* fix: wider compat TS types and CI checks to ensure correct type defs
This PR improves our TS types further to make sure they are usable in a
TS environment where ES Modules are the target output. Our use of
`export =` is problematic this environment as TypeScript does not allow
`export =` to be used and it errors.
The fix for the type issues to avoid `export =` is to instead define the
functions that you gain access to when you import Puppeteer as top level
functions in our `types.d.ts` file. We can do this by declaring them
explicitly in `src/node.ts`. These are then rolled into `lib/types.d.ts`
at build time. The downside to this is that we have to keep those
declarations in sync with the Puppeteer API; should we add a new method
to the `Puppeteer` class, we must add it to the `nodes.ts` declarations.
However, this could easily be automated by a small script that walks the
AST and generates these. I will do that in a follow-up PR, but I
consider this low risk given how rarely the very top level API of
Puppeteer changes. The nice thing about this approach is we no longer
need our script that hacks on changes to `lib/types.d.ts`.
To avoid yet more releases to fix issues in one particular TS
environment, this PR also includes a suite of example setups that we
test on each CI run. Each sample folder contains `good.ts`, which should
have no TS errors, and `bad.ts`, which should have some errors. The test
first packs Puppeteer into a tar, and then installs it from that tar
into each project. This should replicate how the published package
behaves when it is installed. We then check that we get no errors on
`good.ts`, and the expected errors on `bad.ts`.
We have a variety of test projects that cover both TS and JS source
code, and CJS and ESM imports and outputs.
The `Puppeteer` class had two concerns:
* connect to an existing browser
* launch a new browser
The first of those concerns is needed in all environments, but the
second is only needed in Node.
https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/pull/6484 landing enabled us to
pull the `Puppeteer` class apart into two:
1. `Puppeteer` which hosts the behaviour for connecting to existing
browsers.
2. `PuppeteerNode`, which extends `Puppeteer` and also adds the ability
to launch a new browser.
This is a non-breaking change, because Node users will still get an
instance of a class with all the methods they expect, but it'll be a
`PuppeteerNode` rather than `Puppeteer`. I don't expect this to cause
people any issues.
We also now have new files that are effectively the entry points for
Puppeteer:
* `node.ts`: the main entry point for Puppeteer on Node.
* `web.ts`: the main entry point for Puppeteer on the web.
* `node-puppeteer-core.ts`: for those using puppeteer-core (which only
exists in Node, not on the web).
The `Launcher` class was serving two purposes:
1. Launch browsers
2. Connect to browsers
Number 1) only needs to be done in Node land, but 2) is agnostic; in a
browser version of Puppeteer we'll need the ability to connect over a
websocket to send commands back and forth.
As part of the agnostification work we needed to split the `Launcher` up
so that the connection part can be made agnostic. Additionally, I
removed dependencies on `https`, `http` and `URL` from Node, instead
leaning on fetch (via `node-fetch` if in Node land) and the browser
`URL` API (which was added to Node in Node 10).
Also took the opportunity to pull out the PDF types into their own file
to clear up `Page.ts` slightly and give the PDF code a more natural
place to live.
* chore: enforce file extensions on imports
To make our output agnostic it should include file extensions in the
output, as per the ESM spec. It's a bit odd for Node packages but makes
it easier to publish a browser build.
I noticed that DOMWorld was spitting a lot of warnings out when we
generated the docs. It was mostly easy tidy-ups and removing old JSDoc
comments and now the warnings are gone :)
* chore(docs): reduce warnings when generating docs
This is a bunch of small miscellaneous fixes that reduce the amount of
warnings logged when generating our new docs. The long term goal is to
get this list down to 0 warnings, but I'll do it in multiple PRs.
* satisfy doclint
* feat(types): improve typing of `.evaluate()`
This is the start of the work to take the types from the
`@types/puppeteer` repository and port them into our repo so we can ship
our built-in types out the box.
This change types the `evaluate` function properly. It takes a generic
type which is the type of the function you're passing, and the arguments
and the return that you get back from the `evaluate` call are typed
correctly.
These files will be used by both the web and node versions of Puppeteer.
Another name for this might be "core" but I don't want to cause
confusion with the puppeteer-core package that we publish at the moment.
This is another step towards making Puppeteer agnostic of environment
and being able to run in Node or a browser.
The files in the `node` directory are ones that would only be needed in
the Node build - e.g. the code that downloads and launches a local
browser instance.
The long term vision here is to have three folders:
* node - Node only code
* web - Web only code
* common - code that is shared
But rather than do that in one PR I'm going to split it up to make it
easier to review and deal with.
