If `kiwix-serve` is run with the `--nosearchbar` option the toolbar is
disabled (hidden) in its viewer.
Note however that certain actions performed by the viewer merely with
the purpose of keeping the toolbar up-to-date are still carried out.
Auto hiding of the toolbars on narrow screens works only for the first
page loaded in the viewer. Navigating to other pages interferes with
autohiding as follows:
- If the toolbar was hidden, it stays hidden.
- If the toolbar was not hidden, it loses the ability to autohide.
`--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.
Made the viewer respect the `--blockexternal` and `--nolibrarybutton`
options of `kiwix-serve`. Those options are passed to the viewer
via the dynamically generated resource `/viewer_settings.js`.
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.
Before this fix there were two issues with the taskbar search box:
1. The book used for the suggestions API was resolved only once during
the page load and didn't change during navigation.
2. The current book could not be resolved from a search URL.
Now both issues are fixed.
The greenish taskbar placeholder is gone. The appearance of the old taskbar
is restored. However the taskbar currently contains only the library
button (but the latter leads to the currently blank welcome page).
Foundation for never-ending friendship between viewer_taskbar.js and
viewer.html has been established by a slight change in how the book name
is obtained and commenting out the rest of the code.
Before this fix, browsing history didn't work at all. Now it mostly
works but there are still some quirks that must be debugged further.
Since session history handling turns out to be a rather complex topic
(see https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/history.html) the work in
that direction will be postponed until other features reach a comparable
level of readiness.
If the server is initialized with a library.xml file, then the id
specified in the XML file is used (rather than the UUID recorded in the
ZIM file).
Note that in test/data/library.xml the book ids are fake and
different from the real ZIM IDs; that file was created for testing
of the /catalog endpoint which doesn't access ZIM content, so the
the same ZIM file zimfile.zim was added to library.xml three times as
three different books (with unique human-friendly ids). This explains
the diff in test/library_server.cpp.
Now after porting index.js and taskbar.js to vanilla JS, it is time to remove files.
Deleted static/skin/jquery-ui
Updated customIndexPage template in README.md.
Thank you for your service, jQuery :)
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
This removes the onclick handler around the reset-filter link which redirected to '/?lang='
Everything under the handler was already done on window.onload
Previously, if the following steps were executed:
1. Click a book tile/visit an unrelated link from the address bar
2. Press back button
Then forward history was discarded (forward button gets disabled).
This happened because of the window.history.pushState on every window.onload event. This led to the same link being added in history and thus discarding the previous "forward-history"
This change adds a condition to only push the current state if the queries are not same.
In #727 inline CSS [was extracted](e4a4b2f961)
from `static/templates/no_search_result.html` into a separate stylesheet
resource. The purpose was to later
1. get rid of the custom `static/templates/no_search_result.html` error
template and use a general purpose error template instead (this was
accomplished by PR #744).
2. deduplicate the CSS code between `static/templates/no_search_result.html` and
`static/templates/search_result.html` by making the latter to also refer to
an internal CSS resource rather than containing inline stylesheet code.
While preparing to implement the 2nd point, I figured out that
`kiwix::SearchRenderer` is used as a component in `kiwix-desktop` too,
which probably would be upset by a link to a libkiwix's internal CSS resource.
This commit documents that finding.
Revert to the plain old 'i18n_resources_list.txt' file.
Auto discovering of i18n file has a main flaw (and a small bug):
- The main flaw is that rerun the configure will not detect new
translation files. It means that if we use cache in our CI,
new translation will not be included.
- The bug is that on Windows, meson fails with a error about a non existent
`` (empty) file name. I suppose it is because python replace
`\n` by `\r\n` on Windows, and the the `.strip().split('\n')` keeps empty
lines.
The small bug could be fixed, but the main flaw make the whole better if
we use a script to generate the listing.
This commit is somehow a half revert of 2eff5b55a6
Previously, on clicking Magnet, we were redirecting to a different site:
https://download.kiwix.org/zim/other/xyzBookWithDate.zim.magnet
This had the real magnet link as page content
Now we use the real magnet link in the href, thus not redirecting and starting the download right away.
Fix#767
Excluding qqq.json any .json file under static/i18n is now considered to
be a i18n resource. This eliminates the need to update the
i18n_resources_list.txt file every time a new language json file is
added. Thus Translatewiki PRs will not require extra work.
The story of search_results.css
static/skin/search_results.css was extracted from
static/templates/no_search_result.html before the latter was dropped.
static/templates/no_search_result.html in turn seems to be a copied and
edited version of static/templates/search_result.html.
In the context of exploratory work on the internationalization of
kiwix-serve (PR #679) I noticed duplication of inline CSS across those
two templates and intended to eliminated it. That goal was not fully
accomplished (static/templates/search_result.html remained untouched)
because by that time PR #679 grew too big and the efforts were diverted
into splitting it into smaller ones. Thus search_results.css slipped
into one of those small PRs, without making much sense because nothing
really justifies preserving custom CSS in the "Fulltext search unavailable"
error page.
At the same time, it served as the only case where a link to a cacheable
resource is generated in C++ code (rather than found in a template).
This poses certain problems to the handling of cache-ids. A workaround
is to expel the URL into a template so that it is processed by
`kiwix-resources`. This commit merely demonstrates that solution. But
whether it should be preserved (or rather the "Fulltext search
unavailable" page should be deprived of CSS) is questionable.
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.
At this point a potential issue has been revealed. Now we produce
the final HTML via 2-level template expansion
1. Render parameterized messages
2. Render the HTML template
In which templates we should use double mustache "{{}}" (HTML-escaping)
tags and where we may use triple mustache "{{{}}}" (non-escaping) tags?
Introduced a new resource compiler script kiwix-compile-i18n that
processes i18n string data stored in JSON files and generates sorted C++
tables of string keys and values for all languages.
The "Fulltext search unavailable" error page is now generated using the
static/templates/error.html template. Also added two test cases checking
that error page.
404.html no longer contains anything specific to the 404 error and will
henceforth serve (with some enhancements) as a general purpose error
page template.
Earlier querySelector for download button was returning a div, on which we called the getAttribute function hence returning null
This now returns a <span> element which returns the correct link with getAttribute
As we render the entry's xml in a separated steps, we need to pass the
rootLocation to all the internal rendering.
Testing with and without root is not so easy.
I've simply made all server tests using a ROOT prefix.
We can assume that if the ROOT is present everywhere we need it, it will not
when we don't need. (As long as we don't hardcode "ROOT" in the server.)
At least on Retina Macbook Pros but most likely on other configurations,
the viewport's sizes is not exactly consistent to integer.
For instance, on a maximized Firefox, document.body.offsetHeight is 1,600.
When looking at the <html> on the inspector, I'd get 1,599.6, so **roughly** the same
but not exactly. Those inconsistencies are present on every level so being too strict
about those is probably not adequate.
This fixes#603 but allowing a 2% margin on the scroll position
to match the _end of screen_ and thus trigger the loading of additional cards.
This means that for the example above, it triggers at 1,568 instead of never reaching 1,600.
2% might be too large but it seems safe considering the potential of various resolutions
we may encounter and I don't see any side effect.
Before this fix the /random endpoint could return a 404 Not Found page
saying
The requested URL "/random" was not found on this server.
Error cases producing such a result were:
- `/random?content=NON-EXISTING-BOOK` (can happen when a server is
restarted or the library is reloaded and the current book is no longer
available).
- Failure of the libkiwix routine for picking a random article.
Now a proper message is shown for each of those cases.
Deduplicated the mustache templates static/templates/catalog_v2_entries.xml
and static/templates/catalog_v2_complete_entry.xml (the latter was
renamed to static/templates/catalog_v2_entry.xml).
This changes the output of `/catalog/search` as follows:
- Entire search query (rather than only the value of the `q` parameter)
is put in the <title> node.
- Search performed with an empty query presents itself as "All zims".
- The feed id remains stable for identical searches on the same
library.
/catalog/v2/entries is intended to play the combined role of
/catalog/root.xml and /catalog/search of the old OPDS API. Currently,
the latter role is not yet implemented.
Implementation note: instead of tweaking and reusing
`OPDSDumper::dumpOPDSFeed()`, the generation of the OPDS feed is done via `mustache`
and a new template `static/catalog_v2_entries.xml`.
Note: This commit somewhat relaxes validation of non variable
`<updated>` elements in the OPDS feed - the contents of any `<updated>`
element is replaced with the YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ placeholder.
In certain pages like the search result page, bookName is not of the
form `/bookName/endpoint?parameters`. Rather it is available as a query
parameter. From these pages bookName should be assigned from parameters.
