A web interface for using websocket-based interfaces, such as:

An online version of the page can be accessed here.

An offline version of the page can be downloaded from the docs folder or build locally by your own.

Building

# Install pnpm
npm install --global pnpm

# Install dependencies
pnpm install

# Build the Page
pnpm run build

# Optional - serve the Page via local Server
pnpm run preview

The page can be opened via the index.html inside the "docs" folder and is usable without the need of hosting it via a server.

FAQ

I can't connect to the websocket with textractor-websocket.

  • This plugin requires that textractor captures at least one line before starting the server - connect manually afterwards

I can't connect to the websocket with TextractorSender.

  • Make sure you are using the right port which is 9001

I can't connect to the websocket with a different plugin/still can't connect to the websocket with one of the mentioned plugins.

  • Make sure your firewall is not blocking the required ports. You can also check if another extension is interfering by trying out the page with a clean temporary profile and disabled extensions
  • For Brave Users: If you are using a hosted / online version of the page disable the brave shield for the domain to allow the usage of unsafe websocket connections. Alternatively try out the local / offline version which you can find in the docs folder

Can I use this page with extensions like Clipboard Inserter or lap-clipboard-inserter?

  • When "Enable external Clipboard Monitor" is checked text appended as paragraph to the page body will be taken over by the app. Make sure to enable this setting before the actual extension to avoid wrongly pasted elements

How do I customize the page with CSS?

  • You can use normal CSS syntax and rules via the "Custom CSS" Field. The content will be appended as style node to the page header

How can I delete lines?

How can I edit a line?

  • You can modify the content of a line by double clicking on it. Clicking somewhere outside will exit the edit mode. Changes to the text will automatically be reflected in the character counter

What is covered by "Undo last Action"?

Note: By default, the undo history is stored in memory only. If you want to keep it across tab reloads, make sure to enable the respective setting.

Can I move the data to another device / browser?

  • Clicking on the icon will export the current time value, notes, displayed lines and action history (settings will not be exported)
  • Clicking on the icon while holding the "ALT" key on the keyboard lets you select a previously exported file for import. Note that all existing data will be overwritten

The Dialog to apply Settings to current Lines or Storage like "Store X persistently", "Prevent Last Line Duplicate", "Remove all Whitespace" etc. will not be triggered by switching between Presets. You can still execute them by toggling respective Setting.
Window Title Lets you set the current document title. This can be used with Yomichan to tag your created cards (with the {document-title} marker).
Primary WebSocket URL of the primary WebSocket to which you want to connect.
Secondary WebSocket URL of the secondary WebSocket to which you want to connect.
Font Size The font size, in number of pixels.
Online Font Lets you select a font from a predefined selection. An internet connection is required in order for this work.
Prevent Last Line Duplicate This will prevent the insertion/pasting of a line if the text is equal to one of the last n configured lines.
AFK Timer (s) Number of seconds after which the timer will automatically pause without page interaction (no new line, text selection, or pointer move).
Adjust Timer after AFK If enabled, the timer will be subtracted by the configured AFK Timer (s) value whenever the timer was paused due to no page interaction.
Enable external Clipboard Monitor If enabled, this will allow the texthooker page to handle lines pasted by extensions like Clipboard Inserter or lap-clipboard-inserter.
Show Preset Quick Switch If enabled and you have more than 2 preset stored, this will display a preset selector in the page header for quick access to your presets.
Skip Reset Confirmations If enabled, reset / delete actions like "Reset Lines" will be immediately executed without asking for confirmation.
Store Stats persistently If enabled, the stats (time, speed, etc.) will be stored in your local browser storage. This means the stats will be available after tab reloads, etc.
Store Notes persistently If enabled, the text within the notes section will be stored in your local browser storage.
Store Lines persistently If enabled, the inserted/pasted lines will be stored in your local browser storage.
Store Action History persistently If enabled, the revertible actions will be stored in your local browser storage.
Enable Paste If enabled, this will allow the user to manually paste new lines to the texthooker page (i.e. with ctrl+v).
Block Copy from Page If enabled, this will block the next line insertion by an external clipboard monitor after copying text from the page
Allow Paste during Pause If enabled, this will allow the page to paste new lines even with a paused timer.
Allow new Line during Pause If enabled, this will allow the page to insert new lines from other sources than pasting even with a paused timer.
Autostart Timer by Paste during Pause If enabled, the time will automatically re-start if it was paused and new lines were pasted.
Autostart Timer by Line during Pause If enabled, the time will automatically re-start if it was paused and new lines were inserted by sources than pasting.
Flash on missed Line If enabled, the page will flash every time a line is inserted/pasted if your timer is paused. These lines will be ignored from stats collection.
Prevent Global Duplicate This is the same as "Prevent Last Line Duplicate", except the line is checked against the entire document. The line will not be inserted/pasted if it is found anywhere within the document.
Display Text vertically If enabled, the lines will be displayed vertically instead horizontally.
Reverse Line Order If enabled, the new lines will be appended on top (horizontal mode) / left (vertical mode) instead of bottom / right respectively.
Preserve Whitespace If enabled, all existing whitespace (such as spaces, new line characters, etc.) within the line will be fully displayed. If left disabled, newlines and multiple spaces in a row will be collapsed to a singular space. This has no effect if the whitespace is already removed (i.e. with the Remove all Whitespace option enabled).
Remove all Whitespace If enabled, all whitespace will be removed from the lines before they are inserted into the page.
Show Timer If enabled, the page will display the current passed (active) time in the header.
Show Speed If enabled, the page will display the current characters per hour in the header.
Show Character Count If enabled, the page will display the current number of displayed characters within the page.
Show Line Count If enabled, the page will display the current number of inserted lines within the page.

Continuous Reconnect If enabled, supresses Connection Error Messages and retries to connect to the Websocket Url continuously.
Custom CSS Lets you insert custom CSS rules to customize the page further.

Known Issues

  • High number of displayed characters may slow down the page performance due to the current greedy way of counting characters etc.
  • The horizontal reading mode performs overall better than the vertical one
  • Line breaks added manually during editing a line are sometimes removed
  • The page was build with desktop usage in mind - following guides (e. g. like this one) to access the page via tablet or mobile devices may have a limited user experience or functionality
