fix: updates to html block #906

jennspencer · 2024-06-16T23:24:27Z

	Fix RM-10043

🧰 Changes

Reworks HTML blocks a bit so they're nicer and easier for the user to interact with (makes sure the HTML is always nicely formatted for slate and the markdown/mdx doc)

Looking good! Had some questions/suggestions, but nothing major.

processor/compile/html-block.ts

-  return `<HTMLBlock${attributes && ' ' + attributes}>{\`${ html }\`}</HTMLBlock>`;
+  const { runScripts, html } = getHProps<HTMLBlock['data']['hProperties']>(node);
+
+  return `<HTMLBlock${runScripts != null ? ' runScripts="' + runScripts + '"' : ''}>{\`\n${ reformatHTML(html) }\n\`}</HTMLBlock>`;


If we're converting this to use a template string, we should probably also make it easier to read while we're at it:

Suggested change

return `<HTMLBlock${runScripts != null ? ' runScripts="' + runScripts + '"' : ''}>{\`\n${ reformatHTML(html) }\n\`}</HTMLBlock>`;

return `<HTMLBlock ${runScripts != null ? `runScripts="${runScripts}"` : ''}>{\`

${reformatHTML(html)}

\`}</HTMLBlock>`;

sure! although i'm aesthetically offended by the extra space that's left if there's no runScripts prop 😂

+  const { runScripts, html } = getHProps<HTMLBlock['data']['hProperties']>(node);

Ahhh, so it looks like you're setting the runScripts prop to a string on compile here. I'll betchya anything that's the reason it's sometimes coming in as a string, per my above question? Can we update this to be a JSX-y value instead?

- `runScripts="${runScripts}"` + `runScripts={${runScripts}}`

If I'm understanding correctly, I believe ^that should resolve to true rather than "true"!

for some reason MDX was treating {true} as an object. it's on my list to work out, but i had just put this in as a stop-gap so the functionality could be tested!

Some questions and I really think we shouldn't munge the html value.

processor/transform/readme-components.ts

processor/transform/readme-components.ts

+      const { position } = node;
+      const children = getChildren<HTMLBlock['children']>(node);
+      const { runScripts } = getAttrs<Pick<HTMLBlock['data']['hProperties'], 'runScripts'>>(node);
+      const html = formatHTML(children.map(({ value }) => value).join(''));


I think trimming the content is fine, but I worry that changing the indent could be problematic. I'm inclined to say we shouldn't munge the string beyond trimming leading and trailing whitespce?

yeah i'm not a big fan of the munging, which is why i tried to keep it to a minimum. if you just .trim(), the raw HTML displays in a messy way in the widget code editor/the recompiled markdown :(

What kind of messy way, cause it seems wrong to me: https://github.com/readmeio/markdown/pull/910/files#diff-3abd1a08f8ea2dfcc23db22057e28a7278deda6fb0f0e81583b1babe581edf76R17-R29

it reindents the HTML so it's not at the same indentation as the main HTMLBlock component. i admit it was a subjective style choice, but it helps make the md doc easier to read?

(while also keeping the original structure as much as possible)

(and i totally admit that there are a few scenarios here i need to account for)

Code looks good! But I think the failing test with whitespace is a blocker. And I'm not sure I understand the motivation for this???

I understand trimming so we can get something like:

<HTMLBlock>{`
...
`}</HTMLBlock

That's nice and good. But I'm still not keen on messing with the internal whitespace. I think leaving it unindented would be fine:

<HTMLBlock>{`
<h2>
  <img>
  Hello!
</h2>
`}</HTMLBlock>

Is there something I'm missing with regards to the editor? The thing that makes this important to me, is that if we start applying a particular formatting to this block, and it turns out to be a problem later, we'd probably have to run a big migration to fix it.

jennspencer · 2024-06-20T19:51:55Z

@kellyjosephprice i stg greg made a comment somewhere that he preferred the scenario i was trying to munge, but i can't find anywhere it so it's possible i'm losing my mind.

if the user does decide to indent the html in the HTMLBlock, it'll show up in the widget's code editor with the indents though. is that enough of an issue to do something about or just leave it? i'm wildly ambivalent, mostly because users probably tend to stick with their preferred way of editing (editor vs raw markdown)

oh and i'm totally fixing the test, just had to figure out what was the "correct" outcome of it first 😂

Sorry and thank you!
