fix(core): preserve file order when dropping or pasting multiple files - #3329
Fixes#3326: preserve transfer order when dropping or pasting multiple files.
Rationale
Each file was inserted relative to the same paragraph. Inserting after that
paragraph placed later files ahead of earlier ones, reversing the transfer
order. Drops before the paragraph were already ordered correctly.
Changes
Insert subsequent files after the previously inserted file block.
Fall back to the event's insertion position if that block was deleted during
its upload.
Add focused regression coverage for before/after drops and paste into a
nonempty paragraph, including delayed, rejected, and empty-URL uploads.
Impact
No public API changes. First-file placement, empty-paragraph replacement,
sequential uploads, transfer-data capture, and upload error handling are retained.
Testing
Red-first: six order cases fail without the fix; before-drop and existing
empty-paragraph/data-lifetime controls pass.
Focused Node suite: 11 passed.
Existing Docker browser suite: 18 passed across Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit.
Targeted type-aware lint and formatting checks pass.
Full core suite: 117 files passed; one version-diff performance test hit its
5-second timeout. Its isolated rerun passed in 833 ms.
Checklist
Code follows the project's coding standards.
Unit tests covering the fix have been added.
All existing tests pass (one full-suite timeout; isolated rerun passes).
Documentation reviewed; no public API or documentation changes needed.
Additional Notes
Builds on the transfer-data lifetime fix in #3213 and retains upload-failure
handling from #3247. Interactive wrapped-paragraph screenshots and slow-upload
undo/redo have not been verified because the Playwright CLI is unavailable.
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
File uploads added by pasting or dropping are now inserted in their original order, even when uploads finish at different times or an upload fails or returns no URL.
Files are inserted relative to the intended position beside existing text, helping keep the document layout consistent.
The file insertion handler tracks the most recently inserted file block and uses it to position subsequent files when it remains available. Tests cover paste and drop of two files with successful, rejected, and empty-URL upload outcomes.
Changes: Multi-file insertion order
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Track and reuse the insertion position packages/core/src/api/clipboard/fromClipboard/handleFileInsertion.ts, packages/core/src/api/clipboard/fromClipboard/handleFileInsertion.test.ts
The handler inserts each subsequent file after the latest inserted file block when that block exists. Otherwise, it uses the existing paste or drop insertion path. Parameterized tests cover upload outcomes and verify insertion order before the second upload completes and after both uploads finish.
TypeCellOS/BlockNote#3213: Captures file data before asynchronous uploads in handleFileInsertion, which also handles multiple dropped or pasted files.
TypeCellOS/BlockNote#3247: Changes upload failure handling and skips updates when an inserted block is deleted during upload. It also checks whether the previously inserted block exists.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 79024
Multi-file insertion may stop partway through in a custom layout that excludes a later file type. The narrow case does not appear to block merging.

Explanation
[ #3326 ] requires dropped or pasted files to retain transfer order. handleFileInsertion.ts inserts each later file after the previously inserted file block, with a fallback when that block is unavailable. handleFileInsertion.test.ts adds order coverage for drops and paste, including delayed, rejected, and empty-URL uploads. This meets the coding requirement.
Full details: Docstring Coverage
Explanation
Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 1 functions across 2 files.
Resolution
Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.
