Configuring the client
======================
### Configuring the client using JSON
The Hypothesis client can be configured by providing a JSON config object in
the body of the hosting page:
```html
<script type="application/json" class="js-hypothesis-config">
{
"openSidebar": true
}
</script>
<script async src="https://hypothes.is/embed.js"></script>
```
Not all configuration settings can be set in this way, some must be
[set using JavaScript](#configuring-the-client-using-javascript) (see below).
**N.B.** The body of the `.js-hypothesis-config` tag must be [valid
JSON](http://jsonlint.com/) -- invalid JSON will cause the entire config object
to be ignored.
### Configuring the client using JavaScript
Alternatively, the Hypothesis client can be configured from the hosting page by
providing a JavaScript function named `window.hypothesisConfig` that returns
a configuration object. Some configuration settings (for example settings that
register callback or event handler functions) can _only_ be set from
JavaScript:
```html
window.hypothesisConfig = function () {
return {
"openSidebar": true
};
};
```
Config settings
---------------
### Client behavior
These settings configure the behavior and initial state of the client when it
loads.
#### `openLoginForm`
_Boolean_. Controls whether the login panel is automatically opened on startup,
as if the user had clicked "Log in" themselves. (Default: _false_.)
#### `openSidebar`
_Boolean_. Controls whether the sidebar opens automatically on startup.
(Default: _false_.)
#### `showHighlights`
_Boolean_. Controls whether the in-document highlights are shown by default.
(Default: _true_.)
### Annotation services
The `services` setting configures which annotation services the client
connects to (for example to login, retrieve annotations, and save annotations).
By default, if no `services` setting is given, the client connects to the
public Hypothesis service at [hypothes.is](https://hypothes.is).
#### `services`
_Array_. A list of alternative annotation services which the client should
connect to instead of connecting the the public Hypothesis service at
[hypothes.is](https://hypothes.is/).
May optionally include information (in the form of a grant token) about the
identity of the user accounts that the client is logged in to on those
services.
**N.B.** These settings are currently still experimental and may change without
warning.
**N.B.** Currently only one alternative annotation service at a time is
supported - only the first item in this `services` array is used, and any
further items in the array are ignored.
Each item in the `services` array should be an object describing an annotation
service, with the following keys:
* `authority` _String_. The domain name which the annotation service is
associated with.
* `grantToken` _String|null_. An OAuth 2 grant token which the client can
exchange for an access token in order to make authenticated requests to the
service. If _null_, the user will be able to read but not create or modify
annotations. (Default: _null_)
* `icon` _String|null_. The URL to an image for the annotation service. This
image will appear to the left of the name of the currently selected group.
The image should be suitable for display at 16x16px and the recommended
format is SVG.
* `onLoginRequest` _function_. A JavaScript function that the client will
call in order to login (for example, when the user clicks a login button in
the Hypothesis client's sidebar).
This setting can only be [set using window.hypothesisConfig](#configuring-the-client-using-javascript).
If the hosting page provides an `onLoginRequest` function then the Hypothesis
client will call this function instead of doing its usual procedure for
logging in to the public service at [hypothes.is](https://hypothes.is/).
No arguments are passed to the `onLoginRequest` function.
The `onLoginRequest` function should cause a login procedure for the hosting page
to be performed - for example by redirecting to a login page, or by opening
a popup login window. After a successful login the hosting page should
reload the original page with a non-null `grantToken` for the logged-in user
in the `services` configuration setting.
### Asset and sidebar app location
These settings configure where the client's assets are loaded from.
**N.B.** These settings are currently still experimental and may change without
warning.
#### `assetRoot`
_String_. The root URL from which assets are loaded. This should be set to the
URL where the contents of the `hypothesis` package are hosted, including the
trailing slash. (Default: For production builds:
_https://cdn.hypothes.is/hypothesis/X.Y.Z/_, for development builds:
_http://localhost:3001/hypothesis/X.Y.Z/_. _X.Y.Z_ is the package version from
`package.json`)
#### `sidebarAppUrl`
_String_. The URL for the sidebar application which displays annotations
(Default: _https://hypothes.is/app.html_ . If the `H_SERVICE_URL` env var is
set, defaults to `${H_SERVICE_URL}/app.html`)
# Developing the client
Developing the Client
=====================
Hypothesis is comprised of several components:
This section documents how to setup a development environment for the client,
how to run the client and its tests in a development environment,
client coding standards and how to contribute code to the client.
- A browser-based web app for annotating web pages (this repository)
- A service which stores annotations, user accounts and other data. By default
the client uses the public service at [hypothes.is](https://hypothes.is).
- A browser extension which can add the client to web pages.
Setting up a Client Development Environment
-------------------------------------------
## Prerequisites

You now have a development client built. To run your development client in
a browser you'll need a local copy of either the Hypothesis Chrome extension or
the Hypothesis web service. Follow either the instructions for
[Running the client from the browser extension](#running-the-client-from-the-browser-extension)
or for
[Running the client from the web service](#running-the-client-from-the-web-service)
below.
the Hypothesis web service. Follow either
:ref:`running-from-browser-ext` or :ref:`running-from-web-service` below.
If you're only interested in making changes to the client (and not to the web
service) then running the client from the browser extension is easiest.
## Running the client from the browser extension
.. _running-from-browser-ext:
Running the Client from the Browser Extension
---------------------------------------------
This is the currently easiest way to get your development client running in a
browser. It sets you up to make changes to the client and to the Chrome
extension itself, but not to the web service.
1. Check out the [browser
extension](https://github.com/hypothesis/browser-extension) and follow the
steps in the
[README](https://github.com/hypothesis/browser-extension/blob/master/README.md)
to make it use your local version of the client and the [production
Hypothesis
service](https://github.com/hypothesis/browser-extension/blob/master/docs/building.md).
#. Check out the
`browser extension <https://github.com/hypothesis/browser-extension>`_
and follow the steps in the browser extension's documentation to build the
extension and configure it to use your local version of the client and the
production Hypothesis service.
1. Start the client's development server to rebuild the client whenever it

1. After making changes to the client, you will need to run `make` in the
#. After making changes to the client, you will need to run ``make`` in the
browser extension repo and reload the extension in Chrome to see changes.
You can use [Extensions

You can use
`Extensions Reloader <https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/extensions-reloader/fimgfedafeadlieiabdeeaodndnlbhid?hl=en>`_
to make this easier.
## Running the client from the web service
.. _running-from-web-service:
Running the Client From the Web Service
---------------------------------------
This takes longer to setup than
[Running the client from the browser extension](#running-the-client-from-the-browser-extension).
This takes longer to setup than :ref:`running-from-browser-ext`.
You should follow these steps if you want to make changes to the Hypothesis
web service as well as to the client.
First follow the [instructions for setting up a development install of the web
service](http://h.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developing/).
First follow the
`instructions for setting up a development install of the web service <http://h.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developing/>`_.
Once you have a development install of the Hypothesis service set up, you can
configure it to use a local build of the client. **In the client repository**,
run:
```sh
export H_SERVICE_URL=http://localhost:5000
gulp watch
```
.. code-block:: sh
The `H_SERVICE_URL` env var sets the URL of the service which hosts the HTML
entry point for the client's sidebar application.
export H_SERVICE_URL=http://localhost:5000
gulp watch
**In the `hypothesis/h` repository**, set the `CLIENT_URL` env var to tell the
service where to load the client from, before running `make dev`:
**In the `hypothesis/h` repository**, set the :envvar:`CLIENT_URL` env var to
tell the service where to load the client from, before running ``make dev``:
```sh
export CLIENT_URL=http://localhost:3001/hypothesis
make dev
```
.. code-block:: sh
export CLIENT_URL=http://localhost:3001/hypothesis
make dev
Once the client and service are running, you can test it out by visiting:
[http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) or [the Help
page](http://localhost:5000/docs/help) in your browser.
http://localhost:3000 or http://localhost:5000/docs/help in your browser.
You can also load the client into your own web pages by adding:
```html
<script async src="http://localhost:5000/embed.js"></script>
```
.. code-block:: html
<script async src="http://localhost:5000/embed.js"></script>
to the page's HTML. Note that this will only work in pages served via plain
HTTP. If you want to test out the client on pages served via HTTPS then building
the client into a browser extension is the easiest option.
## Running tests
Running the Tests
-----------------
Hypothesis uses Karma and mocha for testing. To run all the tests once, run:
```sh
gulp test
```
.. code-block:: sh
gulp test
To run tests and automatically re-run them whenever any source files change, run:
```sh
gulp test-watch
```
.. code-block:: sh
You can filter the tests which are run by passing `--grep <pattern>` as an
argument to `gulp test`. See the documentation for Mocha's
[grep](https://mochajs.org/#g---grep-pattern) option.
gulp test-watch
You can filter the tests which are run by passing ``--grep <pattern>`` as an
argument to ``gulp test``. See the documentation for Mocha's
`grep <https://mochajs.org/#g---grep-pattern>`_ option.

# Interacting with the sidebar
## Show the sidebar:
If you need to have a custom trigger on your third party page to bring up the embedded Hypothesis
sidebar, add the `data-hypothesis-trigger` attribute to the element that you want to enable.
Clicking that element will cause the sidebar to open.
Note, however, subsequent clicks do not hide the sidebar.
Example:
To add a `button` on a page to open the sidebar, simply
add the `data-hypothesis-trigger` attribute.
```html
<button data-hypothesis-trigger>
Open sidebar
</button>
```
## Show the public annotation count:
If you need to show the total number of public annotations, page notes and orphaned annotations
on your third party page where the Hypothesis sidebar is embedded, add the `data-hypothesis-annotation-count`
attribute to the element that you want to enable.
The contents of the enabled element will be replaced with the count of public annotations and if there are no
public annotations, with 0.
Example:
To display the annotation count in a `div` element, simply
add the `data-hypothesis-annotation-count` attribute to the `div`:
```html
<div data-hypothesis-annotation-count>
Annotation count will appear here
</div>
```
Welcome to Hypothesis Client's documentation!
=============================================
The `Hypothesis client <https://github.com/hypothesis/client>`_ is a browser-based tool for making annotations on web
pages. It's a client for the `Hypothesis web annotation service <http://h.readthedocs.io/>`_.
It's used by the
`Hypothesis browser extension <https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hypothesis-web-pdf-annota/bjfhmglciegochdpefhhlphglcehbmek>`_, and can also be
:doc:`embedded directly into web pages <publishers/embedding>`.

Configuring the Client
======================
This page documents the configuration settings that you can use to configure
the Hypothesis client once it's embedded in your website.
Configuring the Client Using JSON
---------------------------------
The Hypothesis client can be configured by providing a JSON config object in
the body of the hosting page:
.. code-block:: html
<script type="application/json" class="js-hypothesis-config">
{
"openSidebar": true
}
</script>
<script async src="https://hypothes.is/embed.js"></script>
Not all configuration settings can be set in this way, some must be
:ref:`set using JavaScript <configuring-with-js>` (see below).
.. note::
The body of the ``.js-hypothesis-config`` tag must be
`valid JSON <http://jsonlint.com/>`_, invalid JSON will cause the entire
config object to be ignored.
.. _configuring-with-js:
Configuring the Client Using JavaScript
---------------------------------------
.. js:function:: window.hypothesisConfig()
Alternatively, the Hypothesis client can be configured from the hosting page
by providing a JavaScript function named :js:func:`window.hypothesisConfig`
that returns a configuration object. Some configuration settings (for
example settings that register callback or event handler functions) can
*only* be set from JavaScript:
.. code-block:: javascript
window.hypothesisConfig = function () {
return {
"openSidebar": true
};
};
Config Settings
---------------
Client Behavior
###############
These settings configure the behavior and initial state of the client when it
loads.
.. option:: openLoginForm
``Boolean``. Controls whether the login panel is automatically opened on
startup, as if the user had clicked "Log in" themselves.
(Default: ``false``.)
.. option:: openSidebar
``Boolean``. Controls whether the sidebar opens automatically on startup.
(Default: ``false``.)
.. option:: showHighlights
``Boolean``. Controls whether the in-document highlights are shown by default.
(Default: ``true``.)
.. option:: services
``Array``. A list of alternative annotation services which the client should
connect to instead of connecting to the public Hypothesis service at
`hypothes.is <https://hypothes.is/>`_. May optionally include information
(in the form of grant tokens) about user accounts that the client is logged
in to on those services.
For example:
.. code-block:: javascript
window.hypothesisConfig = function () {
return {
services: [{
authority: 'partner.org',
grantToken: '***',
icon: 'https://openclipart.org/download/272629/sihouette-animaux-10.svg'
}],
};
};
By default, if no :option:`services` setting is given, the client connects
to the public Hypothesis service at `hypothes.is <https://hypothes.is/>`_.
.. warning::
The :option:`services` setting is currently still experimental and may
change in the future.
.. note::
Currently only one additional annotation service is supported - only the
first item in this :option:`services` array is used, and any further
items in the array are ignored.
Each item in the :option:`services` array should be an object describing an
annotation service, with the following keys:
.. option:: authority
``String``. The domain name which the annotation service is associated with.
.. option:: grantToken
``String|null``. An OAuth 2 grant token which the client can send to the
service in order to get an access token for making authenticated requests
to the service. If ``null``, the user will not be logged in and will only
be able to read rather than create or modify annotations. (Default:
``null``)
.. seealso::
:ref:`Generating authorization grant tokens` for how to generate grant
tokens for the `hypothes.is <https://hypothes.is/>`_ service.
.. option:: icon
``String|null``. The URL to an image for the annotation service. This
image will appear to the left of the name of the currently selected
group. The image should be suitable for display at 16x16px and the
recommended format is SVG.
.. option:: onLoginRequest
``function``. A JavaScript function that the Hypothesis client will
call in order to login (for example, when the user clicks a login button in
the Hypothesis client's sidebar).
This setting can only be set using :js:func:`window.hypothesisConfig`.
If the hosting page provides an :option:`onLoginRequest` function then the
Hypothesis client will call this function instead of doing its usual
procedure for logging in to the public service at `hypothes.is
<https://hypothes.is/>`_.
No arguments are passed to the :option:`onLoginRequest` function.
The :option:`onLoginRequest` function should cause a login procedure for
the hosting page to be performed - for example by redirecting to a login
page, or by opening a popup login window. After a successful login the
hosting page should reload the original page with a non-null
:option:`grantToken` for the logged-in user in the :option:`services`
configuration setting.
Asset and Sidebar App Location
##############################
These settings configure where the client's assets are loaded from.
.. warning::
These settings are currently still experimental and may change in the future.
.. option:: assetRoot
``String``. The root URL from which assets are loaded. This should be set to
the URL where the contents of the hypothesis package are hosted, including
the trailing slash. (Default: for production builds:
``"https://cdn.hypothes.is/hypothesis/X.Y.Z/"``, for development builds:
``"http://localhost:3001/hypothesis/X.Y.Z/""`.
``X.Y.Z`` is the package version from ``package.json``).
.. option:: sidebarAppUrl
``String``. The URL for the sidebar application which displays annotations
(Default: ``"https://hypothes.is/app.html"``).
How to Add Hypothesis to Your Website
=====================================
.. If you update this page, please ensure you update the "For Publishers" page
on the Hypothesis website, or coordinate with someone who can
(https://hypothes.is/for-publishers/).
To add Hypothesis to your website, just add this one line to the HTML source of
each page that you want to have the Hypothesis client on:
.. code-block:: html
<script src="https://hypothes.is/embed.js" async></script>
Interacting with the Client
===========================
This page documents the ways in which your website can interact with the
Hypothesis client, once the client is embedded in your site.
.. option:: data-hypothesis-trigger
You can add a button to your page that opens the Hypothesis sidebar.
If you need to have a custom trigger on your third party page to bring up
the embedded Hypothesis sidebar, add the :option:`data-hypothesis-trigger`
attribute to the element that you want to enable. Clicking that element
will cause the sidebar to open. Note, however, subsequent clicks do not
hide the sidebar.
For example to add a ``<button>`` on a page to open the sidebar, simply
add the :option:`data-hypothesis-trigger` attribute:
.. code-block:: html

.. option:: data-hypothesis-annotation-count
You can add a count of the number of annotations to your page.
If you need to show the total number of public annotations, page notes and
orphaned annotations on your third party page where the Hypothesis client
is embedded, add the :option:`data-hypothesis-annotation-count` attribute to
the element that you want to enable. The contents of the enabled element
will be replaced with the count of public annotations and if there are no
public annotations, with 0.
For example to display the annotation count in a ``<div>`` element, simply
add the :option:`data-hypothesis-annotation-count` attribute to the
``<div>``:
.. code-block:: html
<div data-hypothesis-annotation-count>
Annotation count will appear here
</div>
For Content Publishers
======================
This section is for **content publishers** who publish content to the web and
want to integrate the Hypothesis client into their web pages. If you want to
add the Hypothesis client to your web pages so that visitors can annotate the
pages without having to install their own Hypothesis browser extension, these
pages will help you get started.
