Markdown Review UI
Review Request #4414 — Created Aug. 10, 2013 and submitted
Markdown Review UI This adds functionality to render Markdown file attachments in Review Board. The rendering is handled by the "markdown" Python package which, given a file, returns the HTML code for it. This HTML code is then passed to the Backbone view for the Markdown Pluggable UI through the template and rendered in the browser. This is based on the change at https://reviews.reviewboard.org/r/3434/ The major changes are: - Port to the new 1.8.x JS model/view parameters and remove the extra template file. - Use safe_mode='escape' when rendering to disallow users from using arbitrary HTML tags. - Add comment thumbnails, so we get excerpts in the reviews page. I can't decide if using minidom to parse the outputted HTML and extract a specific node is awesome or awful, but it seems to work very reliably and keeps us secure. - Cache the rendering of the markdown file, which comes in handy for those comment thumbnails.
"Valid" Case: 1) Created a review request and uploaded multiple random files to it 2) Then, uploaded a valid Markdown file (with the extension .md) to that review request 3) Clicked the "Review" link for the Markdown file 4) The new page loaded should render the Markdown file "Invalid" Case: 1) Created a review request and uploaded multiple random files to it 2) Then, uploaded an image to that review request by changed the file extension to be ".md". For example, wallpaper.png -> wallpaper.md 3) Clicked the "Review" link for the invalid Markdown file 4) The new page loaded did not render anything (i.e. it displayed the title and caption but nothing was displayed in the section where the HTML would have rendered)

Can you add a docstring for this? |

Should be able to just pass self._render, instead of wrapping in a lambda. |

We should cache this too. |

These are expensive enough where we should do some more caching. At the very least, the entire comment thumbnail should … |
