want onPaste handler

[ttlg]

It would be useful to add onPaste interface on the editable text. It makes URL pasting experience great.

Not sure if I understand this correctly. What exact behavior are you expecting?

I assume it's when you paste a URL it is formatted as link right away? As opposed to how it works currently when you still need to add a space to trigger auto format.

Thank you for your reply.
I want paste event handler so that we can add any functions (like displaying modal window for asking if user want formatted link or not) before pasting.

I might be useful for an OnPasteHandler, but my work around was to add an insert rule into notus that checks if the insert is a valid URL if it is then it will insert the text along with the link
Calling it an onPasteHandler is probably wrong since it works even for just typing in a valid URL.

`

class CheckLinkOnPasteRule extends InsertRule {
    const CheckLinkOnPasteRule();

@override
Delta apply(Delta document, int index, String text) {
    try { 
        // need this try since the parsing will throw an error after empty :
        if (!Uri.parse(text.trim()).isAbsolute) {
             // Only interested in text containing a url
            return null;
        }
    } on Exception catch (_) {
        return null;
    }

    final iter = DeltaIterator(document);
    iter.skip(index);

    final result = Delta()..retain(index);

    result.insert(text, {'a': text.trim()});

    return result;
  }
}
