I'm hoping to migrate from using WebUSB to SerialAPI (which is explained nicely here).
Current Code:
try {
let device = await navigator.usb.requestDevice({
filters: [{
usbVendorId: RECEIVER_VENDOR_ID
}]
})
this.connect(device)
} catch (error) {
console.log(DEVICE_NAME + ': Permission Denied')
}
New Code:
try {
let device = await navigator.serial.requestPort({
filters: [{
usbVendorId: RECEIVER_VENDOR_ID
}]
})
this.connect(device)
} catch (error) {
console.log(DEVICE_NAME + ': Permission Denied')
}
The new code appears to work, but I think it's because the browser has already requested the device via the old code.
I've tried restarting Chrome as well as clearing all of the browsing history. Even closed the USB-claiming page and claimed the device with another app (during which it returns the DOMException: Unable to claim interface error), but Chrome doesn't seem to want to ask again. It just happily streams the data with the previous connection.
My hope was that using SerialAPI would be a way to avoid fighting over the USB with other processes, or at least losing to them.
Update
I had forgotten about:
Failed to execute 'requestPort' on 'Serial': "Must be handling a user gesture to show a permission request"
Does this mean that the user will need to use a button to connect to the device via SerialUSB? I think with WebUSB I was able to make the connect window automatically pop up.
For both APIs, as is noted in the update, a user gesture is required in order to call the requestDevice() or requestPort() method. It is not possible to automatically pop up this prompt. (If there is that's a bug so please let the Chrome team know so we can fix it.)
Permissions granted to a site through the WebUSB API and Web Serial API are currently tracked separately so permission to access a device through one will not automatically translate into the other.
There is not currently a way to programatically forget a device permission. That would require the navigator.permissions.revoke() method which has been abandoned. You can however manually revoke permission to access the device by clicking on the "lock" icon in the address bar while visiting the site or going to chrome://settings/content/usbDevices (for USB devices) and chrome://settings/content/serialPorts (for serial ports).
To get Chrome to "forget" the WebUSB device previously paired via navigator.usb.requestDevice API:
Open the page paired to the device you want to forget
Click on the icon in the address bar
Click x next to device. If nothing is listed, then there are no paired devices for this web page.
The new code was NOT working. It just appeared to be because Chrome was already paired with the port via the old code. There is no way the "new code" could have worked because, as noted in Kalido's comment, the SerialAPI (due to its power) requires a user gesture to connect.
The code I'm using to actually connect and get data is basically built up from a few pieces from the above links in the OP:
navigator.serial.addEventListener('connect', e => {
// Add |e.target| to the UI or automatically connect.
console.log("connected");
});
navigator.serial.addEventListener('disconnect', e => {
// Remove |e.target| from the UI. If the device was open the disconnection can
// also be observed as a stream error.
console.log("disconnected");
});
console.log(navigator.serial);
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', async () => {
const connectButton = document.querySelector('#connect') as HTMLInputElement;
if (connectButton) {
connectButton.addEventListener('click', async () => {
try {
// Request Keiser Receiver from the user.
const port = await navigator.serial.requestPort({
filters: [{ usbVendorId: 0x2341, usbProductId: not_required }]
});
try {
// Open and begin reading.
await port.open({ baudRate: 115200 });
} catch (e) {
console.log(e);
}
while (port.readable) {
const reader = port.readable.getReader();
try {
while (true) {
const { value, done } = await reader.read();
if (done) {
// Allow the serial port to be closed later.
reader.releaseLock();
break;
}
if (value) {
console.log(value);
}
}
} catch (error) {
// TODO: Handle non-fatal read error.
console.log(error);
}
}
} catch (e) {
console.log("Permission to access a device was denied implicitly or explicitly by the user.");
console.log(e);
console.log(port);
}
}
}
The device-specific Vendor and Product IDs would obviously change from device to device. In the above example I have inserted an Arduino vendor ID.
It doesn't answer the question of how to get Chrome to "forget", but I'm not sure if that's relevant when using SerialAPI because of the required gesture.
Hopefully someone with more experience will be able to post a more informative answer.
I'm currently working on a simple share function where I can share a news article via the URL (I.E. https://www.nrps.nl/Nieuws/Nieuwsitem.aspx?ID=812). I'm using React Native Share for this (code below). When sharing on Facebook it shows up as dnndev.me instead of nrps.nl, what I expected it to be. Clicking the dnndev.me link redirects to https://www.nrps.nl/Nieuws/Nieuwsitem.aspx?ID=812&fbclid=IwAR3Eq-j1wX8GUVvSEvhFNu85k8U_vjmV0l4_ycF-AUhoV61YBIieRGJgQg4 instead of https://www.nrps.nl/Nieuws/Nieuwsitem.aspx?ID=812, but the content is the same. (if I shouldn't show any of this, please edit it out. I don't know what the extra string means)
From what I can tell, dnndev.me seems to be a development environment.
The questions:
What is dnndev.me, besides some sort of host?
Can I do anything to work around it showing up as dnndev.me or can I only inform NRPS that they haven't done so already?
RN code:
let message = `${news.Title}\n${news.Image}\n${news.MessageUrl}`
news.title is a simple string. news.image is a URL to an image, news.MessageUrl is the URL of the news article itself. I've tested it with only the MessageUrl and it has the same result.
try {
const result = await Share.share({
message: `${message}`,
});
if (result.action === Share.sharedAction) {
if (result.activityType) {
// shared with activity type of result.activityType
} else {
// shared
}
} else if (result.action === Share.dismissedAction) {
// dismissed
console.log("Sharing dismissed")
}
} catch (e) {
console.log(e);
}
EDIT:
What I want to happen is to have the auto generated square / content field (or however it's called) like follows:
https://imgur.com/EalEbmZ
dnndev.me is a web server. As a web server, it notifies facebook of any problems in managing and operating facebook data and also solves any problems.
webSite of dnndev.me
And the fbclid behind the existing parameters is the visitor tracking system ID.
The acronym for fbclid is: "Facebook Click Identifier". It means a
Facebook click identifier.
It's about Facebook clicks.
These are parameters introduced for accurate statistics from this data.
We're also going to exchange data with Google Annalysis and AdSense.
Make more accurate estimates of visitors.
To share Facebook, you can use the following modules to work around it: This solution is contained in the Facebook developer's official document.
$yarn add react-native-fbsdk or npm install --save react-native-fbsdk
$ react-native link react-native-fbsdk
Note For iOS using cocoapods, run:
$ cd ios/ && pod install
Usage
import { ShareDialog } from 'react-native-fbsdk';
let message = `${news.Title}\n${news.Image}\n${news.MessageUrl}`
const shareLinkContent = {
contentType: 'link',
contentUrl: "https://www.nrps.nl/Nieuws/Nieuwsitem.aspx?ID=812",
contentDescription: message,
};
...
this.state = {shareLinkContent: shareLinkContent,};
...
shareLinkWithShareDialog() {
var tmp = this;
ShareDialog.canShow(this.state.shareLinkContent).then(
function(canShow) {
if (canShow) {
return ShareDialog.show(tmp.state.shareLinkContent);
}
}
).then(
function(result) {
if (result.isCancelled) {
alert('Share operation was cancelled');
} else {
alert('Share was successful with postId: '
+ result.postId);
}
},
function(error) {
alert('Share failed with error: ' + error.message);
}
);
}
I use { Share } from 'react-native'.
I shared message successfully, no problem.
Now, I generate dynamically a PDF and save it at local.
Is it possible to share the PDF like when I share an url? I didn't find solutions.
After thinking, if PDF isn't possible to share. I have the idea to create dynamically HTML file with react native, then I can share the html file, but it's the same problem. There are no informations about sharing file with { Share}.
I think it's possible with the { Share } from 'react-native' because I saw the same thing on another app on Android.
I had the same problem with the share of react native. I just used this library React Native Share.
And you can pass the url to the file in your file system and it will work properly:
Share.open({
title: "This is my report ",
message: "Message:",
url: "file:///storage/emulated/0/demo/test.pdf",
subject: "Report",
})
This seems to work with the basic Share library from React Native, as long as you have the file:// URL of your PDF file:
Share.share({
url: `file:///path/to/your/file.pdf`,
title: 'Download PDF'
})
I've only tested on iOS, so YMMV.
here is my code currently are used in my app for share image link:
shareMessage =async (PhotoLink) => {
try {
const result = await Share.share({
title:"title goes here",
// url:,
message: "see the photo"+JSON.stringify(PhotoLink),
});
if (result.action === Share.sharedAction) {
if (result.activityType) {
// shared with activity type of result.activityType
} else {
// shared
}
} else if (result.action === Share.dismissedAction) {
// dismissed
}
} catch (error) {
alert(error.message);
}}
...
onPress={() => this.shareMessage(this.props.route.params.url)}
the share component imported from react native;
you can use the like of your PDF to share;
my problem is how can I share link with a small image...you know...like telegram ... when you share a photo, like+ massage+photo will share in a frame.
I don't know how!
I had the same issue.
Fixed it by adding file:// in-front of path.
Share.open({
title: `Share ${fileName}`,
url: `file://${filePath}`,
type: 'audio/mp3',
})
I know that client-side Javascript cannot write data to the local filesystem, for obvious security reasons.
The only way to save data locally with Javascript seems to be with cookies, localStorage, or allow the user to download a file (with a "Save..." dialog box or to the browser's default Download folder).
But is it possible, in the very specific case when the file is accessed locally with an URL like file:///D:/test/index.html (and not through internet) to write data locally ? (without any server language, and even without any server at all: just local browsing of a HTML file)
For example, would it be possible, by clicking on SAVE here:
<div contenteditable="true" style="height:200px;">Content editable - edit me and save!</div>
<button>Save</button>
...that such a HTML file (accessed through file:///D:/test/index.html) is overwritten with its new content ? (i.e. the local HTML file should be updated when SAVE is pressed).
TL;DR: Is this possible to SAVE a file thanks to Javascript, when the HTML page is accessed locally?
Note: I want to be able to silently save, not propose a Download/Save dialog box in which the user has to choose where to download, then "Are you sure to want to overwrite" etc.
EDIT : Why this question? I'm doing an in-browser notepad that I can run locally without any server (no Apache, no PHP). I need to be able to save easily without having to deal with Dialog Box "Where do you want to download the file?" and having to always re-browse to the same folder to overwrite the currently-being-edited file. I would like a simple UX like in any notepad program: CTRL+S done, the current file is saved! (example: MS Word doesn't ask to browse where you want to save the file each time you do "Save": CTRL+S, done!)
You can just use the Blob function:
function save() {
var htmlContent = ["your-content-here"];
var bl = new Blob(htmlContent, {type: "text/html"});
var a = document.createElement("a");
a.href = URL.createObjectURL(bl);
a.download = "your-download-name-here.html";
a.hidden = true;
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.innerHTML = "something random - nobody will see this, it doesn't matter what you put here";
a.click();
}
and your file will save.
The canonical answer, from the W3C File API Standard:
User agents should provide an API exposed to script that exposes the features above. The user is notified by UI anytime interaction with the file system takes place, giving the user full ability to cancel or abort the transaction. The user is notified of any file selections, and can cancel these. No invocations to these APIs occur silently without user intervention.
Basically, because of security settings, any time you download a file, the browser will make sure the user actually wants to save the file. Browsers don't really differentiate JavaScript on your computer and JavaScript from a web server. The only difference is how the browser accesses the file, so storing the page locally will not make a difference.
Workarounds:
However, you could just store the innerHTML of the <div> in a cookie. When the user gets back, you can load it back from the cookie. Although it isn't exactly saving the file to the user's computer, it should have the same effect as overwriting the file. When the user gets back, they will see what they entered the last time. The disadvantage is that, if the user clears their website data, their information will be lost. Since ignoring a user's request to clear local storage is also a security problem, there really is no way around it.
However, you could also do the following:
Use a Java applet
Use some other kind of applet
Create a desktop (non-Web based) application
Just remember to save the file when you clear your website data. You can create an alert that pops up and reminds you, or even opens the save window for you, when you exit the page.
Using cookies: You can use JavaScript cookies on a local page. Just put this in a file and open it in your browser:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<p id="timesVisited"></p>
<script type="text/javascript">
var timesVisited = parseInt(document.cookie.split("=")[1]);
if (isNaN(timesVisited)) timesVisited = 0;
timesVisited++;
document.cookie = "timesVisited=" + timesVisited;
document.getElementById("timesVisited").innerHTML = "You ran this snippet " + timesVisited + " times.";
</script>
</body>
</html>
Chromium's File System Access API (introduced in 2019)
There's a relatively new, non-standard File System Access API (not to be confused with the earlier File and Directory Entries API or the File System API). It looks like it was introduced in 2019/2020 in Chromium/Chrome, and doesn't have support in Firefox or Safari.
When using this API, a locally opened page can open/save other local files and use the files' data in the page. It does require initial permission to save, but while the user is on the page, subsequent saves of specific files do so 'silently'. A user can also grant permission to a specific directory, in which subsequent reads and writes to that directory don't require approval. Approval is needed again after the user closes all the tabs to the web page and reopens the page.
You can read more about this newish API at https://web.dev/file-system-access/. It's meant to be used to make more powerful web applications.
A few things to note about it:
By default, it requires a secure context to run. Running it on https, localhost, or through file:// should work.
You can get a file handle from dragging and dropping a file by using DataTransferItem.getAsFileSystemHandle
Initially reading or saving a file requires user approval and can only be initiated via a user interaction. After that, subsequent reads and saves don't need approval, until the site is opened again.
Handles to files can be saved in the page (so if you were editing 'path/to/file.html', and reload the page, it would be able to have a reference to the file). They can't seemingly be stringified, so are stored through something like IndexedDB (see this answer for more info). Using stored handles to read/write requires user interaction and user approval.
Here are some simple examples. They don't seem to run in a cross-domain iframe, so you probably need to save them as an html file and open them up in Chrome/Chromium.
Opening and Saving, with Drag and Drop (no external libraries):
<body>
<div><button id="open">Open</button><button id="save">Save</button></div>
<textarea id="editor" rows=10 cols=40></textarea>
<script>
let openButton = document.getElementById('open');
let saveButton = document.getElementById('save');
let editor = document.getElementById('editor');
let fileHandle;
async function openFile() {
try {
[fileHandle] = await window.showOpenFilePicker();
await restoreFromFile(fileHandle);
} catch (e) {
// might be user canceled
}
}
async function restoreFromFile() {
let file = await fileHandle.getFile();
let text = await file.text();
editor.value = text;
}
async function saveFile() {
var saveValue = editor.value;
if (!fileHandle) {
try {
fileHandle = await window.showSaveFilePicker();
} catch (e) {
// might be user canceled
}
}
if (!fileHandle || !await verifyPermissions(fileHandle)) {
return;
}
let writableStream = await fileHandle.createWritable();
await writableStream.write(saveValue);

Storing and Retrieving a File Handle using idb-keyval:
Storing file handles can be tricky, since they can't be unstringified, though apparently they can be used with IndexedDB and mostly with history.state. For this example we'll use idb-keyval to access IndexedDB to store a file handle. To see it work, open or save a file, and then reload the page and press the 'Restore' button. This example uses some code from https://stackoverflow.com/a/65938910/.
<body>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/idb-keyval#6.1.0/dist/umd.js"></script>
<div><button id="restore" style="display:none">Restore</button><button id="open">Open</button><button id="save">Save</button></div>
<textarea id="editor" rows=10 cols=40></textarea>
<script>
let restoreButton = document.getElementById('restore');
let openButton = document.getElementById('open');
let saveButton = document.getElementById('save');
let editor = document.getElementById('editor');
let fileHandle;
async function openFile() {
try {
[fileHandle] = await window.showOpenFilePicker();
await restoreFromFile(fileHandle);
} catch (e) {
// might be user canceled
}
}
async function restoreFromFile() {
let file = await fileHandle.getFile();
let text = await file.text();
await idbKeyval.set('file', fileHandle);
editor.value = text;
restoreButton.style.display = 'none';
}
async function saveFile() {
var saveValue = editor.value;
if (!fileHandle) {
try {
fileHandle = await window.showSaveFilePicker();
await idbKeyval.set('file', fileHandle);
} catch (e) {
// might be user canceled
}
}
if (!fileHandle || !await verifyPermissions(fileHandle)) {
return;
}
let writableStream = await fileHandle.createWritable();
await writableStream.write(saveValue);
await writableStream.close();
restoreButton.style.display = 'none';
}
async function verifyPermissions(handle) {
if (await handle.queryPermission({ mode: 'readwrite' }) === 'granted') {
return true;
}
if (await handle.requestPermission({ mode: 'readwrite' }) === 'granted') {
return true;
}
return false;
}
async function init() {
var previousFileHandle = await idbKeyval.get('file');
if (previousFileHandle) {
restoreButton.style.display = 'inline-block';
restoreButton.addEventListener('click', async function (e) {
if (await verifyPermissions(previousFileHandle)) {
fileHandle = previousFileHandle;
await restoreFromFile();
}
});
}
document.body.addEventListener('dragover', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
});
document.body.addEventListener('drop', async function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
for (const item of e.dataTransfer.items) {
console.log(item);
if (item.kind === 'file') {
let entry = await item.getAsFileSystemHandle();
if (entry.kind === 'file') {
fileHandle = entry;
restoreFromFile();
} else if (entry.kind === 'directory') {
// handle directory
}
}
}
});
openButton.addEventListener('click', openFile);
saveButton.addEventListener('click', saveFile);
}
init();
</script>
</body>
Additional Notes
Firefox and Safari support seems to be unlikely, at least in the near term. See https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/154 and https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2020-August/031362.html
Yes, it's possible.
In your example, you are already using ContentEditable and most of tutorials for that attribute have some sort of localStrorage example, ie. http://www.html5tuts.co.uk/demos/localstorage/
On page load, script should check localStorage for data and if true, populate element. Any changes in content could be saved in localStorage when clicking save button (or automatically, in linked example, using blur and focus). Additionally you can use this snippet to check weather user is online or offline and based on state modify your logic:
// check if online/offline
// http://www.kirupa.com/html5/check_if_internet_connection_exists_in_javascript.htm
function doesConnectionExist() {
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
var file = "http://www.yoursite.com/somefile.png";
var randomNum = Math.round(Math.random() * 10000);
xhr.open('HEAD', file + "?rand=" + randomNum, false);
try {
xhr.send();
if (xhr.status >= 200 && xhr.status < 304) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
} catch (e) {
return false;
}
}
EDIT: More advance version of localStorage is Mozilla localForage which allows storing other types of data besides strings.
You could save files, and make it persistent using the FileSystem-API and webkit. You would have to use a chrome browser and it is not a standards technology but I think it does exactly what you want it to do. Here is a great tutorial to show how to do just that http://www.noupe.com/design/html5-filesystem-api-create-files-store-locally-using-javascript-webkit.html
And to show that its on topic it starts off showing you how to make the file save persistent...
window.webkitRequestFileSystem(window.PERSISTENT , 1024*1024, SaveDatFileBro);
Convert your HTML content to a data uri string, and set as href attribute of an anchor element. Don't forget to specify a filename as download attribute.
Here's a simple example:
<a>click to download</a>
<script>
var anchor = document.querySelector('a');
anchor.setAttribute('download', 'example.html');
anchor.setAttribute('href', 'data:text/html;charset=UTF-8,<p>asdf</p>');
</script>
Just try it in your browser, no server required.
Have a look into this :)
Download File Using Javascript/jQuery
there should be everything you need. If you still need help or it's not the solution you need, tell me ;)
Yes, it is possible. Proof by example:
TiddlyFox: allows modification of local files via an add-on. (source code) (extension page):
TiddlyFox is an extension for Mozilla Firefox that enables TiddlyWiki
to save changes directly to the file system.
Todo.html: An HTML file that saves edits to itself. Currently, it only works in Internet Explorer and you have to confirm some security dialogs when first opening the file. (source code) (functional demo).
Steps to confirm todo.html actually saves changes to itself locally:
Save todo.html to local harddrive
Open with Internet Explorer. Accept all the security dialogs.
Type command todo add TEST (todo.html emulates the command-line interface of todo.txt-CLI)
Inspect todo.html file for addition of 'TEST'
Caveats: there is no cross-platform method. I'm not sure how much longer these methods will exist. When I first started my todo.html project, there was a jQuery plugin called twFile that allowed cross-browser loading/saving of local files using four different methods (ActiveX, Mozilla XUL, Java applet, Java Live Connect). Except for ActiveX, browsers have disallowed all these methods due to security concerns.
If you are fine with your code running outside of the scope of your default browser, and you are fine with windows only support, HTAs meet the silently save without prompts requirement easily.
The below code doesn't use many HTA specific features but it does still use microsoft specific stuff like ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").
<html>
<head>
<title>Simple Notepad</title>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9">
<script>
document.addEventListener('keydown', function (event) {
if (event.ctrlKey) {
if (event.key == 's') {
var FSo = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
//see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/language/reference/user-interface-help/opentextfile-method
var thisFile = FSo.OpenTextFile(window.location.pathname, 2, true, -1);
thisFile.Write(document.getElementsByTagName("html")[0].outerHTML);
thisFile.Close();
// Comment out the below alert to get truly silent saving.
alert('Saved Successfully');
if (event.preventDefault) event.preventDefault();
return false;
}
}
}, false);
</script>
</head>
<body contentEditable="true">
<h1>Press <kbd>CTRL + S</kbd> To Save</h1>
</body>
</html>
It also isn't a very rich editing experience but that can be fixed with some more buttons or keyboard shortcuts I think. Like CTRL + B to embolden selected text. It doesn't have any safety checks as of yet, but binding an event handler to beforeunload should prevent any data loss caused by accidentally closing the program.
HTA's do have other disadvantages too. They don't support ES6 (though transpiling is an option).
Although it is a bit dated, If you're not trying to use modern web features, I think you'll agree that it is very functional and usable.
Edit
I forgot to mention, but HTAs have to be saved with the .hta file extension for mshta.exe to be registered as their file type handler. Which is needed so that you can double click it in windows explorer to open it easily.

Introduction to HTML Applications on MSDN
HTML Applications reference on MSDN
I think it's important to clarify the difference between server and client in this context.
Client/server is a program relationship in which one program (the client) requests a service or resource from another program (the server).
Source: http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com/definition/client-server
I'm not sure you'll find too many advanced applications that don't have at least one server/client relationship. It is somewhat misleading to ask to achieve this without any server, because any time your program speaks to another program, it is a client/server relationship, with the requester being the client and the response coming from the server. This is even if you are working locally. When you want to do something outside of the scope of the browser, you need a hook in a server.
Now, that does not mean you can't achieve this without a server-side specific language. For example, this solution uses NodeJS for the server. WinJS has WinJS.xhr, which uses XmlHttpRequest to serve data to the server.
AJAX seeks to offer the same sort of functions. The point here is that whether you have a program or there is some sort of hook pre-built, when you issue a command like "save file" and the file actually gets saved, there is a program on the other side that is parsing it, whether it's a server-side language or something else, meaning you can't possibly have something like this function without a server to receive the request.
