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)
Firefox no longer supports transparent windows because it made them do
extra preprocessing on a file to restore the drop shadow when the
Developer Edition theme was active:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1162649
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
If a file existed locally but somehow ended up marked as to-download without
existing on the server, it was never uploaded. I'm not sure when this can
happen, but I saw it while messing around. Maybe switching between ZFS and
WebDAV?
This will still only check and upload if there's another computer syncing files
to the same library, but we'll check all files in 5.0.
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)
Previously, if .synced was already true, setting it to true and saving
would result in .synced == false unless skipSyncedUpdate was passed. Now
the value assigned to .synced is always used on the next save. If the
value hasn't changed and no other values have changed, a save will be a
no-op.
The default items cause problems with conflict resolution for existing
users (and not syncing them or ignoring conflicts for them is kind of
weird), and they require remote changes for new databases. I do like
there not being a completely empty library, but I think it's probably
better just to display a virtual welcome message with a link to the
Quick Start Guide somewhere else, such as in the right-hand pane. (A new
installation also opens the start page on zotero.org.)
Allow saving of CSS links over chrome://. We can scope this to
chrome://global/skin/aboutReader.css if anyone thinks of a reason why
this was disabled to begin with, but I'm not sure in what other
situations CSS it would apply.
- Restore About Zotero item
- Fix Quit item
- Close Standalone when Standalone window is closed (we did this before,
but apparently having our own hidden window breaks that mechanism)
Technically rather than waiting for the schema update we should wait for
translator initialization, which should wait for the schema update
itself, but the schema update also needs to initialize the translators,
so avoiding a hang is tricky, particularly with the use of Zotero.lazy()
for Zotero.Translators.init(). For now, just wait for the schema update.
Clicking the separate buttons would trigger actions in the first window
opened, and other things might not have been updating properly across
multiple windows.
Previously, clicking directly on a noautohide guidance panel closed it, even if
there was a forward nav button. (In the case of the main and save button
guidance panels, the save button would appear on the next Firefox restart, but
this ensures that the save guidance panel will be shown to new users even if
they click on the panel instead of the not-particularly-noticeable forward
button.)
In practice, this appears to be both unnecessary and harmful. Although
the first write happens effectively instantaneously, we can take
several hundred milliseconds to read the second write, and Standalone
can decide we are dead.
This apparently fixes#783 for @dstillman, although I was never able to
reproduce locally.
(I don't see any obvious reason I can't do this. We should probably clean this
up later, not call the endpoint "saveSnapshot", etc. Also, is there a reason it
doesn't follow the snapshot pref by default?)
And fix save button hover height on Windows, which somehow got out of
whack again.
Might need further tweaking on Linux
Need to find a better way to do these buttons...
Since modal windows (e.g., the Create Bib window and the Quick Copy site
editor window) can't use yield, style retrieval
(Zotero.Styles.getVisible()/getAll()) is now synchronous, depending on a
previous async Zotero.Styles.init(). The translator list is generated in
the prefs window and passed into the Quick Copy site editor, but it's
possible the translators API should be changed to make getTranslators()
synchronous with a prior init() as well.
For new installations, a panel will show for the Z icon with a ">"
button to go to a second panel for the save icon. For existing
installations, a panel will show just for the save icon. In both cases,
the panels are non-auto-hiding but are dismissed if clicked on or when a
new content page is loaded.
There's also a new close button, but it's not enabled currently. Might
be useful for panels with embedded links where an accidental click on
the panel alone shouldn't close the panel (like the Firefox customize
mode wizard).
- When relinking a missing stored file, copy it into the attachment's
storage directory automatically
- Previously, selecting a file outside the attachment subdir would
just result in a missing attachment, since it only looks for stored
files within the subdir
- Display an error message if a Windows shortcut (.lnk) is added via
drag-and-drop or via a file dialog on non-Windows systems, until we
can figure out how to determine the original file
- Shortcuts can cause errors during syncing, for unclear reasons
- Neither nsIFile::copyToFollowingLinks() nor nsIFile::target work for
me to get the original file, even when nsIFile::isSymlink() returns
true
- Windows file dialogs seem to automatically resolve shortcuts, so
it's only an issue there for drag-and-drop
- Disallow hidden files from being selected in relink dialog
- I think some people on Windows with hidden files shown relink the
.zotero* files that show up when they click Locate, which causes
file sync errors. Which brings us to...
- Fix file sync errors for *.lnk and .zotero* files
- Ignore existing .zotero* attachment files, treating the files as
missing instead to encourage relinking
- Strip leading period in getValidFileName() to prevent added files from
being hidden
- This allows hidden files to be added explicitly; they just won't
stay that way in the storage directory
(These things should have tests, but that will have to happen on the 5.0
branch.)
- Simplified schema
- Tags are now added without reloading entire tag selector
- On my system, adding 400 tags to an item (separately, with the tag
selector updating each time) went from 59 seconds to 42. (Given that
it takes only 13 seconds with the tag selector closed, though,
there's clearly more work to be done.)
- Tag selector now uses HTML flexbox (in identical fashion, for now, but
with the possibility of fancier changes later, and with streamlined
logic thanks to the flexbox 'order' property)
- Various async fixes
- Tests
To be used by updated deletion listener in new sync code
Also adds explicit Zotero.SyncedSettings.clear() in place of
Zotero.SyncSettings.set() without a value
Still need to make the progress indicator work again. Also there may be
some performance to be gained by pooling item saves into a transaction
if one is already open.
Restore prepopulated charset table, but this time with just the
encodings from the WHATWG Encoding Standard. Assigning a charset to
Zotero.Item::attachmentCharset runs the value through
Zotero.CharacterSets.toCanonical() automatically.
This migrates attachment charsets to the new canonical values, clearing any
that are unsupported.
Other legacy mappings could still be added back, as disussed in #760.
This output is basically only useful when something hangs, so it can
stay off all other times.
For now, 6 can be the new only-use-when-something-is-actively-broken
level. At some point we may want to move DB activity to 4 and make this
sort of thing 5, because we don't have much that's 4 right now.
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
sinon.useFakeXMLHttpRequest() doesn't work in our case, but if
Zotero.HTTP.mock is set, Zotero.HTTP.request() will create new instances of
that object instead of the built-in XMLHttpRequest, so it can be set to
FakeXMLHttpRequest:
Zotero.HTTP.mock = sinon.FakeXMLHttpRequest;
var server = sinon.fakeServer.create();
server.autoRespond = true;
server.respondWith("GET", "/users/1",
[200, {"Content-Type": "application/json"}, '{"userID": 1}']);
var userInfo = yield getUser();
Zotero.HTTP.mock = null;
server.restore(); // probably not necessary
Also adds Zotero.DataObjects::getLoaded(), which returns an array of all
loaded objects of the given type. This is useful for selective
reloading, for example with item.reload(['relations'], true).
In particular, 0 is kept as a value, and passing undefined to setField
now throws an error.
I'm not sure if we actually want to return an empty string in all cases
for missing/invalid fields, but that's what we do currently.
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.
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.
Character sets are now populated on demand, so they can't be run through
Zotero.CharacterSets.getName() in getContentsAsync(), since they might
not exist. (I'm also not sure why this was being done anyway.)
