Note that static/skin/languages.js must be generated/updated manually
by running the static/generate_i18n_resources_list.py script. Previously
it had to be done only when new languages were added. Now the
translation counts will also need to be updated when new entries are
added to static/skin/i18n/en.json or upon merging a few translatewiki PRs.
... so that extra info about the count of translated strings can be
added.
Note that due to increased size skin/languages.js lost its
too-small-to-be-worth-compressing status.
Added a test case demonstrating how a bad error response could be
generated if </script> appears inside KIWIX_RESPONSE_DATA. That seems to
be the only problematic interaction between HTML-like syntax inside
javascript code (hence the deleted XXX comments on the other two test
cases).
But the question is do we need all of them to be translatable in the
frontend? Maybe only responses to /random, /content and /search endpoints (that
are displayed in the viewer) should be translatable?
Also, the test cases against vulnerabilities in kiwix-serve seem to suggest
that KIWIX_RESPONSE_DATA should be HTML-encoded too.
This commit demonstrates front-end-side translation of an error page
for a URL like /viewer#INVALIDBOOK/whatever (where INVALIDBOOK should
be a book name NOT present in the library).
Known issues:
- This change breaks a couple of subtests in the
ServerTest.Http404HtmlError unit test.
- Changing the UI language while an error page is displayed in the
viewer doesn't retranslate it.
Next to come warc2zim archive will come with "wombat" embedded.
The purpose of wombat is to be an interface with js code to mask that
we are in a scrapped/zim context to the js.
So it rewrite the `.href` attributes to the original url (ie, an
absolute url to the original website), even if the local relative url
is valid.
Let's ask to wombat to not rewrite href in our special case.
Attempts to use the same color for buttons yielded poor results: viewer
toolbar buttons don't look nice on the dark background used for the
filter controls on the library page, whereas the light background of the
viewer toolbar buttons doesn't play well with the filters on the library
page which seem to be designed around the contrast effect.
There was a slight difference (between index.css and taskbar.css) in the
margin values of the UI language selector button, however the values
taken from taskbar.css don't seem to have any visible impact on the
welcome/library page (controlled by index.css).
Moved from index.css into kiwix.css some CSS with global effect thus
making it apply to the viewer too.
Extra font-size directives in taskbar.css are needed to undo the effect
of 'font-size: 62.5%' now applied to the 'html' element type.
The new file kiwix.css is intended to host the intersection of index.css
and taskbar.css. In this commit only font definitions have been moved
into it.
This fix contains a small hack - in order to detect the default language
from browser language preference during the first visit, the library
page has to load /viewer_settings.js which contains that information.
This commit drops the usage of the userlang cookie in the backend but
not in the frontend. UI language control should be broken at this point
and will be fixed in the next few commits.
After upgrading my OS to Ubuntu 22.04 the language selector button
didn't show up in the viewer taskbar. Investigation shows that the id
used in the CSS was applied to the wrong HTML element (the enclosing
<a> rather than <img>).
Before this fix suggestion links were built out of fully URI-encoded
book name and article path components despite the fact that this measure
was taken against only a few dangerous symbols such as '#', '?', '"' and
'\'. However, URI-encoding the slash symbols in the path has some
undesirable side-effects (see #958).
Henceforth only the problematic symbols are encoded in the article path
component. The book name is still fully URI-encoded since I don't see
any counter-arguments.
This is a quickfix for the problem observed with external link blocking
during certain history navigation actions (when the cached iframe content is
loaded/restored before the viewer setup is completed).
Since external link blocking doesn't depend on the translations (that
are asynchronously loaded during the viewer setup) it can be performed
unconditionally. However, the current dependence of `on_content_load()`
on viewer setup has to be addressed too.
Before this fix clicking an external link in the viewer iframe had no
effect (other than an error being reported in the browser dev tools
console) because the attempt to navigate the top browser context was
suppressed due to sandboxing - the click handling code changed the
target of the link but navigating to that target was blocked. Now the
click handler works as follows:
1. Changes the target of the link to the catch page only if the
link is going to be opened in a new tab or window (in this case
sandboxing restrictions do not apply).
2. Otherwise directly navigates the viewer window to external URL
or the catch page.
An unhandled scenario is opening an external link in a new tab/window
via a middle click or context menu - such events cannot be intercepted
and therefore there is no way of blocking external links accessed in
the said way.
In firefox, when PDF content is displayed in the viewer, changing the
viewer URL in the address bar had no effect. The most prominent
manifestation of this bug was the broken book home button but the same
issue was present even if the fragment component of the viewer URL was
edited manually. The bug was a result of
1. an optimization preventing any actions if the new content URL is the
same as the old content URL (this was needed to break the infinite loop
of mutual updates of the top-window and content window/iframe URLs when
any one of them changes).
2. sandboxing of the iframe and inability to access the content URL in
iframe because of cross-origin restrictions when the content is a PDF
displayed by the builtin viewer.
Now that issue is fixed. A slight remaining defect is that the
addressbar URL is still not updated when a PDF file is loaded/displayed
in the viewer.
