Please note that while the current code works, both in the viewer and the unit-tests, it can leave the `WorkerTransport._passwordCapability` Promise in a pending state.
In the `PasswordRequest` handler, in src/display/api.js, we're returning the Promise from a `capability` object (rather than just a "plain" Promise). While an error thrown anywhere within this handler was fortunately enough to propagate it to the Worker side, it won't cause the Promise (in `WorkerTransport._passwordCapability`) to actually be rejected.
Finally note that while we're now catching errors in the `PasswordRequest` handler, those errors are still propagated to the Worker side via the (now) rejected Promise and the existing `return this._passwordCapability.promise;` line.
This prevents warnings about uncaught Promises, with messages such as "Error: Worker was destroyed during onPassword callback", when running the unit-tests both in browsers *and* in Node.js/Travis.
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 is a final piece of clean-up of code that I recently wrote, after which I'm done :-)*
When the `getMainThreadWorkerMessageHandler` function was added, in PR 9385, it did so by basically introducing a `web/app.js` dependency in `src/display/api.js` through the `window.pdfjsNonProductionPdfWorker` property[1]. Even though this is limited to non-`PRODUCTION` mode, i.e. `gulp server`, it still seems unfortunate to have that sort of viewer dependency in the API code itself.
With the new, much nicer and shorter, names introduced in PR 9565 we can remove this non-`PRODUCTION` hack and just use `window.pdfjsWorker` in both the viewer and the API regardless of the build mode.
---
[1] It didn't seem correct to piggy-back on the `window.pdfjsDistBuildPdfWorker` property in non-`PRODUCTION` mode.
The `getPageSizeInches` method was implemented on `PDFDocumentProxy`, which seems conceptually wrong since the size property isn't global to the document but rather specific to each page. Hence the method is moved into `PDFPageProxy`, as `get pageSizeInches` instead to address this.
Despite the fact that new API functionality was implemented, no unit-tests were added. To prevent issues later on, we should *always* ensure that new functionality has at least some test-coverage; something that this patch also takes care of.
The new `PDFDocumentProperties._parsePageSize` method seemed unnecessary convoluted. Furthermore, in the "no data provided"-case it even returned incorrect data (an array, rather than the expected object).
Finally, the fallback strings didn't actually agree with the `en-US` locale. This inconsistency doesn't look too great, and it's thus addressed here as well.
With options being moved from the global `PDFJS` object and into `getDocument`, a side-effect is that we're now passing in a fair number of useless parameters to the various transport/network streams.
Even though this doesn't *currently* cause any problems, it nonetheless seem like a good idea to explicitly provide the parameters that are actually necessary.
One additional complication with removing this option from the global `PDFJS` object, is that the viewer currently needs to check `disableAutoFetch` in a couple of places. To address this I'm thus proposing adding a getter in `PDFDocumentProxy`, to allow checking the *actually* used values for a particular `getDocument` invocation.
In order to simplify things, the undocumented `enableStats` option was removed and `pdfBug` is now instead used to enabled general debugging *and* page request/rendering stats.
Considering that in the default viewer the `stats` was only used when debugging was also enabled, this simplification (code wise) definitely seem worthwhile to me.
Fallback to the built-in JPEG decoder when browser decoding fails, and attempt to handle JPEG images with DNL (Define Number of Lines) markers (issue 8614)
This works by making `PartialEvaluator.buildPaintImageXObject` wait for the success/failure of `loadJpegStream` on the API side *before* parsing continues.
Please note that in practice, it should be quite rare for the browser to fail loading/decoding of a JPEG image. In the general case, it should thus not be completely surprising if even `src/core/jpg.js` will fail to decode the image.
Since `loadJpegStream` is only used at a *single* spot in the code-base, and given that it's very heavily tailored to the calling code (since it relies on the data structure of `PDFObjects`), this patch simply inlines the code in `src/display/api.js` instead.
Despite this patch removing the `disableWorker` option itself, please note that we'll still fallback to loading the worker file(s) on the main-thread when running in environments without proper Web Worker support.
Furthermore it's still possible, even with this patch, to force the use of fake workers by manually loading the necessary file using a `<script>` tag on the main-thread.[1]
That way, the functionality of the now removed `SINGLE_FILE` build target and the resulting `build/pdf.combined.js` file can still be achieved simply by adding e.g. `<script src="build/pdf.worker.js"></script>` to the HTML (obviously with the path adjusted as needed).
Finally note that the `disableWorker` option is a performance footgun, and unfortunately many existing third-party examples actually use it without providing any sort of warning/justification.
---
[1] This approach is used in the default viewer, since certain kind of debugging may be easier if the code is running directly on the main-thread.
This method returns the currently used `workerSrc`, which thus allows obtaining the fallback `workerSrc` value (e.g. when the option wasn't set by the user).
Please note that this build target, and the resulting `build/pdf.combined.js` file, is equivalent to setting the `PDFJS.disableWorker` option to `true` which is a performance footgun.
It turns out that PR 9245 unfortunately broke benchmarking completely, sorry about that!
The bug is that we were attempting to reset the current instance of `StatTimer`, instead of creating a new one as was previously done. By resetting the current instance, the `StatTimer` data fetched in `test/driver.js` is now wiped out since it points to the *same* underlying object.
This re-use of a `StatTimer` instance was asked for during review, and unfortunately I didn't test this thoroughly enough before submitting the final version of the PR.[1]
---
[1] Note that while I did test the benchmarking scripts with that PR *before* initially submitting it, I did however forget to do that after addressing the review comments which might explain why this problem went unnoticed.
This patch updates the `IPDFStreamReader` interface and ensures that the interface/implementation of `network.js`, `fetch_stream.js`, `node_stream.js`, and `transport_stream.js` all match properly.
The unit-tests are also adjusted, to more closely replicate the actual behaviour of the various actual `IPDFStreamReader` implementations.
Finally, this patch adjusts the use of the Content-Disposition filename when setting the title in the viewer, and adds `PDFDocumentProperties` support as well.
The `fetch` API is only supported for http(s), even in Chrome extensions.
Because of this limitation, we should use the XMLHttpRequest API when the
requested URL is not a http(s) URL.
Fixes#9361
I recall being confused as to the purpose of the `encrypted` property all the way back when working on PR 4750.
Looking at the history, this property was added in PR 1698 when password support was added to the API/viewer. However, its only purpose seem to have been to facilitate the addition of a `isEncrypted` function in the API. That function never, as far as I can tell, saw any use and was unceremoniously removed in PR 4144.
Since we want to avoid sending all non-essential data early during initial document loading (e.g. PR 4750), it seems correct to get rid of the `encrypted` property. Especially since it hasn't even been exposed in the API for over three years, with no complaints that I'm aware of.
Finally note that the `encrypt` property on the `XRef` instance isn't tied to the code that's being removed here. Given that we're calling `PDFDocument.parse` during `createDocumentHandler` in the worker which, via `PDFDocument.setup`, calls `XRef.parse` where the `Encrypt` data (if it exists) is always parsed.
Unless the debugging tools (i.e. `PDFBug`) are enabled, or the `browsertest` is running, the `PDFPageProxy.stats` aren't actually used for anything.
Rather than initializing unnecessary `StatTimer` instances, we can simply re-use *one* dummy class (with static methods) for every page. Note that by using a dummy `StatTimer` in this way, rather than letting `PDFPageProxy.stats` be undefined, we don't need to guard *every* single stats collection callsite.
Since it wouldn't make much sense to attempt to use `PDFPageProxy.stats` when stat collection is disabled, it was instead changed to a "private" property (i.e. `PDFPageProxy._stats`) and a getter was added for accessing `PDFPageProxy.stats`. This getter will now return `null` when stat collection is disabled, making that case easy to handle.
For benchmarking purposes, the test-suite used to re-create the `StatTimer` after loading/rendering each page. However, modifying properties on various API code from the outside in this way seems very error-prone, and is an anti-pattern that we really should avoid at all cost. Hence the `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` method was modified to accept an optional parameter, which will take care of resetting `this.stats` when necessary, and `test/driver.js` was updated accordingly.
Finally, a tiny bit more validation was added on the viewer side, to ensure that all the code we're attempting to access is defined when handling `PDFPageProxy` stats.
