There are now two separate settings related to Invidious instances:
- currentInvidiousInstance
- defaultInvidiousInstance
'currentInvidiousInstance' is a value that exists solely in memory
and it's the value used by the app to make the API calls,
while 'defaultInvidiousInstance' is the value that can be persisted
in the database by user action and will be used to initiate
the 'currentInvidiousInstance' on startup.
If the user has not saved a default value to the database,
'currentInvidiousInstance' is randomized from
a fetched list of viable candidates.
This commit renames the 'syncSettings' IRC channels to 'syncWindows' and
changes the renderer's listener setup for this channel more generic
so that it can cover other store modules besides the settings' module.
Most actions in the history module would grab the history from disk
every time the history was updated and updated the cache this way.
This commit makes these actions perform these modifications in memory
instead of unnecessarily reaching into the disk.
This commit moves the locale relevant code to the settings' store module
and incorporates it with its current architecture.
I should clarify that this makes the value present in the `localStorage`
nonmeaningful, as that value is no longer being used in any way.
The 'nedb' package is unmaintained (last update was 5 years ago) and
has a couple of high severity vulnerabilities.
In addition, the use of callbacks is somewhat cumbersome for
the project's current workflow.
Therefore, I've decided to replace it with the 'nedb-promises' package,
which, internally, makes use of a maintained fork of 'nedb' and
wraps its API with Promises.
The 'markdown' package is unmaintained (last update was 8 years ago)
and has a low severity vulnerability, so it makes sense to replace it
with 'marked', which is actively maintained and very small in size.
Smooth scrolling toggling is currently wonky on runtime, since,
most of the time, it doesn't toggle on and off properly.
In addition, now that we have multi-window support,
the current implementation was somewhat lacking.
This commit solves those issues by replacing
the existing smooth scrolling related channels with a
new generic `relaunchRequest` channel.
This should fix an issue where, when closing the app, an error window
would very occasionally pop up declaring that 'getNormalBounds'
was called on an undefined variable.

When syncing a setting between windows, if that setting has any
side effects, a trigger is fired in all other windows to perform
those side effects in their own environment.
Previously, a custom Map was provided to the function in order to
determine whether or not a setting contained side effects that needed
to be handled.
That Map has now been deleted and the function has been modified
to make use of the module's new architecture.
Previously, the settings' module was not properly equipped to handle
setting updates that featured certain side effects and no way to
propagate those side effects to other windows.
This redesign is a direct answer to those needs, in preparation to
move these settings and related logic to the aproppriate structures,
which will be done over the course of several commits.
A more in-depth documentation of the current redesign can be found at
the top of the settings module file.
The app utilizes the Electron IPC to communicate settings' updates
to the other existing windows.
This is still at a fairly rudimentary stage, since some settings are
not syncing at all, while other settings have related side effects that
are not currently being propagated to the remaining windows.
An example of this would be the 'uiScale' setting, in which
the value is properly synced, but the app's actual scaling isn't.
This fixes a bug related to the presentation of the `defaultVolume`
value in its respective label in the Settings view.
Since the value stored in the database and in the in-memory store
is a decimal number, it is subject to floating point arithmetic related
limitations.
Example (processed by the V8 engine):
0.28 * 100 = 28.000000000000004
This function made use of a switch statement that was hundred of
lines in height and a majority of cases had similar logic.
This commit generalizes the logic of the majority of the cases into
a condensed for loop, which additionally handles the few existing
oddball cases in an easy-to-understand manner.
The 'grabUserSettings' action calls the 'updateInvidiousInstance'
action whenever the database returns an empty value for this setting.
However, that scenario should never happen in the first place.
In addition, a default value is already provided directly in the state.
The settings' store module has had a lot of duplicated logic for
the majority of its getters, mutations and actions.
This commit serves to remedy that duplication substantially
by auto generating all getters, mutations and the majority
of actions, using a predictable pattern.
* * Update Youtube URL handling to recongnize playlist ID in URL
Only for format of `https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vid&list=lid`
* ! Fix vue component prop declaration
A prop where the value can be undefined cannot be declared "required"
* Added toggle component to settings
* Setting to toggle this feature is now functional. Video volume can now be changed by scrolling anywhere on the video, or just on the slider, depending on this setting
* Added translation lines for en_US and en_GB
* Changed setting line from 'Scroll Volume Over Video' to 'Scroll Volume Over Video Player'
* Changed 'mousewheel' to 'wheel' event, as 'mousewheel' is deprecated
* Ran lint check in settings.js
Co-authored-by: Alex Stewart <albinexotech@gmail.com>
* ! Fix app unable to load due to missing `getLocale` in `mapActions`
* $ Update a function's name with incorrect name casing
* Update "open youtube link" button to open with playlist when playing a video with an active playlist
The `remote` module is deprecated and `@electron/remote` is unnecessary,
since the `ipcMain` and `ipcRenderer` can replace their functionality,
providing better performance and better security.
All other dangerous calls (mainly pulling main process constructs into
the renderer process) have also been removed.
Closes: #1299
Previously, the app would notified the user (with a toast) of a
sponsor segment skip repeatedly if the segment lasted
until the end of a video.
This commit fixes that behavior so that it's displayed only once.
Closes: #1268
Having 'system' locale set would wrongfully send the wrong
locale information to YouTube, which would result in the captions
not being set properly. This commit fixes that behavior.
Closes: #1205
* Added "Follow System" option to
`Settings -> General Settings -> Locale Preference`
and set it to default
* Changed double quotes to single quotes
* Removed unnecessary comment
* Changed `app` accessing method
* Cleaned up if/else statements
* Checks similar locales as fallback
* Changed label to "System Language"
* Changed locale filtering logic to use the filter() method
The interval to play the next video in a playlist was dynamic and
wasn't applied to the normal autoplay timer.
This commit merges the logic of these two scenarios so that they both
utilize the user-defined interval.
* $ Extract function which extract details from a Youtube URL
* * Update top nav handling to use extract function to handle input text if it's Youtube URL
* - Remove no longer used function
* Handle /user channel URL type
* Fix minor problems with the regexps
* Display informational toasts for hashtag and unknown URL types
* Add toast messages to the default locale
Closes: #1207
The app was mistakenly only set up to handle video type urls from
the freetube:// protocol.
It should now be able to additionally handle playlist, search and
channel type as well.
