Update ParsoidExtensionAPI to be a coherent and functional extension API to aid extension implementations
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

We should use Parsoid's native implementation of several extensions (Cite, Pre, Nowiki, Gallery, Poem) to identify a narrow but coherent and consistent extension API that is sufficient for the extensions to do their job painlessly. This will require thinking about which of Parsoid's internal concepts are first-class language / MediaWiki concepts and which are Parsoid's implementation-specific concepts and use that to design the appropriate interface that can be published a first draft extension API.

But, perhaps the first step is to audit what of Parsoid's implementation details are currently exposed to the natively implemented extensions.

The above gerrit patches have moved the needle on this by doing a cleanup of extension code in the Parsoid repo by reducing exposure of Parsoid internals. But more work is needed. See commit message of gerrit 565563

[mediawiki/services/parsoid@master] Cite: Remove more Parsoid internals knowledge

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/570919

One thing I am finding is that Cite (and possibly our other extensions in the Parsoid codebase) have knowledge of DOM state and how Parsoid optimizes handling of data-* attributes by keeping them off to the side in a a bag. So, we can resolve this situation in one of two ways:

  1. Extensions don't have knowledge of the DOM state and needn't have to putz around with visitAndLoad, visitAndStore gymnastics for perf optimization, the API has to handle that transparently as far as possible. In this mode, we document the fact that extensions shouldn't make any assumptions about how / where data-attributes of DOM nodes are stored since the implementation details might change. We could require extensions to go through provided API / helpers to read/write data-* attributes.
  1. We need to document DOM states (raw DOM, post-processed DOM) and make those first-class Parsoid DOM concepts and require extensions to be aware what state the DOM is in and use appropriate helper methods.

Not yet sure what is desirable.

Here is the list of helper utilities used in all of src/Ext/*. Some of them are just convenience helpers. But, the visitAndLoad/StoreDataAttribs as well as ContentUtils helpers expose Parsoid implementation knowledge and need to be handled as per the previous comment.

ContentUtils::ppToDOM

[mediawiki/services/parsoid@master] Pass $extApi, not $env to extension callbacks

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/575093

When all the patches in gerrit are reviewed and merged, we will be left with the following imports in the src/Ext directory:

use Wikimedia\Assert\Assert;
use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\ParsoidExtensionAPI;
use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\Extension;
use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\ExtensionTag;
use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Tokens\DomSourceRange;

  • In a parsing team meeting, we agreed that for now, we'll expose DSR offsets as a first-class concept to extensions. So, DomSourceRange, KV (which capture offsets for extension arguments), and SourceRange objects look okay right now.
  • DOMCompat is also okay to expose since that is just a compatibility layer on top of libxml
  • ParsoidExtensionAPI, Extension, ExensionTag are okay of course since they are the core of the Parsoid's exposed API / extension interface.

So, next steps are:

  • What is the best way to export the Tokens\* classes so we don't expose more than we want to?
  • What is the best way to export the util helpers across multiple class files in a way that is maintainable for us ( we tend to refactor and tweak helpers, and by exposing them, we increase the risk of breakage ), and in a way that is easier to use for extension authors ( without having to hunt around various helper files ), and that also feels coherent vs. a rag-tag collection of method that happen to be used right now by these extensions.

This pretty much brings this first phase of cleanup to an end. There is the stray KV use which I think I can get rid of ... but needs a bit of thought. We should also consider looking at how coherent the ParsoidExtensionAPI interface (as defined by the exposed set of methods are) and do any necessary adjustments to naming and adding / removing methods to bring whatever coherence is necessary. Once the last patch of the chain is merged and we do any other additional cleanup, I think we can publish the first version of a draft extension API.

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/583485

With that last patch in the long chain, here is what the Parsoid class imports looks like:

[subbu@earth:~/work/wmf/parsoid/src/Ext] git grep -h '^use ' */* | grep Parsoid | sort | uniq -c
      2 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\DomSourceRange;
      1 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\SelserData;
      1 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\ContentModelHandlerExtension;
      7 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\DOMDataUtils;
      7 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\Extension;
      8 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\ExtensionTag;
     16 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\ParsoidExtensionAPI;
      4 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\PHPUtils;
      3 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\Util;
      2 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Ext\WTUtils;
      9 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Utils\DOMCompat;
      7 use Wikimedia\Parsoid\Utils\DOMUtils;

So, there is no more cheating -- although the API itself has a couple methods that introduces cheating through the backdoor. We can purge them with a bit more work. But for now, it looks like we can call this first phase - of crafting the Parsoid Extension API and using them inside Parsoid's implementations of a bunch of extensions - done! (i.e. once the patches are reviewed and merged).
