parse method

  1. @override
Node? parse(
  1. BlockParser parser
)

Parses a table into its three parts:

  • a head row of head cells (<th> cells)
  • a divider of hyphens and pipes (not rendered)
  • many body rows of body cells (<td> cells)

Implementation

@override
Node? parse(BlockParser parser) {
  final columnCount = _columnCount(parser.next!);
  final headCells = _columnCount(parser.current);
  final valBuf = StringBuffer('${parser.current}\n${parser.next!}');
  parser.advance();
  if (columnCount != headCells) {
    return null;
  }

  // advance header and divider of hyphens.
  parser.advance();

  while (!parser.isDone && !BlockSyntax.isAtBlockEnd(parser)) {
    valBuf.write('\n${parser.current}');
    parser.advance();
  }

  return Element.empty(EmbeddableTable.tableType)
    ..attributes['data'] = valBuf.toString();
}
