* plugin loader(feat): support loading plugins from user defined directories
Extra plugin lookup paths can be set in global reader setting via key
`extra_plugin_paths`. Value of the key can either be a string or an array
of strings.
* build(fix): also purge non-exist plugins on build
* plugin: migrate debug plugin to menu sorter
and have more confidence with the unit testing framework.
Now `make testfront` won't retry on failure and testing files are
ordered in each run so that it's possible to reproduce testing failure.
And this patch also fix flush settings not working before suspend issue:
at some point the `FlushSettings` event is sent to `UIManager` instead
of `ReaderUI`, but `UIManager` only delegated events to active widgets
and `ReaderUI` is actually not an active widgets thus will miss the event.
This patch also add a verbose debug mode with "-v" as a switch to turn
on this mode. With verbose mode on, event handling will be logged.
Some kobo touch devices have X Y coordinates in touch events swapped.
This patch provides a GUI to probe if the device needs to swap the XY.
The Kobo Touch users will be directed to tap on the upper right corner
of the screen and the probe will check if the X value is smaller than
the Y value in the tap event.
Currently only tested on Ubuntu-touch emulator with framework
ubuntu-sdk-14.10 for armhf.
The ubuntu-touch port is binary compatible with the Kobo port
major changes in this PR are:
1. rename the emulator device to sdl device since both the emulator
and the ubuntu-touch target use libsdl to handle input/output.
2. ubuntu-touch app has no write access to the installation dir so
all write-outs should be in a seperate dir definded in `datastorage`.
The new container-based format doesn't do sudo anymore, so there are some extensive changes.
It does, however, allow cache.
I also took the opportunity to switch to a newer busted. The root element for that now needs to be a table.
On kindle, kobo and pocketbook the data directory is the current
running directory but on Android the app is installed in system
defined location and users may have no access to that location.
The same circumstances should be true for the upcoming Koreader for
Ubuntu touch, so the data directory (in which tessdata, dictionaries,
global settings, persistant defaults and probably history data are
stored) could be stored in another place.
since users may have mantained their own extensions.cfg file
The extensions.cfg file is still in the release package and users
could manually copy the `system` directory to the USB root if they
want Koreader to handle all their documents.
