* refactor: bundle the browser and renderer process electron code
* Bundles browser/init and renderer/init
* Improves load performance of main process by ~40%
* Improves load performance of renderer process by ~30%
* Prevents users from importing our "requiring" our internal logic such
as ipc-main-internal. This makes those message buses safer as they are
less accessible, there is still some more work to be done though to lock
down those buses completely.
* The electron.asar file now only contains 2 files, as a future
improvement maybe we can use atom_natives to ship these two files
embedded in the binary
* This also removes our dependency on browserify which had some strange
edge cases that caused us to have to hack around require-order and
stopped us using certain ES6/7 features we should have been able to use
(async / await in some files in the sandboxed renderer init script)
TLDR: Things are faster and better :)
* fix: I really do not want to talk about it
* chore: add performance improvements from debugging
* fix: resolve the provided path so webpack thinks it is absolute
* chore: fixup per PR review
* fix: use webpacks ProvidePlugin to keep global, process and Buffer alive after deletion from global scope for use in internal code
* fix: bundle worker/init as well to make node-in-workers work
* chore: update wording as per feedback
* chore: make the timers hack work when yarn is not used
* spec: clean up after a failed window count assertion
Previously when this assertion failed all tests that ran after the
failed assertion also failed. This ensure that the assertion fails for
the test that actually caused the issue but cleans up the left-over
windows so that future tests do not fail.
* fix: maintain a ref count for objects sent over remote
Previously there was a race condition where a GC could occur in the
renderer process between the main process sending a meta.id and the
renderer pulling the proxy out its weakmap to stop it being GC'ed.
This fixes that race condition by maintaining a "sent" ref count in the
object registry and a "received" ref count in the object cache on the
renderer side. The deref request now sends the number of refs the
renderer thinks it owns, if the number does not match the value in the
object registry it is assumed that there is an IPC message containing a
new reference in flight and this race condition was hit.
The browser side ref count is then reduced and we wait for the new deref
message. This guaruntees that an object will only be removed from the
registry if every reference we sent has been guarunteed to be unreffed.

* don't register renderer side service until preload has been run
* update gn check targets list
* move interface registration back to RenderFrameCreated
* chore: make aliasify work on .ts files as well
* refactor: Port ipc-renderer-internal to TypeScript
* refactor: Correctly import internal ipcRenderer
* refactor: One more rename
* refactor: Fix one more lint issue
* refactor: Correctly reference ipcRendererInternal
* chore: refactor browser IPC into typescript
* chore: refactor app.ts into Typescript
* Refactors app.dock into cpp
* Removes app.launcher which has not existed for 3 years
* Removes 2 deprecated APIs (that have been deprecated for more than one
major)
* Refactors deprecate.ts as well
* chore: Add new webFrame IsolatedWorldInfo API and deprecate
* Flag deprecated methods in documentation
* address comments
* Address review comments
* remove unused variable
* Update based on review
* fix: do not create native api::WebFrame in webFrame
When reloading a page without restarting renderer process (for example
sandbox mode), the blink::WebFrame is not destroyed, but api::WebFrame
is always recreated for the new page context. This leaves a leak of
api::WebFrame.
* fix: remove spell checker when page context is released
* perf: use an internal module resolver instead of relative requires
* perf: memoize the results of getting exported Electron properties
* perf: make internal module changes consistent across sandboxed / bundled files
After the page does navigations, garbage collection can still happen in
the old context. This commit changes to store references to remote objects
by _pages_, instead of by _WebContents_.
* 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.
* 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.
* Fix non-Windows build.
* Fix Mac.
* Fix Mac harder.
* JS lint
* clang-format C++ code.
* IWYU
* display_id, Linux comment, better test
* lint
* Fix tests on Linux.
* Add display_id documentation.
* Remove the race condition between new process creation and old process releasing remote context
Previously there was a race condition where the getId() method would return the new context ID even
though the release was for the old context. This changes it to send the "initial" context ID with
the release message to ensure there is no race.
* fetch context ID from remote in sandbox mode
