790640 - add Media Fragments for images (spatial dimensions)

Status: NEW

(Core :: Graphics: ImageLib, enhancement)

Description

[Florian Bender]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/16.0
Build ID: 20120904124322

Steps to reproduce:

Check: http://jsfiddle.net/Wf2Vj/


Actual results:

Full logo is shown. 


Expected results:

Only top-left part of logo should be shown. 

This should work in CSS (image() function, priority) as well as IMG tags. This feature allows easy Image Sprites. Also, this feature is required for implementing the image() function in CSS.

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

Taking this one as a subproject of bug 801844.

Comment 2

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

See also bug 648595, which implements the temporal dimension portion of the Media Fragments URI spec.

Attachment: (part 1) Add parser support for spatial media fragments.

Still tracking down a lingering crasher in the imagelib-related code for this bug, but I don't foresee any more changes at the parsing level. Going ahead and requesting review for the parsing code.

Moved the enum out of the class to clean up calling code.

Review of attachment 677575 [details] [diff] [review]:
-----------------------------------------------------------------

I'll pass this review over to doublec, as he wrote the code in question.

We'll need some reftests here. The video tests are in layout/reftests/{ogg,webm}-video/, though I presume they're blocked on some other patch actually making use of the parsed values?

Comment 6

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

Part 1 should not produce any visible change in functionality; it just cleans up the API to support what is needed in part 2. Part 2 (which will hopefully be posted today, as I believe I've finally resolved the remaining issues) will  add support for media fragments for images. There will be reftests for that (which will be part 3, also hopefully coming today). I won't be adding support for spatial media fragments for video as part of this bug; I'll be happy to file a new bug, though, which should depend on this one.

Comment 7

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

See bug 808170 for support for spatial media fragments in video.

Comment 8

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

Animation of image media fragments won't be resolved in this bug. (More specifically, it will work for vector images but not raster images.) That will be resolved in bug 808189.

Slightly updated version of part 1.

Seth, Jeff Muizelaar and I talked for a while about this, and we agreed that we want him to create a new Image type that can clip according to the media fragments spec.

Just initialize rv as NS_ERROR_FAILURE when you create it; that'll leave us without any worry of whether it's initialized in all paths, and will let you remove some if bodies.

This should be an enum instead of a boolean.

Thanks Chris!

Attachment: (part 1) Add parser support for spatial media fragments.

Rebased against the current mozilla-central.

Comment 17

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

Attachment: (Part 1) Store images only on imgRequestProxy, and not on imgRequest.

First step: since we don't want to cache the wrapped Image objects that are used to implement media fragments, we'll need to store a reference to them (indirectly) with each imgRequestProxy instead of at the imgStatusTracker or imgRequest level. With an approach like that in bug 665707 we could switch to using a new imgRequest every time instead of caching imgRequests, which would make this approach unnecessary, but that's no simple matter.

Comment 18

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

Attachment: (Part 2) Ignore an image's URI ref for caching purposes.

Since the cache is keyed on the URI of the image, we want to ensure that the ref part of the URI is always ignored, or the same base URI with different media fragments will get separate cache entries. We hand over the actual URI, including the ref, to the imgRequestProxy, so that it can wrap the Image object appropriately if a media fragment is present.

Comment 19

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

Attachment: (Part 3) Add ImageWrapper superclass for all Image wrapper classes.

Since we're going to need multiple Image wrapper classes to implement this bug, and there will probably be more in the future, it makes sense to make implementing them as painless as possible by adding a superclass that handles the trivial delegation case.

Comment 20

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

Whoops, sorry about that. Meant to put the patch that I just uploaded as part 3 in bug 826093.

Why not do this in imgLoader, rather than having to have GetSpecIgnoringRef() everywhere?

(Part 2) Ignore an image's URI ref for caching purposes.

Seth just explained this to me - given that we are basically aliasing images by caching ignoring the ref, but exposing different views to consumers based on their imgRequestProxy (i.e., the exact URI, including the media fragment ref), we can't simply strip out the ref from imgLoader. Sad-face.

Heh, mid-air collision. Indeed, that's the idea. Thanks for the review Joe! I'll get that commented code removed shortly.

Comment 25

[Wesley Johnston (:wesj)]

What do we need to do to land this?

Comment 26

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

Not that much more, now. This got delayed a lot by issues in patches it depended on - there were SVG-related issues like bug 704059, which are _hopefully_ finally resolved as of yesterday, and there was a memory leak that needed to be tracked down. At this point I mostly need to rebase my implementation against the current version of the code, as quite a bit has changed. Later today I'll update this bug with the remaining dependencies so you can see what's left to do.

Comment 27

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

So actually the current dependencies are still correct; what we're waiting on here is bug 826093. When that bug is done, the media fragments code will be a pretty simple patch on top of that. Bug 826093 is probably going to end up being divided into three separate bugs; there's one bug already posted there now and currently awaiting review, and two others that will come soon.

Comment 29

[Anne (:annevk)]

How does this feature interact with XMLHttpRequest (bytes returned) or <canvas>.drawImage() (copied)?

Basically, does this happen at the fetch level, decoding level, elsewhere? http://www.w3.org/TR/media-frags/ doesn't seem exactly clear on this.

Absolutely. Resuming work on this now.

If the spec's not clear enough it may be that we need to add some clarification. As currently implemented, this happens more or less at the decode level. Every instance of the same image on a page shares the same underlying network request, regardless of what the media fragment on each instance is. (Well, modulo caching policy and such - basically, two '<img src="foo.jpg">' on the same page are no different from one '<img src="foo.jpg">' and one '<img src="foo.jpg#xywh=...">' for these purposes.)

What this means is that XMLHttpRequest for "foo.jpg#xywh=..." will yield exactly the same bytes as "foo.jpg". As an uninterpreted stream of bytes, the two are the same.

However, anything that interprets the image as an _image_ will see the clipped version of the image. This means that drawImage() on a canvas will draw the clipped version of the image. There will be no exceptions to this. Once the media-fragment-bearing image is "decoded" by imagelib, the effect is the same as if the original image had been clipped in the way specified by the media fragment.

Comment 35

[jsnkuhn]

Would love to see this resurrected. It's a much better over all solution for image spiriting. Issues with the current process:

• requires the use of CSS background images even when you shouldn't need them
• syntax is bloated at best, uses up background-size and background-position therefore these properties can't be used for their normal purposes
• background repeat-x or repeat-y requires a specifically designed image
• can't repeat in both directions
• can't use for multiple border-image (requires distance from the edge)

Media Fragments for images would, I believe, fix all of this.

Comment 36

[jsnkuhn]

Very confused by this bug. It looks like a ton of work was put in toward image-fragments but nothing ever came of it?? Or did this lead to -moz-image-rect

Comment 37

[cajbir (:cajbir)]

The Media Fragments proposal didn't carry forward and other browsers weren't keen to implement IIRC.

Any updates on this? This ticket doesn't seem to have any open tickets blocking it. It however blocks css image features and dozens of other dependent and subdependents.
