Conversation
The DamVideoBlock always stores everything it has (autoplay, loop, show controls, preview image), even for sites that don't use any of it. The Admin already has a createDamVideoBlock factory that hides unsupported options from the editor, but they stay part of the block's data and of the generated types. Add the API counterpart: options left out of `supports` are part of neither the block's data nor its input, so they don't show up in blocks.generated.ts and aren't stored, even when the Admin still submits them. DamVideoBlock is now created from the factory with both options supported and still exported next to it, so this is non-breaking. Since it occupies the block name DamVideo, a block created with the factory needs a name of its own, which is why the Admin factory gains a `name` option.

changed the title
createDamVideoBlock factory to the API
knip reported DamVideoBlockInputInterface as an unused export. It only needs to be visible to the declaration emit of the module that creates DamVideoBlock, so move that block into the factory's own module and drop the export. dam-video.block.ts held nothing else.

ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This change adds a substantial cross-package factory that alters generated block metadata and persistence behavior for configured DamVideo variants, while replacing the existing API block implementation behind the default-compatible export. Migration handling and default compatibility are tested, but the new API contract and decorator/registration design warrant human validation. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules.

…amVideoBlock The migration only concerns the DamVideoBlock that shipped without a preview image. A block created with createDamVideoBlock is new, so it has no data from an earlier version and starts at version 1 with no migrations to apply - all the more so when it doesn't support a preview image at all.

The claim that unsupported options aren't stored only holds for new content. createBlock builds the block data with plainToInstance, which keeps every property of the stored data, so values stored while an option was still supported are loaded and saved again.

…ratively Applying the field decorators as function calls was the only place in the package that did so, and it made the classes hard to read: what a block has was spread over the class body and three conditional blocks below it, in an order that mattered because it also determined the field order of the generated block meta. Declare all fields on the classes as everywhere else and leave the unsupported ones out of the block meta instead, which is where `supports` decides what is generated. The data and input meta of every `supports` combination stay byte-identical, and so does what the block stores.

ChildBlockInput rejects a missing child block, and its @expose() makes that transform run even when the input carries no value. Declaring previewImage unconditionally therefore made blockInputFactory throw for every block that doesn't support a preview image, so a file-only or controls-only video could not be created at all. Apply both child block decorators only when the preview image is supported, and keep damFileId after them, because the block meta lists the fields in the order they are applied. The boolean options stay declared on the classes: they only feed the meta, which leaves them out when they aren't supported. Cover input without a preview image in the tests, for a block that supports the controls and for one that supports nothing but the file.

…r DAM blocks PixelImageBlock and SvgImageBlock don't decorate damFileId at all: their input meta adds the field, which puts it last without depending on the order the decorators run in. Follow that here, so the three imperatively applied decorators can go and only the validators stay on the property. The two child block decorators remain conditional, since they reject a missing preview image. Block meta, block input meta and what the block stores stay identical for every supports combination.

The Admin factory promised that the preview image is part of the block's data in any case, which only holds for the DamVideoBlock the API exports. With the API factory, an option left out of its `supports` isn't stored at all, so point at the API block instead of making a promise the Admin can't keep.

I believe this factory is meant to replace existing blocks in a project. We should verify if this works when there's no migration. |
Stamping version 1 without a migration is pointless: applyMigrations returns the raw data untouched for an empty pipe, so the version number only burns the first slot. A project's first migration would then have to be a no-op at toVersion 1, because the pipe has to start there, plus the real one at toVersion 2. Pass migrate only for the exported DamVideoBlock, which has the preview image migration, and create blocks from the factory without it, like every other block that has no migrations. Their data carries no $$version, so a later first migration at toVersion 1 applies to it.

…lock Every other block factory takes `nameOrOptions: BlockFactoryNameOrOptions` as its second parameter and forwards its migrate option to createBlock, so a project can migrate the block it created. createDamVideoBlock took a bare name and passed no migrate at all, leaving projects without a way to migrate their own video block. Follow the convention instead: a string is the block's name, an object can carry migrate too, and the exported DamVideoBlock passes its preview image migration that way. The internal creator folds back into the factory, since the factory can now express everything the exported block needs.

Migrations were attached at the call site, so only the exported DamVideoBlock had the preview image migration. Every block a project created with the factory started at version 0 with an empty chain, which breaks replacing an existing block: content that was never migrated keeps no preview image although the block declares it non-nullable, and the block index doesn't cover it. Let the factory contribute the migration itself, the way createTipTapRichTextBlock does with its DraftJS migration. It reserves version 1 and throws when a caller's version or toVersion takes that slot, so own migrations start with 2. The migration stays in the chain for a block without preview image support and only marks the data as up to date, so the version numbers don't shift when supports is widened later on. It also keeps a preview image that was stored without a version instead of overwriting it. Also return the block's own data interface from the factory, so callers can read previewImage off loaded data.

The factory reserves version 1 for its own preview image migration, so a project needs to know that own migrations start with 2 and that migrateBlocks persists what is otherwise only migrated on load. Also note that a value kept after narrowing supports is no longer a child block, so it drops out of the block index.

…rsion Contributing the preview image migration from the factory only reaches content whose version is behind. Content stored while supports left the preview image out is already at the block's latest version, so widening supports later left previewImage undefined although the block's meta declares it as always present. Reserving version 1 for that migration also pushed a project's own migrations to 2 and would shift them again for every field the block gains. Default a missing preview image to an empty one when it loads instead. That covers content from before the block had one and content no migration reaches, so the factory needs neither its own migration nor a reserved version and just forwards migrate again. The exported DamVideoBlock keeps its migration at the call site, because its stored content carries that version already. Expose is required for the transform to run at all when the stored data has no preview image: ChildBlock alone leaves the property untouched.

The factory no longer reserves a version, so own migrations start with 1 like for any other block. What a project needs to know is that a missing preview image is defaulted on load and that migrateBlocks persists it.

Problem
DamVideoBlockalways carries autoplay, loop, show controls and a preview image, even for sites that use none of them. #6224 added an Admin factory that hides those options from the editor, but they stay in the block's data, inblocks.generated.tsand in the database.Solution
Add the API counterpart. Options left out of
supportsare kept out of the block's meta, so they show up in neitherblocks.generated.tsnor the block's input, and aren't stored for new content. Values stored before an option was left out are kept: the block loads them and saves them again, so narrowingsupportsdoesn't remove them from existing content.supportstakes the same values as in the Admin:"controls"— autoplay, loop and show controls, offered together"previewImage"— the poster imageDamVideoBlockis now created from the factory with both supported, so this is non-breaking:block-meta.jsonregenerates byte-identical.Only the exported
DamVideoBlockregisters the preview image migration, since it's the block that shipped without one. Blocks created by the factory have no data from an earlier version and start at version 1 with no migrations.A factory-created block needs a name of its own, because
DamVideois taken by the exportedDamVideoBlockand a duplicate name would generate a duplicateDamVideoBlockDatainterface. The factory throws on a taken name. The Admin factory gains a matchingnameoption.Example
Example
Unit tests in
createDamVideoBlock.test.ts: the block meta per configuration, the duplicate-name guard, that unsupported options are not stored even when the input carries them, and that the preview image migration applies to the exported block only.The "even when the input carries them" case is real — the Admin's
