances for every page. For quite some time that's only been done when `pdfBug` is set, hence it seems unnecessary to keep this functionality.
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.
By utilizing a base "class", things become significantly simpler. Unfortunately the new `BaseException` cannot be a proper ES6 class and just extend `Error`, since the SystemJS dependency doesn't seem to play well with that.
Note also that we (generally) need to keep the `name` property on the actual `...Exception` object, rather than on its prototype, since the property will otherwise be dropped during the structured cloning used with `postMessage`.
There's no good reason for calling this helper function without a `url` parameter, and this way we can prevent that from happening.
Note how the `PDFOutlineViewer` call-site was already doing the right thing here, and only the `LinkAnnotationElement` call-site needed a small adjustment to make it work.
This includes the information in the core and display layers. The
date parsing logic from the document properties is rewritten according
to the specification and now includes unit tests.
Moreover, missing unit tests for the color of a popup annotation have
been added.
Finally the styling of the popup is changed slightly to make the text a
bit smaller (it's currently quite large in comparison to other viewers)
and to make the drop shadow a bit more subtle. The former is done to be
able to easily include the modification date in the popup similar to how
other viewers do this.
This will further help reduce the amount of image data that's currently being held alive, by explicitly removing the `src` attribute.
Please note that this is mostly relevant for browsers which do not support `URL.createObjectURL`, or where `disableCreateObjectURL` was manually set by the user, since `blob:` URLs will be revoked (see the previous patch).
However, using `about:memory` (in Firefox) it does seem that this may also be generally helpful, given that calling `URL.revokeObjectURL` won't invalidate the image data itself (as far as I can tell).
Natively supported JPEG images are sent as-is, using a `blob:` or possibly a `data` URL, to the main-thread for loading/decoding.
However there's currently no attempt at releasing these resources, which are held alive by `blob:` URLs, which seems unfortunately given that images can be arbitrarily large.
As mentioned in https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/createObjectURL the lifetime of these URLs are tied to the document, hence they are not being removed when a page is cleaned-up/destroyed (e.g. when being removed from the `PDFPageViewBuffer` in the viewer).
This is easy to test with the help of `about:memory` (in Firefox), which clearly shows the number of `blob:` URLs becomming arbitrarily large *without* this patch. With this patch however the `blob:` URLs are immediately release upon clean-up as expected, and the memory consumption should thus be considerably reduced for long documents with (simple) JPEG images.
Given that the function is (purposely) independent of the verbosity level and that its message is worded to only apply on the main-thread, there's no reason to duplicate this across the built `pdf.js`/`pdf.worker.js` files.
