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. Bug: T283109 Change-Id: I6b81ea318f52ec47661086d85b5cc242a3fcd0e4 |

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.

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.
