Where is the js BBCode tag parser

[brunoais]

Can you please take me to where the BBCode tag parser for the javascript part is?
I'm interested in the parts that parse each specific tag according to its settings and restrictions, not the part that deals with the actual HTML output building, just where it processes the restrictions and decides the actual transformations to use.

The BBCodes parser is in src/Plugins/BBCodes/Parser.js. It's a port of Parser.php in the same directory.

Tag rules are applied by the main parser in processStartTag().

Although I could get a lot of content from there... I couldn't get how do you deal with BBCode that follows more interesting approaches such as 1 param into 2 params or 2 params into 1 param like you describe in the CodeMonkey documentation. Where is the js code to do that?

[JoshyPHP]

They're attribute preprocessors and they're handled in s9e\TextFormatter\Parser::executeAttributePreprocessors() or the equivalent JS function. It's an internal data structure though and as such it's subject to change without warning. You should generally not mess with them.

I just want to get the Regex processing you use to get it up and working ^^. That should do it.

[JoshyPHP]

All the processing is done in executeAttributePreprocessors() but there's no public API for it. Not sure what you're looking for exactly, what are you trying to do?

Ah! Found something here:
TextFormatter/src/Parser/BuiltInFilters.js
This is part of what I wanted. The rest should be in the other answer.

I'm after the adaptations required to make a WYSIWYG editor on a client which uses TextFormatter on the server, for phpBB.
