This commit adds searchengine support to tridactyl. Avoiding code
duplication between open and tabopen required changing the way tabopen
works: first, it opens a new tab pointing to Tridactyl's newtab page and
only after that does it actually navigate to where the user wants.
Before this commit, Tridactyl checked if `nativeopen` was currently
supported in `tabopen` rather than in nativeopen itself. This was a
problem because nothing prevented a user from manually calling
`:nativeopen`. The check has been moved to `nativeopen`.
Another issue was that in case of failure, Tridactyl wouldn't properly
clean up event handlers created in nativeopen. This would result in new
tabs being moved to surprising indexes. This wasn't a big deal because
said event handlers removed themselves after executing once but it'd
still result in a bug. This has been fixed too.
Apparently, on github,
`document.querySelectorAll("a,link[rel='alternate']")` can return
anchors that are actually svg elements. This would be fine if these
elements had string hrefs, but that's not the case. These elements have
svg hrefs and this makes getRssLinks() fail, which in turn makes opening
the command line fail because of completions. The easy solution is to
simply make sure elements have a string href. The hard solution is
creating a proper statusline where errors will be logged without taking
over the command line.
https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/1197 is a bug where
settings aren't properly loaded on `:source` because tridactyl performs
concurrent writes on the config. Making sure every function/excmd
returns its last promise restores synchronicity when it's needed and
should thus fix#1197.
https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/1288 reports that
Tridactyl will happily overwrite a setting the type of which is
`object` with a string. This was caused by not checking whether
the setting being overwritten was a top-level object or a member of said
object. This commit fixes that.
Closes#1288.
Standards are for nerds and the BBC isn't for nerds, that's why they use
regular anchors instead of alternate links in order to point to rss
documents on the following page:
https://www.bbc.com/news/10628494
This commit makes sure these links are also picked up by rssexec.
The getrss command lives in the background for easy communication with
the native messenger and uses a helper, getRssLinks, that lives in the
content script.
Awaiting a promise before returning it doesn't make sense if the await
isn't in a try/catch as awaiting forces a function to be async and thus
turns its return value and any error it might throw into a promise.
Worse than that, it can result in an unnecessary context switch which
could be bad for performance.
Before this commit, hint -c would only use the `selectors` parameter in
order to find the elements it needed to add hints to. This was a problem
when using invocations such as `:hint -c a, b`, because `b` would be put
in the rest argument by the excmd parser and `:hint` would end up trying
to use the `a, ` selector alone, which isn't a valid selector and then
would make the whole command fail.
This commit fixes that by making sure `hint -c` uses all available
arguments as selectors.
It seems the actual change in PR #1150 (a09a771) has been lost in its merge (6562699).
This should now actually fix Issue #1084 and ignore hidden tabs when cycling through tabs.
As discussed on riot, turning noiframeon into a site-specific setting
is a good thing for consistency. This commit also adds a deprecation
warning when users try to `:set noiframeon` and updates the
troubleshooting guide.
Issue #1176 was introduced in #1026. It should have been fixed in #1157
but slipped through the cracks. It made me realize that a few other
links were broken and so I fixed them.
Closes#1176.
currently it only works on web pages and not within commandline! Cos
windows platform dosn't have primary selection, execution of <S-Insert> will silently fail
As cmcaine said in #1149, the help page links are currently broken
because typedoc tries to generate documentation for source files in the
`compiler/` directory. I just realized that before #1026, these files
were not referenced in any of the files in the `src` directory and this
is why typedoc ignored them. This change happened because I wanted to
type the metadata.
There are three possible solution to #1149.
- Go back to untyped metadata.
- Move the metadata types to Tridactyl's src directory on build.
- Update all links to the doc.
I believe having typed metadata is useful and I'd like to keep it that
way. Moving the metadata types to Tridactyl's src directory is certainly
doable but doesn't sound like the best idea to me, we're unnecessarily
copying files. Updating the links to the doc sounds reasonable as it's
only a one-time thing and so this is what this commit does in order to
close#1149.
