(gif is with 6x CPU throttling to make the effect more visible)
This is the first of a few diffs I'm working on to make dropping images
onto the canvas feel a lot faster.
There are three main changes here:
1. We operate on `Blob`s and `File`s rather than data urls. This saves a
fair bit on converting to/from base64 all the time. I've updated our
`MediaHelper` APIs to encourage the same in consumers.
2. We only check the max canvas size (slow) if images are above a
certain dimension that we consider "safe" (8k x 8k)
3. Switching from the `downscale` npm library to canvas native
downscaling. that library claims to give better results than the
browser, but hasn't been updated in ~7 years. in modern browsers, we can
opt-in to native high-quality image smoothing to achieve similar results
much faster than with an algorithm implemented in pure JS.
I want to follow this up with a system to show image placeholders whilst
we're waiting for long-running operations like resizing etc but i'm
going to split that out into its own diff as it'll involve some fairly
complex changes to the history management API.
### Change Type
- [x] `major` — Breaking change
[^1]: publishes a `patch` release, for devDependencies use `internal`
[^2]: will not publish a new version
### Test Plan
1. Tested manually, unit tests & end-to-end tests pass
Adds validation for urls we use for our shapes and assets. This PR
includes a migration so we should check that existing rooms still load
correctly. There might be some that won't, but that means that they had
invalid url set.
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
- [ ] `minor` — New feature
- [ ] `major` — Breaking change
- [ ] `dependencies` — Changes to package dependencies[^1]
- [ ] `documentation` — Changes to the documentation only[^2]
- [ ] `tests` — Changes to any test code only[^2]
- [ ] `internal` — Any other changes that don't affect the published
package[^2]
- [ ] I don't know
[^1]: publishes a `patch` release, for devDependencies use `internal`
[^2]: will not publish a new version
### Test Plan
1. Existing rooms should still load correctly (there should be no
validation errors).
2. Adding new images and videos should also work (test both local and
multiplayer rooms as they handle assets differently).
- [x] Unit Tests
- [ ] End to end tests
### Release Notes
- Add validation to urls.
