Description
According to the inline documentation of WP_Block_Parser
, parse_blocks
should return arrays not objects, all attributes are arrays. See https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/5.0/src/wp-includes/class-wp-block-parser.php#L124
Parsing
<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>First paragraph</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
returns
Array ( [0] => Array ( [blockName] => core/paragraph [attrs] => stdClass Object ( ) [innerBlocks] => Array ( ) [innerHTML] => <p>First paragraph</p> ) )
If the block has no attribute, [attrs]
is an empty object while, according to the documentation, we would expect an empty array.
In other cases, when the block includes attributes or when parsing a free form text, [attrs]
is, as expected, an array.
