CommentsRepository (comments/comments)

@ckeditor/ckeditor5-comments/src/comments/commentsrepository

class

Stores the list of CommentThread and provides event-driven API for managing them. It is also responsible for using the comments adapter to communicate with the data source.

CommentsRepository is a context plugin. It can be added to a context or to an editor. Add it to the context configuration if you use Context in your integration.

The event-driven API makes it possible to attach a listener to each action that changes comment data. Using different event priorities allows to attach an action before the main action ('low' priority) or after the main action ('high' priority). It works very similar to decorate.

Sample usage:

// Get the comments repository:
const commentsRepository = editor.plugins.get( 'CommentsRepository' );

// Create a new, empty comment thread on a DOM form field element:
commentsRepository.openNewCommentThread( { channelId, target: formFieldElement } );

// Get all comment threads:
commentsRepository.getCommentThreads();

// Set the adapter:
commentsRepository.adapter = {
	// ...
};

For more information about the comments adapter see CommentsAdapter.

activeCommentThread : null | CommentThread

The currently active comment thread. An annotation with this thread will be marked as active.
adapter : CommentsAdapter

Parameters

adapter : CommentsAdapter

Methods

constructor( context )

Parameters

context : Editor | Context
addCommentThread( commentThreadData ) → undefined | CommentThread
Adds a new comment thread.

When a target is provided, the comment annotation will be attached to this target.

Use this method to load the comments data during the editor initialization if you do not use the adapter integration.

Note: This method fires the event-addCommentThread event and the default behavior is added as a 'normal' priority listener. It makes it possible to cancel the method or call some custom code before or after the default behavior is executed.

Note: The comments adapter will send the data only if commentThreadData.comments is not empty and commentThreadData.isFromAdapter is set to false.

See also CommentsRepository#openNewCommentThread().

An example of loading a comment thread on editor initialization:
```
commentsRepository.addCommentThread( {
	threadId: 'thread-id',
	channelId: 'channel-id',
	comments: [
		{
			commentId: 'comment-1',      // String
			authorId: 'author-id',       // String
			content: 'First comment',    // String
			createdAt: new Date( ... )   // Date instance
		},
		// ...
	],
	target: () => ...,
	// Added during initialization, so do not call the adapter:
	isFromAdapter: true
} );
```
Parameters

commentThreadData : Partial<AddCommentThreadEventData>

The data of the comment thread to add.

Defaults to ...

Returns

undefined | CommentThread

The added comment thread.

bind( bindProperties ) → MultiBindChain
Binds observable properties to other objects implementing the Observable interface.

Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of property bindings with some additional examples.

Consider two objects: a button and an associated command (both Observable).

A simple property binding could be as follows:
```
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled' );
```
or even shorter:
```
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );
```
which works in the following way:
- button.isEnabled instantly equals command.isEnabled,
- whenever command.isEnabled changes, button.isEnabled will immediately reflect its value.
Note: To release the binding, use unbind.

You can also "rename" the property in the binding by specifying the new name in the to() chain:
```
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isWorking' );
```
It is possible to bind more than one property at a time to shorten the code:
```
button.bind( 'isEnabled', 'value' ).to( command );
```
which corresponds to:
```
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );
button.bind( 'value' ).to( command );
```
The binding can include more than one observable, combining multiple data sources in a custom callback:
```
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled', ui, 'isVisible',
	( isCommandEnabled, isUIVisible ) => isCommandEnabled && isUIVisible );
```
Using a custom callback allows processing the value before passing it to the target property:
```
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'value', value => value === 'heading1' );
```
It is also possible to bind to the same property in an array of observables. To bind a button to multiple commands (also Observables) so that each and every one of them must be enabled for the button to become enabled, use the following code:
```
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).toMany( [ commandA, commandB, commandC ], 'isEnabled',
	( isAEnabled, isBEnabled, isCEnabled ) => isAEnabled && isBEnabled && isCEnabled );
```
Parameters

bindProperties : Array<'off' | 'on' | 'once' | 'listenTo' | 'stopListening' | 'fire' | 'delegate' | 'stopDelegating' | 'set' | 'bind' | 'unbind' | 'decorate' | 'destroy' | 'context' | 'isReadOnly' | 'init' | 'adapter' | '_permissions' | 'activeCommentThread' | '_adapter' | '_threads' | '_threadToController' | '_viewToController' | '_readOnlyChannels' | 'setPermissions' | 'addCommentThread' | 'openNewCommentThread' | 'hasCommentThread' | 'updateCommentThread' | 'getCommentThread' | 'fetchCommentThread' | 'getCommentThreads' | 'setActiveCommentThread' | 'switchReadOnly' | 'createCommentThreadController' | 'getPermissions' | '_attachCommentThread' | '_bindAnnotationToEditors' | '_unbindEditors' | '_removeCommentThread' | '_detachCommentThread' | '_updateComment' | '_removeComment'>

inherited
decorate( methodName ) → void
Turns the given methods of this object into event-based ones. This means that the new method will fire an event (named after the method) and the original action will be plugged as a listener to that event.

Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of decorating methods with some additional examples.

Decorating the method does not change its behavior (it only adds an event), but it allows to modify it later on by listening to the method's event.

For example, to cancel the method execution the event can be stopped:
```
class Foo extends ObservableMixin() {
	constructor() {
		super();
		this.decorate( 'method' );
	}

	method() {
		console.log( 'called!' );
	}
}

const foo = new Foo();
foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => {
	evt.stop();
}, { priority: 'high' } );

foo.method(); // Nothing is logged.
```
Note: The high priority listener has been used to execute this particular callback before the one which calls the original method (which uses the "normal" priority).

It is also possible to change the returned value:
```
foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => {
	evt.return = 'Foo!';
} );

foo.method(); // -> 'Foo'
```
Finally, it is possible to access and modify the arguments the method is called with:
```
method( a, b ) {
	console.log( `${ a }, ${ b }`  );
}

// ...

foo.on( 'method', ( evt, args ) => {
	args[ 0 ] = 3;

	console.log( args[ 1 ] ); // -> 2
}, { priority: 'high' } );

foo.method( 1, 2 ); // -> '3, 2'
```
Parameters

methodName : 'off' | 'on' | 'once' | 'listenTo' | 'stopListening' | 'fire' | 'delegate' | 'stopDelegating' | 'set' | 'bind' | 'unbind' | 'decorate' | 'destroy' | 'context' | 'isReadOnly' | 'init' | 'adapter' | '_permissions' | 'activeCommentThread' | '_adapter' | '_threads' | '_threadToController' | '_viewToController' | '_readOnlyChannels' | 'setPermissions' | 'addCommentThread' | 'openNewCommentThread' | 'hasCommentThread' | 'updateCommentThread' | 'getCommentThread' | 'fetchCommentThread' | 'getCommentThreads' | 'setActiveCommentThread' | 'switchReadOnly' | 'createCommentThreadController' | 'getPermissions' | '_attachCommentThread' | '_bindAnnotationToEditors' | '_unbindEditors' | '_removeCommentThread' | '_detachCommentThread' | '_updateComment' | '_removeComment'

listenTo( emitter, event, callback, [ options ] ) → void
Registers a callback function to be executed when an event is fired in a specific (emitter) object.

Events can be grouped in namespaces using :. When namespaced event is fired, it additionally fires all callbacks for that namespace.
```
// myEmitter.on( ... ) is a shorthand for myEmitter.listenTo( myEmitter, ... ).
myEmitter.on( 'myGroup', genericCallback );
myEmitter.on( 'myGroup:myEvent', specificCallback );

// genericCallback is fired.
myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup' );
// both genericCallback and specificCallback are fired.
myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup:myEvent' );
// genericCallback is fired even though there are no callbacks for "foo".
myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup:foo' );

inherited
set( values ) → void
Creates and sets the value of an observable properties of this object. Such a property becomes a part of the state and is observable.

It accepts a single object literal containing key/value pairs with properties to be set.

This method throws the observable-set-cannot-override error if the observable instance already has a property with the given property name. This prevents from mistakenly overriding existing properties and methods, but means that foo.set( 'bar', 1 ) may be slightly slower than foo.bar = 1.

In TypeScript, those properties should be declared in class using declare keyword. In example:
```
public declare myProp1: number;
public declare myProp2: string;

constructor() {
	this.set( {
		'myProp1: 2,
		'myProp2: 'foo'
	} );
}
```
Parameters

values : object

An object with name=>value pairs.

Returns

void
inherited
set( name, value ) → void
Creates and sets the value of an observable property of this object. Such a property becomes a part of the state and is observable.

This method throws the observable-set-cannot-override error if the observable instance already has a property with the given property name. This prevents from mistakenly overriding existing properties and methods, but means that foo.set( 'bar', 1 ) may be slightly slower than foo.bar = 1.

inherited
set:{property}( eventInfo, name, value, oldValue )
Fired when a property value is going to be set but is not set yet (before the change event is fired).

You can control the final value of the property by using the event's return property.
```
observable.set( 'prop', 1 );

observable.on<ObservableSetEvent<number>>( 'set:prop', ( evt, propertyName, newValue, oldValue ) => {
	console.log( `Value is going to be changed from ${ oldValue } to ${ newValue }` );
	console.log( `Current property value is ${ observable[ propertyName ] }` );

	// Let's override the value.
	evt.return = 3;
} );

observable.on<ObservableChangeEvent<number>>( 'change:prop', ( evt, propertyName, newValue, oldValue ) => {
	console.log( `Value has changed from ${ oldValue } to ${ newValue }` );
} );

observable.prop = 2; // -> 'Value is going to be changed from 1 to 2'
                     // -> 'Current property value is 1'
                     // -> 'Value has changed from 1 to 3'
```
Note: The event is fired even when the new value is the same as the old value.

Parameters

eventInfo : EventInfo

An object containing information about the fired event.

name : string

The property name.

value : TValue

The new property value.

oldValue : TValue

The previous property value.
submitCommentThread( eventInfo, <anonymous> )
Fired whenever a new comment thread is submitted and occurs after creating the first comment.

The event name includes channelId so it is possible to listen only on changes happening in the specified channel.
```
const channelId = 'foo';

commentsRepository.on( `submitCommentThread:${ channelId }`, ( evt, data ) => {
	console.log( evt, data );
} );
```
Parameters

eventInfo : EventInfo

An object containing information about the fired event.

<anonymous> : BaseCommentThread
updateComment( eventInfo, <anonymous> )
Fired whenever a comment is updated.

The event name includes channelId so it is possible to listen only to changes happening in the specified channel.

It is also possible to listen to events from the given thread ID by appending :[threadId] part to the event name
```
const channelId = 'foo';
const threadId = '1234';

commentsRepository.on( `updateComment:${ channelId }:${ threadId }`, ( evt, data ) => {
	console.log( evt, data );
} );
```
Parameters

eventInfo : EventInfo

An object containing information about the fired event.

<anonymous> : UpdateCommentEventData
updateCommentThread( eventInfo, <anonymous> )
