Ability for a standalone file:// is broken

Wohlstand commented 4 years ago

Hello!

I have documentation for my project at this repository that I gradually porting from a raw HTML into Docute: https://github.com/WohlSoft/PGE-Editor-Help/tree/docute

However, since some moment it no more works locally and it showing blank pages... (no idea how it worked before, maybe after Firefox 68 release).

I did an attempt to disable CORS:

fetchOptions: {
    mode: 'no-cors',
},

however, it now showing just blank files. The source path I use just "./". Снимок экрана_2020-05-06_02-35-32

How I did use this?

I had to use the latest master state.
I did the npm install, and then npm run-script build at repository root.
I copied "dist" and "lib" directories into the separate folder at my documentation root (_lib sub-directory).

I did the simple HTML file to carry the documentation:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">
<title>Moondust Editor - Manual</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="_lib/docute/dist/docute.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="docute"></div>
<script src="_lib/docute/dist/docute.js"></script>
<script src="index.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

In index.js I had to declare the documentation tree itself:
```
let docuteSourceRoot = './';
```

new Docute({ target: '#docute', title: 'Moondust Editor - Documentation', sourcePath: docuteSourceRoot, darkThemeToggler: true, fetchOptions: { mode: 'no-cors', }, detectSystemDarkTheme: true, highlight: ['typescript', 'bash'], editLinkBase: 'https://github.com/WohlSoft/PGE-Editor-Help/edit/master/', editLinkText: 'Edit this page on GitHub', sidebar: [ { title: 'Main', children: [ { title: 'Intro', link: '/' } ] } });

There doesn't seem be a README.md which it was trying to load in your repo? What's the error shown in your devtools?

A minimal reproduction would help, you can create one with https://codesandbox.io

Hello! It's a minimal example: docute-issue282-sample.zip

I had to store all pre-built dependencies at the _lib folder and re-using it locally.

It works if it stored on a web server and accessed via HTTP(S), however, when I opening "ko.html" from a local file system directly (accessed via file://), pages showing blank.

In Firefox's console here is no output. Before a moment, I had error against CORS request, however when I had to set the "no-cors", an error has gone, however, no content shown...

AHA! in Yandex-Browser I got the next error:

Fetch API cannot load file:///..../README.md. URL scheme "file" is not supported.

How my example works when it's opened locally without any sort of web server: Снимок экрана от 2020-05-08 01-53-45
