Thanks to <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/5237> we can now extract the knowledge currently embedded in Transifex and put it directly in our source. This positively affects <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/3754>.
Translation instructions and knowledge that comes out of localization-related questions should be preserved in the source, because Transifex is too ephemeral. For example, the links from <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/2290> are no longer accessible. Even when they are, it's quite useful to have this information around while dealing with the code as well, and I also hope it'll be informative to contributors who seldom visit Transifex.
This commit also makes a few minor changes to obviate the need for comments where possible.
It was doing a full document load to get the cover. It now does
the faster "only metadata" load.
Also move the trick of setting a default font in CreDocument, so
that all callers of document:loadDocument(false) benefit from it.
Prevent crash when no cover image is available (even if the cache
says it has one, the file may have been updated and doesn't have
it anymore).
Avoids a use-after-free in mupdf.scaleBlitBuffer
Fixkoreader/koreader-base#821
Thanks for the hint, @poire-z ;).
* As @poire-z suggested, the original unscaled bb should probably be free'd.
* Enable HW dithering on supported devices (Clara HD, Forma; Oasis 2, PW4)
* FileManager and co. (where appropriate, i.e., when covers are shown)
* Book Status
* Reader, where appropriate:
* CRe: on pages whith image content (for over 7.5% of the screen area, should hopefully leave stuff like bullet points or small scene breaks alone).
* Other engines: on user-request (in the gear tab of the bottom menu), via the new "Dithering" knob (will only appear on supported devices).
* ScreenSaver
* ImageViewer
* Minimize repaints when flash_ui is enabled (by, almost everywhere, only repainting the flashing element, and not the toplevel window which hosts it).
(The first pass of this involved fixing a few Button instances whose show_parent was wrong, in particular, chevrons in the FM & TopMenu).
* Hunted down a few redundant repaints (unneeded setDirty("all") calls),
either by switching the widget to nil when only a refresh was needed, and not a repaint,
or by passing the appropritate widget to setDirty.
(Note to self: Enable *verbose* debugging to catch broken setDirty calls via its post guard).
There were also a few instances of 'em right behind a widget close.
* Don't repaint the underlying widget when initially showing TopMenu & ConfigDialog.
We unfortunately do need to do it when switching tabs, because of their variable heights.
* On Kobo, disabled the extra and completely useless full refresh before suspend/reboot/poweroff, as well as on resume. No more double refreshes!
* Fix another debug guard in Kobo sysfs_light
* Switch ImageWidget & ImageViewer mostly to "ui" updates, which will be better suited to image content pretty much everywhere, REAGL or not.
PS: (Almost 💯 commits! :D)
Revert 9971eb85 and make multi-lines strings more readable.
(Multiline translatable strings extraction has been fixed
in koreader-misc tralua_xgettext.py.)
Some problem somewhere with [[...]] strings starting with a
leading newline. Should probably be allowed, but for now
fix the few such cases to allow them being translated.
* Only switch to ondemand when we actually can, and when it's better than the current governor...
This potentially leaves Mk.5 in the lurch, but there's no perfect solution there :/.
* Switch to UI for the unmark event of navigation hints markers
Might help on non-REAGL devices, and doesn't hurt there (re #3983).
* Switch SQLite DBs to WAL
Sounds nice in theory, behaves fine in practice.
It was enabled by default, but it's mostly only needed for CJK users.
Furthermore, when floating punctuation is enabled, some rendering
issues exist (text right alignment, variable margins...) that
only CJK developpers could really fix. So, best to disable it and
avoid these rendering issues for most users.
Also: fix CoverBrowser crash when "Delete cache database"
followed by "Prune cache of removed books".
The Dogear icon is 20x20 pixels and was never scaled where used. Now:
- The bookmark icon (top right of screen) is scaled to 1/32th of the screen
width (previously, it was 1/30th on a 600px wide emulator, 1/53th on a GloHD).
On CreDocument, furthermore decrease its size if needed depending on the
selected margins so it never overwrite the text.
- CoverBrowser list view: scale it to the available room under
the "N % of P page" text, so it does not cover "page".
- CoverBrowser mosaic view: scale it to 1/16th of the cover rectangle, which
should prevent if from overwritting the text thanks to a max text width of
7/8 of the cover rectangle.
Also for CoverBrowser: don't index metadata for unsupported document
(which could happen when browsing files with PathChooser) and show
full filename for such documents.
Also: ImageWidget: small fix in case we use both scale_factor and
scale_for_dpi.
New module RenderImage (alongside existing RenderText) to provides
image rendering and scaling facilities.
Uses MuPDF, but tries first giflib on GIF.
Allows for getting all the frames from an animated GIF.
This adds a button to the Tap Plus menu, that allows
extracting metadata and cover images for books in
current directory. Info about the process and questions are
initially shown and asked, and the process can be aborted at
any moment.
bump crengine:
Allow for quicker loading when interested in metadata only.
Allow for more than 65535 different attribute values.
Increase gamma values range.
Remove the subprocess management functions from xutil.lua, as they were
moved into base/ffi/util.lua, and use them from there.
Also use the cre_storage_size_factor setting when processing credocuments,
to avoid CRE WARNING while indexing too.
Fix dealing with MuPDF document opening failures (previously, these
were not noticed and indexing was retried each time).
cre:loadDocument() may fail in recognizing the document format, and
koreader would previously keep calling other methods on it, which would
make crengine segfaults. We now check loadDocument success at the
various places it is called, and try to deal the best way we can when it fails.
We previously disabled cache, but that may cause excessive
memory usage with big books. We now use a temporary
cache directory, that we clean when no more needed.
So an image file can have a cover in coverbrowser's display.
It also allows for an alternative viewer (ImageViewer widget)
when holding on file / View full size cover.
* CoverBrowser plugin: alt views for File Browser and History
* Added Prune cache and Compact cache menu actions
* Support for book descriptions, and settings stored in db
