Parsoid clearly fell back to non-selective serialization. The original HTML & the modified HTML are identical strings.

Is there anything wrong in the request, or is this an issue in Parsoid? At first sight it seems to match the test. Although, that test looks like it doesn't actually test selser, as it is not passing an oldid.

@GWicke: You aren't supplying the wikitext so presumably parsoid-lb.eqiad.wikimedia.org is making a TemplateRequest to en.wikipedia.test.local for the revision source and that's probably unreachable. Without the source, selser falls back to non-selective serialization.

Re: the test you mention. That's a good point. Some of those v2 API tests aren't actually enforcing anything. I was just using them to document the expected API. With the move to spec'ing the API out in Swagger, I should harden them up. I'll add this normalization test for selser.

• GWicke added a comment.Feb 13 2015, 1:34 AM

Ahhhh, now I see that broken domain prefix too. My fault, sorry. Let me see if fixing that gets it working.

Arlolra added a comment.Feb 13 2015, 3:54 AM

GWicke: There was a bug in there (see the attached patch) but I would have expected the current result to be:

<div id=\"bar\">Selser test

because you've got { "stx": "html", "autoInsertedEnd": true } in there, which the non-selective serializer should respect.

Arlolra added a comment.Feb 13 2015, 3:58 AM

Oh, wait, nevermind. I was looking at the original data-parsoid. Not the new one, which doesn't exist. In that case, selser will assume they're all new nodes (no data-parsoid on them) and just serialize as such.

Arlolra added a comment.Feb 13 2015, 4:10 AM

I suspect you'e about to say that data-parsoid won't change from the original and should be applied to the new html as well. And that this test that accepts a pagebundle doesn't seem right:

https://github.com/wikimedia/parsoid/blob/master/tests/mocha/api.js#L293-L320

But how do you distinguish between when to apply the original to the new, and when the new has the data-parsoid inlined?

• GWicke added a comment.Feb 13 2015, 4:14 AM

But how do you distinguish between when to apply the original to the new, and when the new has the data-parsoid inlined?

Can you expand on this a bit? Is your concern somebody adding ids to elements that then pull in data-parsoid that originally belonged to another node?

Ha. And I'm also concerned that someone requested a pagebundle in the first place in that scenario.

Moving on.

Should we require that data-parsoid always be part of original in the post then?

I would say that if there is an original in the request, then data-parsoid should be used from it. Do you see a use case for supporting inline data-parsoid beyond a transition period at all? If there isn't one, then it would basically boil down to what you say.

Arlolra added a comment.Feb 13 2015, 4:43 AM

I'm not sure about long-term inline data-parsoid support.

My question was about this test,
https://github.com/wikimedia/parsoid/blob/master/tests/mocha/api.js#L293-L320

Should we allow a post like that? Or should data-parsoid always be child of original?

Ah, now I get it. I don't really see a use case for passing in a modified data-parsoid, except maybe parsoids playing ping-pong? IMHO we also shouldn't encourage clients that aren't storage services like parsoid to work directly with pagebundles. It just encourages people to mess with private information when they shouldn't.

Arlolra added a comment.Feb 13 2015, 5:00 AM

Sounds good. I'll update the patch or follow up with another to fix this.

• GWicke added a comment.EditedFeb 13 2015, 11:02 PM

When testing against the latest patch (b2c16b3628) I'm now getting something that looks like it's still not using selser:

"<div id=\"bar\">Selser test"

Those quotes shouldn't be there if selser was used.

• GWicke added a comment.EditedFeb 13 2015, 11:46 PM

It turns out that I need to also set fetchWT to true in the config to enable wikitext fetching for selser. The default value is off, and the documentation states:

/**
 * @property {boolean} fetchWT
 * When transforming from html to wt, fetch the original wikitext before.
 * Intended for use in round-trip testing.
 */
 ParsoidConfig.prototype.fetchWT = false;

This flag is not part of the default config file.

It is also not set in our production config.

How is this going to work in production?
