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.
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`.
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 :)
