- Hide notes, tags and related for feed items in itembox
- Add feed support for <enclosure> elements
- Add feed syncing methods for synced settings (additional work is
needed on the sync architecture to download synced settings from the
server)
- Change feed item clear policy to be less aggressive
- Adjust for deasyncification
- Disable translate-on-select
- Closeadomasven/zotero#7, Remove context menu items from feeds
While trying to get translation and citing working with asynchronously
generated data, we realized that drag-and-drop support was going to
be...problematic. Firefox only supports synchronous methods for
providing drag data (unlike, it seems, the DataTransferItem interface
supported by Chrome), which means that we'd need to preload all relevant
data on item selection (bounded by export.quickCopy.dragLimit) and keep
the translate/cite methods synchronous (or maintain two separate
versions).
What we're trying instead is doing what I said in #518 we weren't going
to do: loading most object data on startup and leaving many more
functions synchronous. Essentially, this takes the various load*()
methods described in #518, moves them to startup, and makes them operate
on entire libraries rather than individual objects.
The obvious downside here (other than undoing much of the work of the
last many months) is that it increases startup time, potentially quite a
lot for larger libraries. On my laptop, with a 3,000-item library, this
adds about 3 seconds to startup time. I haven't yet tested with larger
libraries. But I'm hoping that we can optimize this further to reduce
that delay. Among other things, this is loading data for all libraries,
when it should be able to load data only for the library being viewed.
But this is also fundamentally just doing some SELECT queries and
storing the results, so it really shouldn't need to be that slow (though
performance may be bounded a bit here by XPCOM overhead).
If we can make this fast enough, it means that third-party plugins
should be able to remain much closer to their current designs. (Some
things, including saving, will still need to be made asynchronous.)
Also:
- Remove last-sync-time mechanism for both WebDAV and ZFS, since it can
be determined by storage properties (mtime/md5) in data sync
- Add option to include synced storage properties in item toJSON()
instead of local file properties
- Set "Fake-Server-Match" header in setHTTPResponse() test support
function, which can be used for request count assertions -- see
resetRequestCount() and assertRequestCount() in webdavTest.js
- Allow string (e.g., 'to_download') instead of constant in
Zotero.Sync.Data.Local.setSyncState()
- Misc storage tweaks
Closes#864
This adds a 'channel' property to Zotero.HTTP.UnexpectedStatusException,
because the 'channel' property of the XHR can be garbage-collected
before handling, and the channel's 'securityInfo' property is necessary
to detect certificate errors.
Also:
* _finalizeErase in Zotero.DataObject is now inheritable
* Call _initErase before starting a DB transaction
* removes Zotero.Libraries.add and Zotero.Libraries.remove (doesn't seem like this is used any more)
This will appear much less frequently, since non-conflicting field changes on
both sides can be resolved automatically, but genuine field conflicts still
require manual conflict resolution.
The merge pane is no longer editable, since the itembox code to do that is
async and can't run in a modal window, but it's not really necessary,
particularly with conflicts happening less frequently.
TODO:
- Remote item deletions
- File conflicts
- Maybe handle some edge cases where the conflicted items fail to save
Save uploaded data to cache, and update local object if necessary (which
it mostly shouldn't be except for invalid characters and HTML filtering
in notes)
Also add some upload and JSON tests
There's a lot more to do, and this isn't ready for actual usage, but the
basic functionality is mostly in place and has decent test coverage. It
can successfully upgrade a library last used with classic syncing and
pull down changes via the API. Uploading mostly works but is currently
disabled for safety until it has better test coverage.
Downloaded JSON is first saved to a cache table, which is then used to
populate other tables and later for generating PATCH requests and
automatically resolving conflicts (since it shows what was changed
locally and what was changed remotely). Objects with unmet dependencies
or unknown fields are skipped for now but don't block the rest of the
sync.
Some of the bigger remaining to-dos:
- Tests for uploading
- Re-do the preferences to get an API key
- File sync integration
- Full-text syncing integration
- Manual conflict resolution (though this already includes much smarter
conflict handling that automatically resolves many conflicts)
And use it in resetDB() test support function, mainly to allow
skipBundledFiles for resetDB calls. Translator installation and
initialization can take a long time, but tests that need a clean DB
don't necessarily rely on translators. Without this, running resetDB()
in beforeEach() for many tests is prohibitively slow.
This uses ISO 8601 dates for generateAllTypesAndFieldsData (and
changes populateDBWithSampleData to use Item#fromJSON), and makes
translators expect ISO 8601 accessDates, although SQL accessDates are
still supported with a deprecation warning. Canonicalization happens in
Zotero.Translate, so I need to remember to update connectors as well.
And add group.fromJSON(json, userID), which sets editable and
filesEditable properties based on the group JSON (libraryReading, role
lists, etc.) and the given user
Waits for an alert or confirmation dialog to open and closes it
automatically, optionally after running onOpen(dialog) to check its
contents (e.g., with dialog.document.documentElement.textContent) and
optionally clicking a button other than 'accept' (e.g., 'cancel',
extra1').
Supports delayed accept buttons
And simplify tree view load event handling, which may or may not have
been contributing to intermittent test failures, but is cleaner this way
regardless.
Relations are now properties of collections and items rather than
first-class objects, stored in separate collectionRelations and
itemRelations tables with ids for subjects, with foreign keys to the
associated data objects.
Related items now use dc:relation relations rather than a separate table
(among other reasons, because API syncing won't necessarily sync both
items at the same time, so they can't be stored by id).
The UI assigns related-item relations bidirectionally, and checks for
related-item and linked-object relations are done unidirectionally by
default.
dc:isReplacedBy is now dc:replaces, so that the subject is an existing
object, and the predicate is now named
Zotero.Attachments.replacedItemPredicate.
Some additional work is still needed, notably around following
replaced-item relations, and migration needs to be tested more fully,
but this seems to mostly work.
getGroup() can be used to access a default group library for general
group tests. createGroup() can be used to create one for a particular
test or set of tests.
The test runner now downloads and caches the PDF tools for the current
platform within the test data directory and only redownloads them when
out of date, and it updates the download URL so that the full-text code
pulls from the cache directory via a file:// URL.
The installPDFTools() support function now installs the files directly
instead of going through the prefs, and a new uninstallPDFTools()
function removes the tools. Since the presence of the PDF tools can
affect other tests, tests that need the tools should install them in a
before() and uninstall them in an after(), leaving most tests to run
without PDF indexing.
This also adds a callback to the waitForWindow() support function. If a
modal dialog is opened, it blocks the next promise handler from running,
so a callback has to be used to interact with and close the dialog
immediately.
citeproc-js relies on this in several locations. Seems that Zotero passes these IDs to citeproc from the item picker. We also need to consider existing embedded items in Word/LO documents, but they do have embedded URIs, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Add functions to generate sample data for various formats
* Zotero Web API JSON (Zotero.Item::toJSON)
* CiteProc-JS JSON
* Export translator JSON
* Direct serialization of Zotero.Item fields
Add a way to load sample data into DB from JSON
Add tests for loading sample data into DB
Add tests for automatically generated data
This will help us make sure that field mappings and data formats don't change
Get rid of data_access.js, at long last. Existing calls to
Zotero.getCollections() will need to be replaced with
Zotero.Collections.getByLibrary() or .getByParent().
Also removes Zotero.Collection::getCollections(), which is redundant
with Zotero.Collections.getByLibrary(), and Zotero.Collections.add().
The latter didn't didn't include a libraryID anyway, so code might as
well just use 'new Zotero.Collection' instead.
- Fixes some saving and erasing issues with collections and searches
- Adds Zotero.DataObject::eraseTx() to automatically start transaction,
and have .erase() log a warning like .save()
- Adds createUnsavedDataObject() and createDataObject() helper functions
for tests
The window created by loadWindow() is still empty, but this removes the
'chrome' flag for loadBrowserWindow(), which causes the Firefox UI to be
shown.
I think openDialog calls are always chrome, but providing just the
chrome flag disables all other options (e.g., navbar).
Fix a couple cases of lost text field focus after an edit, including
focusing of the Title field after using New Item when a field is already
being edited and has a changed value.
Also, in tests, select My Library and wait for items to load when using
the loadZoteroPane() support function. We could add a parameter to skip
that or move it to a separate function, but the code to detect it is a
bit convoluted and it's a prerequisite for many tests, so it's handy to
have a function for it.
Also:
- Return an object from `Zotero.Search.prototype.getConditions()`
instead of an array.
- Add support function `getPromiseError(promise)` to return the error
thrown from a chain of promises, or false if none. (We could make an
`assert.throwsAsync()`, but this allows testing of various properties
such as `.name`, which even the built-in `assert.throws()` can't
test.)
- Clarify some search save errors
Also some support code that was useful here and will probably be
useful for other tests. This is a pretty complicated thing to test, but
it seems to work.
