Let's have a way to run all the JavaScript the web wants to give us.
This was previously available as a Debug menu option, and this makes
it available from process startup.
This is a bit of a blunt hammer, but this hooks an action to clear the
HTTP disk cache into the existing Clear Cache action. Upon invocation,
it stops all existing cache entries from making further progress, and
then deletes the entire cache index and all cache files.
In the future, we will of course want more fine-grained control over
cache deletion, e.g. via an about:history page.
It currently lives in LibWebView as it was only used for cookies and
local storage, both of which are managed in the UI process. Let's move
it to its own library now to allow other processes to use it, without
having to depend on LibWebView (and therefore LibWeb).
We only supported headless clipboard management in test-web. So when WPT
tests the clipboard APIs, we would blindly try to access the Qt app,
which does not exist.
Note that the AppKit UI has no such restriction, as the NSPasteboard is
accessible even without a GUI.
To detect system time zone changes on Windows, the event we need to look
for is WM_TIMECHANGE. The problem is how the callback with said message
actually gets invoked is very particular. (1) We must have an active
message pump (event loop) for the message to ever be processed. (2) We
must be a GUI application as WM_TIMECHANGE messages are seemingly sent
to top level windows only. It doesn't say that in the docs for the
event, but attempts of creating a LibTest-based application with a
message pump and a message only window and never receiving the event
point to that probably being true.
This workaround is built off the fact that Qt's message pump defined
internally in QEventDispatcherWin32::processEvents does in fact receive
WM_TIMECHANGE events, even though it is not exposed as a QEvent::Type.
Given the requirements stated above it makes sense that it works here as
the message pump is executing in a QGuiApplication context. So we use a
native event filter to hook into the unexposed WM_TIMECHANGE event and
forward it along to the on_time_zone_changed() callback.
Note that if a Windows GUI framework is done in the future, we'll have
to re-add support to ensure the TimeZoneWatcher still gets invoked.
Clipboard handling largely has nothing to do with the individual web
views. Rather, we interact with the system clipboard at the application
level. So let's move these implementations to the Application.
This lets us avoid each UI needing to handle link clicks directly, and
lets actions stored in LibWebView avoid awkwardly going through the link
click callbacks to open URLs.
Previously if the directory returned by `downloads_directory()` didn't
exist (or wasn't a directory) when taking a screnshot in headless mode
we try to ask the user for the download directory and fail with the
unhelpful error: QWidget: Must construct a QApplication before a QWidget
By migrating the debug menu to LibWebView, the AppKit and Qt UIs are now
in sync - the AppKit UI was previously missing some actions.
Further, this inadvertently fixes bugs around applying debug settings to
new web views, especially across site-isolated processes. We were
previously not applying settings appropriately; this now "just works" in
the LibWebView infra.
This migrates all duplicated context menus from the UIs to LibWebView.
The context menu actions are now largely handled directly in LibWebView,
with some UI-specific callbacks added to display e.g. confirmation
dialogs.
Actions that only ever apply to a specific web view are stored on the
ViewImplementation itself. Actions that need to be dynamically applied
to the active web view are stored on the Application.
The HTTP cache is now stable enough that we can ask more people to help
us testing it. So let's turn it on by default! It can be turned off with
--disable-http-cache if needed.
This replaces the --devtools-port flag with a --devtools flag, which
optionally accepts a port. If the --devtools flag is set, we will now
automatically launch the DevTools server.
This change follows the pattern of our cookies persistence
implementation: the "browser" process is responsible for interacting
with the sqlite database, and WebContent communicates all storage
operations via IPC.
The new database table uses (storage_endpoint, storage_key, bottle_key)
as the primary key. This design follows concepts from the
https://storage.spec.whatwg.org/ and is intended to support reuse of the
persistence layer for other APIs (e.g., CacheStorage, IndexedDB). For
now, `storage_endpoint` is always "localStorage", `storage_key` is the
website's origin, and `bottle_key` is the name of the localStorage key.
In particular, we need to defer creating the process manager until after
we have decided whether or not to create a UI-specific event loop. If we
create the process manager sooner, its event loop signal registration
does not work, and we don't handle child processes exiting.
This is causing errors on the WPT runner, which does not have a display
output. To do this requires shuffling around the Main::Arguments struct,
as we now need access to it from overridden WebView::Application methods
after construction.
We currently create a separate headless-browser application to serve two
purposes:
1. Allow headless browsing to take a screenshot of a page or print its
layout tree / internal text.
2. Run the LibWeb test framework.
This patch migrates (1) to the main Ladybird executable. The --headless
flag enables this mode. This matches the behavior of other browsers, and
means we have one less executable to ship at distribution time.
We want to avoid creating too many AppKit / Qt facilities in headless
mode. So this involves some shuffling of application init to ensure we
don't create them until after we've parsed the command line arguments.
Namely, we avoid creating the NSApp in AppKit and QCoreApplication in
Qt. Doing so also requires that we don't create the application event
loop until we've parsed the command line as well, because the loop we
create depends on whether we're creating those UI facilities.
We had a bit of an awkward setup where we want the Application to be a
SettingsObserver, but neither the Settings object nor the Application
itself was fully initialized by the time the observer was created. So
we invented a deferred observer initializer specifically for the
Application.
Instead, let's just create a dedicated observer subclass that is owned
by the Application. We can then create it once we have the singleton
Application appropriately set up.
The upcoming generated types will match those for pseudo-classes: A
PseudoElementSelector type, that then holds a PseudoElement enum
defining what it is. That enum will be at the top level in the Web::CSS
namespace.
In order to keep the diffs clearer, this commit renames and moves the
types, and then a following one will replace the handwritten enum with
a generated one.
This adds a basic settings page to manage persistent Ladybird settings.
As a first pass, this exposes settings for the new tab page URL and the
default search engine.
The way the search engine option works is that once search is enabled,
the user must choose their default search engine; we do not apply any
default automatically. Search remains disabled until this is done.
There are a couple of improvements that we should make here:
* Settings changes are not broadcasted to all open about:settings pages.
So if two instances are open, and the user changes the search engine
in one instance, the other instance will have a stale UI.
* Adding an IPC per setting is going to get annoying. It would be nice
if we can come up with a smaller set of IPCs to send only the relevant
changed settings.
This adds a WebView::Settings class to own persistent browser settings.
In this first pass, it now owns the new tab page URL and search engine
settings.
For simplicitly, we currently use a JSON format for these settings. They
are stored alongside the cookie database. As of this commit, the saved
JSON will have the form:
{
"newTabPageURL": "about:blank",
"searchEngine": {
"name": "Google"
}
}
(The search engine is an object to allow room for a future patch to
implement custom search engine URLs.)
For Qt, this replaces the management of these particular settings in the
Qt settings UI. We will have an internal browser page to control these
settings instead. In the future, we will want to port all settings to
this new class. We will also want to allow UI-specific settings (such as
whether the hamburger menu is displayed in Qt).
When we inspect a DOM node, we currently serialize many properties for
that node, including its layout, computed style, used fonts, etc. Now
that we aren't piggy-backing on the Inspector interface, we can instead
only serialize the specific information required by DevTools.
The intent is that this will replace the separate Task Manager window.
This will allow us to more easily add features such as actual process
management, better rendering of the process table, etc. Included in this
page is the ability to sort table rows.
This also lays the ground work for more internal `about` pages, such as
about:config.
