Key highlights:
- Written from scratch to cater specifically to privacy.sexy's
needs and requirements.
- The visual look mimics the previous component with minimal changes,
but its internal code is completely rewritten.
- Lays groundwork for future functionalities like the "expand all"
button a flat view mode as discussed in #158.
- Facilitates the transition to Vue 3 by omitting the Vue 2.0 dependent
`liquour-tree` as part of #230.
Improvements and features:
- Caching for quicker node queries.
- Gradual rendering of nodes that introduces a noticable boost in
performance, particularly during search/filtering.
- `TreeView` solely governs the check states of branch nodes.
Changes:
- Keyboard interactions now alter the background color to highlight the
focused item. Previously, it was changing the color of the text.
- Better state management with clear separation of concerns:
- `TreeView` exclusively manages indeterminate states.
- `TreeView` solely governs the check states of branch nodes.
- Introduce transaction pattern to update state in batches to minimize
amount of events handled.
- Improve keyboard focus, style background instead of foreground. Use
hover/touch color on keyboard focus.
- `SelectableTree` has been removed. Instead, `TreeView` is now directly
integrated with `ScriptsTree`.
- `ScriptsTree` has been refactored to incorporate hooks for clearer
code and separation of duties.
- Adopt Vue-idiomatic bindings instead of keeping a reference of the
tree component.
- Simplify and change filter event management.
- Abandon global styles in favor of class-scoped styles.
- Use global mixins with descriptive names to clarify indended
functionality.
This commit simplifies event handling, providing a unified and robust
way to handle event lifecycling. This way, it fixes events not being
unsubscribed when state is changed.
Introduce a new function in `EventSubscriptionCollection` to remove
existing events and adding new events. This provides an easier to use
API, which leads to code that's easier to understand. It also prevents
potential bugs that may occur due to forgetting to call both functions.
It fixes `TheScriptsMenu` not unregistering events on state change.
Other improvements include:
- Include a getter to get total amount of registered subcriptions.
This helps in unit testing.
- Have nullish checks to prevent potential errors further down the
execution.
- Use array instead of rest parameters to increase readability and
simplify tests.
Ensure `SliderHandler` stops resizes on unmount, unsubscribing from all
events and resetting state to default.
Update `injectionKeys` to do imports as types to avoid circular
dependencies. Simplify importing `injectionKeys` to enable and strict
typings for iterating injection keys.
Add tests covering new behavior.
Test improvements:
- Capture titles for all macOS windows, not just the frontmost.
- Incorporate missing application log files.
- Improve log clarity with enriched context.
- Improve application termination on macOS by reducing grace period.
- Ensure complete application termination on macOS.
- Validate Vue application loading through an initial log.
- Support ignoring environment-specific `stderr` errors.
- Do not fail the test if working directory cannot be deleted.
- Use retry pattern when installing dependencies due to network errors.
Refactorings:
- Migrate the test code to TypeScript.
- Replace deprecated `rmdir` with `rm` for error-resistant directory
removal.
- Improve sanity checking by shifting from App.vue to Vue bootstrapper.
- Centralize environment variable management with `EnvironmentVariables`
construct.
- Rename infrastructure/Environment to RuntimeEnvironment for clarity.
- Isolate WindowVariables and SystemOperations from RuntimeEnvironment.
- Inject logging via preloader.
- Correct mislabeled RuntimeSanity tests.
Configuration:
- Introduce `npm run check:desktop` for simplified execution.
- Omit `console.log` override due to `nodeIntegration` restrictions and
reveal logging functionality using context-bridging.
Manage Firefox preferences through `user.js` instead of `prefs.js`.
Because of Mozilla's recommendation against direct `prefs.js` edits to
avoid potential profile corruption. Instead, the `user.js` file, if
present, overrides the settings in `prefs.js` at application startup.
Change AddFirefoxPrefs function to update `user.js` and manage
creation/deletion of this file:
1. Handle file creation if `user.js` does not exist.
2. Deletes file if `user.js` becomes empty after reverting settings.
Other changes:
- Improve log messages
- Minimal refactorings
Enable `contextIsolation` in Electron to securely expose a limited set
of Node.js APIs to the renderer process. It:
1. Isolates renderer and main process contexts. It ensures that the
powerful main process functions aren't directly accessible from
renderer process(es), adding a security boundary.
2. Mitigates remote exploitation risks. By isolating contexts, potential
malicious code injections in the renderer can't directly reach and
compromise the main process.
3. Reduces attack surface.
4. Protect against prototype pollution: It prevents tampering of
JavaScript object prototypes in one context from affecting another
context, improving app reliability and security.
Supporting changes include:
- Extract environment and system operations classes to the infrastructure
layer. This removes node dependencies from core domain and application
code.
- Introduce `ISystemOperations` to encapsulate OS interactions. Use it
from `CodeRunner` to isolate node API usage.
- Add a preloader script to inject validated environment variables into
renderer context. This keeps Electron integration details
encapsulated.
- Add new sanity check to fail fast on issues with preloader injected
variables.
- Improve test coverage of runtime sanity checks and environment
components. Move validation logic into separate classes for Single
Responsibility.
- Improve absent value test case generation.
- Fix a bug (introduced in 1b9be8fe) preventing the tree view from being
visible during a search.
- Fix a minor bug where the scripts view does not render based on the
initial filter.
- Add Vue component tests for `TheScriptView` to prevent regressions.
- Refactor `isSearching` in `TheScriptView` to simplify its logic.
- Switch from deprecated Vue CLI plugin to `electron-vite` (see
nklayman/vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder#1982)
- Update main/preload scripts to use `index.cjs` filenames to support
`"type": "module"`, resolving crash issue (#233). This crash was
related to Electron not supporting ESM (see electron/asar#249,
electron/electron#21457).
- This commit completes migration to Vite from Vue CLI (#230).
Structure changes:
- Introduce separate folders for Electron's main and preload processes.
- Move TypeHelpers to `src/` to mark tit as accessible by the rest of
the code.
Config changes:
- Make `vite.config.ts` reusable by Electron configuration.
- On electron-builder, use `--publish` flag instead of `-p` for clarity.
Tests:
- Add log for preload script loading verification.
- Implement runtime environment sanity checks.
- Enhance logging in `check-desktop-runtime-errors`.
This commit changes the web application's build, transpilation and
minification process from Vue CLI to Vite. This shift paves the way for
a full migration to Vite as the primary build tool (#230).
Configuration changes:
- `.vscode/extensions.json`: Update recommended plugins, replacing
unmaintained ones with official recommendations.
- Legacy browser support:
- Use `@vitejs/plugin-legacy` to transpile for older browsers.
- Remove `core-js` dependency and `babel.config.cjs` configuration as
they're now handled by the legacy plugin.
- Delete `@babel/preset-typescript` and `@babel/preset-typescript`
dependencies as legacy plugin handles babel dependencies by default.
- Add `terser` dependency that's used by the legacy plugin for
minification, as per Vite's official documentation.
- `tsconfig.json`:
- Remove obsolete `webpack-env` types.
- Add `"resolveJsonModule": true` to be able to read JSON files in
right way.
- Use correct casing as configuration values.
- Simplify `lib` to align with Vite and Vue starter configuration.
- Add `"skipLibCheck": true` as `npm run build` now runs `tsc` which
fails on inconsistent typings inside `node_modules` due to npm's
weak dependency resoultion.
- PostCSS:
- Add `autoprefixer` as dependency, no longer installed by Vue CLI.
- Epxlicitly added `postcss` as dependency to anticipate potential
peer dependency changes.
- Remove related `@vue/cli` dependencies.
- Remove `sass-loader` as Vite has native CSS preprocessing support.
- Run integration tests with `jsdom` environment so `window` object can
be used.
Client-side changes:
- Abstract build tool specific environment variable population.
Environment variables were previously populated by Vue CLI and now by
Vite but not having an abstraction caused issues. This abstraction
solves build errors and allows easier future migrations and testing.
- Change Vue CLI-specific `~@` aliases to `@` to be able to compile with
Vite.
- Update types in LiquorTree to satisfy `tsc`.
- Remove Vue CLI-specific workaround from `src/presentation/main.ts`.
Restructuring:
- Move `public/` to `presentation/` to align with the layered structure,
which was not possible with Vue CLI.
- Move `index.html` to web root instead of having it inside `public/` to
align with official recommended structure.
- Move logic shared by both integration and unit tests to
`tests/shared`.
- Move logo creation script to `scripts/` and its npm command to include
`build` to align with rest of the structure.
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.
- Add automation script for building, packaging, installing, executing
and verifying Electron distrubtions across macOS, Ubuntu and Windows.
- Add GitHub workflow to run the script to test distributions using the
script.
- Update README with new workflow status badge.
- Add application initialization log to desktop applications to be able
to test against crashes before application initialization.
Refactor filter event handling to a unified event with visitor pattern
to simplify the code, avoid future bugs and provide better test
coverage.
This commit shifts from using separate `filtered` and `filterRemoved`
events to a singular, more expressive `filterChanged` event. The new
approach emits a detailed payload that explicitly indicates the filter
action and the associated filter data. The event object unifies the way
the presentation layer reacts to the events.
Benefits with this approach include:
- Simplifying event listeners by reducing the number of events to
handle.
- Increasing code clarity and reduces potential for oversight by
providing explicit action details in the event payload.
- Offering extensibility for future actions without introducing new
events.
- Providing visitor pattern to handle different kind of events in easy
and robust manner without code repetition.
Other changes:
- Refactor components handling of events to follow DRY and KISS
principles better.
- Refactor `UserFilter.spec.ts` to:
- Make it easier to add new tests.
- Increase code coverage by running all event-based tests on the
current property.
- Remove existing integration tests for hooks as they're redundant after
this change.
- Document the pattern in relevant documentation.
- Introduce `useEnvironment` to increase testability.
- Update components to inject dependencies rather than importing hooks
directly.
This commits fixes an issue where the `REVERT` label on revert toggle
might render as `REVER` or in a similarly clipped manner due to its
fixed width. The problem is visible when certain fonts fail to load or
browser engines render content non-standardly.
Changes:
- Refactor UI component to have its own separate Vue component with unit
tests.
- Rework component design to utilize flexbox, enhancing its adaptability
and simplifying the structure.
- Remove obselete `webkit` directives.
- Refactor SCSS for clearer structure and better SCSS best-practices.
- Use `em` when possible instead of `px` for improved responsiveness.
This commit introduces a new Vue component to handle tooltips. It acts
as a wrapper for the `v-tooltip`. It enhances the maintainability,
readability and portability of tooltips by enabling the direct inclusion
of inline HTML in the tooltip components. It solves issues such as
absence of linting or editor support and cumbersome string
concatenation.
It also provides an abstraction layer that simplifies the switching
between different tooltip implementations, which would allow a smooth
migration to Vue 3 (see #230).
Introduce a brand new lightweight and efficient modal component. It is
designed to be visually similar to the previous one to not introduce a
change in feel of the application in a patch release, but behind the
scenes it features:
- Enhanced application speed and reduced bundle size.
- New flexbox-driven layout, eliminating JS calculations.
- Composition API ready for Vue 3.0 #230.
Other changes:
- Adopt idiomatic Vue via `v-modal` binding.
- Add unit tests for both the modal and dialog.
- Remove `vue-js-modal` dependency in favor of the new implementation.
- Adjust modal shadow color to better match theme.
- Add `@vue/test-utils` for unit testing.
Unit and integration tests have been failing due to failed logging of
`Error` objects. These were creating an issue where `mocha` was not
properly returning right exit codes, leading to test pipelines
incorrectly passing despite test failures.
- Fix runtime behavior of failing to retrieve error stacks.
- Add tests for error handling.
- Add more robust custom error handling.
Related issues: babel/babel#14273, vuejs/vue-cli#6994.
Reliably disable Defender services (by always using `reg` with
TrustedInstaller`), and put Firewall services in Windows Firewall

- Migrate `StatefulVue`:
- Introduce `UseCollectionState` that replaces its behavior and acts
as a shared state store.
- Add more encapsulated, granular functions based on read or write
access to state in CollectionState.
- Some linting rules get activates due to new code-base compability to
modern parses, fix linting errors.
- Rename Dialog to ModalDialog as after refactoring,
eslintvue/no-reserved-component-names does not allow name Dialog.
- To comply with `vue/multi-word-component-names`, rename:
- `Code` -> `CodeInstruction`
- `Handle` -> `SliderHandle`
- `Documentable` -> `DocumentableNode`
- `Node` -> `NodeContent`
- `INode` -> `INodeContent`
- `Responsive` -> `SizeObserver`
- Remove `vue-property-decorator` and `vue-class-component`
dependencies.
- Refactor `watch` with computed properties when possible for cleaner
code.
- Introduce `UseApplication` to reduce repeated code in new components
that use `computed` more heavily than before.
- Change TypeScript target to `es2017` to allow top level async calls
for getting application context/state/instance to simplify the code by
removing async calls. However, mocha (unit and integration) tests do
not run with top level awaits, so a workaround is used.
All outbound links now include `rel="noopener noreferrer"` attribute.
This security improvement prevents the new page from being able to
access the `window.opener` property and ensures it runs in a separate
process.
`rel="noopener"`:
When a new page is opened using `target="_blank"`, the new page runs
on the same process as the originating page, and has a reference to
the originating page `window.opener`. By implementing
`rel="noopener"`, the new page is prevented to use `window.opener`
property.
It's security issue because the newly opened website could
potentially redirect the page to a malicious URL. Even though
privacy.sexy doesn't have any sensitive information to protect, this
can still be a vector for phishing attacks.
`rel="noreferrer"`:
It implies features of `noopener`, and also prevents `Referer` header
from being sent to the new page. Referer headers may include
sensitive data, because they tell the new page the URL of the page
the request is coming from.

- Change spec extensions from `*.spec.js` to `*.cy.js`.
- Change configuration file from `cypress.json` to
`cypress.config.ts`.
- Remove most configurations from `cypress/plugins/index.js`. These
configurations were initially generated by Vue CLI but obsoleted in
newer cypress versions.

unmaintained Vue CLI TypeScript plugin (see vuejs/vue-cli#7401).
- Use `setWindowOpenHandler` on Electron, replacing deprecated
`new-event` event.
- Document inability to upgrade `typescript-eslint` dependencies because
`@vue/eslint-config-typescript` does not support them. See

- Update `vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder` to latest alpha version. This
allows upgrading `ts-loader` to latest and using latest
`electron-builder`. Change `main` property value in `package.json` to
`index.js` for successful electron builds (see
nklayman/vue-cli-plugin-electron-builder#188).
Key features of Linux support:
- It supports python 3 scripts execution.
- It supports Flatpak and Snap installation for software
clean-up/configurations.
- Extensive documentation.
Rework code validation to be bound to a context and not
context-independent. It means that the generated code is validated based
on different phases during the compilation. This is done by moving
validation from `ScriptCode` constructor to a different callable
function.
It removes duplicate detection for function calls once a call is fully
compiled, but still checks for duplicates inside each function body that
has inline code. This allows for having duplicates in final scripts
(thus relaxing the duplicate detection), e.g., when multiple calls to
the same function is made.
It fixes non-duplicates (when using common syntax) being misrepresented
as duplicate lines.
It improves the output of errors, such as printing valid lines, to give
more context. This improvement also fixes empty line validation not
showing the right empty lines in the error output. Empty line validation
shows tabs and whitespaces more clearly.
Finally, it adds more tests including tests for existing logic, such as
singleton factories.
Add support for expressions inside expressions.
Add support for templating where the output of one expression results in
another template part with expressions.
E.g., this did not work before, but compilation will now evaluate both
with expression with `$condition` and parameter substitution with
`$text`:
```
{{ with $condition }}
echo '{{ $text }}'
{{ end }}
```
Add also more sanity checks (validation logic) when compiling
expressions to reveal problems quickly.
Improve templating support for block rendering for `with` expression
that has multiline code. This improves templating support to render
multiline code conditionally.
This did not work before but works now:
```
{{ with $middleLine }}
first line
second line
{{ end }}
```
- 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.
Remove uppercase text transformation from node titles (script and
categories) and "no results found" text when searching. It increases the
readability giving it a clean look.
- Improve documentation for OneDrive removal scripts.
- Add support for deleting OneDrive icon from the navigation pane.
- Do not revert OneDrive install code on Windows 11 as it does not exist
by default.
- Remove "Prevent automatic OneDrive install for new users" script as
HKU scripts are not really supported elsewhere and makes the code
harder to maintain.
- Do not print errors when the behavior is as expected. Surpress errors
on registry key deletion, ensure re-running script does not cause any
errors with proper checks.
- Change revert logic to match default Windows state.
- Hardcode service names for OneDrive to avoid side-effects.
- Rerruning OneDrive now runs it in background.
- Add Windows 11 support for running the installer/uninstaller.
- Rename scripts to simpler and easier-to-understand names
Improve documentation for Visual Studio scripts.
Add different keys reported by community for deleting Visual Studio 2022
licenses, see beatcracker/VSCELicense#14 for the key reports.
Add cleanup for SQM files that Visual Studio generates when it is unable
to connect to internet, to send the data when online. Improve cleanup
for Visual Studio logs.
Change revert behavior of the scripts to match default state of clean
Visual Studio installation.
Rework documentation URLs as inline markdown.
Redesign documentations with markdown text.
Redesign way to document scripts/categories and present the
documentation.
Documentation is showed in an expandable box instead of tooltip. This is
to allow writing longer documentation (tooltips are meant to be used for
short text) and have better experience on mobile.
If a node (script/category) has documentation it's now shown with single
information icon (ℹ) aligned to right.
Add support for rendering documentation as markdown. It automatically
converts plain URLs to URLs with display names (e.g.
https://docs.microsoft.com/..) will be rendered automatically like
"docs.microsoft.com - Windows 11 Privacy...".
Disable selecting clickables as text. Selecting buttons leads to
unintended selection. This is seen when touching on clickables using
mobile devices.
Prevent blue highlight when touching on clickables. This is seen on
mobile webkit browsers. It looks ugly and the visual clue provided is
not needed beacuse all clickables on mobile already have visual clues.
This commit improves mobile support. `:hover` CSS selector is not mobile
friendly because there is typically no mouse support on mobile. This
commit make hover behavior to become active during touch on mobile.
`:hover` selector is emulated on mobile devices. But this emulated
behavior is not desired. When emulated, the CSS style gets attached when
starting touching but does not get removed after stopping touching. This
sticky behavior is undesired.
This commit solve this issue by using Saas mixing that uses `:active`
selector instead of `:hover` when `:hover` is not really supported but
emulated.
- Use better error messages with more context.
- Unify their validation logic and share tests.
- Validate also type of the name.
- Refactor node (Script/Category) parser tests for easier future
changes and cleaner test code (using `TestBuilder` to do dirty work in
unified way).
- Add more tests. Custom `Error` properties are compared manually due to
`chai` not supporting deep equality checks (chaijs/chai#1065,
chaijs/chai#1405).
The logic was expecting major version in Windows 11 to be 11. However,
in Windows 11, major version is not changed and it is till 10. This
commit corrects logic to check build number that's guaranteed to be
higher in Windows 11.
