This is surprising, but C++11 fstream doesn't have a constructor
that take wchar as path.
So, on windows, we cannot open a stream on a path containing non ascii
char. VC++ provide an extension for that, but it is not standard and
g++ mingwin doesn't provide it.
So move all our write/read tools function to the plain old c versions,
using _wopen to open wide path on windows.
We must use the wide version of the getenv to correctly handle the case
we have accents in the user directory.
This also change the default dataDirectory on windows from $APPDATA to
$APPDATA/kiwix.
Fixed a regression introduced in block-external-links feature.
For cleaner source, the taskbar (and the block-external JS file) were both
attached to `<head>\n`.
Unfortunately, this isn't safe enough as some ZIM files might have all kinds of HTML
syntax. Sotoki for instance have no CR after head, rendering the attachment impossible.
Note: realizing this method is somehow fragile as any HTML content with extra attribute
on the `<head>` tag or without a `<head>` tag would break the taskbar and the block external feature.
- `setBlockExternalLinks()` on server
- zero-dependency JS code
- JS script added in `inject_externallinks_blocker()`
- changed URL to `/catch/external?source=<source>`
In many use cases, it is not wanted to have user accidentaly click on external links
and leave the served ZIM content.
This could be because the result is unpredictible (reader not implementing this properly)
or because the serve user knows there's no backup internet connexion or because there is
an induced cost behind external links that doesn't affect served content.
using a new flag (`blockExternalLinks`) on `Response`/`setTaskBar`, a piece of JS code
is injected into the taskbar code.
This code adds a JS handler on all link click events and verifies the destination.
If the destination appears to be an external link (1), the link target is changed to
a specific URL:
```
/external?source=<original_uri>
```
(1) external is a link that's not on the same origin and starts with either `http:` `https:` or `//`.
Server implements a new handler on `/external` that displays a new page (`captured_external.html`)
which returns a generic message explaining the situation and offering to click on the link
again should the user really want to.
This is done by specifically asking `set_taskbar` to not block external requests on that page.
This approach allows integrators using a reverse proxy to handle that endpoint differently (rebrand it)
1. `Server` now has an `m_blockExternalLinks` defaulting to `false`
1. `Server.setTaskbar` is extended to support an additional bool to set the variable.
1. `Response` now has an `m_blockExternalLinks`
1. `Response` constr expects an additional bool for `blockExternalLinks`.
1. `Response.set_taskbar` is extended to support an additional bool to set the variable.
1. JNI/Java Wrapper reflects the extensions.
1. New resource file `templates/block_external.js` (included in head_part). Should it be in skin?
1. New resource file `templates/captured_external.html` for `handle_captured_external()`
1. Added a comment on `head_part.html` to help with JS insertion at the right place
1. `introduce_taskbar()` conditionnaly inserts the JS inside the taskbar
We must correctly quote path with space on windows.
This is needed as we can't launch command using a array of string on
windows but by giving only one string using space as separator.
Fixkiwix/kiwix-desktop#268
No real change. Reordering setting and dumping of attribute in the same
order (mostly) they are declared in book.h make it easier to detect missing
attribute.
Downloader::startDownload has a new parameter option which is a vector of
pair that represents the options that can be set for adding a uri with aria2
with the function Aria2::addUri.
Aria2::addUri uses this parameter to set the struct of parameters for the
aria2 command
This mainly use the "new memory system". No need to call dispose function.
Rename the class to Library to conform with the naming semantics
(JNIKiwix* use old memory system)
The JNIKiwixManager is used to manage (insertion of book in) the library.
It is created, as needed, using an existing Library as input.
It is then used to add books, parse library.xml or opds content.
Then it can be destruct (and must be) with the `dispose` method.
```java
library = JNILibrary(...);
manager = JNIManager(library);
manager.parseOpds(opdscontent);
manager.dispose();
// library contains the books declared in the opds content.
// Use the library methods to get the books' info.
```
All path must be utf8. This is already the case in all our project.
(If this not the case, this is a bug)
So we don't need to have a version with a native and utf8 path.
Set the different filter's fields only when we are requested to filter
them. Else, we ends to requests that some fields are empty.
If the request has no argument, we raise an exception (catched) and so
we don't set the corresponding field in the filter.
Fix#303
The default value of this parameter is false, in this case all the bookmarks
are returned, otherwise only those who are related to books of the library.
Api changes :
- removeLastPathElement do not takes extra arguments
`removePreSeparator` and `removePostSeparator`.
This is not needed as path do not need special tailing separator.
- Only one function `split`. Arguments can be implicitly convert to
string. No need for overloading functions to explicitly cast them.
- `split` function takes another argument `trimEmpty`. If true, empty
element are removed.
Path manipulation now almost pass trough a vector<string> to store each
path's part.
Most of the complex works is now made in the normalizeParts function.
There are two executable path :
- The user one (the appimage path)
- The real one (in the appimage archive)
When we search of `library.xml` we need the user one.
But when we search of `aria2c` or `kiwix-serve` we need the real one.
Fixkiwix/kiwix-desktop#256
If kiwix-desktop use a `library.xml` in the same directory than the
executable, we need to use it instead of the default one.
Instead of detect again the `library.xml` to use, let `kiwix-desktop` set
the library to use.
This also fix a issue when `/` is not a valid path separator in windows.
AppImage works by decompressing the "program" in a temporary directory.
So the executable path is not the path of the AppImage file.
By using the environment variables set by appimage we can find the correct
"path" of the executable.
Fixkiwix/kiwix-desktop#46
Android need to handle the redirection by doing a redirection in the web
view, not by providing the content of the targeted article.
This is already what we do in kiwix-serve or ios.
The API should be far better by returning a Entry but for now,
we just change the given url if the article is a redirection.
The server will be running some code on the behalf of the calling code.
We really don't what to crash the library (and the binary) because
of a wrong request.
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).
-
Instead of having a single method `listBooksIds` that tries to be
exhaustive about all the filter and sort option, split the method in
two separated methods `filter` and `sort`.
The `filter` method takes a `Filter` object that represent on what we are
filtering. This object has to be construct before calling `filter`.
```cpp
Filter filter;
filter.query("Astring");
filter.acceptTags({"nopic"});
// return all book in eng and with "Astring" in the tile or description".
library.filter(filter);
//equivalent to
library.listBooksIds(ALL, UNSORTED, "Astring", "", "", "", {"nopic"});
// or better
library.filter(Filter().query("Astring").acceptTags({"nopic"}));
```
The method `listBooksIds` has been marked as deprecated.
Add a small test on the library.
The `exit` function will call the functions registered.
Qt may (and does) register function and may (and does) hangup waiting
for some mutex to be free.
Here we are in a forked process and we want to process to exit without
doing any cleanup (because we are a clone of a process that will continue
and we don't want to mess it).
This functions enable to stop and resume download with aria2.
The Downloader's constructor now checks the paused downloads with the
function "tellWaiting()" to get them at the start of kiwix-desktop.
Mingw doesn't implement it. So, we should not use it.
I suppose that it was working before because mingw package for debian trusty
simply no provides a "thread" header.
We may face to include the native "thread" header.
Rpath is not needed to run installed binaries. Most of GNU/Linux
distributions strictly forbid it.

They are not used at all and the windows version need some extra libs
that complexify the code.
Remove them for now. If it happens that they are needed, we will readd
them.
We must use absolute path whenever possible.
Relative path has sense only related to the "interaction" with the user
(current directory, library location, ...).
The `common` name is from the time where kiwix was only one repository
for all the project (android, desktop, server...).
Now we have split the repositories and kiwix-lib is the "common" repo,
the "common" directory is somehow nonsense.
Mustache templating system is a bit simpler than ctpp2 and ctpp2 is no
more maintained (see #189).
We are moving to the kainjow's Mustache project
(https://github.com/kainjow/Mustache).
It simplify a lot our system has it is header only and we don't have to
precompile the template.
Fix#21
This feature is considered obsolete for a while.
In fact, it was already not supported since June 2018 as we were compiling
xapian without the chert backend support.
Assume that we don't support it and remove it from the code.
See kiwix/kiwix-tools#245
This is a API break. library.xml files will still work but the indexPath
and indexType will be dropped silently from the file.
The library now contains (simple) methods to handle bookmarks.
The bookmark are stored in a separate xml file.
Bookmark are mainly a couple (`zimId`, `articleUrl`).
However, in the xml we store a bit more data :
- The article's title (for display)
- The book's title, lang and date (for potential update of zim files)
By default, we are searching in the PATH env var.
However, with an appImage, the executable directory is not in the PATH,
so we have to use an absolute path if we can.
If we cannot find the aria2c executable in the executable directory let's
try to use the system one.
`reader.getFileSize()` return the size of the zim in Kbyte in a
`unsigned int` (32 bits). This is ok as it would overflow if the size
of the size is greater than 4294967295 kbytes (so ~4Tbytes).
However, we need to convert the return size into a unsigned 64 bits integer
else, when converting to bytes, we will overflow at 4Gbytes.
Even in `m_size` is a uint64_t.
When we do a search and paging the result, we need to display to the
user the total number of book, not only the `itemsPerPage`.
So, we need to parse correctly the xml to keep information of the total
number of book.
The value is store as a string in in the xml, so we cannot use getAsI.
We have to get the string and parse it to an int.
We cannot use strtoull because android stdc++ lib doesn't have it.
We have to implement our how parseFromString function using a
istringstream.
When parsing a opds feed, the favicon is a url, not a dataurl.
If we download the favicon all the times, it may take a lot of time to
parse the feed.
We store the url and download the favicon only when needed (when displayed)
- "winsock2.h" needs to be included before "windows.h". But if a
compilation unit include "windows.h" and after "networkTools.h", we
fails and it is complicated to handle. The include must not be in the
header but in the cpp
- windows define some ERROR macro. It is a pitty but we cannot use `ERROR`
in our enum.
- If build statically using mingw we need to define `CURL_STATICLIB`
Library client (kiwix-desktop) need to know when a book is added to
library by the manager. By using a LibraryManipulator, we can do
dependency injection.
