feature request: Tab insertion in code blocks

[anrilyske]

What do you want to see?

Please add tab insertion for code blocks, whenever I press Tab on my keyboard, it does not insert an indent. I have to manually press space 4 times. When I press tab, it instead it uses the keyboard quick navigation function.

So in short, its a good idea to add the feature that until a ``` is closed, Revolt should listen for indentation insertion.

Wrong repository but this is a good idea, transferring issue.

Revite already has a mechanism for detecting when the user is typing in a code block; this could probably be converted and reused for this as well

i'm new to contributing this project. i figured i'd pick this up since it seems simple enough to add.

should this also include the ability to remove tab spacing with Shift+Tab? i know some text/code editors like VSCode allow you to do this, but idk if it's a very common functionality, or if it's even desired in this context.

I didn't even know that's a shortcut, I usually select lines and use Ctrl + [ / ]. That would be fine, I don't think anyone would accidentally hit Shift+Tab but it would be useful for those who use it. I think if that were to be added I would probably figure out a way to implement Ctrl + [ / ] too down the line.

i've never heard of that shortcut either... huh. guess we both learned something today LOL

anyway i could probably find a way to implement that too. not sure if it'll be in this same PR, but i'll look into it later today or tomorrow :)

[sharkaccino]

should this issue still be open?

I can confirm this issue is resolved when running the latest version of the revolt frontend from this repo locally (running commit 30abe9801eaac3268a8fe0df04b4987acd7d734d)
