Updates

v0.1.7 : support hackIframely. One can enable nodebb-plugin-iframely only in {{..}} without modifications of the iframely plugin.

Usage

Magic

{{ Any Link }}
{{ http://imgur.com/gallery/BxHKr }}

Imgur gallery

If you put any link in MagicBlock then MagicBlock will take care How show it With full customization.
image, imgur gallery are built in, and you can add more or override them.
Support iFramely( Enable iFramely only in {{..}} ) We have three options.
- Option 1) With modified iframely plugin
  - set magicTagADefaultClass: [ iframely ] in MagicBlock admin UI
  - remove original iframely plugin
  - install the modified iframely plugin manualy from github.
  - set iframely Class to iframely in modified iframely admin UI
- Option 2) Client side load : this doesn't implemented yet until somebody wants :)
- Option 3) With an official iframely plugin. ( RECOMENDED )
  - set hackIframely: true in YAML. ( Of course, you need nodebb-plugin-iframely installed )
  - That's it.

AttrString

{{.class1.class2#color1#color2 BODY }}

When a block begins with AttrString( begin with . or # and before a first white space )

Coloring

A first color is for forground , a second is for backgoround color.
Also rgb codes are possible. ( #eee or #e1e1e1 )

{{#red This is red letters}}
{{#red#green This is red letters on green background}}

Coloring

Class

{{.class1 [link](http://example.com)}}` will become `<a href="http://example.com" class="class1">link</a>

YES, class can make things messy, may be too much, usually useless BUT it's disabled by default. Solved!! :)

Wraping with `<span>` or `<div>`

<div> : If an AttrString is ended with double colons (::), followed text will be wraped by <div>
<span> : If an AttrString is ended with a colon (:), followed text will be wraped by <span>
These are usually too much also, just turn it off !! ( by default )

{{.cls1#red:: Any text or link}} will become <div class="cls" style="color:red;">Any text or link</div>
{{.cls1#red: Any text or link}} will become <span class="cls" style="color:red;">Any text or link</span>

Implicit way : If no colon(s) end of an AttrString
- If begins of BODY is any html tag, MagicBlock insert classes and colors into it
  - NOTE : MagicBlock knows nothing of Markdown, but just manage htmls which are already converted by MarkdownIt.
  - With {{ [link](url) }}, what actually MagicBlock will see is {{ <a href="url">link</a> }}
  - With {{ http://a.com }}, what actually MagicBlock will see is {{ <a href="http://a.com">a.com</a>}}
- If begins of BODY is not a html tag, MagicBlock will wrap BODY with <span>

{{.cls1#red ![txt](url)}} will become <img src="url" alt="txt" class="cls" style="color:red;">
{{.cls1#red  text}} will become <span class="cls" style="color:red;">text</span>

And,,

Except #color, this AttrString can easily be too much. Recently I played wiki engins and I may be infected by wiki syntax and macros. Actually, I also plan to split magicblock as a standalone module from the nodeBB plugin, and they will be useful in other project ( At least for mine ).

Macros

A forum admin can add custom macros via admin UI
examples ( built in )

{{br}} -> <br/>
{{ ALERT(info): This Info Box }}
{{ ALERT: This is default alert Box }}
{{ PANEL(success):  Body Only Panel }}
{{ PANEL(warning, This is title): Panel with title }}

Macros

Nested Block

MagicBlock also support nested blocks. Always innder block will be manipulated first.

{{ALERT: These are {{#blue blue letters}} In the Alert Box}}
{{ALERT: This is {{ALERT(info): an Another Alert Box}} in the Alert Box }}

Installation

npm install nodebb-plugin-magicblock

Configuratoin

Currently single YAML string is only supported.

In macros, a number in (..) means number of arguments. Arguments will replace each <<1>> <<2>>.
- BODY of block will replace <<BODY>>
Currently, only <a> tag can go thourgh magic. Others will come later ( but what will be useful after <a> and <img> ? )
If you don't want macros or magicTagA then just false will be better then empty array or dictionary
- macros: false

Example

---
attrStrAllowClass: false
attrStrAllowColor: true
attrStrAllowColon: false
attrStrAllowTwoColon: false
macros:
  br(0): '<br/>'
  ALERT(1): '<div class="alert alert-<<1>>"><<BODY>></div>'
  ALERT(0): '<div class="alert alert-warning"><<BODY>></div>'
  PANEL(1): '<div class="panel panel-<<1>>"><div class="panel-body"><<BODY>></div></div>'
  PANEL(2): '<div class="panel panel-<<1>>"><div class="panel-heading"><<2>></div><div class="panel-body"><<BODY>></div></div>'
magicTagA:
  - [ '.*(jpg|png|gif|svg)$' , true , '<img src="<<URL>>">' ]
  - - '^(?:http:)?//imgur.com/(?:a|gallery)/(\w+)'
    - true
    - '<blockquote class="imgur-embed-pub" lang="en" data-id="a/<<1>>"><a href="<<URL>>">View post on imgur.com</a></blockquote><script async src=s.imgur.com/min/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>'
magicTagADefaultClass: [ iframely ]
