apply method

@override Delta? apply(Delta document, int index, String text)

Applies heuristic rule to an insert operation on a document and returns resulting Delta.

Implementation

@override
Delta? apply(Delta document, int index, String text) {
  // This rule applies to a space inserted after a link, so we can ignore
  // everything else.
  if (text != ' ') return null;

  final iter = DeltaIterator(document);
  final previous = iter.skip(index);
  // No previous operation means no link.
  if (previous == null) return null;

  // Split text of previous operation in lines and words and take last word to test.
  final candidate = previous.data.split('\n').last.split(' ').last;
  try {
    final link = Uri.parse(candidate);
    if (!['https', 'http'].contains(link.scheme)) {
      // TODO: might need a more robust way of validating links here.
      return null;
    }
    final attributes = previous.attributes ?? <String, dynamic>{};

    // Do nothing if already formatted as link.
    if (attributes.containsKey(NotusAttribute.link.key)) return null;

    attributes.addAll(NotusAttribute.link.fromString(link.toString()).toJson());
    return Delta()
      ..retain(index - candidate.length)
      ..retain(candidate.length, attributes)
      ..insert(text, previous.attributes);
  } on FormatException {
    return null; // Our candidate is not a link.
  }
