This requires two changes on our side:
- The order of exports in `web/viewer{-geckoview}.js` changes slightly
because `eslint-plugin-perfectionist` aligned the sorting order with
the `eslint-plugin-sort-exports` plugin we used before. This restores
the change from commit 347f155.
- The `eslint-plugin-import` plugin contains a bug that causes the new
version of `eslint-plugin-perfectionist` to be reported as unresolved.
This issue is tracked upstream, and since the plugin works fine we
can simply extend the ignore list we already have to avoid this error
until the upstream bug is fixed.
This is unblocked now that all dependencies have been updated and the
flat configuration format (compatible with ESLint 8 and 9) was
introduced first. The following deprecation warnings during `npm
install` are resolved by this upgrade:
```
npm warn deprecated @humanwhocodes/config-array@0.13.0: Use @eslint/config-array instead
npm warn deprecated @humanwhocodes/object-schema@2.0.3: Use @eslint/object-schema instead
npm warn deprecated eslint@8.57.1: This version is no longer supported. Please see https://eslint.org/version-support for other options.
```
Note that according to https://eslint.org/version-support ESLint 8 is
officially EOL now, and ESLint 9 has been released for over seven
months and is the only officially supported version.
Fixes#17928.
Flat config is the new config system used by ESLint 9.
To make the migration easier, they also added
flat config support to ESLint 8.
This commit migrates the various ESLint configs in the repository to use
the new system, **without** upgrading to ESLint 9 yet.
The `@napi-rs/canvas` package has fewer dependencies, which should *hopefully* make installing and using it easier for `pdfjs-dist` end-users. (Over the years we've seen, repeatedly, that `canvas` can be difficult to install successfully.)
Furthermore, this package includes more functionality (such as `Path2D`) which reduces the overall number of dependencies in the PDF.js project.
One point to note is that `@napi-rs/canvas` is a fair bit newer than `canvas`, and has a lot fewer users, however looking at the commit history it does seem to be actively maintained.
Note that I've successfully tested the [Node.js examples](https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/tree/master/examples/node), in particular the `pdf2png` one, with this patch applied and things appear to work fine.
Please see:
- https://www.npmjs.com/package/@napi-rs/canvas
- https://github.com/Brooooooklyn/canvas
This patch updates the minimum supported environments as follows:
- Node.js 20, which was released on 2023-04-18 and has now entered the "Maintenance"-phase; see https://github.com/nodejs/release#release-schedule
Furthermore, note also that Node.js 18 will fairly soon reach EOL.
The plugins have originally been introduced in commit d63da81 for the
`eslint-plugin-mozilla` dependency, but the `eslint-plugin-mozilla`
plugin got removed in commit be93d53 and we also don't use the plugins
ourselves in e.g. our `.eslintrc` files (as evidenced by `npx gulp lint`
not failing while it does fail if we remove any of the other plugins).
Note that the new version of `eslint-plugin-import` contains support
for ESLint 9.
Moreover, the new version of Babel removed the leading space for import
comments (see https://github.com/babel/babel/pull/16780), so we update
the corresponding test expectation to match this.
Fixes a part of #17928.
This is unblocked because in commit bb302dd the default value for the
constructor got removed, which apparently confused TypeScript before.
Fixes#18770.
This major version contains three breaking changes that impact us:
- The `product` option has been renamed to the more suitable `browser`.
- The `page.screenshot()` API returns a `Uint8Array` instead of a
`Buffer`, but since `pngjs` requires a `Buffer` object we need to do
the conversion using `Buffer.from()` before passing data to `pngjs`.
- The browser configuration should be set using a configuration file
instead of environment variables. Note that as a bonus this allows us
to remove the `cross-env` dependency since that was only used to set
the Puppeteer environment variable equally for all operating systems.
For more information about the changes between the old and new Puppeteer
versions refer to https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/releases.
This dependency got introduced in PR #10293, almost six years ago now,
because `eslint-plugin-mozilla` didn't work without it but also didn't
require it as a dependency itself.
However, nowadays `eslint-plugin-mozilla` works just fine without it,
and other dependencies that need it correctly require it themselves.
This can be seen using `npm ls globals`:
```
$ npm ls globals
pdf.js
├─┬ @babel/core@7.24.9
│ └─┬ @babel/traverse@7.25.0
│ └── globals@11.12.0
├─┬ @babel/preset-env@7.25.0
│ └─┬ @babel/plugin-transform-classes@7.25.0
│ └── globals@11.12.0
├─┬ eslint-plugin-unicorn@55.0.0
│ └── globals@15.8.0 deduped
├─┬ eslint@8.57.0
│ ├─┬ @eslint/eslintrc@2.1.4
│ │ └── globals@13.24.0
│ └── globals@13.24.0
└── globals@15.8.0
```
Further proof that `eslint-plugin-mozilla` (no longer) uses `globals` is
from a source code search in
https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/search?q=globals&path=&case=false®exp=false.
The only results for `eslint-plugin-mozilla` refer to a file named
`globals.js`, but the `globals` NPM package is not actually imported
anywhere.
Given this we should be able to safely get rid of this explicit
dependency on our end now.
The `streamqueue` dependency is only used for the test targets in the
Gulpfile to make sure that the test types are run in series. This is
done by modelling the test processes as readable streams and then having
`streamqueue` combine them into a single readable stream for Gulp that
processes the inner readable streams in series (in contrast to the
`ordered-read-streams` dependency which is very similar but processes
the inner streams in parallel).
However, modelling the test processes as readable streams is a bit odd
because we're not actually streaming any data as one might expect.
Instead, we only use them to signal test process completion/abortion.
Fortunately nowadays, with modern Gulp versions, we don't need readable
streams and `streamqueue` anymore because we can achieve the same result
with simple asynchronous functions that can be passed to e.g.
`gulp.series()` calls. Note that we already do this in various places,
and overall it should be a better fit for test process invocations.
Wintersmith is no longer maintained given that the most recent version
is from six years ago, and all vulnerabilities that NPM reports
originate from Wintersmith's dependencies. Metalsmith, and its plugins,
on the other hand have recently had releases and don't have known
vulnerabilities. In fact, the number of reported vulnerabilities by NPM
even goes down to zero with this patch applied.
This commit therefore replaces Wintersmith with Metalsmith by providing
a transparent drop-in replacement, in a way that requires the least
amount of changes to the code and the generated output.
Note that this patch does update our versions of jQuery, Bootstrap and
the Highlight.js theme because the previous versions were very outdated
and didn't work correctly with Metalsmith. Moreover, those old versions
contained vulnerabilities that are hereby fixed.
Fixes#18198.
