# browser-window

The `BrowserWindow` class gives you ability to create a browser window, an
example is:

```javascript
var BrowserWindow = require('browser-window');

var win = new BrowserWindow({ width: 800, height: 600, show: false });
win.on('closed', function() {
  win = null;
});

win.loadUrl('https://github.com');
win.show();
```

You can also create a window without chrome by using
[Frameless Window](frameless-window-ko.md) API.

## Class: BrowserWindow

`BrowserWindow` is an
[EventEmitter](http://nodejs.org/api/events.html#events_class_events_eventemitter).

### new BrowserWindow(options)

* `options` Object
  * `x` Integer - Window's left offset to screen
  * `y` Integer - Window's top offset to screen
  * `width` Integer - Window's width
  * `height` Integer - Window's height
  * `use-content-size` Boolean - The `width` and `height` would be used as web
     page's size, which means the actual window's size will include window
     frame's size and be slightly larger.
  * `center` Boolean - Show window in the center of the screen
  * `min-width` Integer - Minimum width
  * `min-height` Integer - Minimum height
  * `max-width` Integer - Maximum width
  * `max-height` Integer - Maximum height
  * `resizable` Boolean - Whether window is resizable
  * `always-on-top` Boolean - Whether the window should always stay on top of
     other windows
  * `fullscreen` Boolean - Whether the window should show in fullscreen, when
    set to `false` the fullscreen button would also be hidden on OS X
  * `skip-taskbar` Boolean - Do not show window in taskbar
  * `zoom-factor` Number - The default zoom factor of the page, zoom factor is
    zoom percent / 100, so `3.0` represents `300%`
  * `kiosk` Boolean - The kiosk mode
  * `title` String - Default window title
  * `icon` [NativeImage](native-image-ko.md) - The window icon, when omitted on
    Windows the executable's icon would be used as window icon
  * `show` Boolean - Whether window should be shown when created
  * `frame` Boolean - Specify `false` to create a
    [Frameless Window](frameless-window-ko.md)
  * `node-integration` Boolean - Whether node integration is enabled, default
    is `true`
  * `accept-first-mouse` Boolean - Whether the web view accepts a single
    mouse-down event that simultaneously activates the window
  * `disable-auto-hide-cursor` Boolean - Do not hide cursor when typing
  * `auto-hide-menu-bar` Boolean - Auto hide the menu bar unless the `Alt`
    key is pressed.
  * `enable-larger-than-screen` Boolean - Enable the window to be resized larger
    than screen.
  * `dark-theme` Boolean - Forces using dark theme for the window, only works on
    some GTK+3 desktop environments
  * `preload` String - Specifies a script that will be loaded before other
    scripts run in the window. This script will always have access to node APIs
    no matter whether node integration is turned on for the window, and the path
    of `preload` script has to be absolute path.
  * `transparent` Boolean - Makes the window [transparent](frameless-window-ko.md)
  * `type` String - Specifies the type of the window, possible types are
    `desktop`, `dock`, `toolbar`, `splash`, `notification`. This only works on
    Linux.
  * `standard-window` Boolean - Uses the OS X's standard window instead of the
    textured window. Defaults to `true`.
  * `web-preferences` Object - Settings of web page's features
    * `javascript` Boolean
    * `web-security` Boolean
    * `images` Boolean
    * `java` Boolean
    * `text-areas-are-resizable` Boolean
    * `webgl` Boolean
    * `webaudio` Boolean
    * `plugins` Boolean - Whether plugins should be enabled, currently only
      `NPAPI` plugins are supported.
    * `extra-plugin-dirs` Array - Array of paths that would be searched for
      plugins. Note that if you want to add a directory under your app, you
      should use `__dirname` or `process.resourcesPath` to join the paths to
      make them absolute, using relative paths would make Electron search
      under current working directory.
    * `experimental-features` Boolean
    * `experimental-canvas-features` Boolean
    * `subpixel-font-scaling` Boolean
    * `overlay-scrollbars` Boolean
    * `overlay-fullscreen-video` Boolean
    * `shared-worker` Boolean
    * `direct-write` Boolean - Whether the DirectWrite font rendering system on
       Windows is enabled
    * `page-visibility` Boolean - Page would be forced to be always in visible
       or hidden state once set, instead of reflecting current window's
       visibility. Users can set it to `true` to prevent throttling of DOM
       timers.

Creates a new `BrowserWindow` with native properties set by the `options`.
Usually you only need to set the `width` and `height`, other properties will
have decent default values.

### Event: 'page-title-updated'

* `event` Event

Emitted when the document changed its title, calling `event.preventDefault()`
would prevent the native window's title to change.

### Event: 'close'

* `event` Event

Emitted when the window is going to be closed. It's emitted before the
`beforeunload` and `unload` event of DOM, calling `event.preventDefault()`
would cancel the close.

Usually you would want to use the `beforeunload` handler to decide whether the
window should be closed, which will also be called when the window is
reloaded. In Electron, returning an empty string or `false` would cancel the
close. An example is:

```javascript
window.onbeforeunload = function(e) {
  console.log('I do not want to be closed');

  // Unlike usual browsers, in which a string should be returned and the user is
  // prompted to confirm the page unload, Electron gives developers more options.
  // Returning empty string or false would prevent the unloading now.
  // You can also use the dialog API to let the user confirm closing the application.
  return false;
};
```

### Event: 'closed'

Emitted when the window is closed. After you have received this event you should
remove the reference to the window and avoid using it anymore.

### Event: 'unresponsive'

Emitted when the web page becomes unresponsive.

### Event: 'responsive'

Emitted when the unresponsive web page becomes responsive again.

### Event: 'blur'

Emitted when window loses focus.

### Event: 'focus'

### Event: 'restore'

Emitted when window is restored from minimized state.

### Event: 'resize'

Emitted when window is getting resized.

### Event: 'move'

Emitted when the window is getting moved to a new position.

__Note__: On OS X this event is just an alias of `moved`.

### Event: 'moved'

Emitted once when the window is moved to a new position.

__Note__: This event is available only on OS X.

### Event: 'enter-full-screen'

Emitted when window enters full screen state.

### Event: 'leave-full-screen'

Emitted when window leaves full screen state.

### Event: 'enter-html-full-screen'

Emitted when window enters full screen state triggered by html api.

### Event: 'devtools-opened'

Emitted when devtools is opened.

### Event: 'devtools-closed'

Emitted when devtools is closed.

### Event: 'devtools-focused'

Emitted when devtools is focused / opened.

### Event: 'app-command':

Emitted when an [App Command](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms646275(v=vs.85).aspx) is invoked. These are typically related to keyboard media keys or browser commands, as well as the "Back" button built into some mice on Windows.

```js
someWindow.on('app-command', function(e, cmd) {
  // Navigate the window back when the user hits their mouse back button
  if (cmd === 'browser-backward' && someWindow.webContents.canGoBack()) {
    someWindow.webContents.goBack();

* `options` Object
  * `silent` Boolean - Don't ask user for print settings, defaults to `false`
  * `printBackground` Boolean - Also prints the background color and image of
    the web page, defaults to `false`.

Prints window's web page. When `silent` is set to `false`, Electron will pick
up system's default printer and default settings for printing.

Calling `window.print()` in web page is equivalent to call
`WebContents.print({silent: false, printBackground: false})`.

**Note:** On Windows, the print API relies on `pdf.dll`. If your application
doesn't need print feature, you can safely remove `pdf.dll` in saving binary
size.

### WebContents.printToPDF(options, callback)

  * `landscape` Boolean - `true` for landscape, `false` for portrait.

* `callback` Function - `function(error, data) {}`
  * `error` Error
  * `data` Buffer - PDF file content

Prints windows' web page as PDF with Chromium's preview printing custom
settings.

By default, an empty `options` will be regarded as
`{marginsType:0, printBackgrounds:false, printSelectionOnly:false,
  landscape:false}`.

```javascript
var BrowserWindow = require('browser-window');
var fs = require('fs');

var win = new BrowserWindow({width: 800, height: 600});
win.loadUrl("http://github.com");

win.webContents.on("did-finish-load", function() {
  // Use default printing options
  win.webContents.printToPDF({}, function(error, data) {
    if (error) throw error;
    fs.writeFile(dist, data, function(error) {
      if (err)
        alert('write pdf file error', error);
    })
  })
});
```

### WebContents.send(channel[, args...])

* `channel` String

Send `args..` to the web page via `channel` in asynchronous message, the web
page can handle it by listening to the `channel` event of `ipc` module.

An example of sending messages from the main process to the renderer process:

```javascript
// On the main process.
var window = null;
app.on('ready', function() {
  window = new BrowserWindow({width: 800, height: 600});
  window.loadUrl('file://' + __dirname + '/index.html');
  window.webContents.on('did-finish-load', function() {
    window.webContents.send('ping', 'whoooooooh!');
  });
});
```

```html
// index.html
<html>
<body>
  <script>
    require('ipc').on('ping', function(message) {
      console.log(message);  // Prints "whoooooooh!"
    });
  </script>
</body>
</html>
```

**Note:**

1. The IPC message handler in web pages do not have a `event` parameter, which
   is different from the handlers on the main process.
2. There is no way to send synchronous messages from the main process to a
   renderer process, because it would be very easy to cause dead locks.

## Class: WebContents.session.cookies

The `cookies` gives you ability to query and modify cookies, an example is:

```javascipt
var BrowserWindow = require('browser-window');

var win = new BrowserWindow({ width: 800, height: 600 });

win.loadUrl('https://github.com');

win.webContents.on('did-finish-load', function() {
  // Query all cookies.
  win.webContents.session.cookies.get({}, function(error, cookies) {
    if (error) throw error;
    console.log(cookies);
  });

  // Query all cookies that are associated with a specific url.
  win.webContents.session.cookies.get({ url : "http://www.github.com" },
