Summary

Needed for https://gitlab.indiscale.com/caosdb/customers/cfaed/management/-/issues/13. Adds a WYSIWYG editor to (scalar) text properties that produces markdown output.

Focus

ckeditor was added to the project's dependencies and is used in ext_editmode_wysiwyg_text.js to replace the textareas of scalar text properties. Do you think that the decision to leave out lists of text is a reasonable one?

Test Environment

Start the WebUI wit BUILD_MODULE_EXT_EDITMODE_WYSIWYG_TEXT = ENABLED. Verify that

• entities with text properties are assigned WYSIWYG editors when they are edited
• the editor does not appear in any other input fields
• newly added text properties also have the editor
• toggling a scalar property to a list makes the editor vanish, toggling back makes it re-appear

You may also test the output of the editor with various markdown commands together with the complexity wiki. Use the local-query branch of the cfaed server profile and main in complexitywiki for this.
