Update the block factory to update JSON #5577

Open BeksOmega opened 2 years ago

BeksOmega commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently the block factory exports XML for he toolbox (and possibly other things?) which is no longer the recommended method of interacting with Blockly.

Describe the solution you'd like

Update the Block Factory so that there is an option to export JSON. This allows people that are still using the XML system to convert slowly.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Update the Block Factory to only export JSON. This gives devs a further insentive to update.

Hey @BeksOmega I would like to work on this issue. Can you assign it to me ?

Sorry @surajguduru The latest version of the blocks factory actually doesn't support toolboxes, so this isn't ready to be worked on :/
