Description
Hi!
I would like list commands (unordered list, ordered list and checked list commands) to be applied to the whole line instead of word.
For now, I've achieved that by defining custom commands and overriding the makeList() function:
import { checkedListCommand, orderedListCommand, unorderedListCommand} from '@uiw/react-md-editor';
const makeList = (state: ExecuteState, api: TextAreaTextApi, insertBefore: string | AlterLineFunction): void => {
// const newSelectionRange = selectWord({ text: state.text, selection: state.selection, prefix: state.command.prefix! });
const newSelectionRange = selectLine({
text: state.text,
selection: state.selection
});
// ...
// copy/paste all the remaining code from source
// ...
};
export const customUnorderedListCommand: ICommand = {
...unorderedListCommand,
execute: (state: ExecuteState, api: TextAreaTextApi) => {
makeList(state, api, '- ');
}
};
export const customOrderedListCommand: ICommand = {
...orderedListCommand,
execute: (state: ExecuteState, api: TextAreaTextApi) => {
makeList(state, api, (item, index) => `${index + 1}. `);
}
};
export const customCheckedListCommand: ICommand = {
...checkedListCommand,
execute: (state: ExecuteState, api: TextAreaTextApi) => {
makeList(state, api, () => `- [ ] `);
}
};
Would it be possible to have something like a selectionStrategy option on the commands, that could be set to word or line for example? Then the makeList() function would use selectWord() or selectLine() accordingly?
Thanks for you great work!

Research direction
Start by locating the list command entry points, makeList(), selectWord(), and selectLine() referenced in the issue. Check how unorderedListCommand, orderedListCommand, and checkedListCommand are defined and how command options are typed. Done means the commands can choose word or line selection through a selectionStrategy option without custom command overrides.
