Description

As part of the project to use Parsoid everywhere, we are bridging HTML output differences between Parsoid and core parser. One of these is in the HTML generated for media output.

As part of T251641: RFC: HTML element for inline media from wikitext, where we initially wanted to switch core output to <figure-inline> tag for inline media, after TechCom review and discussion, we decided to switch Parsoid back to <span> tag instead. The change in Parsoid will come with a version bump as well.

Before we roll out this change in Parsoid, we need all Parsoid clients to be prepared to handle either <span> or <figure-inline> tags for a brief period. Same with any necessary CSS selectors. Presumably, this will be a simple change.

I've created a common task and tagged all known Parsoid clients. Feel free to create a specific subtask for your own client, if necessary.

VE still has backwards compatibility for <span>, but is treating <figure-inline> as canonical (for new images). We can change this back.

Does this affect gallery output? I note that that uses figure-inline too.

What are galleries switching to, figure or span? Has that been implemented yet, should we update our code now?

@ssastry, When VE updates the code, our frontend will function as expected, but we need to do some code changes and test updates in CX-cxserver , espcially when we do image adaptation and sanitization of machine translation. Do you have any timeline for deployment?

ssastry added a comment.Nov 19 2020, 2:45 PM

There are a series of code deployments to unify core and Parsoid output. The first of those is to change Parsoid output for inline media.

Ideally, we would like this first Parsoid change from 'figure-inline' -> 'span' for inline media to ride the next train (Dec 1 - 3), but it depends on whether all Parsoid clients can get their switchover code merged by then or not.

Sorry for being unclear. For the purpose of this task, we'd just like to do s/figure-inline/span/ everywhere. Since galleries are currently using <figure-inline>, they'd switch to using <span> too. That's what I glibly meant above.

Parsoid should already be backwards compatible with this change (we started with <span>s before T118520), so feel free to update your code to start producing them for new inline images whenever you're ready. But note that Parsoid won't be outputting <span>s until all the clients are ready to handle them (this task) so make sure your code continues to be backwards compatible in accepting <figure-inline> for the time being.

However, you bring up a good point in that the outcome of the RFC ( T251641#6212416 ) specified that galleries would switch to using <figure>.
I think that's a separate task from what's being asked here so I opened T268250 to see how we'd like to proceed there.

It looks like StructuredDiscussions is backwards compatible for T173972. The above patch in T266143#6667623 just updates the test suite.
