Rob Wu	cdadb0db4d	Proof of concept using chrome.streamsPrivate API This method captures all application/pdf streams, loads the viewer and passes the stream to the PDF.js viewer. This commit shows a proof of concept using the chrome.streamsPrivate API. Advantages of new method: - Access to the response body of the original request, thus fewer network requests. - PDFs from non-GET requests (e.g. POST) are now supported. - FTP files are also supported. Possible improvements: - Use declared content scripts instead of dynamic chrome.tabs.executeScript. This allows the extension to render the viewer in frames when the extension is disallowed to run executeScript for the top URL. - Use chrome.declarativeWebRequest instead of webRequest, and replace background page with event page (don't forget to profile the difference & will the background/event page still work as intended?).	11 years ago
Rob Wu	83b780af81	[CRX] Show nicely formatted URL in omnibox Before commit: chrome-extension://EXTENSIONID/content/web/viewer.html?file=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Ffile.pdf After commit: chrome-extension://EXTENSIONID/http://example/file.pdf Technical details: - The extension's background page uses the webRequest API to intercept requests for <extension host>/<real path to pdf>, and redirect it to the viewer's URL. - viewer.js uses history.replaceState to rewrite the URL, so that it's easier for users to recognize and copy-paste URLs. - The fake paths /http:, /https:, /file:, etc. have been added to the web_accessible_resources section of the manifest file, in order to avoid seeing chrome-extension://invalid/ instead of the actual URL when using history back/forward to navigate from/to the PDF viewer. - Since the relative path resolving doesn't work because relative URLs are inaccurate, a <base> tag has been added. This method has already been proven to work in the Firefox add-on. Notes: - This commit has been cherry-picked from crx-using-streams-api. - Need to merge https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/3582 to deal with a bug in Chrome <=30 - In Chrome, getting the contents of a FTP file is not possible, so there's no support for FTP files, even though the extension router recognizes the ftp: scheme.	12 years ago
Rob Wu	e9cb91de39	[CRX] split:incognito is used, so update file:-handler The current stable Chromium version is 29. Since the critical bug that prevented use of incognito:split has been fixed, and incognito:split is actually used, it's safe to drop the code that disables the extension in incognito mode.

Rob Wu	edd4bae903	[CRX] Change Viewer insertion method And use split incognito mode Previous method: - Rewrite content type to XHTML, followed by a content script to cancel and replace the document with the viewer. ( https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/3017 ) New method: - Cancel loading of the document, followed by a redirect to the viewer Disadvantage of new method: - URLs are no longer "nice". This will be addressed by cherry-picking a commit from the crx-using-streams-api branch. Advantages of new method: - Idle time is minimal. In some cases (with large documents), it took too much time before the content script was activated. During this period, the page looked blank, and the contents of the PDF file were still retrieved and discarded. With the new method, the idle time is minimal, because the request is immediately cancelled. - No FOUXEP (Flash of unhidden XML error page), because the XHTML Content-Type hack is no longer used.	12 years ago

Rob Wu	e181a3c902	Highly improved Chrome extension Full list feature changes in this commit: - Support for iframes - Switched to content-type (MIME) detection instead of hard-coding a case-sensitive check for the .PDF extension - The PDF's original URL is visible in the omnibox - Support for incognito mode Note: PDF viewer is disabled for the file:// + incognito combination, because it's currently impossible to get the combination to work.
