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.
Serving the language list as a JS file rather than JSON simplifies
a few things:
- cacheid management;
- having to manually delay the UI initialization until the JSON file
is loaded.
static/skin/languages.js must be generated/updated manually by running
the static/generate_i18n_resources_list.py script.
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`.
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 :)
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.
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.
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.
