With `PDFFindController` instances no longer (directly) depending on
`BaseViewer` instances, we can pass a single `findController` when
initializing a viewer, similar to other components.
This removes the dependency on a `PDFViewer` instance from the find
controller, which makes it more similar to other components and makes it
easier to unit test with a mock link service.
Finally, we remove the search capabilities from the SVG example since it
doesn't work there because there is no separate text layer.
Now it follows the same pattern as e.g., the document properties
component, which allows us to have one instance of the find controller
and set a new document to search upon switching documents.
Moreover, this allows us to get rid of the dependency on `pdfViewer` in
order to fetch the text content for a page. This is working towards
getting rid of the `pdfViewer` dependency upon initializing the
component entirely in future commits.
Finally, we make the `reset` method private since it's not supposed to
be used from the outside anymore now that `setDocument` takes care of
this, similar to other components.
This way the resetting of `PDFLinkService`/`PDFDocumentProperties` instances, as is done in `PDFViewerApplication.close`, only requires passing in *one* `null` argument instead of two.
The built-in PDF Viewer (in Firefox) cannot use the browser findbar when PDF files are embedded in e.g. iframe/object tags, and the PDF.js findbar (i.e. `PDFFindBar`) will thus be used instead in those cases.
This is slightly problematic, since the `MOZCENTRAL` version of the viewer uses a special, slimmed down, version of the `l10n.js` file that doesn't (currently) support plural forms. To prevent the matchesCounter from breaking completely in this edge-case, temporarily hard-code the plural form to use the default `[other]` version of the locale strings.
This prevents the findbar from intermittently displaying `0 of {number} matches`, which *could* theoretically happen for large and/or slow loading documents.
The find controller should only coordinate finding a string in the
document and should not be responsible for presenting the matches to the
user. The text layer builder already contains the logic to render the
matches in the viewer, so it should also take care of scrolling the
selected match into view.
The find controller already has quite a lot of state to maintain. We can
avoid keeping track of this member variable because when the find
controller is reset, so is the extract text promises array. Therefore,
we can just check if that array contains items or not to determine if
text extraction already started.
Moreover, there is no need to reset the `pageContents` array since the
`reset` method already takes care of that.
This is an unfortunate oversight on my part, which I stumbled upon when (locally) testing the `mozilla-central` follow-up patch necessary to enable the matches counter in the built-in PDF viewer.
The property is intended to contain a reference to a DOM element, which not only is nowhere to be found *now* but appears to never have existed in the first place.
As outlined in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1282759 the internal Firefox name for the feature is `entireWord`, hence that name is used here as well for consistency (with "Whole words" being limited to the UI).
Given existing limitations of the PDF.js search functionality, e.g. the existing problems of searching across "new lines", there's some edge-cases where "Whole words" searching will ignore (valid) results.
However, considering that this is a pre-existing issue related to the way that the find controller joins text-content together, that shouldn't have to block this new feature in my opionion.
*Please note:* In order to enable this feature in the `MOZCENTRAL` version, a small follow-up patch for [PdfjsChromeUtils.jsm](https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/browser/extensions/pdfjs/content/PdfjsChromeUtils.jsm) will be required once this has landed in `mozilla-central`.
For the `PDFFindBar` implementation, similar to the native Firefox findbar, the matches count displayed is now limited to a (hopefully) reasonable value.
*Please note:* In order to enable this feature in the `MOZCENTRAL` version, a follow-up patch will be required once this has landed in `mozilla-central`.
This patch is the first step to be able to eventually get rid of the `attachDOMEventsToEventBus` function, by allowing `EventBus` instances to simply re-dispatch most[1] events to the DOM.
Note that the re-dispatching is purposely implemented to occur *after* all registered `EventBus` listeners have been serviced, to prevent the ordering issues that necessitated the duplicated page/scale-change events.
The DOM events are currently necessary for the `mozilla-central` tests, see https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/browser/extensions/pdfjs/test, and perhaps also for custom deployments of the PDF.js default viewer.
Once this have landed, and been successfully uplifted to `mozilla-central`, I intent to submit a patch to update the test-code to utilize the new preference. This will thus, eventually, make it possible to remove the `attachDOMEventsToEventBus` functionality.
*Please note:* I've successfully ran all `mozilla-central` tests locally, with these patches applied.

[1] The exception being events that originated on the `window` or `document`, since those are already globally available anyway.
The new events follow the same naming pattern as the 'pagesinit'/'pagesloaded' events dispatched on `BaseViewer` instances, and the intention is to allow the eventual removal of 'documentload'.
[api-minor] Add an `IsLinearized` property to the `PDFDocument.documentInfo` getter, to allow accessing the linearization status through the API (via `PDFDocumentProxy.getMetadata`)
When updating Preferences using the `set` method, the input is carefully validated. However, no validation is (currently) done when a `BasePreferences` instance is created, which probably isn't that great. Hence this patch that simply ignores, to not unnecessarily break loading of the viewer itself, any invalid Preferences.
Given that the various Preferences are currently, and have been for quite some time, only used when initializing `PDFViewerApplication` re-loading them when a new PDF file is opened in the viewer is essentially a no-op.
Furthermore, with the only usage of `BasePreferences.reload` now gone, the value of that method seems questionable at best. In the event that the functionality is actually needed again, similar to the `ViewHistory`, it'd probably make more sense to simply replace `PDFViewerApplication.preferences` with a new `BasePreferences` instance instead (using e.g. `DefaultExternalServices.createPreferences`).
Given that *all* Preferences are already fetched in `PDFViewerApplication._readPreferences`, the amount of boilerplate/duplication can be considerably reduced with the addition of a `BasePreferences.getAll` method.
The only reason that this check ever existed in the first place, is that originally there was a global `PDFJS.openExternalLinkInNewWindow` option which was then subsumed by the (more generic) `PDFJS.externalLinkTarget` option. (The `externalLinkTarget` has since been moved into a `PDFLinkService` option, as part of PDF.js version `2.0`.)
Hence, during the period where both `PDFJS.openExternalLinkInNewWindow` and `PDFJS.externalLinkTarget` existed side-by-side, there was a need to allow the former one to override the latter one (for backward compatibility purposes). However, that's no longer the case, and this extra `externalLinkTarget` check can now be removed.
*This was a stupid error on my part; sorry about breaking this!*
With the current code, the value of the `externalLinkTarget` option is now (potentially) updated *after* the viewer components have been initialized. For the "viewer in iframe/object tag" case, the result is that the value of the `externalLinkTarget` option isn't adjusted as intended any more.
Without providing useful (custom) error messages for the `no-restricted-globals` rule, see https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-restricted-globals, it's quite likely that the rule will be incorrectly disabled rather than the required globals being imported as intended.
To reduced duplication of the `no-restricted-globals` rule in multiple `.eslintrc` files, it's instead moved to the top-level `.eslintrc` file and disabled as needed on a folder/file basis outside of `/src` and `/web`.
*Another small piece of clean-up of code I've previously written; follow-up to PR 8775.*
Importing `createPromiseCapability`, and then using it in just *one* spot, seems unnecessary since the `waitOnEventOrTimeout` function may just as well return a regular `Promise` directly.
Given that the non-default Spread modes (currently) doesn't affect the page layout when horizontal scrolling is enabled, having the Spread buttons appear active when clicking them appears to do *nothing* is probably confusing rather than helpful to users.
If the current viewer is a `PDFSinglePageViewer` instance the Scroll/Spread modes are no-ops, hence displaying buttons that do *nothing* when clicked will probably do very little besides confuse users.
The names 'resetscrollmode'/'resetspreadmode' were probably *not* great choices, given that the only thing being reset are toolbar buttons and not the actual Scroll/Spread modes. Furthermore, there's really no need for two separate events here.
The patch also adds a comment that ought to have been included in PR 9040, to prevent future refactoring/removing of what may appear to be an unnecessary `Promise.resolve` call.
This moves/exposes the `URL` polyfill similarily to the existing `ReadableStream` polyfill, rather than exposing it globally, to avoid interfering with any "outside" code.
Both the `URL` and `ReadableStream` polyfills are now exposed on the `pdfjsLib` object, such that they are accessible to the viewer components.
Furthermore, the `no-restricted-globals` ESLint rule is also enabled to prevent accidental usage of the native `URL`/`ReadableStream` implementations directly in the `src/` and `web/` folders; see also https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-restricted-globals
Addresses the remaining TODO in https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/projects/6
Rather than having to manually call a method on `PDFFindController` instances from `BaseViewer.setDocument`, thus essentially having to resolve the private `_firstPagePromise` from the "outside", this can be done easily with the 'pagesinit' event dispatched on the `eventBus` instead.
Please note this particular `PDFFindController` code pre-dates the `eventBus` by almost three years, which should explain why the code looks the way it does.
Since the Scroll/Spread modes are now document specific, as all other properties such as page/scale/rotation, ensure that the toolbar is always correctly reset.
Since other viewer state, such as the current page/scale/rotation[1], are not available as `BaseViewer` constructor options, this makes the Scroll/Spread modes stand out quite a bit. Hence it probably makes sense to remove/deprecate this, to avoid inconsistent and possibly confusing state in this code.
---
[1] These properties are *purposely* not available in the constructor, since attempting to set them before a document is loaded has number of issues; please refer to https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/8539#issuecomment-309706629 for additional details.
Since all the other viewer methods use the getter/setter pattern, e.g. for setting page/scale/rotation, the way that the Scroll/Spread modes are set thus stands out. For consistency, this really ought to use the same pattern as the rest of the `BaseViewer`. (To avoid breaking third-party implementations, the old methods are kept around as aliases.)
Note how the other "...OnLoad" preferences will allow a *non-default* value to always override a history entry. To improve overall consistency for the viewer options, and to reduce possibly confusing behaviour, this patch changes the `scrollModeOnLoad`/`spreadModeOnLoad` preferences to behave as all the other ones.
For some reason, these weren't added to `AppOptions` despite actually being set and read from `web/app.js`. Not adding them creates inconsistencies, since all other options *are* present in `web/app_options.js`.
This property isn't accessed anywhere in the `web/app.js` file, and is also not being reset in `PDFViewerApplication.close`. Hence it seems that it can simply be removed, especially since the fingerprint is already synchronously available through `PDFViewerApplication.pdfDocument.fingerprint` (provided that a document is loaded).
With the current code, the location in the viewer could change *well* after the user has started to interact with the viewer (for very large and/or slow loading documents). Attempt to reduce the likelyhood of that happening, by adding an upper bound to the time spent waiting before attempting to re-apply the initial position.
Rather than using a "special" property to check if a `ViewHistory` database entry existed on load, it seems that you could just as well check for the existence of one of the actually needed properties instead (here 'page' is used).
This way we can avoid storing what, more of less, amounts to useless state, which will help reduce the size of the `ViewHistory` database. Given that we don't directly, nor need to, validate the `ViewHistory` data but rely on other parts of the code-base to do so, the existance of an 'exists' property doesn't in and of itself really add much utility.
Finally, to simplify the implementation the 'exists' property won't be actively removed from the `ViewHistory` data. Instead we'll simply stop adding 'exists' when writing `ViewHistory` data, and rely on the existing pruning of old entries to eventually remove any remnants of 'exists' from storage.
Note how, in the current code, only *one* old history entry would ever be removed. That would mean that if e.g. the `cacheSize` is reduced, it would potentially require loading of multiple files before the database would be correctly pruned.
Furthermore, in the case where the database was empty on load there's no need to attempt to shrink it, since trying to reduce the size of an *empty* array won't do much :-)
Since the current page will be explicitly scrolled into view *directly* afterwards anyway (compare with e.g. the `pagesRotation` code), trying to maintain the current position when re-applying the zoom level during changing of Scroll modes is redundant.
Note how in `BaseViewer.forceRendering` the Scroll mode is used to determine how pre-rendering will work. Currently this is broken in Presentation Mode, if horizontal scrolling was enabled prior to entering fullscreen.
Furthermore, there's a few additional cases where the `this.scrollMode === ScrollMode.HORIZONTAL` check is pointless either in Presentation Mode or when a `PDFSinglePageViewer` instance is used.
Since the Scroll/Spread modes doesn't make (any) sense in `PDFSinglePageViewer` instances, the general structure of these methods can be improved to reflect that.
Given that this method is a no-op in `PDFSinglePageViewer`, similar to `_regroupSpreads`, let's improve the general code structure by simply moving the method.
There's no good reason to iterate through an arbitrary number of DOM elements this way, since a document could contain thousands of pages, when everything can be easily removed at once; compare with e.g. `BaseViewer._resetView` and `PDFThumbnailViewer._resetView`.
Furthermore given that it's a `PDFViewer` instance, the `this.viewer` property can be accessed directly. Besides, `_setDocumentViewerElement` only exists as a helper method for `setDocument` in the base class and none of this code applies for `PDFSinglePageViewer` instances either.
The Secondary Toolbar buttons for, not to mention the actual toggling of, Scroll/Spread modes are currently completely broken in older browsers (such as IE11).
As a follow-up, it'd probably be a good idea to try and find a *feature complete* `classList` polyfill that could be used instead, but this patch at least addresses the immediate regression.
Please refer to the compatibility information in https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/classList#Browser_compatibility
The `onOpenWithURL` method, in `PDFViewerApplication.initPassiveLoading`, accepts a `originalURL` parameter which is then passed on to `PDFViewerApplication.open` as is. However, the latter method expects the name of the parameter to be `originalUrl` (note the casing), meaning that `getDocument` will fail in this case.
For consistency, and to avoid confusion, the renaming is done in `web/chromecom.js` as well.
*The danger of fixing one bug is that it can, sometimes too easily, cause another one in the process; sorry for not catching this when testing PR 9816 locally.*
When the *entire* viewer becomes narrow enough, as controlled by the `@media all and (max-width: 840px)` media query, the sidebar should (semi-transparently) overlay the `viewerContainer` instead of moving it horizontally. Unfortunately the changes made in PR 9816 caused the relevant CSS rules to be skipped, because of how the inheritance model works in CSS.
I'm well aware that `!important` is usually advised against, since it "breaks" the CSS inheritance model. However in this case it seemed reasonable to use it, to not only fix the bug at hand but to also prevent similar bugs from occurring in the future.
This is a regression from PR 8993; it causes the pages to be offset horizontally in Presentation Mode, if and only if the sidebar is currently open when the user triggers Presentation Mode.
Please note that while this doesn't seem to affect Firefox, both Chrome and IE are however affected.
Interestingly enough, despite the Chrome extension being affected as well, I cannot find any issue filed about this. (Either Presentation Mode isn't used much at all, or users don't open the sidebar before entering Presentation Mode.)
It appears that Microsoft silently fixed the problem that required disabling of fullscreen mode, in e.g. `iframe`s, in IE 11; please see issue 4711 and PR 5525 for historical context.
Unfortunately my Google-fu isn't strong enough to find any *official* information regarding the fixing of the browser bug in IE. However testing of the default viewer in IE 11, with this patch applied, it now appears that Presentation Mode is working correctly even in an `iframe` in IE 11.
Further anecdotal evidence that the bug is in fact fixed, is for example that jQuery previously contained a work-around for the IE bug. However, that's removed over two years ago now; see ff1a0822f7 and the issues referenced there.
Given that the default viewer isn't intended to be used as-is anyway (in custom deployments), it didn't seem necessary to keep the `disableFullscreen` option around since it was *only* ever added for compatibility purposes.
Fixes 9585.
Not only is the `Util.loadScript` helper function unused on the Worker side, even trying to use it there would throw an Error (since `document` isn't defined/available in Workers).
Hence this helper function is moved, and its code modernized slightly by having it return a Promise rather than needing a callback function.
Finally, to reduced code duplication, the "new" loadScript function is exported and used in the viewer.
This should provide a better out-of-the-box experience when using PDF.js in a Node.js environment, since it's missing native support for both `@font-face` and `Image`.
Please note that this change *only* affects the default values, hence it's still possible for an API consumer to override those values when calling `getDocument`.
Also, prevents "ReferenceError: document is not defined" errors, when running the unit-tests in Node.js/Travis.
This commit adds `scrollModeOnLoad` and `spreadModeOnLoad` preferences
that control the default viewer state when opening a new document for
the first time.
This commit also contains a minor refactoring of some of the option UI
rendering code in extensions/chromium/options/options.js, as I couldn't
bear creating two more functions nearly identical to the four that
already existed.
