I am interested in implementing this using the https://ace.c9.io/ editor, which is BSD-licensed. Seems like the complexity would be in generating the internal fork and PR that results from the edit(s). My use case for this would be mostly so non-technical users can submit documentation edits without getting too deep in the weeds.
Before I go off in a direction that would not be mergeable later, does anyone have any thoughts on how this should work? --- ** [tickets:#5117] Web-based commits, like GitHub and Google Project Hosting, with JavaScript-based source code editors** **Status:** open **Milestone:** unreleased **Created:** Sun Oct 14, 2012 01:47 AM UTC by Anonymous **Last Updated:** Thu May 19, 2016 07:34 PM UTC **Owner:** nobody *Originally created by:* marclaporte Hi! This is especially useful to increase contributions, especially for language files and CSS files. The current overhead of learning / setting up SVN is a hurdle. Please see: * http://dev.tiki.org/Web+Commits * http://dev.tiki.org/Web-based+source+code+editor And also: * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_JavaScript-based_source_code_editors * http://googlecode.blogspot.ca/2011/01/make-quick-fixes-quicker-on-google.html * http://github.com/blog/905-edit-like-an-ace For Tiki, we use CodeMirror, which was deemed the best for our needs when we picked it and has been evolving nicely ever since. We would like web-based commits of SVN files, but I suspect many will want it for other source control systems.
