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).
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.)
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.
I made some mistakes when trying to make the content_disposition.js
compatible with non-modern browsers (IE/Edge).
Notably, text decoding was usually skipped because of the inverted
logical check at the top of `textdecode`.
I verified that this new version works as expected, as follows:
1. Visit 55c71eb44e/test/
and get test-content-disposition.js
also get test-content-disposition.node.js if using Node.js,
or get test-content-disposition.html if you use a browser.
2. Modify `test-content-disposition.node.js` (or the HTML file) and
change `../extension/content-disposition.js` to `PDFJS-content_disposition.js`
3. Copy the `getFilenameFromContentDispositionHeader` function from
`content_disposition.js` (i.e. the file without the trailing exports)
and save it as `PDFJS-content_disposition.js`.
4. Run the tests (`node test-content-disposition.node.js` or by opening
`test-content-disposition.html` in a browser).
5. Confirm that there are no failures: "Finished all tests (0 failures)"
The code has a best-efforts fallback for Microsoft Edge, which lacks the
TextDecoder API. The fallback only supports the common UTF-8 encoding.
To simulate this in a test, modify `PDFJS-content_disposition.js` and
deliberately throw an error before `new TextDecoder`. There will be two
failures because we don't want to include too much code to support text
decoding for non-UTF-8 encodings in Edge
