#so i type all the html directly into my main document

[wolfjackle-creates]

In celebration of my new writing sideblog, I decided to share a snippet of the expanded version of my first prompt fill. Original can be found here. Brief synopsis: Tim and Danny became online friends when they were both neglected and lonely ten/eleven-year-olds. Before Robin and before Phantom. They have been fully open with each other since they first met and that doesn't change, even after it probably should. (This segment is a chat fic.)

Prompt from @gremlin-bot

IKnowYourSecrets = Tim's username

-xXPolarisXx- = Danny's username

Typos in chat are intentional.

Edit: I don't know why the color text is being weird. Each time I get everything to work, new random letters are black.

Edit 2: formatting finally fixed. That took way too long.

-----

Danny had been playing mindlessly when he got a message from Secrets.

IKnowYourSecrets: Thank god your on

That was odd. Secrets was always laid back and chill.

-xXPolarisXx-: Secrets? Whats up

IKnowYourSecrets: something big has happened IKnowYourSecrets: like top secret big IKnowYourSecrets: and I need advice IKnowYourSecrets: ive set up a private chat IKnowYourSecrets: one that cant be hacked so easily

-xXPolarisXx-: dude youre freaking me out -xXPolarisXx-: whats going on?

IKnowYourSecrets: :sends link: IKnowYourSecrets: not here. Ill explain

Danny clicked the link and put in his username when prompted. He had never even seen this chat room server before. Not that he spent a lot of time on chat rooms. He preferred in-game chats.

-xXPolarisXx-: ok dude spill -xXPolarisXx-: wth is going on

IKnowYourSecrets: I know who Batman is

“What!” Danny couldn’t hold back the shout. He started typing a reply, deleted, started typing again.

“Danny?” asked Jazz from the kitchen table where she was doing her homework. “Everything ok?”

He waved his hand at her. “Yeah! Everything is fine! My friend and I were just killed by something I didn’t even know could be dangerous.”

“Don’t play too long. You still have homework.”

“I know! I’ll be good.”

-xXPolarisXx-: good one secrets -xXPolarisXx-: you got me for a minute

IKnowYourSecrets: :image attachment: IKnowYourSecrets: :image attachment: IKnowYourSecrets: :news link: IKnowYourSecrets: :news link: IKnowYourSecrets: :image attachment:

The links and pictures started coming through even faster. The first was a picture of a family of acrobats and one of the links was to the story about how the parents died in an accident while performing.

The next link was about Bruce Wayne adopting a child followed by one only a few months later discussing Batman’s new side kick, Robin. Then a picture of the Graysons’ son in his circus costume next to a picture of the first Robin. Which were entirely too similar.

“Holy…” whispered Danny. But the links and images were still coming.

Robin stopped being spotted when Dick Grayson moved out. And not much later Nightwing appeared. And then there was a new Robin and a new adoption. And then Jason Todd-Wayne died and Robin disappeared.

-xXPolarisXx-: what. The fuck -xXPolarisXx-: why are you even looking into this -xXPolarisXx-: Secrets! ????

IKnowYourSecrets: your a real friend, right? IKnowYourSecrets: I mean weve known each other for like 2 years now IKnowYourSecrets: no catfisher’d stick around this long

-xXPolarisXx-: course I’m real -xXPolarisXx-: though thats also what a catfisherd say

IKnowYourSecrets: I live in gotham IKnowYourSecrets: Batmans changed since Robin IKnowYourSecrets: Since Jason died IKnowYourSecrets: he needs a robin I think IKnowYourSecrets: hes mean and harsh and people dont feel safe

-xXPolarisXx-: … -xXPolarisXx-: youre planning something

IKnowYourSecrets: help me figure out how to convince dick to go back to being robin IKnowYourSecrets: I think they had a fight IKnowYourSecrets: from what i can find online their last several meetings have ended in fights

Danny stared at his screen, mouth open. Secrets couldn’t be serious. This was too much. But he knew his friend. He might joke during a gaming battle, but he’d never joke about this. Not to Danny, or well, Polaris.

-xXPolarisXx-: Youre gonna chase down Nightwing?? -xXPolarisXx-: isnt he only out at night??? -xXPolarisXx-: dude youre gonna get yourself killed -xXPolarisXx-: how’ll you even find him? -xXPolarisXx-: do NOT tell him you know his secret identity -xXPolarisXx-: what do vigilantes do to ppl who learn their identities?

Danny watched as the dots appeared to indicate Secrets was typing. They stopped. Picked up again.

IKnowYourSecrets: awww IKnowYourSecrets: you like me ❤ IKnowYourSecrets: im not gonna die! IKnowYourSecrets: NIGHTWING will be there IKnowYourSecrets: and I can find him bc I know his patrol routes IKnowYourSecrets: easy peasy IKnowYourSecrets: im going tonight IKnowYourSecrets: just need to figure out what to say

-xXPolarisXx-: dude really??? -xXPolarisXx-: do you even know why they fought?

IKnowYourSecrets: Gotham needs batman IKnowYourSecrets: and batman needs robin IKnowYourSecrets: hes a hero he should want to help

-xXPolarisXx-: Well start with that, then -xXPolarisXx-: if youre going to be an idiot -xXPolarisXx-: and go out in gotham at night -xXPolarisXx-: tell nightwing youre worried about batman

IKnowYourSecrets: worried about nightwing as well IKnowYourSecrets: hes not as bad IKnowYourSecrets: but its clear something is wrong

-xXPolarisXx-: im just a kid from a small town -xXPolarisXx-: how am I supposed to know how to talk to superheroes?

IKnowYourSecrets: they aren’t superheroes IKnowYourSecrets: no powers

-xXPolarisXx-: not the point -xXPolarisXx-: I guess -xXPolarisXx-: start by asking how hes doing -xXPolarisXx-: and how batmans doing -xXPolarisXx-: and say youre sorry about robins death -xXPolarisXx-: but most importan STAY SAFE -xXPolarisXx-: i dont even know your name to follow any news stories

IKnowYourSecrets: its Tim if you wanna know

-xXPolarisXx-: mines Danny -xXPolarisXx-: idk why but Tim fits you

IKnowYourSecrets: dont use it on public forums IKnowYourSecrets: but were safe here IKnowYourSecrets: Danny. I like it IKnowYourSecrets: thanks for the advice!!! IKnowYourSecrets: im gonna use it IKnowYourSecrets: ttyl IKnowYourSecrets: gonna track down dick and talk to him IKnowYourSecrets: he usually starts patroling in like an hour and a half IKnowYourSecrets: and it’ll take me about that long to get to bludhaven

-xXPolarisXx-: lemme know what happens -xXPolarisXx-: im gonna check this chat and the game any chance I have at the computer

IKnowYourSecrets: will do IKnowYourSecrets: by danny

-xXPolarisXx-: stay safe tim

Danny stared at the chat box as Secrets, as Tim signed out. What. The. Hell.

“You all right there, Danny?” Jazz was looking at him from their kitchen table and Danny quickly closed out of the chatroom. No one could be allowed to see that information.

“Yeah, course. Just talking with my online friend Secrets.” Whose name he now knew. “He had to go, though. So I guess I’ll start my homework.”

“Were you two playing that game you like?”

He couldn’t tell the truth, so he decided to lie. “Yeah. We’re hoping to beat this boss so we can get a rune stone that’ll let us craft this super awesome weapon! Then we might stand a chance in the arena.”

Jazz smiled at him. “I’m sure you two’ll get it. What’s this arena?”

Danny described the game on autopilot as pulled out his backpack and books. Holy hell, he knew Batman’s identity.

A Personal Breakdown and Comparison of the Big Three of Fanfiction: Archive of Our Own, FanFiction.Net, and Wattpad

Considering the whole chaos with AO3 that happened recently, I wanted to write about this again since it's been on my to-do list. Disclaimer, I am trying to be objective, but some factors may still appear as personal opinions on the matter, so keep that in mind. This is a long one, so be prepared for an extensive read, I still tried to be concise but thorough. Experts on these sites, feel free to step in and offer your expertise as well on here. Also do correct me on any potential mistakes, this was a long one...

Archive of Our Own:

Pros:

Easy User Interface

Tagging system/fic filter system

Various options for site customization

Search by tag system, addition of major warning tags

Html support, picture and audio integration options

Copy and paste function

Zero advertisement

Engaging comment sections

Friendly UI, writer and reader friendly.

Has function to download fics for offline reading (formats: AWZ3, MOBI, PDF, EPUB, HTML)

Cons:

Tags can get cluttered

Search Bar doesn't work as well as search by tag filter

Rusty crossover format

Rusty character/relationship involvement sorting

Cannot upload documents

No personal DM function.

Can take awhile sorting through tags depending...

Archive of Our Own (AO3) has been my personal favorite of these websites. I've been using it for several years and despite dabbling in various other sites, this one is still my preference.

To start off strong, the pros for AO3 (obvious or not) is the interface. I personally find it extremely easy to use and all the options given are extremely nice for writers and readers alike. For writers, you can give yourself pseuds to help categorize your own fics, sort by the fandoms you write, add tags, allow co-writers, moderate and respond to comments, mass edit stories, and so on. While the site doesn't seem to have an option to upload a document, it does have options to include pictures, audio, and various other media, including links to other stories or videos. It also allows authors to directly respond to comments on their fics and allow for more discussion and engagement in the story (or fandom) between authors and readers (don't be afraid to leave comments!)

In terms of being a reader (and writer) one of my favorite functions by far is the bookmark, history, and subscribe functions. They are what they say, bookmarks can be a public or private tab that are various favorite fics you wanted to save for later or keep note of and not want to search for it again. History is a list of all the fics you've clicked on and it's private solely to you, no one can see your fic history, so if you don't want to bookmark, but remembered something you read, you can look for it in your history. Subscriptions are also a favorite if you don't want too many tabs, you subscribe to a story and you'll get an email every time that fic is updated with a new chapter. Additionally, fics can be downloaded for offline reading (most popular format it seems are epub and pdf).

Now then, onto the main event, tags. If there's one thing AO3 is known for, it's tags. All sorts of them.

The pros of the tags: easy filtering, searching, and organizing.

The best part about AO3 tags is how easy to filter fics are.

It's part of a writer's duty to tag what they have in their stories (and at least tag what we think is relevant if we have trouble thinking of specifics) and most uphold this duty, even at the most basic forms of relevant characters or themes or warnings.

AO3 has an extremely well made filter system (in my opinion), and I've been making good use of it in recent days. If you want stories with a specific character or genre, or theme, use the "Include" function and type in those relevant tags.

If you want to exclude fics specifically, you can "Exclude" the relevant tags and the system should exclude all works with those tags, ratings, or themes, in them from your search. If there is an issue with it, my only gripe is that there aren't any "filter preferences/presets" for the site. By that I mean if you click on a new character tag, you need to re add all of your filters to get your specific stories again unless you're well adept at using the back button (which honestly most people are adept at) and re-organizing your filters there, but it's an extremely minor issue that doesn't really affect the experience.

Now then, the cons of the site. There aren't many, but there are a few. Which again, involves the tags. AO3's extensive list of relevant tags for various fandoms is a blessing as it is a curse. One such factor is the idea of crossovers. Crossovers may be easy for other series, but for series that have various media forms for the same fandom, they end up having different fandom tags.

For example, my fic "Scarlet Eyes in the Academy" had a total of 5 fandom tags, even though it's only a crossover between two series. This is because both have different media that have their own tags, My Next Life as a Villainess (Anime)/(Light Novel)/(Manga), and Moriarty the Patriot (Anime)/(Manga)

The reason why a lot of authors tag all various media forms for a series is simply so the most people can see it, regardless of which medium tag they defaulted to. Especially if the mediums don't have many differences to the series.

I can understand why some series need separate tags to differentiate the medium, but in the long run (especially if the medium doesn't have many unique changes to the canon), it's various tags for the same series and since linking more than one fandom tags will equate to a crossover, trying to find an actual crossover fic is a challenge (some fandoms don't really apply since they don't have multiple tags, such as Genshin Impact and Red vs Blue).

On another point, which is mainly the character tags. This is a common issue I see from time to time, but like the crossover aspect, is a small issue compared to the pros of the site. The thing with the character tags (or relationship tags) is that writers can add them, even if the story is not focusing on them. They appear in the story, but how much focus is on that character/relationship is in the eyes of the beholder (at the whim of a writer). It's not a major issue, but one that I see from time to time when comparing/analyzing fic sites.

But if there's a plus to the character tags, it helps filter through the fandom medium tags. As it will link all the fics that have the character regardless of fandom tags.

Other Notes: unlike other sites, AO3 doesn't have direct DMs and is unable to do document uploads, but even without those two things, it's a wonderful site for fanfiction. It also allows fic downloading for offline reading (just don't do any fic reposting without author's consent, that's just rude).

In conclusion: AO3 has a lot of benefits and has a relatively friendly UI for writers and readers alike. The tag system overall is extremely well done to help narrow down your fic search. I consider it to be the best of the three. The only downside is that it's not the best when looking for crossovers and fics for specific characters, themes, or pairings can get lost among the tags. There are also many guides available on this site in regards to the many functions of AO3.

Fanfiction.net :

This one, I think, sparks a certain level of nostalgia in many of us (especially those a bit younger in age). It was one of the first fanfiction sites to be made "mainstream" (i.e. the most prevalent option when fanfiction is searched for). But it has seen better days…

Pros:

Private DMs

Document uploads

Major character tags

Main genre tags

Easy crossover functionality

Good app, easy UI.

Cons:

Annoying/Invasive ad placement

No option for warning tags

Cannot interact openly with comments

No easy pic support (if any, for inside the fic itself)

Fics can be easily reported even for small reasons

The copy and paste function is extremely broken.

Okay, once again, starting strong with the pros. Ff.net has been a site that is prevalent for older fandoms. It has a nice filter system to go by genre, characters, and ratings and the UI is quite easy to use (the more nuanced filter system also makes it easier for searching compared to AO3's more… fic tag cocktail mixing experience). The site allows for uploading word documents to upload fics (which is a double edge sword as their copy and paste function is extremely wonky and broken last I checked). It also allows for checking traffic on a fic, which I find is a very fun statistic to look at every now and then.

It also allows for private DMs within the site itself so if authors want to talk, there's no need to rely on an external DM site/application (Discord, Tumblr, Reddit, etc).

The biggest pro for FF.net is it's crossover archive (specifically when you go into a ff.net fandom archive and click on crossovers). It sorts out all the crossover fandoms by fic count and it is easy to look for a specific fandom crossover if it exists.

I think that roughly covers all the pros, now, the cons. The main issue I have with FF.net is… the ad placements.

If I could include the horrified duh duh duuuuh! Sound effect I would.

On mobile it's even worse, anyone recall the days when the ads were those odd little boxes next to the review box at the bottom of the chapter? I miss those days.

However, while the ads have been an issue, I think the biggest issue is with how content is moderated on the site and reporting works. I personally haven't had bad experiences with the site, but I've seen other authors apparently get their fics taken off the site due to reports (despite the fact the works themselves not having anything wrong). The famous RWBY reacts to RvB fic (React Watch Believe Yikes) was taken down because of copyright reasons despite the fact they clearly stated that they got permission to use the RvB transcripts in the fic (that fic is now on AO3). I haven't heard much beyond that, so do fill in what I missed if this issue had gotten worse or better over the years.

The other con for FF.net is interaction, while the site allows for private DMs, it doesn't allow public interaction with comments. Authors can still reply, but it's then taken into a private DM chain specifically between the author and the specific commenter. Perhaps it's a minor issue, but it's one that should be brought up.

And also, last I checked, the DMs are supposed to send you an email notification everytime someone DMs you, but it's been wonky for awhile and straight up broken at points.

And lastly, while the more succinct filter system is fine, it does so at the consequence of not letting additional tags be shown. So ratings and genre can be filtered, but nothing more. It doesn't help that the summary boxes are short either, so authors either have to make shorter summaries to put important warnings, or omit the warnings so the full summary can be in place. I also believe this lack of tagging is another reason why reporting fics seems to be an issue there.

In conclusion, FF.net is a fine site, it's easy to use, perfect for crossovers, allows DMs and has fun statistics. However, you should probably keep anything "explicit" pretty mild, or proceed with caution. I learned the terms lemons and limes from somewhere after all.

Wattpad:

Cracks knuckles, okay, this one. I used this one the least, but I do have some thoughts on it (Wattpad experts, feel free to add onto this if you'd like).

Pros:

Can comment on specific paragraphs

Easy picture integration

Decent chapter/book format

Decent story saving/favorite book

Okay UI

Cons:

Bad tag filters

Hard search function

Ads can be a bit annoying.

As you can see, I have an issue when it comes to filtering. Both Ao3 and FF.net have good filtering/tagging systems. While Wattpad does have a filter/tag system, I think it leaves a lot to be desired.

Okay, once again, starting with the pros. I think my favorite feature when it comes to Wattpad is the option to comment on specific paragraphs rather than just the whole chapter/story. I dunno, I find it fun as a reader (and as a writer) to see if people had specific thoughts on specific passages.

Secondly, the writer UI is decent and quite friendly once you get the hang of it. You can start a "book" and update it as you see fit. Although the way to add/update/edit an ongoing book is a bit more cumbersome than AO3 or FF.net…

Lastly, the picture integration for Wattpad is pretty nice, allowing easy insertion of images directly into the passage or on a "chapter banner" at the beginning of the chapter.

That's pretty much it for the major pros, and onto the cons. Which is surprisingly not many (as least that I've experienced), but those few in number make up for a lot in experience.

So, the cons, which is once again, the tagging. It always rolls back to that aspect/function. The tagging for Wattpad is honestly quite messy. Not only can several tags for the same thing exist, but they exist because the tags themselves (like in Tumblr) become different tags depending on how they're formatted (ex. "xreader", "x reader", "characterxreader", are three separate tags), so filtering out tags can be quite an issue. Not to mention more work on the author's part to add literally every iteration of a tag/phrase/pairing to make sure it appears where it's supposed to appear.

The other issue from what I can see rn actually is that a guest user (someone not logged into an account) cannot do manual searches on the site, at least on mobile. You can only search externally on the web, which is technically a minor issue, but an issue nonetheless.

Additionally, readers can't see all the relevant tags when browsing through stories until they click on it and see the summary. Again, a minor issue, but an issue all the same that should be brought up.

Also, from what I heard, there's supposedly paywalls on the site now. Looking into it, Wattpad does seem to have a paid subscription service. One feature of that service is "paid stories". I assume this only attributes to original works (since fanfiction will be in hot water otherwise). Additionally, the paid subscription gives access to offline downloading and site customization (for which AO3 has for free), it also says it offers options for "early access to subscribers" which I assume again is for original stories and functions like a creator's Patreon account. The subscription also allows for ad free viewing of stories.

In conclusion, Wattpad isn't nearly as chaotic as I last remember, but it still seems leagues behind the tagging and UI of AO3 and FF.net. The writer's UI for posting stories is fine and the picture integration in combination with paragraph comments is a fun feature. The fact it's asking for subscriptions for functions that the other two provide also knocks it down a peg. It's a fine site, but definitely not the most ideal for fanfiction. Especially as it seems to shift more to original stories than fanfiction. Finally, unlike AO3 and FF.net, Wattpad doesn't really have anything exclusive to its site that puts it above the rest (unless you count the comment on specific paragraphs bit).  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In conclusion: Everyone has their favorite sites for fanfiction. All of them have their pros and cons and for which one is "the best" it boils down to what you're looking for in your fanfiction stories.

Archive of Our Own: Seems to be the mainstay for newer fandoms, perfect for creating your own fic viewing experiences and filtering, allows for website customization skins, more interaction between author and readers, allows fic downloads for offline reading.  

Fanfiction.Net: The home to older fandoms, good for a more casual browse, allows private DMs, perfect for looking for crossovers, just beware of the ads.

Wattpad: An okay site, interface takes a bit getting used to, but filtering is not as good as the others, ads are present but not as much as FF.net, requires subscription to remove ads and allow customization. It also seems more curated to original works than fanfics.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And that concludes my analysis of what I consider "The Big Three" of the fanfiction world. Shall I do other sites as well? Did this help in regards to looking at sites? Experts in any of the three mentioned, do add your own notes to correct or add to any of the points I made. I primarily use AO3 so I may have missed some things for the other two.

Either way, I hope you enjoyed this surprisingly long essay. Hope you enjoyed ;)

[randum-famdoms]

Finally caving and no longer using Google docs (mostly, probably will still copy and paste the first drafts of chapters in there for my beta reader to go over since that’s what she has)

Gonna start writing via ellipsus now (@ellipsus-writes is their tumblr account, if you wanna check it out). The following is gonna basically just me squeeing and how amazing this thing is, as well as a few cons I’ve noticed, and it’s long. So I’m adding a cut for people who don’t care.

I’m so fucking excited to no longer have to manually add in all the html in the ao3 text editor, you have no fucking idea. That step alone takes hours, double that if something glitches. And I can still write on my phone!!!!!

First downside I’ve noticed so far is that it doesn’t include my preferred font for writing (trebuchet ms if anyone is curious). It DOES have a comic sans sibling tho, which I can use for now. If it annoys me over time then I guess I’ll put up with Inter, even tho I hate most mono fonts. And serif fonts. I’m really picky. Serif fonts me flashbacks to grade school 5 paragraph essays in mla style. And mono fonts just… idk they look weird. Not creative at all. Very corporate.

Another bonus I’ve noticed: it includes open dyslexic as a font!!! I don’t personally need it, but having that accessibility is amazing. HUGE props to the creators.

Also love the interface. Very nice, user friendly, intuitive, looks good, 10/10.

There’s a light and dark mode choice on install, and I chose dark of course.

The editor settings are cool, allowing you to turn on and off different features like seeing other editiors’ cursors when typing, avatars when they’re viewing the document (tho it says draft there, maybe it doesn’t work in the main doc and only in drafts? If so, that’s odd), certain formatting things like dashes combining into an emdash, Ellipses (idk what that’s supposed to mean since there’s no elaboration), quotes (again no elaboration), markdown shortcuts (idk what those are, maybe it’s about coding?), viewing the word count automatically in the top bar, the desktop formatting bar, and the theme (light vs dark).

AND STRIKETRHOUGH IS RIGHT THERE! Right next to bold italic and underline. I always forgot the key shortcut to it in Google docs (why is it three keys???? WHY???? It’s so inconvenient!) and you gotta navigate through like three drop downs to reach it in the menu bar. This is so SO much simpler. I use strike through all the time to denote thoughts the pov character is repressing, and considering Akechi is a pov character that’s pretty damn often.

Omg and having an easy button so see all the keyboard shortcuts???? I love the creators so much????? There’s so many I would never have known otherwise, and they’re all so useful!!!! Aaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!

I love the drafts feature, it’s so nice having my notes and outlines and such all right there.

I do wish the spell check feature was better about recognising foreign names, but since I can just turn it on and off I don’t have to deal with constant red lines like with Google! I do wish there was a way to add words to the program’s dictionary, so that it doesn’t flag names, abbreviations, and slang. (For example, it doesn’t like fic, fanfic, lol, dashes like -- or - for some reason, or really any of the character names. the list goes on.) and I can’t just add in Japanese to the accepted languages, because I’d have to choose either that or English and then every single other word would be wrong. It does give options for which regional English variant you want, so I can choose British English! Which is nice. Google does it too, but you never know with beta versions of programs.

You can choose whether text is normal, a header (which subsets if headers), a caption, a quote, etc. I like that, since it’s directly tied to the outline and the different headers show up in there tree-style, but you can’t just have some text within a category be different. For example, say you want some of your paragraph text to be one font and then a different section of paragraph text to be another. You can’t do that.

I also haven’t been able to find a way to change text colour, or to highlight text. Which is annoying. I use highlighting text a lot when editing, so loosing that is a problem. Not the end of the world, but definitely one of my biggest gripes with Ellipsus so far.

There is a commenting system, but it ONLY works in drafts. I do not like that. In fact, I kinda hate it. A lot. And I definitely prefer the way comments work in Google docs, at least its desktop version, where they show up right next to the text instead of you having to click on the text with a comment to see that comment. At the very least, you can see all the comments in order of where the text is in the draft, with any replies, all in one place in the comments tab. However, you can’t just click away from the text to leave that tab. You gotta manually navigate back to where you were in the menu.

So yeah the comment feature kinda sucks.

There is also a chat feature? Idk how to properly review it, since rn I don’t have anyone else to chat with in ellipsus. You can use it in non-drafts, but I don’t think you can use it to point out specific text.

You can see word count!!!! And an estimate for how long it would take to read the whole thing! That’s so useful! And cool! You can also highlight (with a cursor, not actual highlight) sections of text and it will show that section’s word count, but NOT its reading time.

The version history feature is a bit slow, but it functions well. Not too worried about it. You can restore old versions as a new draft, though, which is pretty neat.

You can also download the document as a pdf, markdown, share it, and copy it as html, markdown, and rich text, but best of all, oooooo best of all, you can export DIRECTLY to ao3! And it includes all the html in the document!!!! I never have to manually code in html again!!!!! There are no words to encapsulate just how fucking excited about that I am. None. I am vibrating. I’m ahdnfbshsbdbfbcbhcbcnnsdbdbxnxbdmsnddbbdndbdbdbAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

best. Feature. Ever. More than makes up for all the things I don’t like. Amazing. Wonderful. 10/10. Would die for that.

As of right now, I think that’s everything. Overall, I’d rate ellipsus an 8.5/10, compared to Google docs’s 7/10. I really love what they’ve done so far, but there’s some things they could really improve on.

Overall cons:

I really wish you could comment in the main document, it’s a big deal to me. I wish you could see comments by the text at all times, instead of just in the comments tab. I wish there were more font choices, the current pickings are slim at best. I wish you could change the font of specific sections instead of everything under that text category. I wish you could highlight things (even better if you could have multiple highlight colours). I wish you could change font colour. I wish you could add words to a dictionary so they aren’t flagged by spell check.

However, the vast majority of things ellipsus is doing are great. There are a ton of pros to this program, and it’s still in beta. There’s room for improvement, but that’s the whole point of a beta release. Everything I don’t like are things I can live with and work around, too. That’s better than a lot of completely finished games and programs I’ve come across. And it’s free!!! I’m really excited to see how Ellipsus develops, and definitely recommend it to any writers out there - especially anyone who writes for ao3. Seriously, the export to ao3 feature practically sells this thing by itself.

Demystifying Screen Readers: Accessible Forms & Best Practices

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/demystifying-screen-readers-accessible-forms-best-practices/

Demystifying Screen Readers: Accessible Forms & Best Practices

This is the 3rd post in a small series we are doing on form accessibility. If you missed the 2nd post, check out Managing User Focus with :focus-visible. In this post we are going to look at using a screen reader when navigating a form, and also some best practices.

What is a Screen Reader?

You may have heard the term “screen reader” as you have been moving around the web. You might even be using a screen reader at this moment to run manual accessibility tests on the experiences you are building. A screen reader is a type of AT or assistive technology.

A screen reader converts digital text into synthesized speech or Braille output, commonly seen with a Braille reader.

In this example, I will be using Mac VO. Mac VO (VoiceOver) is built-in to all Mac devices; iOS, iPadOS, and macOS systems. Depending on the type of device you are running macOS on, opening VO could differ. The Macbook Pro that is running VO I am writing this on doesn’t have the touch bar, so I will be using the shortcut keys according to the hardware.

Spinning Up VO on macOS

If you are using an updated Macbook Pro, the keyboard on your machine will look something like the image below.

You will start by holding down the cmd key and then pressing the Touch ID three times quickly.

If you are on a MBP (MacBook Pro) with a TouchBar, you will use the shortcut cmd+fn+f5 to turn on VO. If you are using a traditional keyboard with your desktop or laptop, the keys should be the same or you will have to toggle VO on in the Accessibility settings.. Once VO is turned on, you will be greeted with this dialog along with a vocalized introduction to VO.

If you click the “Use VoiceOver” button you are well on your way to using VO to test your websites and apps. One thing to keep in mind is that VO is optimized for use with Safari. That being said, make sure when you are running your screen reader test that Safari is the browser you are using. That goes for the iPhone and iPad as well.

There are two main ways you can use VO from the start. The way I personally use it is by navigating to a website and using a combination of the tab, control, option, shift and arrow keys, I can navigate through the experience efficiently with these keys alone.

Another common way to navigate the experience is by using the VoiceOver Rotor. The Rotor is a feature designed to navigate directly to where you want to be in the experience. By using the Rotor, you eliminate having to traverse through the whole site, think of it as a “Choose Your Own Adventure”.

Modifier Keys

Modifier keys are the way you use the different features in VO. The default modifier key or VO is control + option but you can change it to caps lock or choose both options to use interchangeably.

Using the Rotor

In order to use the Rotor you have to use a combination of your modifier key(s) and the letter “U”. For me, my modifier key is caps lock. I press caps lock + U and the Rotor spins up for me. Once the Rotor comes up I can navigate to any part of the experience that I want using the left and right arrows.

Using the Rotor in VoiceOver

Navigating By Heading Level

Another neat way to navigate the experience is by heading level. If you use the combination of your modifier keys + cmd + H you can traverse the document structure based on heading levels. You can also move back up the document by pressing shift in the sequence like so, modifier keys + shift + cmd + H.

Using the Heading Level Shortcut with VoiceOver

History & Best Practices

Forms are one of the most powerful native elements we have in HTML. Whether you are searching for something on a page, submitting a form to purchase something or submit a survey. Forms are a cornerstone of the web, and were a catalyst that introduced interactivity to our experiences.

The history of the web form dates back to September 1995 when it was introduced in the HTML 2.0 spec. Some say the good ole days of the web, at least I say that. Stephanie Stimac wrote an awesome article on Smashing Magazine titled, “Standardizing Select And Beyond: The Past, Present And Future Of Native HTML Form Controls”.

The following are 5 best practices to follow when building an accessible form for the web.

Make sure that you are using a form element. Forms are accessible by default and should be used over div’s at all times.

<form> <!-- Form controls are nested here. --> </form>

Be sure to use the for and id attributes on label’s and input’s so that they are linked. This way, if you click/tap the label, focus will shift to the input and you can start typing.

<label for="name">Name:</label> <input type="text" id="name" name="name" required aria-required/>

If a field is required in order for the form to be complete, use the required attribute and the aria-required  attribute. These will restrict the form from being submitted. The aria-required attribute explicitly tells the assistive tech that the field is required.

<input type="text" id="name" name="name" required aria-required/>

Use the, :focus, :focus-within and :focus-visible CSS pseudo classes to manage and customize how a user receives focus.

form:focus-within background-color: #cfffcf; input:focus-within border: 10px solid #000000; input:focus-visible, select:focus-visible, textarea:focus-visible outline: 2px solid crimson; border-radius: 3px;

A button is used to invoke an action, like submitting a form. Use it! Don’t create buttons using div’s. A div by definition is a divider. It has no inherent accessibility properties.

Screen Reader Software

Below is a list of various types of screen reader software you can use on your given operating system. If a Mac is not your machine of choice, there are options out there for Windows and Linux, as well as for Android devices.

NVDA

NVDA is a screen reader from NV Access. It is currently only supported on PC’s running Microsoft Windows 7 SP1 and later. For more access, check out the NVDA version 2024.1 download page on the NV Access website!

JAWS

“We need a better screen reader”

– Anonymous

If you understood the reference above, you are in good company. According to the JAWS website, this is what it is in a nutshell:

“JAWS, Job Access With Speech, is the world’s most popular screen reader, developed for computer users whose vision loss prevents them from seeing screen content or navigating with a mouse. JAWS provides speech and Braille output for the most popular computer applications on your PC. You will be able to navigate the Internet, write a document, read an email and create presentations from your office, remote desktop, or from home.”

JAWS website

Check out JAWS for yourself and if that solution fits your needs, definitely give it a shot!

Narrator

Narrator is a built-in screen reader solution that ships with WIndows 11. If you choose to use this as your screen reader of choice, the link below is for support documentation on its usage.

Complete guide to Narrator

Orca

Orca is a screen reader that can be used on different Linux distributions running GNOME.

“Orca is a free, open source, flexible, and extensible screen reader that provides access to the graphical desktop via speech and refreshable braille.

Orca works with applications and toolkits that support the Assistive Technology Service Provider Interface (AT-SPI), which is the primary assistive technology infrastructure for Linux and Solaris. Applications and toolkits supporting the AT-SPI include the GNOME Gtk+ toolkit, the Java platform’s Swing toolkit, LibreOffice, Gecko, and WebKitGtk. AT-SPI support for the KDE Qt toolkit is being pursued.”

Orca Website

TalkBack

Google TalkBack is the screen reader that is used on Android devices. For more information on turning it on and using it, check out this article on the Android Accessibility Support Site.

Browser Support

If you are looking for actual browser support for HTML elements and ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Application) attributes, I suggest caniuse.com for HTML and Accessibility Support for ARIA to get the latest 4-1-1 on browser support. Remember, if the browser doesn’t support the tech, chances are the screen reader won’t either.

DigitalA11Y can help summarize browser and screen reader info with their article,  Screen Readers and Browsers! Which is the Best Combination for Accessibility Testing?

How To Make Your Own Website and Monetize it?

By following up with me in less than twenty-four hours, you will be ready to launch a Website that will undoubtedly earn you thousands of dollars every month! How to generate the money? Well, the website that we make will be offering SAAS service.

What is a SAAS service?

A SAAS (Software As A Service) service is essentially an online software or service that you pay to use.

For example, Mailchimp.com, which is a SAAS service, provides email marketing services that you pay for.

A SAAS service is anything you pay for to get an online service.

Now you can be the owner of a SAAS service, you will have your own Website, and people will subscribe to your service and pay you monthly recurring payments.

Let’s say you have 100 customers who use your SAAS service, and your service costs about $10 a month; you’d make $1000 per month!

All you have to do is sit at home and watch your passive income develop on your computer screen. It’s a fantastic and easy way to earn money.

How to get a SAAS service?

“How can I get my own SAAS service or software?” you might be wondering. The good news is that you don’t have to create one, learn to program, or even employ a programmer to do so.

You can simply buy it Online for $40–$60. You can buy software from a website called codecanyon

You can simply visit the website, click on the php scripts and search for SAAS and choose what kind of SAAS service that you preferred.

There are several types of SAAS applications available for purchase. Discount networks, accounting and billing software, email marketing systems, and employee management software are only a few examples. Take your time browsing the services and choose the one you like best, the one that fits you and you feel that you can be successful with.

Hosting Your Service

After you’ve created your SAAS service, the next move is to host it and make it public. To host it online, you’ll need a domain name and a server.

Now it is sounds hard since you don’t have any technical background in this term. Don’t worry, it is actually a simple and easy steps.

First you need a VPS server, you can visit and buy a cheap one from Bluehost. its only $3,95 permonth with and they give you free domain for 1 year! Check the price below. Buy the “LAMP” administration.

So What is VPS server? We do what we call “online hosting” when we want to publish a PHP page, script, or some other web application. This basically means uploading the files and database to a public server so that it can be accessed over the internet. On simple word, the place where you put the file is from VPS server.

In this tutorial we will used the shared server from Bluehost. Shared server only means that your server will be host with others website.

Now everything is ready, the only things that matter is how to install it. Let get to it.

Getting Started

After having your own server and domain on Bluehost, you need to connect them. Your VPS Server can be accessed now your Bluehost profile, but of course, we don’t want to access our website though an IP! we want to use our domain name. So simply, we are going to map the domain name to our VPS IP, so then we access the VPS and the WordPress website through both the domain and the IP.

Configure your DNS Records

Simply open DNS management zone in your Domain Provider and edit the main A record.

Than we need to create MySQL database for the application. So Let’s Create one. Connect to your VPS server using any SSH client like putty. and Let’s start!

Just open Putty and enter the Server IP or Name, and Press Open. It will ask you to login, just enter “root” as the user, then enter your password which is sent to you by email.

Note: while typing the password, putty will now show it for security reasons, but It’s there, just type it!

What’s nice, is that we have MySQL installed already as part of the LAMP Stack, but we need to create a database and a user for out application.

Note: Every MySQL statement must end in a semi-colon (;)

To get started, log into the MySQL root (administrative) account by issuing this command:

mysql -u root -p

You will be prompted for the root password, just write or paste it and press Enter.

First, create a separate database that your PHP application will use. You can call this whatever you want, but we will be using TestDb in this guide to keep it simple. Create the database by running this command:

CREATE DATABASE TestDb DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci;

Next, we are going to create a separate MySQL user account that we will use exclusively to operate on our new database. Creating one-function databases and accounts is a good idea from a management and security standpoint. We will use the name DbUser in this guide. Feel free to change this if you’d like.

We are going to create this account, set a password, and grant access to the database we created. We can do this by typing the following command. Remember to choose a strong password here for your database user:

CREATE USER 'DbUser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'enter_a_custom_password_here';GRANT ALL ON TestDb.* TO 'DbUser'@'localhost';

You now have a database and user account, each made specifically for Your PHP application. We need to flush the privileges so that the current instance of MySQL knows about the recent changes we’ve made:

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Exit from it by typing :

EXIT;

Upload The Script Files To The Server.

To upload the files, you need an application called WinSCP.

It is a free tool and you can download it from here.

Connect to Your VPS Server using WinSCP, and Update the PHP Files to the server to this path: “/var/www/html”

In most cases, the files would be zipped, so we need to extract them.

Again to Putty SSH CLient and Let’s install the unzip utility using the following command:

sudo apt-get install unzip

Clear putty screen to make in clean using the following command:

clear

Change directory to /var/www/html using the following command:

cd /var/www/html

Unzip the “.zip” file using the following command:

unzip YOURFILENAME*.zip

*Note: the file name may be different in your case, so replace YOURFILENAME with your file name.

Now, Move the latest folder content to the upper directory so it can be accessed directly -> use WinSCP Just copy all the files inside “YOURFILENAME” folder and paste them directly in html folder.

Configure Apache to Publish PHP Website

Well Done, Now your files are uploaded and placed in the html folder, we just need to configure apache so we can our Publish PHP Website and access our script using our domain name. To do so, open WinSCP again and navigate to this directory: /etc/apache2/sites-available/

Now, create a new empty file and name it “yourdomain.conf” . You can replace “Scriptname” with any name you want

Open yourdomain.conf Then copy and paste the content below into the file and save.

<VirtualHost *:80>     ServerAdmin admin@YOUDOMAINNAME     DocumentRoot /var/www/html     ServerName YOUDOMAINNAME     ServerAlias YOUDOMAINNAME     <Directory /var/www/html/>        Options +FollowSymlinks        AllowOverride All        Require all granted     </Directory>     ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log     CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost>

Replace with your own domain, in my case its “YOURDOMAINNAME”

Enable your script configuration in apache and restart the service.

Now simply, run the following commands to finish the setup:

sudo a2ensite yourdomain.conf sudo a2enmod rewrite sudo systemctl restart apache2.service

ALMOST DONE!

Connect to MySQL Database.

Open your web browser now and navigate to your server name.

Continue the setup by entering the database info and your admin login information. In our example, the database name is TestDb and the user is DBUser with the password set.

That simple!

Setup cronjobs.What are cronjobs?

cron is a Linux utility which schedules a command or script on your server to run automatically at a specified time and date. A cron job is the scheduled task itself. Cron jobs can be very useful to automate repetitive tasks.

For example, you can set a cron job to delete temporary files every week to conserve your disk space. Some PHP web applicaitons, may require you to set up a cron job to perform certain functions.

Setup cronjobs.

To setup cronjobs, you need to add all required jobs to the server. This depends on your script, so if you bought a script from code canyon, the script owner should provide the cronjobs.

To do this, open WinSCP and got to /etc Open crontab file using the editor And paste all the jobs from your script to this folder. (cronjobs are listed in the app documentation)

Make sure each job is on a line and an empty line in the end.

Secure with a Free SSL.

SSL certificates are used within web servers to encrypt the traffic between the server and client, providing extra security for users accessing your application. Let’s Encrypt provides an easy way to obtain and install trusted certificates for free.

Connect to your Server using Putty SSH client. and Let’s Start!

Install the Let’s Encrypt Client

Let’s Encrypt certificates are fetched via client software running on your server. The official client is called Certbot.

First, add the repository to install Certbot:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot

You’ll need to press ENTER to accept.

Then, Update the package list to pick up the new repository’s package information:

sudo apt-get update

Install Certbot’s Apache package:

sudo apt install python-certbot-apache

Certbot is now ready to be used.

Set Up the SSL Certificate

Generating the SSL certificate for Apache using Certbot is quite straightforward. The client will automatically obtain and install a new SSL certificate that is valid for the domains provided as parameters.

Simply run the following command: (change the domain)

sudo certbot --apache -d YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME

You will be asked to provide an email address for lost key recovery and notices, and you will be able to choose between enabling both http and https access or forcing all requests to redirect to https. It is usually safest to require https, unless you have a specific need for unencrypted http traffic.

That’s it!

Test your website now and it should be SSL encrypted.

Virtual Sketchbook Section 3

Title: Flight into Egypt 

Artist: Luca Giordano 

Culture: Italian 

Medium: Oil on Canvas 

Dimensions: Image: 60 x 86 1/4 in. (152.4 x 219.1 cm) 

Credit Line: Bequest of John Ringling, 1936, SN 157

First of all, Luca Giordano was born in Naples, Italy, in 1634 and his father was the painter Antonio Giordano. Although there is limited information about Giordano’s life, it is known that he spent his entire life traveling to Rome, Florence, and Venice. His first artwork, St Luke Painting the Virgin, is documented for 1653, however, it is probable that he had begun his career years before then.

Giordano was from Italian decency and in 1650 he traveled to Rome, Florence, and Venice with his father. During his travels, he studied and drew artworks of High Renaissance masters, which included: Raphael, Pietro da Cortona’s, and Peter Paul Rubens. It is also known that he copied many techniques that he saw artists utilizing and it is even said that he trained with influential artists like Ribera. Giordano got married at the age of 24, with a 12-year-old Margherita Dardi and after he got married, he started dedicating his life to his art. In 1692, Giordano was invited to live with Charles II of Spain, and this allowed Giordano to paint in all types of styles. After the death of Charles II in 1700, he worked for private clients until he left for Naples in 1702.

Furthermore, the main individuals that are depicted in this painting are Virgen Mary, Jesus, and Joseph. The elements that are found in this painting are: emphasis, balance, unity, variety, and contrast. The viewer can quickly identify what the focal point is in this painting because the sun shines down directly on them. Additionally, the angels and the clouds in the background makes the focal point stand out to captivate our attention. The emphasis of this painting focuses on Mary, Jesus, and Joseph. Giordano created this emphasis on these three figures so that the viewer could perceive what they were going through at that moment. The viewer can perceive the concern and stress that Mary and Joseph were experiencing because of their facial expressions.

 This painting is balanced because of the angels that are depicted on the entire painting. Angels are known to be biblical because they portray the heavens, therefore, the angels add harmony because they are guiding the Jesus to safety. They also add unity because they can be seen as if they are comforting Mary and Joseph as they rush to get Jesus to Egypt. The proportion of the angels also create emphasis on Mary, Jesus, and Joseph.

Variety adds diversity to the artwork because of the colors Giordano used. The use of warm colors contrast to the blue robe Mary is wearing and the viewer can faintly the colors that surround the others. Giordano used this technique because the warm colors balance out the painting. Also, the use of warm colors display variety and unity because of the calmness the viewer receives from looking at it.

In addition, the story behind this artwork is based upon the Gospel of Matthew. The book in the New Testament, states that an angel appeared to Joseph in a dream warning him that King Herod would seek to kill Jesus. Herod would seek to kill Jesus because Maji came to Jerusalem asking King Herod where the king of the Jews was. In addition, when Herod realized that Maji had not brought Jesus back to Jerusalem, hence he killed every child under the age to two that lived in Bethlehem. I was raised as a Catholic, so this painting is intriguing to me. I admire this painting because when we are studying the bible, we have to use our imagination to understand the what the Gospels are saying. This painting allows me to see my faith on a canvas and be grateful for what I have.

This artwork forms part of the Renaissance movement. An artist who inspired Giordano was Jusepe Ribera. Many of Giordano’s artworks involved religious topics, so it can be predicted that he was a religious man. There are not many sources that state whether he was Catholic or Cristian but that is for the viewer to determine.

To conclude, the importance of this painting to society is that this painting helps us feel hope and gratitude toward Jesus and God. This artwork inspired me because I went through so much the summer of 2019, and the only thing that kept me going was art. When I went to the Ringling Museum, I immediately connected with this painting because even though Joseph did not see God, he trusted him. He did what he asked and that made me realize that God is always with me. Moreover, we can often forget that Jesus died for our sins, so that we could live. We also tend to forget that God is guiding us through our journey, no matter the situations that we face, we should know that we are not alone. Seeing these types of paintings should be a reminder to oneself that God is real and that we should have faith.

Best Video Background Plugins for WordPress

If you’ve been thinking of adding a video background to your WordPress site, here are the eight best plugins available at CodeCanyon.

WordPress

If you are serious about getting more people to talk and know about your business, it's high time that you get serious about video. In this tutorial, we will help you get started right away with a step-by-step guide to using the Easy Video Player script from CodeCanyon. You can use this JavaScript library to add videos to your webpages.

Why Use Easy Video Player?

You might be wondering why you should use Easy Video Player instead of a free alternative or any other paid script.

One of the biggest reasons to choose this player is that it is feature packed. First of all, it is responsive. This means that it will look nice of devices of all sizes. It has been optimized for playing videos on both mobile devices as well as desktops.

It has support for multiple video qualities so that users can switch between SD, HD or Full HD versions of a video similar to YouTube. You can also control the playback speed of the video at runtime. It is also possible to add subtitles for multiple languages to a single video. Users can then choose the subtitles they want to display at runtime.

You can also allow the viewers to download the video with an optional download button. It is possible to show the button either globally or on individual videos.

Easy Video Player can also play videos from a variety of sources. You can use it to play local videos, stream videos from a server or to embed YouTube or Vimeo videos.

You can monetize these videos using pre-roll, mid-roll or post-roll ads. It is also possible to add popup ads to the videos and control their show and hide time. Easy Video Player also allows you to show advertisements whenever users pause the video.

It is also possible to encrypt the video paths in order to make sure that users can't steal a video by simply crawling the page source. You can also password protect the videos in order to limit access to specific set of users.

The list of features does not end here. My suggestion would be that you visit the script description page in order to read about all the features of Easy Video Player.

What We'll Be Building

Once you have completed this tutorial, you will have a fully functional video player that supports annotations. The final version of the video player will look like the image below.

We will be using a video of a robin from Pixabay for this tutorial.

Getting Started

After reading that the Easy Video Player comes with so many features, you might think that it would be hard to configure or use. However, as you will see in the tutorial, getting up and running with the script is not complicated at all.

One thing that I should point out before we get started is that any local videos on your server that you play using the Easy Video Player should be located inside a folder titled content. This way you can be sure that all the features of the player will work as expected.

After you purchase the Easy Video Player from CodeCanyon, you will be able to download the script as well as the documentation. The documentation contains a lot of working examples that can be added directly to your website by simply changing the source path or URL for the videos. The fastest and easiest way for you to quickly embed videos in your webpage using this player is to use parts from the working examples themselves. Just make appropriate changes to suit your own needs.

The first step would be to include the CSS and JavaScript files in your webpage.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <title> Easy Video Player - TutsPlus Example </title> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="content/global.css"> <script type="text/javascript" src="java/FWDEVPlayer.js"></script> </head> <body> <!-- WE WILL ADD OUR VIDEO PLAYER HERE --> </body> </html>

By default, the player keeps CSS file in the content folder and JavaScript file in the java folder. If you change the location of these files, make sure that you update their path in the webpage as well.

Now, you have to specify a container for the video player. This container div will have a unique id which is passed to the constructor of Easy Video Player. You can set the CSS property margin to auto for this div in order to center it horizontally on the webpage but that is optional.

Add the following HTML inside the body of the webpage where you want the video player to appear.

<div id="topVideo"></div>

While it is not necessary, you can add some CSS in order to make the video player look even nicer or to position it properly on the webpage. Here is the CSS that we would use for this purpose.

body { background-color: #efefef; cursor: auto; } #topVideo { box-shadow: 0 0 20px #989898, 0 0 50px #b0b0b0; margin: 50px auto; }

Initializing the Video Player

Now, you simply need to initialize the Easy Video Player by passing a bunch of parameters to the constructor. These parameters control all aspects of the video player so you should read the documentation to understand how each of them works. In this tutorial, I will give you a brief overview of the options that we will modify in our own player.

This is the code that you have to put in your webpage for initializing the player. It might look very long and complicated but the parameters have self-explanatory names and they will have the same value from one player instance to another. Most of the times, you will be able to directly take the initialization parameters from the examples in documentation and make changes as needed.

<script type="text/javascript"> FWDEVPUtils.onReady(function(){ FWDEVPlayer.videoStartBehaviour = "pause"; new FWDEVPlayer({ //main settings instanceName:"player1", parentId:"topVideo", mainFolderPath:"content", initializeOnlyWhenVisible:"no", skinPath:"minimal_skin_white", displayType:"responsive", fillEntireVideoScreen:"no", playsinline:"yes", autoScale:"yes", openDownloadLinkOnMobile:"no", useVectorIcons:"no", useResumeOnPlay:"no", goFullScreenOnButtonPlay:"no", useHEXColorsForSkin:"no", normalHEXButtonsColor:"#FF0000", selectedHEXButtonsColor:"#FFFFFF", privateVideoPassword:"428c841430ea18a70f7b06525d4b748a", startAtTime:"", stopAtTime:"", startAtVideoSource:2, videoSource:[ {source:"content/videos/robin_sd.mp4", label:"small version"}, {source:"content/videos/robin_hd.mp4", label:"hd720"}, {source:"content/videos/robin_full_hd.mp4", label:"hd1080"} ], posterPath:"content/posters/robin-poster.png", showErrorInfo:"yes", fillEntireScreenWithPoster:"yes", disableDoubleClickFullscreen:"no", addKeyboardSupport:"yes", useChromeless:"no", showPreloader:"yes", preloaderColors:["#999999", "#FFFFFF"], autoPlay:"no", enableAutoplayOnMobile:"no", loop:"no", scrubAtTimeAtFirstPlay:"00:00:00", maxWidth:980, maxHeight:552, volume:.8, //logo settings showLogo:"yes", hideLogoWithController:"yes", logoPosition:"topRight", logoLink:"https://code.tutsplus.com/", logoMargins:5, //controller settings showController:"yes", showDefaultControllerForVimeo:"no", showScrubberWhenControllerIsHidden:"yes", showControllerWhenVideoIsStopped:"yes", showVolumeScrubber:"yes", showVolumeButton:"yes", showTime:"yes", showRewindButton:"yes", showQualityButton:"yes", showSubtitleButton:"yes", showShareButton:"yes", showDownloadButton:"yes", showMainScrubberToolTipLabel:"yes", showChromecastButton:"no", showFullScreenButton:"yes", repeatBackground:"yes", controllerHeight:41, controllerHideDelay:3, startSpaceBetweenButtons:7, spaceBetweenButtons:9, mainScrubberOffestTop:14, scrubbersOffsetWidth:4, timeOffsetLeftWidth:5, timeOffsetRightWidth:3, volumeScrubberWidth:80, volumeScrubberOffsetRightWidth:0, timeColor:"#777777", youtubeQualityButtonNormalColor:"#777777", youtubeQualityButtonSelectedColor:"#FFFFFF", scrubbersToolTipLabelBackgroundColor:"#FFFFFF", scrubbersToolTipLabelFontColor:"#5a5a5a", //redirect at video end redirectURL:"", redirectTarget:"_blank", //playback rate / speed showPlaybackRateButton:"yes", defaultPlaybackRate:"1", //0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 2 //embed window embedWindowCloseButtonMargins:0, borderColor:"#333333", mainLabelsColor:"#FFFFFF", secondaryLabelsColor:"#a1a1a1", shareAndEmbedTextColor:"#5a5a5a", inputBackgroundColor:"#000000", inputColor:"#FFFFFF", //thumbnails preview thumbnailsPreview:"", thumbnailsPreviewWidth:196, thumbnailsPreviewHeight:110, thumbnailsPreviewBackgroundColor:"#000000", thumbnailsPreviewBorderColor:"#666", thumbnailsPreviewLabelBackgroundColor:"#666", thumbnailsPreviewLabelFontColor:"#FFF", // context menu showContextmenu:'yes', showScriptDeveloper:"yes", contextMenuBackgroundColor:"#1f1f1f", contextMenuBorderColor:"#1f1f1f", contextMenuSpacerColor:"#333", contextMenuItemNormalColor:"#888888", contextMenuItemSelectedColor:"#FFFFFF", contextMenuItemDisabledColor:"#444" }); }); </script>

Two parameters that have to be unique every time are instanceName and parentId. The parentId parameter is the id of the container for your video. The value of instanceName parameter is used to identify the player when calling methods like play().

The videoSource parameter is used to specify the path to different versions of the same video so that users can play it in SD, HD or Full HD format. The posterPath parameter specifies the path of image file that shows up before the video starts playing.

A lot of other parameters are used to control the spacing, color or background of different UI elements used in the player. If you load the webpage in a browser now, you should see something similar to the image below.

Adding Annotations to Your Video

There are many situations where you will want to give the viewers some additional information while they are watching a video. Annotations are very helpful in that situation. Luckily, Easy Video Player provides a convenient way of adding annotations to your videos

You just need to use a little HTML with special data attributes. In our case, we will use annotations to tell readers a fact about robins and then link to Wikipedia if they want to read more about the bird. Here is the markup that you have to add to the webpage. It might be better to add it right below the video player container.

<ul id="vidAnnotations" style="display:none"> <li data-start-time="00:00:01" data-end-time="00:00:05" data-left="600" data-top="100" data-normal-state-class="EVPAnnotationNormal"> <p>The robin was declared Britain’s National Bird on December 15th, 1960.</p> </li> <li data-start-time="00:00:15" data-end-time="00:00:20" data-left="40" data-top="400" data-show-close-button="yes" data-click-source="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_robin" data-click-source-target="_blank" data-normal-state-class="EVPAnnotationLinkNormal"> <p>You can learn more about this bird on the Wikipedia page about <strong>European Robins</strong>.</p> </li> </ul>

Setting display to none for the annotations will hide them from appearing the webpage. The attributes specified with each annotation will determine when and where they appear in the video. The distance of the annotations from the left and top side can be specified using the data-top and data-left attributes. The data-start-time and data-end-time attributes determine when the annotations will show up and disappear. You can also give users the option to close the annotations manually by setting the data-show-close-button attribute to true. You can read about all other attributes in the documentation available with the download.

Keep in mind that the annotations don't start working as soon as you add them to the webpage. Right now, the video player does not know about their existence. So, you have to specify a couple of parameters in its constructor to help it determine where to find the annotations.

annotiationsListId:"vidAnnotations", showAnnotationsPositionTool:"no",

If someone plays the video now, they will see the annotations after the specified time as in the image below.

Final Thoughts

In this tutorial, we have created a feature-rich fully functional responsive video player which supports annotations using the Easy Video Player script from CodeCanyon. This is just one of the ways of using the plugin. The plugin also offers a lot of other features which increase its usefulness. For example, the script allows you to integrate different kinds of ads in your video to help you monetize your content. You can also use it to play videos inside a lightbox.

Once you purchase this script, you will get 6 months of free support and life time free updates. The plugin is well worth its price due to all the features it offers.

How To Create A PDF From Your Web Application

How To Create A PDF From Your Web Application

Rachel Andrew

2019-06-19T14:00:59+02:002019-06-19T12:22:52+00:00

Many web applications have the requirement of giving the user the ability to download something in PDF format. In the case of applications (such as e-commerce stores), those PDFs have to be created using dynamic data, and be available immediately to the user.

In this article, I’ll explore ways in which we can generate a PDF directly from a web application on the fly. It isn’t a comprehensive list of tools, but instead I am aiming to demonstrate the different approaches. If you have a favorite tool or any experiences of your own to share, please add them to the comments below.

Starting With HTML And CSS

Our web application is likely to be already creating an HTML document using the information that will be added to our PDF. In the case of an invoice, the user might be able to view the information online, then click to download a PDF for their records. You might be creating packing slips; once again, the information is already held within the system. You want to format that in a nice way for download and printing. Therefore, a good place to start would be to consider if it is possible to use that HTML and CSS to generate a PDF version.

CSS does have a specification which deals with CSS for print, and this is the Paged Media module. I have an overview of this specification in my article “Designing For Print With CSS”, and CSS is used by many book publishers for all of their print output. Therefore, as CSS itself has specifications for printed materials, surely we should be able to use it?

The simplest way a user can generate a PDF is via their browser. By choosing to print to PDF rather than a printer, a PDF will be generated. Sadly, this PDF is usually not altogether satisfactory! To start with, it will have the headers and footers which are automatically added when you print something from a webpage. It will also be formatted according to your print stylesheet — assuming you have one.

The problem we run into here is the poor support of the fragmentation specification in browsers; this may mean that the content of your pages breaks in unusual ways. Support for fragmentation is patchy, as I discovered when I researched my article, “Breaking Boxes With CSS Fragmentation”. This means that you may be unable to prevent suboptimal breaking of content, with headers being left as the last item on the page, and so on.

In addition, we have no ability to control the content in the page margin boxes, e.g. adding a header of our choosing to each page or page numbering to show how many pages a complex invoice has. These things are part of the Paged Media spec, but have not been implemented in any browser.

My article “A Guide To The State Of Print Stylesheets In 2018” is still accurate in terms of the type of support that browsers have for printing directly from the browser, using a print stylesheet.

Printing Using Browser Rendering Engines

There are ways to print to PDF using browser rendering engines, without going through the print menu in the browser, and ending up with headers and footers as if you had printed the document. The most popular options in response to my tweet were wkhtmltopdf, and printing using headless Chrome and Puppeteer.

wkhtmltopdf

A solution that was mentioned a number of times on Twitter is a commandline tool called wkhtmltopdf. This tool takes an HTML file or multiple files, along with a stylesheet and turns them into a PDF. It does this by using the WebKit rendering engine.

We use wkhtmltopdf. It’s not perfect, although that was probably user error, but easily good enough for a production application.

— Paul Cardno (@pcardno) February 15, 2019

Essentially, therefore, this tool does the same thing as printing from the browser, however, you will not get the automatically added headers and footers. On this positive side, if you have a working print stylesheet for your content then it should also nicely output to PDF using this tool, and so a simple layout may well print very nicely.

Unfortunately, however, you will still run into the same problems as when printing directly from the web browser in terms of lack of support for the Paged Media specification and fragmentation properties, as you are still printing using a browser rendering engine. There are some flags that you can pass into wkhtmltopdf in order to add back some of the missing features that you would have by default using the Paged Media specification. However, this does require some extra work on top of writing good HTML and CSS.

Headless Chrome

Another interesting possibility is that of using Headless Chrome and Puppeteer to print to PDF.

Puppeteer. It's amazing for this.

— Alex Russell (@slightlylate) February 15, 2019

However once again you are limited by browser support for Paged Media and fragmentation. There are some options which can be passed into the page.pdf() function. As with wkhtmltopdf, these add in some of the functionality that would be possible from CSS should there be browser support.

It may well be that one of these solutions will do all that you need, however, if you find that you are fighting something of a battle, it is probable that you are hitting the limits of what is possible with current browser rendering engines, and will need to look for a better solution.

JavaScript Polyfills For Paged Media

There are a few attempts to essentially reproduce the Paged Media specification in the browser using JavaScript — essentially creating a Paged Media Polyfill. This could give you Paged Media support when using Puppeteer. Take a look at paged.js and Vivliostyle.

Yes. For simple docs, like course certificates, we can use Chrome, which has minimal @ page support. For anything else, we use PrinceXML or the paged.js polyfill in Chrome. Here's a WIP proof-of-concept using paged.js for books: https://t.co/AZ9fO94PT2

— Electric Book Works (@electricbook) February 15, 2019

Using A Print User Agent

If you want to stay with an HTML and CSS solution then you need to look to a User Agent (UA) designed for printing from HTML and CSS, which has an API for generating the PDF from your files. These User Agents implement the Paged Media specification and have far better support for the CSS Fragmentation properties; this will give you greater control over the output. Leading choices include:

Prince

Antenna House

PDFReactor

A print UA will format documents using CSS — just as a web browser does. As with browser support for CSS, you need to check the documentation of these UAs to find out what they support. For example, Prince (which I am most familiar with) supports Flexbox but not CSS Grid Layout at the time of writing. When sending your pages to the tool that you are using, typically this would be with a specific stylesheet for print. As with a regular print stylesheet, the CSS you use on your site will not all be appropriate for the PDF version.

Creating a stylesheet for these tools is very similar to creating a regular print stylesheet, making the kind of decisions in terms of what to display or hide, perhaps using a different font size or colors. You would then be able to take advantage of the features in the Paged Media specification, adding footnotes, page numbers, and so on.

In terms of using these tools from your web application, you would need to install them on your server (having bought a license to do so, of course). The main problem with these tools is that they are expensive. That said, given the ease with which you can then produce printed documents with them, they may well pay for themselves in developer time saved.

It is possible to use Prince via an API, on a pay per document basis, via a service called DocRaptor. This would certainly be a good place for many applications to start as if it looked as if it would become more cost effective to host your own, the development cost of switching would be minimal.

A free alternative, which is not quite as comprehensive as the above tools but may well achieve the results you need, is WeasyPrint. It doesn’t fully implement all of Paged Media, however, it implements more than a browser engine does. Definitely, one to try!

Other tools which claim to support conversion from HTML and CSS include PDFCrowd, which boldly claims to support HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. I couldn’t, however, find any detail on exactly what was supported, and if any of the Paged Media specification was. Also receiving a mention in the responses to my tweet was mPDF.

Moving Away From HTML And CSS

There are a number of other solutions, which move away from using HTML and CSS and require you to create specific output for the tool. A couple of JavaScript contenders are as follows:

jsPDF

pdfmake

Headless browser + saving to PDF was once my first choice but always produced subpar results for anything other than a single page document. We switched over to https://t.co/3o8Ce23F1t for multi-page reports which took quite a lot more effort but well worth it in the end!

— JimmyJoy (@jimle_uk) February 15, 2019

Recommendations

Other than the JavaScript-based approaches, which would require you to create a completely different representation of your content for print, the beauty of many of these solutions is that they are interchangeable. If your solution is based on calling a commandline tool, and passing that tool your HTML, CSS, and possibly some JavaScript, it is fairly straightforward to switch between tools.

In the course of writing this article, I also discovered a Python wrapper which can run a number of different tools. (Note that you need to already have the tools themselves installed, however, this could be a good way to test out the various tools on a sample document.)

For support of Paged Media and fragmentation, Prince, Antenna House, and PDFReactor are going to come out top. As commercial products, they also come with support. If you have a budget, complex pages to print to PDF, and your limitation is developer time, then you would most likely find these to be the quickest route to have your PDF creation working well.

However, in many cases, the free tools will work well for you. If your requirements are very straightforward then wkhtmltopdf, or a basic headless Chrome and Puppeteer solution may do the trick. It certainly seemed to work for many of the people who replied to my original tweet.

If you find yourself struggling to get the output you want, however, be aware that it may be a limitation of browser printing, and not anything you are doing wrong. In the case that you would like more Paged Media support, but are not in a position to go for a commercial product, perhaps take a look at WeasyPrint.

I hope this is a useful roundup of the tools available for creating PDFs from your web application. If nothing else, it demonstrates that there are a wide variety of choices, if your initial choice isn’t working well.

Please add your own experiences and suggestions in the comments, this is one of those things that a lot of us end up dealing with, and personal experience shared can be incredibly helpful.

In this tutorial we will check how to setup a HTTP web server on the ESP32 that will have a websocket endpoint and that will serve a HTML file containing JavaScript code to establish a websocket connection to the server.

With this tutorial, we aim to illustrate that the asynchronous HTTP web server libraries we are going to use allow simultaneously to work with regular HTTP requests and websocket connections, making it a very good framework choice.

For a tutorial on how to get started with these libraries using the ESP32, please check here. For the websocket related functionalities available on these libraries, please check this tutorial.

When it comes to serving content, this framework offers a great variety of possibilities, like serving string content, serving content from FLASH memory and serving content from the file system.

Since we are going to serve a web page with some complexity, we will use the file system approach. In terms of scalability and organization, keeping the the content in different files on the file system should be the cleanest way for a real case scenario where we want to setup a web server with multiple routes.

For a basic introduction on SPIFFS (SPI Flash File System) on the ESP32, please check here. To make the process of working with files easier, we will use a plugin to upload the HTML file to the ESP32 file system beforehand. So, when we run the HTTP web server code, the file should already be there, ready for serving. You can check here how to use the mentioned plugin.

The mentioned tutorial covers in the detail the whole procedure but, to sum up, we first need to navigate to the folder of the Arduino sketch we want to upload to the ESP32 later. There, we should create a folder named “data” and inside it we should put our file with the HTML and JavaScript code (we will cover its content below).

You can name the file how you want as long as you use the correct file name later in the Arduino code. I’m naming mine ws.html, like illustrated in figure 1.

In order to upload the file and assuming a previous installation of the plugin, you should go to “Tools” in the Arduino IDE and click the “ESP32 Sketch Data Upload” option.

Once the procedure finishes, the file should be located on the SPIFFS file system on the root directory with the same name and extension we gave it. So, its full path will be “/ws.html“.

Figure 1 – Uploading the file to the SPIFFS file system.

In this tutorial we will simplify the HTML and JavaScript as much as possible, so it is easier to understand the end-to-end architecture. So, we are not going to follow all the best practices but please take them in consideration when developing your final code.

We are also not going to use any CSS code, so the final interface that will be shown to the user will be very simple.

The mentioned interface will allow the user to establish the connection to the websocket server, then send some data using a textual input and also allow him to close the connection. After closing a connection, the user can reconnect again.

The tests were performed using a DFRobot’s ESP32 module integrated in a ESP32 development board.

The HTML and JavaScript Code

In order to keep things simple and focus on the ESP32 code, we will develop all the JavaScript and HTML in the same file. Note however that in order to keep the code clean, it is usually a good practice to keep the JavaScript code in a different file.

We will first focus on the HTML code. We will have two main sections, the head and the body. In the head, we will place the JavaScript code that will handle the websocket connection and in the body the HTML elements that will be rendered in the page.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html>   <head>      <script type = "text/javascript">        // JS code      </script>   </head>   <body>        <!-- Body elements-->   </body> </html>

The body will have two HTML divs. The first one will contain two buttons, one to establish the web socket connection to the server and the other to disconnect.

Since when the page loads no connection is established, the “connect” button will be enabled and the “disconnect” button will be disabled. Each button will call a JavaScript function to connect and disconnect from the websocket server, respectively.

We will set the id attribute of both buttons so we can later manipulate their disabled status in the JavaScript code when the connection / disconnection events occur.

<div> <button onclick = "OpenWebsocket()" id = "connectButton">CONNECT</button> <button onclick = "CloseWebsocket()" disabled = "true" id = "disconnectButton">DISCONNECT</button> </div>

The second div will have a text input and a submit button, so the user can write text and send it to the websocket server. Both these elements start disabled since, when the page loads, no connection is established, which means it doesn’t make sense to allow the user to send data.

The “send” button will also call a JavaScript function responsible for sending the textual content using the previously opened websocket.

Again, these two elements will have ids so we can easily manipulate their status in the JavaScript code.

<div> <input type = "text" disabled = "true" id = "inputText"></input> <button onclick = "SendData()"  disabled = "true" id = "sendButton">SEND</button> </div>

Now we will check the JavaScript code needed. First, we will declare a globally scoped variable so we can later initialize the websocket connection and access it inside the JavaScript functions.

var ws = null;

Then, we will define the functions that will be called when clicking the buttons of our user interface. We need to define a function that will execute when the user clicks the “connect” button.

So, when the user clicks that button, we want to establish the connection. First, we will instantiate an object of class WebSocket, passing as input of the constructor the websocket URL.

The format of the URL is shown below. Note that you should change #yourEspIp# by the IP of your ESP32 and we are assuming that the websocket endpoint will be “/test”, which will be the one we’ll be using in the Arduino code when setting up the server.

ws://#yourEspIp#/test

The code is shown below, already substituted with my ESP32 IP. Note that I know the IP of my ESP32 beforehand from previous tests. Also, my router assigns a static IP to my ESP32, so I know it won’t change.

If you don’t know the IP of your ESP32 yet, then you need to obtain it before finishing this code. You can read more about getting the IP address here. Alternatively, you can just run the Arduino code below, wait for the device to connect to the WiFi network and copy the IP that will be printed. Naturally, at that point, since it won’t have the HTML file yet, the rest of the functionality will not work.

For a more robust solution that doesn’t involve knowing the IP beforehand, you can take advantage of the async HTTP web server libraries template engine and put a placeholder in the IP address and then change it in run time by the IP of the ESP32.

You can check here an introduction to template processing on the ESP32. For the specific use case where the file will be served from the file system (which is what we are going to do), you can check here the code needed for the template substitution.

As an alternative solution, if you don’t want to work with IP addresses directly, you can also setup a mDSN server on the ESP32. The ESP32 async HTTP web server libraries example covers this approach.

ws = new WebSocket("ws://192.168.1.78/test");

Since the WebSocket API works with events, then we need to specify what happens when the connection opened and connection closed events occur. Basically, we need to set handling functions to be executed when these events occur.

In terms of implementation, these handling functions will be very similar. When the onopen event occurs, we know the connection is established, so we disable the “connect” button and enable the “disconnect” button. We will also enable the text input and the “send” button since after that event the user can start sending content to the server.

The onclose event will be the opposite, meaning that we will disable the “disconnect” and “send” buttons and the text input and we are going to enable the “connect” button, in case the user wants to re-connect later. We will also give a message in an alert box indicating the disconnection.

In both event callback functions we access the HTML objects by using the getElementById method of the document object. This method receives as input the ID of the element we want to obtain, as a string. This is why we added the id property to our HTML elements and we should use it here.

In order to change the status of the element, we use the disabled attribute, which we can use to enable / disable the element. To do it, we just need to assign it a Boolean value. If we want to enable it, we set the disabled attribute to false. If we want to disable it, we set the disabled attribute to true.

function OpenWebsocket() {   ws = new WebSocket("ws://192.168.1.78/test");   ws.onopen = function() { document.getElementById("inputText").disabled = false; document.getElementById("sendButton").disabled = false; document.getElementById("connectButton").disabled = true; document.getElementById("disconnectButton").disabled = false;   };   ws.onclose = function() { document.getElementById("inputText").disabled = true; document.getElementById("sendButton").disabled = true; document.getElementById("connectButton").disabled = false; document.getElementById("disconnectButton").disabled = true; alert("Connection closed");   }; }

The function that will be executed when the user clicks the “disconnect” button will be very simple. We will just need to call the closemethod on our websocket object. After that, when the connection is effectively closed, the corresponding event will be triggered and the handling function we defined before will be executed, performing the enabling / disabling of the HTML events we have described.

function CloseWebsocket(){ ws.close(); }

The function to be executed when the user clicks the “send” button will also be very simple. First, we obtain the value of the text input element and store it in a variable.

Like we did before, we can access the element by using the getElementById method, passing as input the ID of the text input element. Then, we can access its value using the value attribute.

Then, we simply send the value to the server using the send method of the websocket object.

function SendData(){ var textToSend = document.getElementById("inputText").value; ws.send(textToSend); }

The full code can be seen below. Note that the code shown here is not minified but, in order to save some space in the ESP32, we could have done it. Also, take in consideration that we are not following here all the best practices for developing HTML and JavaScript code, for the sake of simplicity.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html>   <head>      <script type = "text/javascript">         var ws = null;         function OpenWebsocket() {               ws = new WebSocket("ws://192.168.1.78/test");               ws.onopen = function() {                    document.getElementById("inputText").disabled = false;                    document.getElementById("sendButton").disabled = false;                    document.getElementById("connectButton").disabled = true;                    document.getElementById("disconnectButton").disabled = false;               };               ws.onclose = function() {                    document.getElementById("inputText").disabled = true;                    document.getElementById("sendButton").disabled = true;                    document.getElementById("connectButton").disabled = false;                    document.getElementById("disconnectButton").disabled = true;                    alert("Connection closed");               };         }         function CloseWebsocket(){            ws.close();         }         function SendData(){            var textToSend = document.getElementById("inputText").value;            ws.send(textToSend);         }      </script>   </head>   <body>      <div>         <button onclick = "OpenWebsocket()" id = "connectButton">CONNECT</button>         <button onclick = "CloseWebsocket()" disabled = "true" id = "disconnectButton">DISCONNECT</button>      </div>      <div>         <input type = "text" disabled = "true" id = "inputText"></input>         <button onclick = "SendData()"  disabled = "true" id = "sendButton">SEND</button>      </div>   </body> </html>

The Arduino code

The Arduino code for this tutorial will be built on top of many functionalities we have been covering in previous tutorials.

To get started, we need the library includes that will make available the functionalities we are going to use. We need the WiFi.h in order to be able to connect the ESP32 to a WiFi network and the ESPAsyncWebServer.h, so we can setup the async HTTP web server.

Since we are going to serve the HTML / JavaScript file from the file system then we also need the SPIFFS.h library, so we can interact with the ESP32 file system.

#include "WiFi.h" #include "ESPAsyncWebServer.h" #include "SPIFFS.h"

As usual with all the sketches that involve connecting the ESP32 to a WiFi network, we will need to declare the credentials of that network, to later use them in the Arduino Setup function.

Thus, we need the network name (SSID) and the network password. Before uploading the code to your ESP32, you should change the placeholders below by the actual values of your network.

const char* ssid = "yourNetworkName"; const char* password = "yourNetworkPass";

To continue the global variables declaration, we need an object of class AsyncWebServer, which will be used to setup the HTTP server. Remember that, as input of the constructor, we need to pass the HTTP port where the server will be listening to incoming requests. As usual, we will use 80, which is the default HTTP port.

AsyncWebServer server(80);

Finally, we need an object of class AsyncWebSocket, which will be used to setup the websocket endpoint. The constructor for this class receives as input a string with the route where the websocket can be reached. As we stated in the JavaScript code, it will be “/test”.

AsyncWebSocket ws("/test");

Moving on to the setup function, it will be pretty much similar to what we have been covering in previous posts. We will start by opening a serial connection, initializing the file system and then connecting the ESP32 to the WiFi network, printing the local IP assign to it at the end.

Serial.begin(115200); if(!SPIFFS.begin()){     Serial.println("An Error has occurred while mounting SPIFFS");     return; } WiFi.begin(ssid, password); while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {    delay(1000);    Serial.println("Connecting to WiFi.."); } Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());

Then, we will bind a handling function to our websocket endpoint by calling the onEvent method on the AsyncWebSocket object. As input, we pass the handling function that will be executed whenever a websocket event occurs. We will define this function later.

ws.onEvent(onWsEvent);

Next, we register the websocket object on our HTTP web server by calling the addHandler method of the AsyncWebServer object. As input, this method will receive the address of our AsyncWebSocket object.

server.addHandler(&ws);

Now that we have configured the websocket endpoint, we still need to add a route to serve the HTML / JavaScript file we have developed in the previous section. This route will be named “/html” and will listen only to HTTP GET requests.

In the handling function implementation, we will simply serve the file from the file system. To do it, we use the send method of the AsyncWebServerRequest object pointer, passing as first input the SPIFFS variable that is used to interact with the ESP32 SPIFFS file system.

As second input we pass the path of the file, so the async web server framework can retrieve it and return it to the client. The file will be on the root directory and it is named ws.html. So, the full path is “/ws.html“

To finalize, we pass as last parameter of the send method a string with the content-type, which will be “text/html“.

server.on("/html", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest *request){    request->send(SPIFFS, "/ws.html", "text/html"); });

Finally, we call the begin method on the AsyncWebServer object, so it starts listening to incoming HTTP requests.

server.begin();

The final setup function can be seen below.

void setup(){  Serial.begin(115200);  if(!SPIFFS.begin()){     Serial.println("An Error has occurred while mounting SPIFFS");     return;  }  WiFi.begin(ssid, password);  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {    delay(1000);    Serial.println("Connecting to WiFi..");  }  Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());  ws.onEvent(onWsEvent);  server.addHandler(&ws);  server.on("/html", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest *request){    request->send(SPIFFS, "/ws.html", "text/html");  });  server.begin(); }

To finalize, we still need to declare the websocket event handling function. As covered in previous tutorials, this function’s signature needs to follow the one defined by the AwsEventHandler type.

The implementation will be simple. We will look for three types of events: client connected, client sent data and client disconnected. We can do this by applying some conditional sentences to the third argument that is passed by the HTTP web server framework to this handling function.

This is an argument of type AwsEventType, which corresponds to an enum indicating the event type.

So, for the connection and disconnection events, we simply print to the serial port a message indicating that the event has occurred. In case we receive a data event, we iterate through the bytes of the data and print them to the serial port.

This printing of data is done by using the fifth and sixth arguments of the callback function, which respectively correspond to an array with the data bytes and the length of the array (so we have a stopping condition for our data reading loop).

The full function can be seen below.

void onWsEvent(AsyncWebSocket * server, AsyncWebSocketClient * client, AwsEventType type, void * arg, uint8_t *data, size_t len){  if(type == WS_EVT_CONNECT){    Serial.println("Websocket client connection received");  } else if(type == WS_EVT_DISCONNECT){    Serial.println("Client disconnected");    Serial.println("-----------------------");  } else if(type == WS_EVT_DATA){    Serial.print("Data received: ");    for(int i=0; i < len; i++) {          Serial.print((char) data[i]);    }    Serial.println();  } }

The final source code can be seen below. Recall that the main loop is left empty since the web server framework is asynchronous, which means we don’t need to poll some kind of object periodically to check for incoming clients, but rather provide event callback functions, like we did.

#include "WiFi.h" #include "ESPAsyncWebServer.h" #include "SPIFFS.h" const char* ssid = "yourNetworkName"; const char* password =  "yourNetworkPass"; AsyncWebServer server(80); AsyncWebSocket ws("/test"); void onWsEvent(AsyncWebSocket * server, AsyncWebSocketClient * client, AwsEventType type, void * arg, uint8_t *data, size_t len){  if(type == WS_EVT_CONNECT){    Serial.println("Websocket client connection received");  } else if(type == WS_EVT_DISCONNECT){    Serial.println("Client disconnected");    Serial.println("-----------------------");  } else if(type == WS_EVT_DATA){    Serial.print("Data received: ");    for(int i=0; i < len; i++) {          Serial.print((char) data[i]);    }    Serial.println();  } } void setup(){  Serial.begin(115200);  if(!SPIFFS.begin()){     Serial.println("An Error has occurred while mounting SPIFFS");     return;  }  WiFi.begin(ssid, password);  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {    delay(1000);    Serial.println("Connecting to WiFi..");  }  Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());  ws.onEvent(onWsEvent);  server.addHandler(&ws);  server.on("/html", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest *request){    request->send(SPIFFS, "/ws.html", "text/html");  });  server.begin(); } void loop(){}

Testing the code

Assuming that you have already uploaded the HTML / JavaScript file to the ESP32 file system, simply compile and upload the Arduino code. When the procedure finishes open the Arduino IDE serial monitor and copy the IP address that gets printed.

Then, open a web browser of your choice and type the following in the address bar, changing #yourEspIp# by the IP you have just copied.

http://#yourEspIp#/html

You should get to a web page similar to the one shown below at figure 2. As can be seen, only the connect button is enabled and, at this point, there’s no connection established to the ESP32 server.

Figure 2 – Websocket connection interface, served by the ESP32.

After that, simply click the connect button. It may take a while, but then the status of the elements should change accordingly to what is shown in figure 3, indicating the connection was established and now we can send data to the websocket server.

Figure 3 – Websocket interface after connection established.

If you go back to the Arduino IDE serial monitor, it should have printed a message indicating a connection was established, as illustrated below in figure 4.

Figure 4 – Connection received by the ESP32.

Now you can go back to the HTML page and start sending some textual content to the server. After sending some data, if you go back to the serial monitor, the messages should be printed, as shown in figure 5.

Figure 5 – Data received via websocket printed to the Arduino IDE serial monitor.

Finally, if you click the disconnect button, the UI of the web page should get back to the state shown in figure 2. The corresponding event should be detected on the ESP32 and a message should be printed, as shown in figure 6.

Figure 6 – Disconnection event detected and corresponding message printed.

You can try to reconnect back and send more data and everything should work fine.
