JSON imports are now supported by all tools used in PDF.js' build
process. The `chromecom.js` file is bundled by webpack and
import attributes are thus removed, so browser compatibility for this
new syntax is not relevant.
- Replace DOM-based pdfHandler.html (background page) with background.js
(extension service worker).
- Adjust logic of background scripts to account for the fact that the
scripts can execute repeatedly during a browser session. Primarily,
register relevant extension event handlers at the top level and use
in-memory storage.session API to keep track of initialization state.
- Extension URL router: replace blocking webRequest with the service
worker-specific "fetch" event.
- PDF detection: replace blocking webRequest with declarativeNetRequest.
This requires Chrome 128+. The next commit will add a fallback for
earlier Chrome versions.
restoretab.js was added in https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/6233
with the purpose of restoring lost tabs when Chrome closes all extension
tabs when it reloads the extension. This forced reload can happen when
the user toggles the "Allow access to file URLs" option.
This logic does not work any more, and since the use of localStorage is
a blocker in migrating to MV3, this patch just drops the logic.
webRequestBlocking is unavailable in MV3. Non-blocking webRequest can
still be used to detect the Referer, but we have to use
declarativeNetRequest to change the Referer header as needed.
In preparation for migrating the Chrome extension to Manifest Version 3,
this patch removes parts of the manifest that are obsolete and/or
unsupported in MV3.
Remove ftp mentions: ftp was dropped from 6 years ago, in Chrome 59.
Remove file_browser_handlers: does not work on Chrome OS according to
https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/issues/14161 . MV3 replacement needs
a different manifest key and logic, which will be added later.
Remove content_security_policy: MV3 does not support unsafe-eval CSP,
and PDF.js does not require it. This may result in a mild performance
degradation in PDFs that contain PostScript.
Remove page_action logic: When this logic was originally introduced,
Chrome showed page action buttons in the address bar, which enabled
the extension to display the button on specific PDF viewer tabs only.
In Chrome 49 (2016), pageActions were dropped from the address bar and
put in an UI area that is hidden by default. The user can pin the button
to be unconditionally visible on the toolbar, which is distracting.
Because the UX is no longer serving the original needs, this patch
removes page_action from the manifest.
This old method is essentially just adding, a small amount of, unnecessary indirection and we can easily invoke `PDFViewerApplication.open` directly from the extension-specific code instead.
Currently the `web/app.js` file pulls in various build-specific dependencies, via the use of import maps, and those files in turn import from `web/app.js` thus creating undesirable import cycles.
To avoid this we instead pass in a `PDFViewerApplication`-reference, immediately after it's been created, to the relevant code.
Note that we use an ESLint plugin rule, see `import/no-cycle`, that is normally able to catch import cycles. However, in this case import maps are involved which is why this wasn't caught.
The `DefaultExternalServices` code, which is used to provide build-specific functionality, is very old. This results in a pattern where we first initialize `PDFViewerApplication.externalServices` and then *override* it for the different builds.
By converting `DefaultExternalServices` into a "regular" class, and leveraging import maps, we can directly initialize the correct instance depending on the build.
Given the simplicity of the `createPreferences` method, we can leverage import maps to directly initialize the correct `Preferences`-instance depending on the build.
Given the simplicity of the `createDownloadManager` method, we can leverage import maps to directly initialize the correct `DownloadManager`-instance depending on the build.
Currently we *synchronously* fetch a number of browser preferences/options, from the platform code, during the viewer respectively PDF document initialization paths.
This seems unnecessary, and we can re-factor the code to instead include the relevant data when fetching the regular viewer preferences.
Given that there's now a bit more asynchronicity in the l10n-initialization in the Firefox PDF Viewer, after PR 17115, try to limit the impact of that by moving it to occur a tiny bit earlier in the default viewer initialization.
- For the generic viewer we use @fluent/dom and @fluent/bundle
- For the builtin pdf viewer in Firefox, we set a localization url
and then we rely on document.l10n which is a DOMLocalization object.
`PDFViewerApplication` reads from `location.hash` to initialize
`initialBookmark`. But when extensions/chromium/pdfHandler.js prepares
the redirect URL, the reference fragment is encoded instead of bare.
`rewriteUrlClosure` in `chromecom.js` is responsible for decoding the
URL, but that currently runs too late.
To fix this, update `initialBookmark` after rewriting the URL.
This was not a problem in the past because `rewriteUrlClosure` in
`chromecom.js` executed before the initialization of `initialBookmark`.
This patch updates a bunch of older code, that makes conditional function calls, to use optional chaining rather than `if`-blocks.
These mostly mechanical changes reduce the size of the `gulp mozcentral` build by a little over 1 kB.
This way we're able to store the `<dialog>` elements directly, which removes the need to use manually specified name-strings thus simplifying both the `OverlayManager` itself and its calling code.
This replaces our *custom* overlays with standard `<dialog>` DOM elements, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/dialog, thus simplifying the related CSS, HTML, and JavaScript code.
With these changes, some of the functionality of the `OverlayManager` class is now handled natively (e.g. `Esc` to close the dialog). However, since we still need to be able to prevent dialogs from overlaying one another, it still makes sense to keep this functionality (as far as I'm concerned).
Similar to e.g. the "locale" option, this in *only* done for those build-targets where the "sandboxBundleSrc" is actually defined.
With these changes we can remove an `AppOptions` dependency from the `web/generic_scripting.js` file, thus limiting *direct* `AppOptions` usage in the default viewer files.
Given that the GENERIC default viewer supports opening more than one document, and that a unique scripting-instance is now used for each document, the changes made in this patch seem appropriate.
While it's not entirely clear to me that it's ultimately desirable to use the `pdf.sandbox.js` in the Chromium-extension, given that the MOZCENTRAL-build uses `pdf.scripting.js` directly in a *custom* sandbox, the current state isn't that great since setting `enableScripting = true` with the Chromium-extension will currently fail completely.
Hence this patch, which should at least unbreak things for now.
This fixes only those warnings, as reported by https://lgtm.com/projects/g/mozilla/pdf.js?mode=list, that make sense (as far as I'm concerned).
Hence this patch leaves the following things unaddressed:
- The "recommendation"-category, since it only complains about unused variables. However, note that all of those cases are purposely included and that there's thus ESLint-disable comments added to explictly allow them.
- The "warning"-category, which still contains two complaints. However, as far as I can tell, they are both false positives.
Given first of all the false positives of the LGTM static analyzer, and secondly that we'd need to add (essentially duplicated) disable-comments for the unused variable cases, it's not entirely clear to me if we actually want to work towards including LGTM in the PDF.js project (e.g. running alongside Travis) or if we should just close issue 11965.
The `debugger`-statement would only, potentially, make sense during development and we thus want to prevent it from being accidentally included when landing code.
The `alert`, `confirm`, and `prompt` functions should generally be avoided, with the few intended cases manually allowed.

Please note that these changes were done automatically, using `gulp lint --fix`.
Given that the major version number was increased, there's a fair number of (primarily whitespace) changes; please see https://prettier.io/blog/2020/03/21/2.0.0.html
In order to reduce the size of these changes somewhat, this patch maintains the old "arrowParens" style for now (once mozilla-central updates Prettier we can simply choose the same formatting, assuming it will differ here).
In order to eventually get rid of SystemJS and start using native `import`s instead, we'll need to provide "complete" file identifiers since otherwise there'll be MIME type errors when attempting to use `import`.
Please find additional details about the ESLint rule at https://eslint.org/docs/rules/prefer-const
Note that this patch is generated automatically, by using the ESLint `--fix` argument, and will thus require some additional clean-up (which is done separately).
This patch makes the follow changes:
- Remove no longer necessary inline `// eslint-disable-...` comments.
- Fix `// eslint-disable-...` comments that Prettier moved down, thus causing new linting errors.
- Concatenate strings which now fit on just one line.
- Fix comments that are now too long.
- Finally, and most importantly, adjust comments that Prettier moved down, since the new positions often is confusing or outright wrong.
Note that Prettier, purposely, has only limited [configuration options](https://prettier.io/docs/en/options.html). The configuration file is based on [the one in `mozilla central`](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/.prettierrc) with just a few additions (to avoid future breakage if the defaults ever changes).
Prettier is being used for a couple of reasons:
- To be consistent with `mozilla-central`, where Prettier is already in use across the tree.
- To ensure a *consistent* coding style everywhere, which is automatically enforced during linting (since Prettier is used as an ESLint plugin). This thus ends "all" formatting disussions once and for all, removing the need for review comments on most stylistic matters.
Many ESLint options are now redundant, and I've tried my best to remove all the now unnecessary options (but I may have missed some).
Note also that since Prettier considers the `printWidth` option as a guide, rather than a hard rule, this patch resorts to a small hack in the ESLint config to ensure that *comments* won't become too long.
*Please note:* This patch is generated automatically, by appending the `--fix` argument to the ESLint call used in the `gulp lint` task. It will thus require some additional clean-up, which will be done in a *separate* commit.
(On a more personal note, I'll readily admit that some of the changes Prettier makes are *extremely* ugly. However, in the name of consistency we'll probably have to live with that.)
This patch ignores the recently added `disableOpenActionDestination` preference, since the latest PDF.js version found on the "Chrome Web Store" doesn't include it.
This moves/exposes the `URL` polyfill similarily to the existing `ReadableStream` polyfill, rather than exposing it globally, to avoid interfering with any "outside" code.
Both the `URL` and `ReadableStream` polyfills are now exposed on the `pdfjsLib` object, such that they are accessible to the viewer components.
Furthermore, the `no-restricted-globals` ESLint rule is also enabled to prevent accidental usage of the native `URL`/`ReadableStream` implementations directly in the `src/` and `web/` folders; see also https://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-restricted-globals
Addresses the remaining TODO in https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/projects/6
The `onOpenWithURL` method, in `PDFViewerApplication.initPassiveLoading`, accepts a `originalURL` parameter which is then passed on to `PDFViewerApplication.open` as is. However, the latter method expects the name of the parameter to be `originalUrl` (note the casing), meaning that `getDocument` will fail in this case.
For consistency, and to avoid confusion, the renaming is done in `web/chromecom.js` as well.
Test case to exercise the different encodings:
1. Create a file "some file#@%M<br>%25 .pdf"
2. Build the extension with `gulp chromium` and load it in Chrome.
3. Go to `chrome://extensions/` and ensure that the
"Allow access to file URLs" is disabled.
4. Try to open the file from step 1 in Chrome (maybe reload once).
5. PDF.js should be showing a file chooser button.
6. Click on that button and select a different file.
Test: Check that a confirmation dialog pops up that warns about
a different file name. Cancel the dialog.
7. Click on the button again and select the original file.
Test: Check that the file opens as expected.
