Fixes #2722
Fixes #2746

Background
Right now we have a mix of 3 systems:

  1. Our own BasicEditorDriver for inserting/removing text
  2. mdarea for continuing lists and indent/outdent (in markdown)
  3. Some of Github's markdown-toolbar-element for buttons/commands (in markdown)

Getting them to work together can be a pain. This PR combines (1) and (3), and the accompanying PR to markdown removes (2) for now. I hope to implement / support (2) in core eventually, since continuing lists is quite useful.

Changes proposed in this pull request:
Move the insertText and styleSelectedText utils to core
This simplifies the markdown extension and allows other extensions to use these features.
It also allows undoing stuff like inserting replies/mentions.

In future versions, I'd like to include support for continuing lists and indentation.

Confirmed

  • Frontend changes: tested on a local Flarum installation.
  • Backend changes: tests are green (run composer test).

This simplifies the markdown extension and allows BBCode to use these features.

I can confirm that the changes now work correctly. I'm not the best person for reviewing the JS code here so if another review want's the review the actual code that'd be perfect.


this.el.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('input', { bubbles: true, cancelable: true }));
items.add('submit', function (e) {
if ((e.metaKey || e.ctrlKey) && e.key === 'Enter') {

Is Win + Enter causing a post to submit intentional, as it seems like it will do.

In Markdown, we check against the user agent to decide between Cmd and Ctrl.

Maybe we could add the getOS helper I had in a PR a while back to make this info part of core and available to extensions instead of duplicating logic.

Something like app.operatingSystem or window.__operatingSystem?

In the long term, I'd to introduce some form of "normalize keys" util like exists in prosemirror, which turns Meta-KEY into the appropriate cmd vs ctrl. I haven't found a library yet.

For now, I'm not sure this PR is the best place to change existing behavior?

If this is the current action of MDArea/Prosmirror then I say we keep it this way for now and modify it later once we normalize things.
