... by moving the Google font includes near the top of the head. By
including them as early as possible, they are known, when the browser
starts rendering the body.
Test it by making the change manually in `doc/html/system.html` and then
press ctrl+f5 (reload without cache). This removes the font flashing.
Tested in Chrome and Firefox.
Makes docs default to using browser settings instead of light mode
This should fix#16515 since it doesn't require the browser to run the
JS to set the default
Also means that dark mode can be used without JS if the browser is
configured to default to dark mode
* docgen: implement cross-document links
Fully implements https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/125
Follow-up of: https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/18642 (for internal links)
and https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/20127.
Overview
--------
Explicit import-like directive is required, called `.. importdoc::`.
(the syntax is % RST, Markdown will use it for a while).
Then one can reference any symbols/headings/anchors, as if they
were in the local file (but they will be prefixed with a module name
or markup document in link text).
It's possible to reference anything from anywhere (any direction
in `.nim`/`.md`/`.rst` files).
See `doc/docgen.md` for full description.
Working is based on `.idx` files, hence one needs to generate
all `.idx` beforehand. A dedicated option `--index:only` is introduced
(and a separate stage for `--index:only` is added to `kochdocs.nim`).
Performance note
----------------
Full run for `./koch docs` now takes 185% of the time before this PR.
(After: 315 s, before: 170 s on my PC).
All the time seems to be spent on `--index:only` run, which takes
almost as much (85%) of normal doc run -- it seems that most time
is spent on file parsing, turning off HTML generation phase has not
helped much.
(One could avoid it by specifying list of files that can be referenced
and pre-processing only them. But it can become error-prone and I assume
that these linke will be **everywhere** in the repository anyway,
especially considering https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/478.
So every `.nim`/`.md` file is processed for `.idx` first).
But that's all without significant part of repository converted to
cross-module auto links. To estimate impact I checked the time for
`doc`ing a few files (after all indexes have been generated), and
everywhere difference was **negligible**.
E.g. for `lib/std/private/osfiles.nim` that `importdoc`s large
`os.idx` and hence should have been a case with relatively large
performance impact, but:
* After: 0.59 s.
* Before: 0.59 s.
So Nim compiler works so slow that doc part basically does not matter :-)
Testing
-------
1) added `extlinks` test to `nimdoc/`
2) checked that `theindex.html` is still correct
2) fixed broken auto-links for modules that were derived from `os.nim`
by adding appropriate ``importdoc``
Implementation note
-------------------
Parsing and formating of `.idx` entries is moved into a dedicated
`rstidx.nim` module from `rstgen.nim`.
`.idx` file format changed:
* fields are not escaped in most cases because we need original
strings for referencing, not HTML ones
(the exception is linkTitle for titles and headings).
Escaping happens later -- on the stage of `rstgen` buildIndex, etc.
* all lines have fixed number of columns 6
* added discriminator tag as a first column,
it always allows distinguish Nim/markup entries, titles/headings, etc.
`rstgen` does not rely any more (in most cases) on ad-hoc logic
to determine what type each entry is.
* there is now always a title entry added at the first line.
* add a line number as 6th column
* linkTitle (4th) column has a different format: before it was like
`module: funcName()`, now it's `proc funcName()`.
(This format is also propagated to `theindex.html` and search results,
I kept it that way since I like it more though it's discussible.)
This column is what used for Nim symbols resolution.
* also changed details on column format for headings and titles:
"keyword" is original, "linkTitle" is HTML one
* fix paths on Windows + more clear code
* Update compiler/docgen.nim

* Fix JS error on index page and detect dark mode
The theindex.html page doesn't have a dark mode switch so the main
function will error because `toggleSwitch` is not defined. Checks have
been added to prevent this from happening.
Also add automatic detection of system settings for dark-mode. This
could also be done with pure css, but then the dark mode variable
declarations would have to be duplicated to work with the switch so I
went with this approach.
* Fix nimdoc tests
* Fix rst2html tests
The default HTML template for nimdoc currently initializes the dark mode switch and pragma dots when the onload event is fired. But since the onload event does not fire until all external resources (images, stylesheets, fonts, etc.) have been loaded, the light theme is shown for a brief moment before the document is fully loaded, and it switches to the dark theme. This is quite jarring, especially on slower internet connections. So let's instead initialize these things on the DOMContentLoaded event, which is fired right after the document has been parsed and the initial DOM structure is ready. This means that we now display the dark mode immediately, without having to wait for external resources to load first.
For reference, see:
- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/load_event
- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/DOMContentLoaded_event
I have updated the snapshot tests in `nimdoc/`, and done some manual testing of both the theme switch and the pragma dots, to confirm that this does not break anything. Please let me know if I've missed anything.
* Implement some custom formatting for input fields in the documentation
Aside of resulting in more consistent appearance across browsers,
this also fixes input form rendering when using Firefox with a
dark system theme on Linux.
* change the expected html in the tests
