imageView fails

[npetri13]

Hello and thanks for ur great work!

I've run into one issue related to images. I've derived from ParmaRenderable as discribed as follows:

struct AlculateRender: ParmaRenderable {
  func imageView(with urlString: String) -> AnyView {
	AnyView(Text(urlString))
  }
}

and initialize Parma with it. But the imageView function never got executed. So started a bit of debugging and the Image ElementComposer never called the imageView function.

struct ImageElementComposer: BlockElementComposer {
    func view(in context: ComposingContext, render: ParmaRenderable) -> AnyView {
        guard let urlString = context.attributes["destination"] else {
            return AnyView(EmptyView())
        }
        return render.imageView(with: urlString)
    }
}

The guard statement fails and it returns the EmptyView. The context.attributes contains one key/value element = ["xml:space", "preserve"], which is weired.

I tried the following markdown:

Before i start further debugging, i may ask if u have any idea about that.

Thanks in advance

Hi,
Thank you for your feedback. The reason that the image composer failed to retrieve the destination is the image composer cannot process text inside it. To fix the problem, simply remove the text from the image notation.

This is a very good issue, thank you so much. Gonna try to fix it, and hopefully, it will be fine in version 1.0.

Hi @npetri13 ,

In the latest release (v0.2.0), Parma's ImageElementComposer can correctly process the alt text inside it and get the destination.

Thanks again!

Hi @dasautoooo ,

wow, awesome response time. It works, i was able to implement a customized renderer.

As u told before it works by leaving the description empty. I could have bet i tried this, obviously i didn't.

Have a nice day!
