## Scriptlets

Scriptlet is a JavaScript function which can be used in a declarative manner in AdGuard filtering rules.

AdGuard supports a lot of different scriptlets.
Please note, that in order to achieve cross-blocker compatibility, we also support syntax of uBO and ABP.

### Syntax

#### Blocking rules

```text
[domains]#%#//scriptlet(name[, arguments])
```

- `domains` — optional, a list of domains where the rule should be applied;
- `name` — required, a name of the scriptlet from AdGuard Scriptlets library;
- `arguments` — optional, a list of `string` arguments (no other types of arguments are supported).

> **Remarks**
>
> - The meaning of the arguments depends on the scriptlet.
>
> - Special characters in scriptlet argument must be escaped properly:
> - valid:
> - `'prop["nested"]'`
> - `"prop['nested']"`
> - `'prop[\'nested\']'`
> - `"prop[\"nested\"]"`
> - not valid:
> - `'prop['nested']'`
> - `"prop["nested"]"`
>
> - Scriptlet `name` and each of the `arguments` should be wrapped in quotes.
> You can use either single or double quotes for the scriptlet name and arguments.
> Single quote is recommended but not for cases when its usage makes readability worse,
> e.g. `".css('display','block');"` is more preferred then `'.css(\'display\',\'block\');'`.

#### Exception rules

```text
[domains]#@%#//scriptlet([name[, arguments]])
```

- `domains` — optional, a list of domains where the rule should be applied;
- `name` — optional, a name of the scriptlet to except from the applying;
if not set, all scriptlets will not be applied;
- `arguments` — optional, a list of `string` arguments to match the same blocking rule and disable it.

#### Examples

1. Apply the `abort-on-property-read` scriptlet on all pages of `example.org` and its subdomains,
and passes one argument to it (`alert`):

```adblock
example.org#%#//scriptlet('abort-on-property-read', 'alert')
```

1. Remove the `branding` class from all `div[class^="inner"]` elements
on all pages of `example.org` and its subdomains:

```adblock
example.org#%#//scriptlet('remove-class', 'branding', 'div[class^="inner"]')
```

1. Apply `set-constant` and `set-cookie` on any webpage,
but because of specific scriptlet exception rule
only `set-constant` scriptlet will be applied on `example.org` and its subdomains:

```adblock
#%#//scriptlet('set-constant', 'adList', 'emptyArr')
#%#//scriptlet('set-cookie', 'accepted', 'true')
example.org#@%#//scriptlet('set-cookie')
```

1. Apply `adjust-setInterval` on any webpage,
and `set-local-storage-item` on all pages of `example.com` and its subdomains,
but there is also multiple scriptlet exception rule,
so no scriptlet rules will be applied on `example.com` and its subdomains:

```adblock
#%#//scriptlet('adjust-setInterval', 'count', '*', '0.001')
example.com#%#//scriptlet('set-local-storage-item', 'ALLOW_COOKIES', 'false')
example.com#@%#//scriptlet()
```

- **[Scriptlets compatibility table](./wiki/compatibility-table.md#scriptlets)**

### Trusted scriptlets

Trusted scriptlets are scriptlets with extended functionality.
Their names are prefixed with `trusted-`, e.g `trusted-click-element`,
to be easily distinguished from common scriptlets.

#### Restriction

Trusted scriptlets application must be restricted due to dangerous nature of their capabilities.
Allowed sources of trusted scriptlets are:

- filters created by AdGuard Team,
- custom filters which were installed as `trusted`,
- user rules.

> Trusted scriptlets has no compatibility table as they are not compatible with any other blocker.

**[Trusted scriptlets list](./wiki/about-trusted-scriptlets.md#trusted-scriptlets)**

## Redirect resources

AdGuard is able to redirect web requests to a local "resource".

### Syntax

AdGuard uses the same filtering rule syntax as [uBlock Origin][ubo-redirect].
Also, it is compatible with ABP `$rewrite=abp-resource` modifier.

`$redirect` is a modifier for [the basic filtering rules][kb-basic-rules]
so rules with this modifier support all other basic modifiers like `$domain`, `$third-party`, `$script`, etc.

The value of the `$redirect` modifier must be the name of the resource that will be used for redirection.
See the list of [available redirect resources](./wiki/about-redirects.md#redirect-resources).

> Priority of `$redirect` rules is described in the [Knowledge Base][kb-redirect-priority].

### Examples

- `||example.org/script.js$script,redirect=noopjs` — redirects all requests to `script.js`
to the resource named `noopjs`.
- `||example.org/test.mp4$media,redirect=noopmp4-1s` — requests to `example.org/test.mp4` will be redirected
to the resource named `noopmp4-1s`.

> uBlock Origin specifies additional resource name `none` that can disable other redirect rules.
> AdGuard does not support it, use `$badfilter` to disable specific rules.

## Development

### How to build

Install dependencies:

```bash
pnpm install
```

Build dist:

```bash
pnpm build
```

In tsurlfilter directory install and link dependencies, link scriptlets,
move into package and build, and create tsurlfilter link.

```bash
lerna bootstrap

pnpm link --global "@adguard/scriptlets"

cd ./packages/tsurlfilter
pnpm build
yarn link
```

In extension directory install dependencies, link packages and build

``` bash
yarn

yarn link @adguard/scriptlets
yarn link @adguard/tsurlfilter

yarn dev
```

### How to test

Some tests are run in QUnit, some in Vitest.

Run all tests:

```bash
pnpm test
```

1. QUnit is used for testing of scriptlets, redirects, and helpers:

```text
pnpm test:qunit [scriptlets | redirects | helpers]
```

For scriptlets and redirects test run can be more specific:

```bash
// node test run
pnpm test:qunit scriptlets --name set-cookie
pnpm test:qunit redirects --name ati-smarttag

// gui test run
pnpm test:qunit scriptlets --name set-cookie --gui
pnpm test:qunit redirects --name ati-smarttag --gui
```

For debugging purposes after some test is running in gui mode,
you may change your scriptlet/redirect code, and without stopping the server
run in new terminal:

```bash
pnpm test:qunit scriptlets --name set-cookie --build
```

1. Run all jest tests:

```bash
pnpm test:vitest
```

or limit the testing — `include` may be specified in `vitest.config.ts`
or specify [test name](https://vitest.dev/guide/filtering#cli) in command line, e.g.:

```bash
pnpm test:vitest -t isValidScriptletRule
```

To run browserstack tests create `.env` file or copy and rename `.env-example`.

Fill in `` and `` with data from your Browserstack profile.
Run next command:

```bash
pnpm browserstack
```

Tests run by `jest` should be named `.spec.js`, so they will be not included in the `QUnit` tests.

#### Debugging

Use `debugger;` statement where you need it, run

```bash
pnpm test
```

and open needed HTML file from `tests/dist` in your browser with devtools

### How to link packages

Scriptlets library relies on external packages, such as `@adguard/agtree`.
During development, you might need to link these packages using `pnpm link`.

### How to update wiki

There are two scripts to update wiki:

1. `pnpm wiki:build-table` — checks compatibility data updates and updates the compatibility table.
Should be run manually while the release preparation.
1. `pnpm wiki:build-docs` — updates wiki pages `about-scriptlets.md` and `about-redirects.md`.
They are being generated from JSDoc-type comments of corresponding scriptlets and redirects source files
due to `@scriptlet`/`@redirect` and `@description` tags. Runs automatically while the release build.

## Usage

### CoreLibs

For CoreLibs usage you should use `dist/scriptlets.corelibs.json` and `dist/redirects.json`.

File example:

```json
{
"version": "1.0.0",
"scriptlets": [
{
"names": [
"abort-on-property-read",
"ubo-abort-on-property-read.js",
"abp-abort-on-property-read"
],
"scriptlet": "function() { ...code... }"
}
]
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"version": {
"type": "string"
},
"scriptlets": {
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"names": {
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "string"
}
},
"scriptlet": {
"type": "string"
}
}
}
}
}
}
```

### NPM module

#### Installation

You can install the library using

- [Yarn][yarn-pkg-manager-url]: `yarn add @adguard/scriptlets`
- [NPM][npm-pkg-manager-url]: `npm install @adguard/scriptlets`
- [PNPM][pnpm-pkg-manager-url]: `pnpm add @adguard/scriptlets`

## API description

### Scriptlets API

You are welcome to use scriptlets as a CJS modules or ESM modules:

```typescript
const { scriptlets } = require('@adguard/scriptlets');
// or
import { scriptlets } from '@adguard/scriptlets';
```

#### `invoke()`

```typescript
/**
* Returns scriptlet code by `source`.
*
* @param source Scriptlet properties.
*
* @returns Scriptlet code.
* @throws An error on unknown scriptlet name.
*/
declare function getScriptletCode(source: Source): string;
declare const scriptlets: {
invoke: typeof getScriptletCode;
};
```

where `Source` is:

```typescript
interface Source {
/**
* Scriptlet name
*/
name: string;
/**
* Arguments for scriptlet function
*/
args: string[];
/**
* {'extension'|'corelibs'} engine Defines the final form of scriptlet string presentation
*/
engine: string;
/**
* Version
*/
version: string;
/**
* flag to enable printing to console debug information
*/
verbose: boolean;

/**
* Domain name, used to improve logging
*/
domainName?: string;
/**
* Optional unique identifier for a scriptlet instance.
*
* This identifier is used to prevent multiple executions of the same scriptlet on the page.
* If provided, this `uniqueId` will be combined with the scriptlet's `name` and `args`
* to create a unique identifier for the scriptlet call. This identifier is
* stored in the `Window.prototype.toString` object to ensure the scriptlet
* is not executed more than once in the same context.
*
* By avoiding multiple executions, it helps in reducing redundant operations and
* potential side effects that might occur if the same scriptlet is called multiple times.
*
* If `uniqueId` is not specified, no such unique identifier is created, and the
* scriptlet can be called multiple times.
*/
uniqueId?: string;
