Now that extension loading and the extensions map are no longer shared
between the gnome-shell and gnome-shell-extension-prefs processes, we
can move both into the ExtensionManager which makes much more sense
conceptually.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
By direclty using the underlying GSetting, whether or not an extension
appears as enabled or disabled currently depends only on whether it is
included in the 'enabled-extensions' list or not.
However this doesn't necessarily reflect the real extension state, as an
extension may be in error state, or enabled via the session mode.
Switch to the extensions D-Bus API to ensure that the list of extensions
and each extension's state correctly reflects the state in gnome-shell.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
Extensions are used to calling the getCurrentExtension() utility function,
both from the extension itself and from its preferences. For the latter,
that relies on the extensions map in ExtensionUtils being populated from
the separated extension-prefs process just like from gnome-shell.
This won't be the case anymore when we switch to the extensions D-Bus API,
but as we know which extension we are showing the prefs dialog for, we
can patch in a simple replacement that gives extensions the expected API.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
Each row represents an extension, so it makes sense to associate the
rows with the actual extensions instead of linking rows and extensions
by looking up the UUID in the external extensions map in ExtensionUtils.
This will also make it much easier to stop using the shared extension
loading / map in favor of the extension D-Bus API.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
Whether or not an extension can be enabled/disabled depends on various
factors: Whether the extension is in error state, whether user extensions
are disabled and whether the underlying GSettings keys are writable.
This is complex enough to share the logic, so add it to the extension
properties that are exposed over D-Bus.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
The existing 'ExtensionStatusChanged' signal has a fixed set of parameters,
which means we cannot add additional state without an API break. Deprecate
it in favor of a new 'ExtensionStateChanged' signal which addresses this
issue by taking the full serialized extension as parameter.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
Serializing an extension for sending over D-Bus is currently done by the
appropriate D-Bus method implementations. Split out the code as utility
function and add a corresponding deserialization function, which we will
soon use when consuming the D-Bus extension API from the extension-prefs
tool.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
Extensions are currently enabled or disabled by directly changing the
list in the 'enabled-extensions' GSettings key. As we will soon add
an overriding 'disabled-extensions' key as well, it makes sense to
offer explicit API for enabling/disabling to avoid duplicating the
logic.
For the corresponding D-Bus API, the methods were even mentioned in
the GSettings schema, albeit unimplemented until now.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
While public methods to enable/disable extensions make sense for an
extension manager, the existing ones are only used internally. Make
them private and rename them, so that we can re-use the current
names for more useful public methods.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
The extension system started out as a set of simple functions, but
gained more state later, and even some hacks to emit signals without
having an object to emit them on.
There is no good reason for that weirdness, so rather than imitating an
object, wrap the existing system into a real ExtensionManager object.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
It makes sense to keep extension-related enums in the same module instead
of spreading them between ExtensionSystem and ExtensionUtils.
More importantly, this will make the type available to the extensions-prefs
tool (which runs in a different process and therefore only has access to
a limited set of modules).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
Commit bd18313d12 changed to a new naming scheme for battery icons,
and used to old icon names as fallback-icon-name for compatibility
with older/other icon themes.
However that fallback code isn't working correctly, as GThemedIcon's
default fallbacks will transform a name of `battery-level-90-symbolic`
to a list of names:
- `battery-level-90-symbolic`
- `battery-level-symbolic`
- `battery-symbolic`
The last one frequently exists, so instead of the intended fallback,
we end up with a generic battery icon.
Address this by specifying the icon as GIcon instead of an icon-name,
where we have more control over how the icon is resolved.

Just as we did for the workspace switcher popup, support workspaces
being laid out in a single row in the window picker.
Note that this takes care of the various workspace switch actions in
the overview (scrolling, panning, touch(pad) gestures) as well as the
switch animation, but not of the overview's workspace switcher component.
There are currently no plans to support other layouts there, as the
component is inherently vertical (in fact, it was the whole reason for
switching the layout in the first place).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/575
While mutter supports a variety of different grid layouts (n columns/rows,
growing vertically or horizontally from any of the four corners), we
hardcode a fixed vertical layout of a single column.
Now that mutter exposes the actual layout to us, add support for a more
traditional horizontal layout as well.

Extension preferences Application class is just a container for a GtkApplication
so instead of using composition we can inherit from the base GObject class.
Also replace signal connections with vfunc's.

In some cases the style-changed signal hasn't been emitted when
_computeLayout() is called, resulting in the use of the default spacing
and item size values for the calculations.
One case where this happens is when starting a search. Right after the
initialization of GridSearchResults, _computeLayout() is called from
_getMaxDisplayedResults() and the style-changed signal hasn't been
emitted yet. The computed layout will be wrong and the maximum
number of results will also be wrong.
To prevent this from happening, make sure the style has been updated
before doing the calculations in _computeLayout().
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/110
The calculation of how many results can be shown in GridSearchResults is
broken: The width of the parent container (resultsView.actor) we're
using as the maximum width right now is the width of the scrollView of
SearchResults (which always expands to the whole screen size). This
width will only be correct if the scrollView (ie. the whole screen) is
smaller than the max width of searchResultsContent, which only is the
case for screens smaller than 1000px.
To fix the calculation, use the width of our own actor and don't get it
using clutter_actor_get_width(), but using the last allocation of the
actor. This way we don't get the preferred width if the actor is not
allocated at this point (it's hidden by _ensureProviderDisplay() when
starting a new search).
Then, when the allocation of the actor changes, rebuild the grid search
results by calling updateSearch() with the old arguments to ensure the
number of visible results is correct. The fact that we're only listening
for allocation changes here is the reason why we never want to use the
preferred width of the actor inside _getMaxDisplayedResults(): While
the actor is hidden clutter_actor_get_width() would return the preferred
width, which we'd then use the as the maximum width. But if the actor
had a correct allocation before, no notify::allocation signal will be
emitted when the actor is shown again because the allocation is still
the same, and we'll end up using the preferred width as maximium width
forever.

The functionality the searchResultsBin container provides can easily be
moved into a subclass of St.BoxLayout, no need for an additional StBin.
The "searchResultsBin" css class isn't used in the stylesheets either.
Same with the scrollChild container.

Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty() is more precise than checking for
falsiness, for instance the following is true:
{ foo: undefined }.hasOwnProperty('foo');
However when checking for a handler ID, a more relaxed check is more
appropriate, as particularly 0 is not a valid handler ID.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/626
For some reason, people are still seeing those after commit d5ebd8c8.
While this is something we really should figure out, we can work around
the issue by keeping the view actors hidden until the update is complete.

Window previews are sometimes shown translucent, for example during
drags or animations. They can also have attached dialogs, in which
case the opacity should affect the combination of all windows instead
of being applied to each window individually, blended together, so
make sure they are redirected as a whole when necessary.

Whether people love or hate the hot corner depends in large extents
on hardware sensitivity and habits, which is hard to get right
universally. So bite the bullet and support an option to enable or
disable hot corners ...

GNOME Shell is spitting out some errors in the journal due to its attempts
to speak to PackageKit, which is not present on Endless OS, so let's add
some runtime checks to make sure that PackageKit is actually available
before assuming so and using its proxy to decide which kind of UI to
show to the user when ending the session.

The first parameter to Object.assign() is the same target object that
will be returned. That is, since commit 46874eed0 Params.parse() modifies
the @defaults object. Usually we pass that parameter as an object literal
and this isn't an issue, but the change breaks spectacularly in the few
cases where we use a re-usable variable.
Restore the previous behavior by copying the object first.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/615
Standard javascript now has Object.assign() which is very similar to
Params.parse(), except that the latter by default disallows "extra"
parameters. We can still leverage the standard API by simply
implementing the error check, and then call out to Object.assign()
for the actual parameter merging.

Braces are optional for single-line arrow functions, but there's a
subtle difference:
Without braces, the expression is implicitly used as return value; with
braces, the function returns nothing unless there's an explicit return.
We currently reflect that in our style by only omitting braces when the
function is expected to have a return value, but that's not very obvious,
not an important differentiation to make, and not easy to express in an
automatic rule.
So just omit braces consistently as mandated by gjs' coding style.
