Intercept text removal to "keep" comments, attached to it about ckeditor5

[nikitin-]

Now I'm playing around with registerPostFixer and getMarkersToRemove but not sure that this is a good way. ...

document.registerPostFixer( writer =>  {
    const changes = document.differ.getChanges();
    const del_markers = document.differ.getMarkersToRemove()
    if (del_markers) {
        debugger;
    }
});

Hi! As per docs:

When you remove the document content related to a comment thread from the document, the comment thread becomes unlinked. It is then moved to the comments archive. Since it has not been technically resolved, it does not display the usual related information.

You can access those comments via archivedThreads. Hope this helps!

@Witoso - Thank you for the answer!
Is CommentsArchive (@ckeditor/ckeditor5-comments/src/comments/commentsarchive) a separate plugin or it comes bundled to ckeditor5 "core" ?

As for now I have ckeditor5 version 35.4.0-1 (in some entreprise software :) ) - so I can not "upgrade" it.

[Witoso]

CommentsArchive appeared in v37.0.0, with changes in the deleted content in v40.0.0. I strongly suggest upgrading; otherwise you would need to duplicate the feature that is provided out of the box :)

@Witoso
ok - in case when I can not upgrade to these versions ... Is it a good start point to grab the deleted comments like this ? #16392 (comment)

[nikitin-]

Ok I have tested the update for ckeditor v.40 .
This update "broke" current application due to "incompatibility/dependency/whatever" problems.
So I will stick with this approach #16392 (comment)

Thank you for answerring my questions!
