convertHtmlToDelta does not create the exact delta that quill works with

[Xiphe]

Given I paste <h2>Hello</h2><p>World</p> into a quill instance running in a real browser. getContents will return

{
  ops: [
    { insert: "Hello" },
    { attributes: { header: 2 }, insert: "\n" },
    { insert: "World\n" }
  ]
}

while convertHtmlToDelta returns

{
  ops: [
    { attributes: { header: 2 }, insert: "Hello\n" },
    { insert: "World\n" }
  ]
}

This cause problems with dirty-checks when the contents of quill are used in a <form>.

Will submit a PR.

@Xiphe I apologize for the delay. I'll be reviewing this, this week!

I can confirm the input/output provided for convertHtmlToDelta .

Input:

'<h2>Hello</h2><p>World</p>'

Resulting Output:

{
  "ops": [
    { "attributes": { "header": 2 }, "insert": "Hello\n" }, 
    { "insert": "World" }
  ]
}

Hi @Xiphe , Can you send me the semvers for each?

Hey @joelcolucci, in the meantime we stopped using this package since there seems to be a memory leak (which we did not debug properly, so I can not tell you where and why).

Versions related to this issue:

"quill": "^1.3.6"
macOS: 10.14.1
Chrome: Version 71.0.3578.98 (Official Build) (64-bit)

From my side you can also just close this + #4 - It's up to you.

[joelcolucci]

Thanks @Xiphe . I appreciate the feedback and update. This month I am committing more time to this project.

Are you able to share at what scale the memory leak occurred at? As in converting 1000, 10000, 100000 quills etc?

Thank you again for your time.

[Xiphe]

Are you able to share at what scale the memory leak occurred at.

As in not converting at all but loading the module. But as I said, we have not digged any deeper. Could also be a not relate to this module and we interpreted s.th. wrong.

Maybe @fgnass knows a little more here.

+1 on the memory leak. Just figured that out after simply loading the module.

node.js 10.10.0
npm 6.4.1
express: 4.17.1

@joelcolucci Is memory leak issue resolved now? I have to convert HTML to Delta on node server side. So i need this package to implement on node side

[joelcolucci]

Hey all. Just published version 0.3.3 which should resolve the memory leak from importing the module. See #10 for updates.
