unable to load libs from url

[jgroom33]

these docs suggest one of these configs should work:

• libs.url

{
  "libraries": [
    {
      "title": {
        "main": "Ciena"
      },
      "entries": [
        {
          "id": "ciena-graphics",
          "title": {
            "main": "Graphics"
          },
          "desc": {
            "main": "Collection of Graphics for Ciena"
          },
          "libs": [
            {
              "title": {
                "main": "Graphics for Ciena"
              },
"url":"gist.githubusercontent.com/jgroom33/fb2ab4a478547ca1fc5e0c292ca08ea7/raw/135c78ba8cd82f469d88b36024864a0bfe35388a/ciena.xml"
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "defaultCustomLibraries": ["ciena-graphics"]
}

• defaultCustomLibraries

{
  "defaultCustomLibraries": [ 
"gist.githubusercontent.com/jgroom33/fb2ab4a478547ca1fc5e0c292ca08ea7/raw/135c78ba8cd82f469d88b36024864a0bfe35388a/ciena.xml"
  ]
}

I attempted the following modifications:

• url encoded/not
• with/without https
• raw gist with/without <mxlibrary> wrapper

Have same problem with MacOs version.

{
  "libraries": [
    {
      "title": {
        "main": "Collection"
      },
      "entries": [
        {
          "id": "test-collection",
          "title": {
            "main": "Collection"
          },
          "desc": {
            "main": "My personal collection for Draw.Io/Diagrams.net"
          },
          "libs": [
            {
              "title": {
                "main": "Azure Compute"
              },
              "prefetch": true,
              "url": "Uhttps%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Fpacodelacruz%2Fdiagrams-net-azure-libraries%2Fmaster%2FAzure-Compute.xml"
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

But have this strange error when Shape collection selected:

In a same time if i use same configuration for web app all is ok (exception only url should be w/o 'U' and decoded):

a similar behavior exists in the vs-code extension: hediet/vscode-drawio#210

[davidjgraph]

This is expected, the desktop is designed to be network isolated for security reasons, remote calls shouldn't work.

[Mikecom32]

@davidjgraph Could this be reconsidered? We have a very similar use case to the functionality @jgroom33 described in hediet/vscode-drawio#210

For what it's worth, there is other functionality inside the desktop app that accesses network resources. For instance, importing fonts via the customFonts and fontCss configuration attributes happily imports fonts from public URLs. This functionality also exists in the GUI. The client also includes a "From Template URL" button in the new diagram dialog that specifically imports from a network resource.

[davidjgraph]

We have a CSP that controls access to specific domains. This would require all controls to be removed, we can't do that.
