AppCache Plugin v3.0.0 - BRJS 1.0 Compatibility

Changes to make the plugin compatible with BRJS 1.0 plugin API changes.

  • The version is now configured via the internal BRJS version rather than a separate config file. See below for usage.
  • The tokens $timestamp and $brjsVersion are no longer needed or supported as the BRJS model version already provides this.

Usage

Quick start

Usage

Installation

  • Copy the plugin JAR to the BRJS conf/java folder.

Enabling

  • The plugin provides the appcache.url tag handler. This tag will replaced with the URL to the manifest file, so you should set the manifest attribute on the html element to use the tag as its value.
    • To do this change the html element to <html manifest="<@appcache.url@/>">

Configuration

  • By default the appcache is disabled in 'dev' and a URL that returns a 404 response will be used to disable the cache
  • The appcache version is configured via the BRJS version property.
  • To enable the appcache in 'dev' the version should be changed to a numbered version. To do this run the serve command
    with the 'version' argument, for example brjs serve -v 1.2.3. A timestamp will be appended to the
    version to ensure versions are unique.
    • The timestamp is calculated when the serve is started and will not
      change on subsequent reloads. This is to ensure the version remains static in the manifest as browser's
      will throw an exception is the manifest file changes while assets are being downloaded. To change the version
      the server will need to be restarted for a new timestamp to be generated.
  • When building an app for production the version can be supplied via the 'version' argument, for example brjs build-app foo -v 1.2.3.
    As with the serve command a timestamp is also appended to this version.

Better Versioning

AppCache Plugin v2.1.0

A few changes to how versioning is handled by the appcache to allow greater customisation by developers and better version handling in the browser.

  • The version config option is now split into version for prod and devVersion for dev.
  • The version config options support special variables $timestamp and $brjsVersion. See the readme configuration section for more details.
  • The appcache is now disabled in prod unless a version is configured.
    • To replicate the old behaviour your appcache configuration should contain version: $brjsVersion
  • In dev mode the appcache now always uses 'appcache-disabled' as the manifest string if the appcache is not configured. This prevents an issue when connecting to one BRJS instance with multiple devices where appcache would not be disabled properly.
  • A $BRJS_APPCACHE_VERSION property is now added to the window object which stores the current appcache version. This allows more powerful version checking via JavaScript.

20140919 Note the originally uploaded JAR was built with Java 8 and may have produced compatibility issues with some systems. This has been replaced with a Java 7 built version. The Java 8 version is still available with the -java8 suffix.

BRJS 0.8 support

AppCache Plugin v1.0.2

  • Updated to work with BRJS 0.8

  • Fixed a bug where spaces in filenames would break the manifest.

    • This was due to the appcache manifest file not supporting spaces. Spaces are now URL encoded before being written to the manifest.

    Spaces in filenames may still not work due to a BRJS bug BladeRunnerJS/brjs#715
