Two checkboxes have been added to the "My filters "pane:
1. A checkbox to wholly disable/enable "My filters". This is equivalent
to the checkbox for "My filters" in "Filter lists" pane.
2. A checkbox to enable/disable the trustworthiness of the content
of "My filters". Default to untrusted.
Since toggling these checkboxes requires reloading all filter lists,
their new state must be committed through the "Apply changes" button.
Additionally: a "book" icon has been added to the top-right of the
dashboard, which is a link to the wiki according to whichever pane is
currently active.
- Group "Pick" and "Preview"
- Set minimal button width
- Auto-minimize when picking instead of fully hiding the dialog:
this allows to quit while in picking mode
This commit brings the following changes to the logger:
All logging output generated by injected scriptlets are now sent to
the logger, the developer console will no longer be used to log
scriptlet logging information.
When the logger is not opened, the scriplets will not output any
logging information.
The goal with this new approach is to allow filter authors to
more easily assess the working of scriptlets without having to
go through scriptlet parameters to enable logging.
Consequently all the previous ways to tell scriptlets to log
information are now obsolete: if the logger is opened, the
scriptlets will log information to the logger.
Another benefit of this approach is that the dev tools do not
need to be open to obtain scriptlets logging information.
Accordingly, new filter expressions have been added to the logger:
"info" and "error". Selecting the "scriptlet" expression will also
keep the logging information from scriptlets.
A new button has been added to the logger (not yet i18n-ed): a
"volume" icon, which allows to enable verbose mode. When verbose
mode is enabled, the scriptlets may choose to output more
information regarding their inner working.
The entries in the logger will automatically expand on mouse hover.
This allows to scroll through entries which text does not fit into
a single row.
Clicking anywhere on an entry in the logger will open the detailed
view when applicable.
Generic information/errors will now be rendered regardless of which
tab is currently selected in the logger (similar to how tabless
entries are already being rendered).
As per discussion with uBO volunteers.
Volunteers offering support for uBO will be able to craft links with
specially formed URLs, which once clicked will cause uBO to automatically
force an update of specified filter lists.
The URL must be crafted as shown in the example below:
https://ublockorigin.github.io/uAssets/update-lists.html?listkeys=ublock-filters,easylist
Where the `listkeys` parameter is a comma-separated list of tokens
corresponding to filter lists. If a token does not match an enabled
filter list, it will be ignored.
The ability to update filter lists through a specially crafted link
is available only on uBO's own support sites:
- https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/
- https://reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/
- https://ublockorigin.github.io/
Additionally, a visual cue has been added in the "Filter lists" pane
to easily spot the filter lists which have been recently updated, where
"recently" is currently defined as less than an hour ago.
As discussed internally with filter list maintainers.
Additionally, added a search field to filter out lists. This
is still a work in progress, no need to open issues about this,
I am aware of what is missing (i18n, more tags, etc.)
