`--nosearchbar` option of `kiwix-serve` (despite its misleading name)
was used to disable the entire taskbar. This commit accounts for the
existence of that option only partially:
1. Links to books on the welcome/library page are affected - by default
books are displayed in the viewer, but in a kiwix-serve instance run
with --nosearchbar books are loaded in the top window.
2. The `/viewer` endpoint is enabled unconditionally, so if anyone
enters the viewer URL in the address bar they will see books in the
viewer.
The only place that the root link is now used is in /skin/index.js,
so added it in static/templates/index.html. But it seems that nothing
prevents us from from switching from aboslute paths to relative paths
in /skin/index.js, which will eliminate the need for the root link
altogether.
As a result of this change content is never decorated by kiwix serve.
This change centers tiles on welcome page to give a more consistent whitespace look on both sides.
For this, the layout in Isotope JS is changed to masonry.
This change introduces filtering by tags.
To filter, the user can click on the tag name and it will filter it.
A label is added (clickable) to show the tag filter, it can be clicked to remove the filter
In template resources (found under static/templates), strings of the
form "PATH/TO/STATIC/RESOURCE?KIWIXCACHEID" are expanded into
"PATH/TO/STATIC/RESOURCE?cacheid=CACHEIDVAL" where CACHEIDVAL is a
8-digit hexadecimal hash digest of the file at
static/PATH/TO/STATIC/RESOURCE.
While [spec](https://wiki.openzim.org/wiki/Metadata#Favicon) says that the favicon
should be a 48x48 image, ZIM creators might not respect it.
If a ZIM contains a larger favicon, the UI is broken. This fixes it ans ensures all
favicon have equal sizes, removing the unpleasing lack of harmony that we can see sometimes.
Note that ZIM will smaller size favicon would get blurry as those would be upscaled.
This code is mainly copied from kiwix-tools.
But :
- Move all the response thing in a new class Response.
- This Response class is responsible to handle all the MHD_response
configuration. This way the server handle a global object and do
no call to MHD_response*
- Server uses a lot more the templating system with mustache.
There are still few regex operations (because we need to
change a content already existing).
- By default, the server serves the content using the id as name.
- Server creates a new Searcher per request. This way, we don't have
to protect the search for multi-thread and we can do several search
in the same time.
- search results are not cached, this will allow future improvement in the
search algorithm.
- the home page is not cached.
- Few more verbose information (number of request served, time spend to
respond to a request).
TOOD:
- Readd interface selection.
- Do Android wrapper.
- Remove KiwixServer (who use a external process).
