dexc-desktop: Use macdrive for Darwin #2372

ukane-philemon · 2023-05-25T19:43:27Z

Builds on #2333.

I researched other options and MacDrive seem to be a reasonable option. It allows using supported native Mac APIs, which covers our use case.

I was able to implement some "native" macOS app behaviour and features; keeping the app running without windows, creating new windows, and having a dock icon menu.

I'm putting this up so we can have discussions around it and clarify what feature is missing (menu items etc)

EDIT: If we want to keep the New Window menu as @martonp mentioned here #2333 (comment), we'd have to allow more than one window on macOS.

Changes included in 638752b

Support for multiple windows (max: 5. this is not really a requirement just keeping things sane?)

Systray display.

martonp

Looking good.. personally I don't see any reason for multiple windows, but it's fine.

The scrollbar issue that was happening earlier is back again:

martonp · 2023-05-28T10:26:03Z

The top-left menu should have the same options as the dock icon menu:

The scrollbar issue that was happening earlier is back again:

When? I know some CSS styling is not supported on Webkit. Even some "default" styling in other browsers could also be missing.

EDIT: I'm unable to reproduce, tried building the CSS files again? :

scroll.mp4

EDIT 2: I notice the white bg on hover. @martonp what did you expect?

The top-left menu should have the same options as the dock icon menu:

Getting this to work as expected with native APIs was a PITA but it works.

As a bonus, I was able to get this working too (the nice check and window icon):

Rebased..

Seems OK now.. maybe it's an intermittent issue or I didn't build it properly. But the build script builds the UI every time..

ukane-philemon · 2023-06-03T15:23:16Z

But the build script builds the UI every time..

Yup, that was why I did this #2333 (comment) earlier since I'd have to build several times to test everything was fine when working on that PR.

Weird. I wonder what could be terminating dexc-desktop instance on your machine.

ukane-philemon · 2023-06-10T00:04:43Z

We never shut down on Mac?

If you mean automatically(i.e. after all windows have been closed and no active order), no. The user will have to shut down dexc-desktop on macOS using the Quit menu item or use Command+Q.

Working well. Almost ready, imo.

External links are not functional for me.

I'm glad, you were able to test this PR and it's running fine on your end. I will look into the issue with the links.

martonp · 2023-06-24T06:08:33Z

In the "Window" section of the top toolbar, there are options for tabs, i.e. "Show Tab Bar", "Show Previous Tab". Is it possible to get rid of those?

Yeah, it is possible. I looked into it over the weekend.

This looks A-OK to me. I'm unlikely to get a Mac to test anytime soon, so please decide when it's good to merge @buck54321 and pull the trigger when you like.

I am yet to push changes relating to the recent reviews but the major changes I'd like to add here are:

Getting external links to open in the user's default browser.
Enabling file uploads. (Figured out this wasn’t working while testing but has been a real PITA. I've implemented the required handlers/methods but still getting panics): Related documentations:
Doc 1, Doc 2 and Docs 3
Refactoring mainCore because it now looks too stuffy and long.

2. Enabling file uploads. (Figured out this wasn’t working while testing but has been a real PITA. I've implemented the required handlers/methods but still getting panics)

Uploads? For the wallet config file and dex cert file selections? Do they not work?

ukane-philemon · 2023-07-10T16:06:00Z

Yes, they won't work unless we implement a special method for that.

Nice work @ukane-philemon. I've confirmed that links and file uploads work.

I noticed that when I open the app, the window opens but doesn't take focus. Anybody else seeing this? I thought it was working before.

ukane-philemon · 2023-07-17T08:34:03Z

I noticed that when I open the app, the window opens but doesn't take focus. Anybody else seeing this? I thought it was working before.

I've just looked into this and I don't know how we can make the login form take focus automatically in NSWindow. We already use makeKeyAndOrderFront:, and I think that's all we need. Users might need to interact with the form before entering their password.

ukane-philemon · 2023-07-17T09:28:48Z

After poking around I found out we can achieve that behaviour with [[NSRunningApplication currentApplication] activateWithOptions:(NSApplicationActivateAllWindows | NSApplicationActivateIgnoringOtherApps)]; but it is discouraged in the Apple docs: You should rarely pass this flag because stealing key focus produces a poor user experience. See: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nsapplicationactivationoptions/nsapplicationactivateignoringotherapps?language=objc

But IMO, I think we should enable this behaviour. Saves users the extra burden of interacting with the app. After all, they opened it and intend to use it. What do you think @buck54321?
