Kosta Harlan b973ff3ee3 Introduce VisualEditorApiVisualEditorPreSaveHook
What:

Add a hook that runs before a save attempt is made in
ApiVisualEditorEdit. The hook receives the same data available in
ApiVisualEditorEdit, and implementations of the hook can modify the API
response.

Why:

VE plugins may send additional data when saving an edit, and extensions
might want to prevent the save from taking place based on that
additional data.

See for example the AddLink plugin in Ic8225933c9, where the save is
blocked if link suggestions don't exist in the database at save time.

VisualEditor

VisualEditor provides a visual editor for wiki pages. It is written in JavaScript and runs in a web browser.

It uses the Parsoid parser to convert wikitext documents to annotated HTML which the VisualEditor is able to load, modify and emit back to Parsoid at which point it is converted back into wikitext.

For more information about these projects, check out the VisualEditor and Parsoid pages on mediawiki.

Developing and installing

For information on installing VisualEditor on a local wiki, please see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor

For information about running tests and contributing code to VisualEditor, see CONTRIBUTING.md. Patch submissions are reviewed and managed with Gerrit. There is also API documentation available for the VisualEditor.
