Leaflet platform for LibreOffice On-Line
========================================
This is the client part of LibreOffice On-Line. For the server part, see the
../loolwsd/README, and install it first.
Build dependencies
------------------
First you need to install 'jake'. As root, do:
npm install -g jake
npm install
npm is provided by the nodejs package.
Alternatively, you can use the provided zip (as a normal user):
unzip node_modules/modules.zip -d node_modules
A third way is to use npm as a user, but set its prefix to a directory where
you have write access. If you want that, you need to have an ~/.npmrc with the
line e.g.
prefix=/opt/npm
Building
--------
As a normal user:
jake build
cd plugins/draw-0.2.4
jake build
Running
-------
To see an example:
* run loolwsd, like:
./loolwsd --systemplate=${SYSTEMPLATE} --lotemplate=${MASTER}/instdir --childroot=${ROOTFORJAILS}
Note that this will, by default, set the loolwsd's file server's root to the parent directory of loolwsd,
which means you can access all the files in loleaflet using /loleaflet/ path. It is advised to set
fileserverroot manually for more control. See loolwsd/README for more information.
* open debug/document/document_simple_example.html or dist/loleaflet.html through loolwsd's fileserver
https://localhost:9980/loleaflet/dist/loleaflet.html?file_path=file:///PATH/TO_DOC&host=wss://localhost:9980
and you should see the document in the browser.
Note that file_path parameter is disabled by default for security reasons. You need to explicitly enable it
with the --allowlocalstorage option of loolwsd. In case anything goes wrong, check the loolwsd console for
the debugging output. You might be asked to confirm the certificate if you are using self-signed certificate
for loolwsd.
Admin Panel
-----------
You can do live monitoring of all the user sessions running on loolwsd instance. To access the admin
console you need to ask for admin.html file from loolwsd which resides in dist/admin/admin.html.
For example:
https://localhost:9980/loleaflet/dist/admin/admin.html
It will ask for username and password which is set by the --admincreds option of loolwsd. For example you can
pass --admincreds=admin/admin which will make username and password 'admin', 'admin' respectively. After entering
the correct password you should be able to monitor the live documents opened, total users, memory consumption,
document URLs with number of users viewing that document etc. You can also kill the documents directly from
the panel which would result in closing the socket connection to the respective document.
Testing
-------
- to run the unit tests
+ open spec/loleaflet.html in the browser
- to simulate an editing session and to get the tile loading times
+ open spec/tilebench.html in the browser
- to simulate a client opening several documents in the browser
+ open spec/loadtest.html in the browser
- to simulate a client opening several documents in the console
+ run: node_modules/.bin/mocha spec/headlessLoadTest.js
- to simulate multiple clients opening several documents in the console
+ run: make load-test
The structure of the unit tests:
Loleaflet unit tets are located under spec/loleaflet. Following Leaflet's testing style, each test's path
should mirror the source's path, so spec/loleaflet/control/ToolbarSpec.js tests the features from
src/control/Toolbar.js . Any new test file needs also to be added in spec/leaflet.html

Implementation details
----------------------
Loading a document:
The map should have the following options:
- server address
- doc - path to the document that will be loaded
- edit = the initial permission
- readOnly - whether the document is read only
- [timestamp] - optionally provided for remote documents
How zooming works:
The zoom level goes from 1 to 20 (those limits can be changed) and the initial
level is 10, which represents the 100% zoom level. The zoom factor is 1.2
Controls are added above the map in a div called "controls" is intended to be used as a toolbar.
There is no leaflet method of adding them in a separate div, so for now this is done in the html
document after the map initialization.
To enable scrollbars the map is placed above a div that contains a bigger div of
the document's size (a mock document). So the div under the map gets scrollbars which
are independent of the map's div, thus enabling us to link them to the map as needed.
When the user scrolls, the map is panned by the same amount as it would've been scrolled.
Also, some custom jquery scrollbars are used, to trigger the same scroll events across
browsers.
