You have to understand KnockoutJS first.
Block IDs are generated mainly by the "uniqueid" knockout binding: https://github.com/voidlabs/mosaico/blob/v0.17.5/src/js/bindings/virtuals.js#L7
The "uniqueid" binding is added by the parser while parsing the master template and generating block templates: https://github.com/voidlabs/mosaico/blob/v0.17.5/src/js/converter/parser.js#L35
Sometimes (when a bunch of blocks are inserted at bulk via custom methods or via undo/redo of bulk blocks operations, but they shouldn't happen in "normal" 0.17.x use cases) they are generated elsewhere: https://github.com/voidlabs/mosaico/blob/v0.17.5/src/js/viewmodel.js#L166 https://github.com/voidlabs/mosaico/blob/v0.17.5/src/js/converter/wrapper.js#L274
Hi, does anyone know which file is used to generate the block ids when a block is dragged in? im trying to pickypack this process with some custom guid for our editor and for the life of me i can not figure out where the IDs are generated when the block is dragged in? or any function that is called when a block is dragged in. Any help would be super appreciated
