Special URI symbols occurring in the item path part of the search result
link were NOT encoded, because that would also encode the path separator (/)
symbol. Now that `urlEncode()` never encodes the / symbol, it is safe to
encode all other URI-special symbols in the path.
This change is a quick hack solving known issues with URI-encoding in
libkiwix.
This change removes the slash character from the list of URL separator
symbols in URL encoding/decoding utilities, and makes it a symbol that
is safe to leave unencoded.
Effects:
- `urlEncode()` never encodes the '/' symbol (even when it is requested
to encode the URL separator symbols too).
- `urlDecode(str)`/`urlDecode(..., false)` will now decode %2F to '/';
other encoded URL separator symbols are NOT decoded when the second
argument of `urlDecode()` is set to false (which is the default).
Without specifying the "Path" attribute of the cookie in the "Set-Cookie" header
we end up with multiple instances of the cookie for different URLs. We
want a single "global" cookie for kiwix-serve. Besides we want it to be
"permanent" rather than a session cookie, hence the large (1-year-long)
TTL value for the "Max-Age" attribute.
- Description of a test point was not updated in an earlier commit
that added proper handling of the Accept-Language header. Also
after enhancing the limited implementation it made sense to
add another test point demonstrating that the most suitable language
(rather than just the first one in the list) is selected.
- Now failures of the test case because of a missing Set-Cookie header
are more informative.
The question mark (?) is not a valid filename character on Windows.
Changing to a the pound sign (#) so that this repository can still be
cloned on Windows.
Specifying the = symbol with single-character options makes that
character included in the option value (e.g. -l=en results in the
language of the ZIM file being set to =en).
Directly pointing the suggestion link to a /content/... URL avoids
an unnecessary redirection by the server (and an associated bug
related to redirection of URLs with URI-encoded special symbols in
them that - in the current implementation - go into the target URL
in decoded form).
This change fixes two issues:
1. Presence of URL-specific special symbols (such as ? or #) in the book
and/or article name resulted in a wrong suggestion link. This is
fixed by URI-encoding the book name and the path, too.
2. Presence of a single quote symbol in the book and/or article name
resulted in invalid javascript code in the href attribute of the
suggestion link.
The single quote (') symbol is not URL-encoded (unlike its double quote
counterpart). As a result, enclosing a URL-encoded string in single
quotes may result in invalid javascript. Using double quotes instead is
safe, since both double quote (") and backslash (\) symbols (which are
the only special symbols for such quoting) undergo URL-encoding.
We need a fake language for tests that won't be affected by
modifications made by 3rd party translators (see kiwix/libkiwix#749).
- static/i18n/hy.json was cloned as static/i18n/test.json
- usage of "hy" in unit-tests was replaced with "test"
From now on, the `lang` parameter of the /catalog/search,
/catalog/v2/entries, and /catalog/v2/partial_entries endpoints is
interpreted as a comma-separated list of languages.
Before this change RequestContext::get_query() returned a reordered
query string (alphabetically sorted by the parameter names).
This fix facilitiates testing of responses where the request URL appears
in the response.
Multizim search requires that all selected books be in the same
language.
No new URL query parameter was introduced for specifying the intended
search language - `books.filter.lang` can be used for that purpose.
The server_search unit-test was updated to use a slightly cheating
library xml file where the language of example.zim was tweaked from "en"
to "eng" in order to match that of zimfile.zim. Note that this change
drops from the tested server two other goofy ZIM files corner_cases.zim
and poor.zim that have been/are included in ServerTest.
Before this change cacheids were computed only for those static
resources that were referenced from other resources via KIWIXCACHEID.
A few static resources without such references existed.
Now all resources under skin/ have their cacheids computed.
During static resource preprocessing and compilation their cacheid
values are embedded into libkiwix and can be accessed at runtime.
If a static resource is requsted without specifying any cacheid
it is served as dynamic content (with short TTL and the library id
used for the ETag, though using the cacheid for the ETag would
be better).
If a cacheid is supplied in the request it must match the cacheid of the
resource (otherwise a 404 Not Found error is returned) whereupon the
resource is served as immutable content.
Known issues:
- One issue is caused by the fact that some static resources don't get a
cacheid; this is resolved in the next commit.
- Interaction of this change with the support for dynamically customizing
static resources (via KIWIX_SERVE_CUSTOMIZED_RESOURCES env var) was
not addressed.
One (hopefully, last) remaining relative URL to a static resource
is the reference to ./search-icon.svg found in skin/index.css to which
KIWIXCACHEID could not be applied because of the limitations of the
resource preprocessing script `kiwix-resources`.
