2020-09-28ProtocolServer+LibWeb: Support more detailed HTTP requestsAndreas Kling
This patch adds the ability for ProtocolServer clients to specify which HTTP method to use, and also to include an optional HTTP request body.
2020-09-15LibCore: Make Core::Object properties more dynamicAndreas Kling
Instead of everyone overriding save_to() and set_property() and doing a pretty asymmetric job of implementing the various properties, let's add a bit of structure here. Object properties are now represented by a Core::Property. Properties are registered with a getter and setter (optional) in constructors. I've added some convenience macros for creating and registering properties, but this does still feel a bit bulky. We'll have to iterate on this and see where it goes.
2020-06-02LibWeb: Share decoded images at the Resource level :^)Andreas Kling
This patch adds ImageResource as a subclass of Resource. This new class also keeps a Gfx::ImageDecoder so that we can share decoded bitmaps between all clients of an image resource inside LibWeb. With this, we now share both encoded and decoded data for images. :^) I had to change how the purgeable-volatile flag is updated to keep the volatile-images-outside-the-visible-viewport optimization working. HTMLImageElement now inherits from ImageResourceClient (a subclass of ResourceClient with additional image-specific stuff) and informs its ImageResource about whether it's inside the viewport or outside. This is pretty awesome! :^)
2020-06-01LibWeb: Add a naive Resource cacheAndreas Kling
This patch introduces a caching mechanism in ResourceLoader. It's keyed on a LoadRequest object which is what you provide to load_resource() when you want to load a resource. We currently never prune the cache, so resources will stay in there forever. This is obviously not gonna stay that way, but we're just getting started here. :^) This should drastically reduce the number of requests when loading some sites (like Twitter) that reuse the same images over and over.
2020-06-01LibWeb: Start building a new Resource class to share more resourcesAndreas Kling
A Resource represents a resource that we're loading, have loaded or will soon load. Basically, it's a downloadable resource that can be shared by multiple clients. A typical usecase is multiple <img> elements with the same src. In a future patch, we will try to make sure that those <img> elements get the same Resource if possible. This will reduce network usage, memory usage, and CPU usage. :^) For now, this first patch simply introduces the mechanism. You get a Resource by calling ResourceLoader::load_resource(). To get notified about changes to a Resource's load status, you inherit from ResourceClient and implement the callbacks you're interested in. This patch turns HTMLImageElement into a ResourceClient.
