headless-browser currently uses its own PageClient to load web pages
in-process. Due to this, it also needs to set up a whole bunch of other
objects needed to run LibWeb, e.g. image decoders, request servers, etc.
This changes headless-browser to instead implement a WebView to launch
WebContent out-of-process. This implementation is almost entirely empty,
but can be filled in as-needed. For example, we may want to print
JavaScript console messages.
We should be able to run this locally, as long as ENABLE_LAGOM_LADYBIRD
is true, or if building ladybird from the ladybird source directory.
This removes a special case from the Lagom CI yml file.
This has been broken since the switch to the multiprocess architecture
(and even before then was very limited).
This restores the previous functionally and also implements the ability
to inspect individual elements (by selecting them in the tree view).
The inspector also now correctly updates when navigating between pages.
This adds a SQLServer binary for Ladybird to make use of Serenity's SQL
implementation. This has to use the same IPC socket handling that was
used to make WebContent and WebDriver work out-of-process.
Unlike Serenity, Ladybird creates a new SQLServer instance for each
Ladybird instance. In the future, we should try to make sure there is
only one SQLServer instance at a time, and allow multiple Ladybird
instances to communicate with it.
This adds a WebDriver binary for Ladybird to make use of Serenity's
WebDriver implementation. This has to use the same IPC socket handling
that was used to make WebContent work out-of-process. Besides that, we
are able to reuse almost everything from Serenity.
- Add Qt::Core, Qt::Gui, LibGfx, LibIPC, and LibJS to the ladybird
target, remove LibGL, LibSoftGPU, and LibWebSocket
- Add LibJS to the WebContent target, remove LibWebView
- Order them properly :^)
Regressed in https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/pull/15746.
Fixes#108.
There are no custom changes for Ladybird in the current copies of those
files, so we just need to ensure to keep Ladybird up to date for any
changes made upstream.

This fixes a build issue introduced by https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/pull/15736.
Always call platform_init after there's a QApplication, because in the
installed configuration that's how we find the resources.
Try QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() after looking in ./WebContent
for the WebContent process. In an installed configuration, ladybird and
WebContent will both be in $PREFIX/bin.
Add install rules for WebContent and its linked libraries, for if they
ever differ from ladybird's.
This causes CMake to output a WebContent build, without this it would
not build WebContent and Ladybird would be unusable since it couldn't
find the WebContent executable.
While this adds a fair bit of widget code, we're also increasing code
sharing by using the same bits in WebContentClient for interacting with
the JS console.
That said, we should look for more ways to share code here.
This patch brings over the WebContent process over from SerenityOS
to Ladybird, along with a new WebContentView widget that renders
web content in a separate process.
There's a lot of jank and FIXME material here, notably I had to re-add
manually pumped Core::EventLoop instances on both sides, in order to get
the IPC protocol running. This introduces a lot of latency and we should
work towards replacing those loops with improved abstractions.
The WebContent process is built separately here (not part of Lagom) and
we provide our own main.cpp for it. Like everything, this can be better
architected, it's just a starting point. :^)
We use a ModelTranslator to expose a DOMTreeModel from LibWebView :^)
It allows you to select the currently inspected node, which causes
the engine to render a little box model overlay above the web content.
This will allow us to share code with LibWebView from SerenityOS.
(This would otherwise not work, since its "WebView" namespace collides
with our "WebView" class.)
Also, we should eventually move towards a more sophisticated
multi-process WebView like OOPWV.
This setup should allow the package maintainers who are looking to
distribute ladybird on their distributions to use CMake to install
ladybird using cmake install rules rather than having to write their own
In the future, ladybird should probably use a QOpenGLWidget or similar
platform plugin to use the native GL implementation instead of the one
in serenity.
This patch removes the dual-event-loop setup, leaving only the Qt event
loop. We teach LibWeb how to drive Qt by installing an EventLoopPlugin.
This removes the 50ms latency on all UI interactions (and network
requests, etc.)
Build an Android APK file that, when configured properly in Qt Creator,
can be used to deploy the browser to an Android device.
The current build requires NDK 24, targets no less than Android API 30,
and Qt Creator 6.4.0.
- Silences the -Wuser-defined-literals warning which is triggered by our
use of the `sv` suffix for StringView
- Removes an unused captured `this` pointer [-Wunused-lambda-capture]
- Changes a JSONArray.h include to JSONObject.h to get the definition
for `JSONValue::serialize`. This is needed because template functions
are not exported for dylibs on macOS. This is a hack; the JSON headers
should be refactored so that each one includes the definition of
the template functions it sees. -- Maybe we should build with
-fvisibility-inlines-hidden on Linux to catch issues like this?
This patch takes the browser history code from the Serenity browser and
wires it up to the QT interface. This is tied in with a few extra
toolbar buttons associated with each tab.
This patch removes the browser WebView from the window and places it
inside a Tab object, all wrapped up in a QT tab control. So far you can
create tabs, but can't close them.
Until we can get our own RequestServer infrastructure up and running,
running the TLS and HTTP code in-process was causing lots of crashes
due to unexpected reentrancy via nested event loops.
This patch adds a simple backend for HTTP and HTTPS requests that simply
funnels them through QNetworkAccessManager.
