* Make it possible to disable a module for a renderer
* Put DesktopCapturer API under a build flag
The name is "enable_desktop_capturer".
Enabled by default.
* Don't use JSON to send the result of `ipcRenderer.sendSync`.
- Change the return type of AtomViewHostMsg_Message_Sync from `base::string16`
to `base::ListValue`
- Adjust lib/browser/api/web-contents.js and /lib/renderer/api/ipc-renderer.js
to wrap/unwrap return values to/from array, instead of
serializing/deserializing JSON.
This change can greatly improve `ipcRenderer.sendSync` calls where the return
value contains Buffer instances, because those are converted to Array before
being serialized to JSON(which has no efficient way of representing byte
arrays).
A simple benchmark where remote.require('fs') was used to read a 16mb file got
at least 5x faster, not to mention it used a lot less memory. This difference
tends increases with larger buffers.
* Don't base64 encode Buffers
* Don't allocate V8ValueConverter on the heap
* Replace hidden global.sandbox with NodeBindings::IsInitialized()
* Refactoring: check NodeBindings::IsInitialized() in V8ValueConverter
* Refactor problematic test to make it more reliable
* Add tests for NaN and Infinity
Use a single synchronous IPC call to retrieve data required by early
sandbox scripts. This has two purposes:
- Optimize preload script initialization by:
- Using one synchronous IPC call to retrieve preload script,
webContentsId (more on that later), process.{platform,execPath,env}
- Lazy loading as many modules as possible.
- Fix#12316 for sandbox. @MarshallOfSound addressed the issue in
#12342, but it was still present in sandbox mode. By loading
webContentsId very early and skipping remote module at early
startup, we fix it for sandbox.
- introduce a currentPlatformSupportsAppIndicator() function determining
if app indicators are supported here.
- handle undefined process.env.XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP
- added some comments to ensure that the intents are clear
Thanks MarshallOfSound
When the Chrome Extension has too many content scripts (above default
10 counts), there will be a warning: possible EventEmitter memory leak
detected. 11 listeners added.
* Refactor app.makeSingleInstance
* new API `app.isPrimaryInstance()`
* new API `app.isSingleInstance()`
* new event `app.on('second-instance')`
* deprecated old syntax `app.makeSingleInstance(cb)`
* deprecated old syntax of `app.makeSingleInstance() --> bool` in favor
of `app.isPrimaryInstance()`
* Fix spec, we don't need process.nextTick hacks any more
* Make deprecation TODO for the return value of makeSingleInstance
* Refactor makeSingleInstance to requestSingleInstanceLock and add appropriate deprecation comments
* I swear this isn't tricking the linter
* Make const
* Add deprecation warnings for release, and add to planned-breaking-changes
BREAKING CHANGE
Multiple sessions inherits the "ubuntu" base settings properties in ubuntu.
One of the most popular one is communitheme: the next ubuntu default theme
has its dedicated session, with thus duplicated indicators for dropbox.
Rather than a string comparison for ubuntu, only match a substring then.
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP can be of form: "communitheme:ubuntu:GNOME",
"ubuntu:GNOME", …
Fixes: #12843.
Add four new optional properties to menus in Electron. The four properties are:
'before'
'after'
'beforeGroupContaining'
'afterGroupContaining'
'before/after' - provides a means for a single context menu item to declare its placement relative to another context menu item. These also imply that menu item in question should be placed in the same “group” as the item.
'beforeGroupContaining/afterGroupContaining - provides a means for a single menu item to declare the placement of its containing group, relative to the containing group of the specified item.
* add did-frame-navigate event to WebContents, pass http response code to it and did-navigate
* docs for frame routing id related api changes on WebFrame and WebContents
* expose WebFrame#routingId and pass it to WebContents frame specific events along with frameProcessId; add WebContets.did-start-navigation event
* fix compilation error on ia32 Windows
* add cause property to exception in callFunction
* update exceptionToMeta function
* add sender argument
* and cause property to return value
* update exception convert in metaToValue function
* add from and cause properties to the exception error
* unit test for remote exception
* Add a screen_api_id parameter to the desktopCapturer API.
When using the DirectX capturer on Windows, there was previously no way
to associate desktopCapturer/getUserMedia and electron.screen API
screens. This new parameter provides the association.
