This commit improves the management of script execution process by
enhancing the way terminal commands are handled, paving the way for
easier future modifications and providing clearer feedback to users when
scripts are cancelled.
Previously, the UI displayed a generic error message which could lead to
confusion if the user intentionally cancelled the script execution. Now,
a specific error dialog will appear, improving the user experience by
accurately reflecting the action taken by the user.
This change affects code execution on Linux where closing GNOME terminal
returns exit code `137` which is then treated by script cancellation by
privacy.sexy to show the accurate error dialog. It does not affect macOS
and Windows as curret commands result in success (`0`) exit code on
cancellation.
Additionally, this update encapsulates OS-specific logic into dedicated
classes, promoting better separation of concerns and increasing the
modularity of the codebase. This makes it simpler to maintain and extend
the application.
Key changes:
- Display a specific error message for script cancellations.
- Refactor command execution into dedicated classes.
- Improve file permission setting flexibility and avoid setting file
permissions on Windows as it's not required to execute files.
- Introduce more granular error types for script execution.
- Increase logging for shell commands to aid in debugging.
- Expand test coverage to ensure reliability.
- Fix error dialogs not showing the error messages due to incorrect
propagation of errors.
Other supported changes:
- Update `SECURITY.md` with details on script readback and verification.
- Fix a typo in `IpcRegistration.spec.ts`.
- Document antivirus scans in `desktop-vs-web-features.md`.
This commit upgrades TypeScript to the latest version 5.3 and introduces
`verbatimModuleSyntax` in line with the official Vue guide
recommendatinos (vuejs/docs#2592).
By enforcing `import type` for type-only imports, this commit improves
code clarity and supports tooling optimization, ensuring imports are
only bundled when necessary for runtime.
Changes:
- Bump TypeScript to 5.3.3 across the project.
- Adjust import statements to utilize `import type` where applicable,
promoting cleaner and more efficient code.
This commit centralizes the styling of key UI elements across the
project to ensure:
- Consistent look and feel.
- Enhanced code reusability.
- Simpified maintenance, improving development speed.
It establishes a uniform foundation that can be leveraged across
different parts of the project, even enabling the styling to be shared
across different websites (supporting issue #49).
Key changes:
- Apply the following shared styles globally:
* Styling of code, blockquotes, superscripts, horizontal rules and
anchors.
* Vertical and horizontal spacing.
- Segregate base styling into dedicated SCSS files for clearer structure
and increased maintainability.
- Remove custom styling from affected components, enabling global style
reuse for visual uniformity, reduced redundancy, and enhanced
semantics.
Other supporting changes:
- Rename `globals.scss` to `base.scss` for better clarity.
- Add `.editorconfig` for `.scss` files to ensure consistent whitespace
usage.
- Remove `2` file from the project root, that was included in the source
code by mistake.
- Remove unused font-face imports
- Include the script's directory path #304.
- Exclude Windows-specific instructions on non-Windows OS.
- Standardize language across dialogs for consistency.
Other supporting changes:
- Add script diagnostics data collection from main process.
- Document script file storage and execution tamper protection in
SECURITY.md.
- Remove redundant comment in `NodeReadbackFileWriter`.
- Centralize error display for uniformity and simplicity.
- Simpify `WindowVariablesValidator` to omit checks when not on the
renderer process.
- Improve and centralize Electron environment detection.
- Use more emphatic language (don't worry) in error messages.
- Add Windows instruction dialog when saving scripts for Windows.
- Fix incorrect macOS download URL given for Linux instructions.
- Refactor UI rendering, eleminating the use of `v-html` and JavaScript
variables to hold HTML code.
Improve script execution in the desktop app by introducing timestamped
filenames and detailed logging. These changes aim to facilitate easier
debugging, auditing and overall better user experience.
Key changes:
- Add timestamps in filenames for temporary files to aid in
troubleshooting and auditing.
- Add application logging throughout the script execution process to
enhance troubleshooting capabilities.
Other supporting changes:
- Refactor `TemporaryFileCodeRunner` with subfunctions for improved
readability, maintenance, reusability and extensibility.
- Refactor unit tests for `TemporaryFileCodeRunner` for improved
granularity and simplicity.
- Create centralized definition of supported operating systems by
privacy.sexy to ensure robust and consistent test case creation.
- Simplify the `runCode` method by removing the file extension
parameter; now handled internally by `FileNameGenerator`.
This commit fixes layout shifts experienced in macOS Safari when
hovering over top menu items. Instead of making text bold — which was
causing layout shifts — the hover effect now changes the text color.
This ensures a consistent UI across different browsers and platforms.
Additionally, this commit fixes the styling of the privacy button
located in the bottom right corner. Previously styled as an `<a>`
element, it is now correctly represented as a `<button>`.
Furthermore, the commit enhances HTML conformity and accessibility by
correctly using `<button>` and `<a>` tags instead of relying on click
interactions on `<span>` elements.
This commit introduces `FlatButton` Vue component and a new
`flat-button` mixin. These centralize button usage and link styles,
aligning the hover/touch reactions of buttons across the application,
thereby creating a more consistent user interface.
This commit applies `strictNullChecks` to the entire codebase to improve
maintainability and type safety. Key changes include:
- Remove some explicit null-checks where unnecessary.
- Add necessary null-checks.
- Refactor static factory functions for a more functional approach.
- Improve some test names and contexts for better debugging.
- Add unit tests for any additional logic introduced.
- Refactor `createPositionFromRegexFullMatch` to its own function as the
logic is reused.
- Prefer `find` prefix on functions that may return `undefined` and
`get` prefix for those that always return a value.
This commit improves the dependency injection mechanism by introducing a
custom `injectKey` function.
Key improvements are:
- Enforced type consistency during dependency registration and
instantiation.
- Simplified injection process, abstracting away the complexity with a
uniform API, regardless of the dependency's lifetime.
- Eliminated the possibility of `undefined` returns during dependency
injection, promoting fail-fast behavior.
- Removed the necessity for type casting to `symbol` for injection keys
in unit tests by using existing types.
- Consalidated imports, combining keys and injection functions in one
`import` statement.
This commit fixes the bug where the "Copy" button does not copy when
clicked on download instructions modal (on Linux and macOS).
This commit also introduces several improvements to the UI components
related to copy action and their interaction with the clipboard feature.
It adds more tests to avoid regression of the bugs and improves
maintainability, testability and adherence to Vue's reactive principles.
Changes include:
- Fix non-responsive copy button in the download instructions modal by
triggering a `click` event in `AppIcon.vue`.
- Improve `TheCodeButtons.vue`:
- Remove redundant `getCurrentCode` function.
- Separate components for each button for better separation of
concerns and higher testability.
- Use the `gap` property in the flexbox layout, replacing the less
explicit sibling combinator approach.
- Add `useClipboard` compositional hook for more idiomatic Vue approach
to interacting with the clipboard.
- Add `useCurrentCode` compositional hook to handle current code state
more effectively with unified logic.
- Abstract clipboard operations to an interface to isolate
responsibilities.
- Switch clipboard implementation to the `navigator.clipboard` API,
moving away from the deprecated `document.execCommand`.
- Move clipboard logic to the presentation layer to conform to
separation of concerns and domain-driven design principles.
- Improve `IconButton.vue` component to increase reusability with
consistent sizing.
As part of transition to Vue 3.0 and Vite (#230), this commit
facilitates the shift towards building rest of the application using
Vite. By doing so, it eliminates reliance on outdated Electron building
system that offered limited control, blocking desktop builds (#233).
Changes include:
- Introduce Vite with Vue 2.0 plugin for test execution.
- Remove `mocha`, `chai` and other related dependencies.
- Adjust test to Vitest syntax.
- Revise and update `tests.md` to document the changes.
- Add `@modyfi/vite-plugin-yaml` plugin to be able to use yaml file
depended logic on test files, replacing previous webpack behavior.
- Fix failing tests that are revealed by Vitest due to unhandled errors
and lack of assertments.
- Remove the test that depends on Vue CLI populating `process.env`.
- Use `jsdom` for unit test environment, adding it to dependency to
`package.json` as project now depends on it and it was not specified
even though `package-lock.json` included it.
- Simplify alternatives to run the script.
- Change style of code parts to be easier to the eye:
- Use the same font size as other texts in body.
- Add vertical padding.
- Align the contents (the code, copy button and dollar sign) in the
middle.
- Align information icon to center of context next to it.
- Fix minor typos and punctations.
- Refactor instruction list to be more generic to able to be used by
other operating systems.
- Make dialogs scrollable so instruction list on smaller screens can be
read until the end.
