Convert DraftJSMentionSelector component to TypeScript

This PR converts src/components/form-elements/draft-js-mention-selector from JavaScript with Flow to TypeScript.

Changes

  • Converted DraftJSMentionSelector.js and DraftJSMentionSelectorCore.js to .tsx with exported DraftJSMentionSelectorProps / DraftJSMentionSelectorCoreProps interfaces
  • Converted DraftMentionItem.js to .tsx with exported DraftMentionItemProps
  • Aligned already-TypeScript DraftTimestampItem to exported DraftTimestampItemProps
  • Converted index.js to index.ts, re-exporting the component, utilities, and DraftJSMentionSelectorProps
  • Converted utils.js, messages.js, DraftMentionDecorator.js, and createMentionTimestampSelectorState.js to TypeScript; Mention is now an exported interface
  • Converted folder tests to .test.ts / .test.tsx
  • Created .js.flow files for backward compatibility

Contract

  • Declared Flow props contract preserved (requiredness, accepted values, defaults, exports)
  • Contract change: Core no longer forwards unused isFocused to DraftJSEditor — that prop is not part of DraftJSEditorProps and was never read

Testing

  • Ran tests for src/components/form-elements/draft-js-mention-selector; all 97 pass
  • yarn lint:ts and flow check pass

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a rich text mention selector for tagging contacts in comments.
    • Added configurable mention triggers, contact suggestions, validation, loading states, and accessibility messaging.
    • Added profile links for inserted mentions.
    • Added optional video timestamp insertion, editing protection, restoration, and formatted comment support.
    • Added support for restoring mentions and timestamps from saved comment text.
  • Tests

    • Expanded coverage for mentions, timestamps, validation, editor behavior, and multiline content.
    • Improved TypeScript compatibility across the test suite.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The pull request adds a Draft.js mention selector with contact suggestions, immutable mention entities, optional video timestamps, validation, serialization, Flow and TypeScript exports, and expanded TypeScript-compatible tests.

Changes

Mention and timestamp selector

Layer / File(s) Summary

Mention interaction flow
src/components/form-elements/draft-js-mention-selector/DraftJSMentionSelectorCore.tsx
Tracks active mentions, updates contact suggestions, inserts selected contacts, forwards editor events, and renders accessible results.
Timestamp and form integration
src/components/form-elements/draft-js-mention-selector/DraftJSMentionSelector.tsx
Adds controlled or internal editor state, timestamp insertion and removal, timestamp protection, video-time extraction, validation, and conditional timestamp controls.
Behavior validation

Updates TypeScript-compatible assertions and instance access, and tests mention and timestamp restoration, validation, entity handling, and editor changes.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 4d2b7

This PR migrates the mention selector to TypeScript while preserving its public contract and removing an unused editor prop; the reported 97 tests, TypeScript lint, and Flow checks pass, and no actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Annotate the accumulator arrays as string[].

resultStringArr and blockMapStringArr have no type annotation. Under noImplicitAny these infer never[], and the later push calls fail to compile. Adding the annotation removes that dependency on the compiler configuration.

♻️ Proposed typing
-    const resultStringArr = [];
+    const resultStringArr: string[] = [];

addMention accepts null but does not handle it.

The signature declares activeMention: Mention | null. Line 78 falls back to {}, so start and end become undefined. Lines 86-87 then pass undefined offsets into selectionState.merge, which produces an invalid selection instead of a clear failure.

The Flow original had the same behavior with an untyped parameter. The new signature makes the unsafe path explicit, so guard it.

🛡️ Proposed guard
 function addMention(editorState: EditorState, activeMention: Mention | null, mention: MentionEntity): EditorState {
-    const { start, end } = activeMention || {};
+    if (!activeMention) {
+        return editorState;
+    }
+    const { start, end } = activeMention;

Type the timestamp entity data and fix the stale comment.

entity.getData() returns an untyped value, so timestampInMilliseconds and fileVersionId reach constructTimestampString without any check. The declared parameter types give no protection here.

The comment on line 164 also says the branch handles timestamps. The preceding else if handles them, so the comment is now wrong.

                     } else if (isTimestamp) {
-                        const { timestampInMilliseconds, fileVersionId } = entity.getData();
+                        const { timestampInMilliseconds, fileVersionId } = entity.getData() as TimestampEntityData;
                         const stringToAdd = constructTimestampString(timestampInMilliseconds, fileVersionId);
                         blockMapStringArr.push(stringToAdd);
                     } else {
-                        // For timestamp and other entity types, add the raw text
+                        // For other entity types, such as LINK, add the raw text
                         blockMapStringArr.push(text.substring(start, end));
                     }

Add the interface near MentionEntity:

interface TimestampEntityData {
    /** File version the timestamp belongs to */
    fileVersionId: string;
    /** Video position in milliseconds */
    timestampInMilliseconds: number;
}

The Flow shim still forwards isFocused to DraftJSEditor.

The TypeScript version removes this prop. DraftJSEditorProps in src/components/draft-js-editor/DraftJSEditor.tsx (lines 20-47) does not declare isFocused, so the prop is unused in both paths. The difference is cosmetic, but it makes the two files describe different render output.

Remove the prop here to keep the Flow shim aligned with the TypeScript implementation.

Consider concrete callback signatures instead of Function.

onChange, onFocus, onMention, and onReturn are typed as Function. This removes argument and return type checking for every consumer of the exported DraftJSMentionSelectorProps. The Flow original used Function, so this preserves the contract. You can tighten the types in a follow-up, for example onChange: (editorState: EditorState) => void.
