Now we will only load resources from $build/share/Lagom. On macOS, we
load from the bundle directory Contents/Resources instead. This
simplifies the commands and environment variables needed to execute
Ladybird from the build directory, and makes our install setup less
awkward for distributions and packagers.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).
This commit is auto-generated:
$ xs=$(ack -l \bDeprecatedString\b\|deprecated_string AK Userland \
Meta Ports Ladybird Tests Kernel)
$ perl -pie 's/\bDeprecatedString\b/ByteString/g;
s/deprecated_string/byte_string/g' $xs
$ clang-format --style=file -i \
$(git diff --name-only | grep \.cpp\|\.h)
$ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')
Pages like the new tab page, error page, etc. all belong solely to
Ladybird, but are scattered across a couple of subfolders in Base. This
moves them all to Base/res/ladybird.
In order for same-origin NavigableContainers (iframe, frame, embed, ...)
and window.open() WindowProxies to have the proper JS access to their
embedder/opener, we need to host multiple top level traversables in the
same WebContent process. As a first step, make WebContent::PageHost hold
a HashMap of PageClient objects, each holding their own Web::Page that
represents a TraversableNavigable's API surface with the UI process.
If PulseAudio is available, the Qt6 audio plugin will never be used. So
let's remove it from the build.
Note that on macOS, the Qt6 audio plugin will be used if the Qt chrome
is enabled. Otherwise, Audio Unit will be used for the AppKit chrome.
The error.html page now uses the resource_directory_url this
variable contains the relative path to /Base/res/ on the host
system as a file:// url. This is needed for future pages to load
resource files like icons. For the error.html page this was not
really needed because it lies over this own URL in FrameLoader.cpp.
This will allow us to bring the WebContent process into non-Qt macOS
chromes. This branch is only reached when creating an <audio> element,
so while the chrome is heavily under development, we can just avoid
these elements.
This will help a lot with developing chromes for different UI frameworks
where we can see which helper classes and processes are really using Qt
vs just using it to get at helper data.
As a bonus, remove Qt dependency from WebDriver.
This object is available as `window.internals` (or just `internals`) and
is only accessible while running in "test mode".
This first version only has one API: gc(), which triggers a garbage
collection immediately.
In the future, we can add more APIs here to help us test parts of the
engine that are hard or impossible to reach via public web APIs.
The implementation of this plugin is meant to eventually replace all
current audio plugins in Ladybird. The benefits over the current Qt-
based audio playback plugin in Ladybird are:
- Low latency: With direct access to PulseAudio, we can ask for a
specific latency to output to allow minimal delay when pausing or
seeking a stream.
- Accurate timestamps: The Qt audio playback API does not expose audio
time properly. When we have access directly to PulseAudio APIs, we can
enable their timing interpolation to get an accurate monotonically-
increasing timestamp of the playing audio.
- Resiliency: With more control over how the underlying audio API is
called, we have the power to fix most bugs we might encounter. The
PulseAudio wrappers already avoid some bugs that occur with QAudioSink
when running through WSLg.
Now that all the classes for Ladybird are in the Ladybird namespace, we
don't need them named as Ladybird::FooBarLadybird. For the Qt-specific
classes, we can tack on a Qt at the end for clarity, but FontPlugin and
ImageCodecPlugin no longer have anything to do with Qt.
We were super inconsistent about this, with most "new" classes living in
the Ladybird namespace, while "old" ones were in the global namespace,
or even sitting in the Browser namespace.
LibTLS still can't access many parts of the web, so let's hide this
behind a flag (with all the plumbing that entails).
Hopefully this can encourage folks to improve LibTLS's algorithm support
:^).
The Qt relationship was removed in de31a8a4, so let's acknowledge that
and make it clearer to potential non-Qt ports that this file is usable
by them :^).
Now that we no longer use QFont from LibWeb, we can also stop using
QGuiApplication in the WebContent process entirely.
This removes a whole bunch of unnecessary work from the event loop,
and also allows nice things like running headless-browser while
*actually* headless. :^)
The main thread in the WebContent process is often busy with layout and
running JavaScript. This can cause audio to sound jittery and crack. To
avoid this behavior, we now drive audio on a secondary thread.
Note: Browser on Serenity uses AudioServer, the connection for which is
already handled on a secondary thread within LibAudio. So this only
applies to Lagom.
Rather than using LibThreading, our hands are tied to QThread for now.
Internally, the Qt media objects use a QTimer, which is forbidden from
running on a thread that is not a QThread (the debug console is spammed
with messages pointing this out). Ideally, in the future AudioServer
will be able to run for non-Serenity platforms, and most of this can be
aligned with the Serenity implementation.
This creates (and installs upon WebContent startup) a platform plugin to
play audio data.
On Serenity, we use AudioServer to play audio over IPC. Unfortunately,
AudioServer is currently coupled with Serenity's audio devices, and thus
cannot be used in Ladybird on Lagom. Instead, we use a Qt audio device
to play the audio, which requires the Qt multimedia package.
While we use Qt to play the audio, note that we can still use LibAudio
to decode the audio data and retrieve samples - we simply send Qt the
raw PCM signals.
The WebContent process behaves a bit awkwardly on macOS. When we launch
the process, we have to create a QGuiApplication to access system fonts.
But on macOS, doing so creates an entry in the Dock, and also causes the
WebContent to be focused. So if you enter cmd+Q without first focusing
the Ladybird GUI, WebContent is closed, while the Ladybird process keeps
running.
Things such as timers and notifiers aren't specific to one instance of
Core::EventLoop, so let's not tie them down to EventLoopImplementation.
Instead, move those APIs + signals & a few other things to a new
EventLoopManager interface. EventLoopManager also knows how to create a
new EventLoopImplementation object.
Now that the Core::EventLoop is driven by a QEventLoop in Ladybird,
we don't need to patch LibWeb with Web::Platform plugins.
This patch removes EventLoopPluginQt and TimerQt.
Note that we can't just replace the Web::Platform abstractions with
LibCore stuff immediately, since the Web::Platform APIs use
JS::SafeFunction for callbacks.
This patch adds EventLoopImplementationQt which is a full replacement
for the Core::EventLoopImplementationUnix that uses Qt's event loop
as a backend instead.
This means that Core::Timer, Core::Notifier, and Core::Event delivery
are all driven by Qt primitives in the Ladybird UI and WC processes.
Not a single client of this API actually used the event mask feature to
listen for readability AND writability.
Let's simplify the API and have only one hook: on_activation.
We never clear content filters on either end of the Browser-WebContent
IPC connection. So when the filters change, we re-append all filters to
the Vector holding them. This incidentally makes it impossible to remove
a filter.
Change both sides to clear their filter lists when receiving a new set
of filters.
Currently, on Serenity, we connect to WebDriver from the browser-side of
the WebContent connection for both Browser and headless-browser.
On Lagom, we connect from within the WebContent process itself, signaled
by a command line flag.
This patch changes Lagom browsers to connect to WebDriver the same way
that Serenity browsers do. This will ensure we can do other initializers
in the same order across all platforms and browsers.
