Why

The studio preview picked its renderer with an isImage/isText/isDocx boolean switchboard spread across three places — the file utils (is*Extension predicates + *_EXTENSIONS arrays), the page's two data-fetch watchers, and the preview component's v-if/v-else-if chain. That's O(formats) to extend, and every renderer's heavy deps (SuperDoc, and future PDF/XLSX engines) were statically reachable from the shared-layer bundle graph.

With the supported-format list heading toward 25–30, this replaces the switchboard with a declarative registry — the single source of truth for how a file is previewed.

What

  • renderers.ts (new) — one StudioRenderer entry per format family: extensions, a lazy () => import() loader (so each renderer's deps stay code-split and load only when that format opens), detectionSource (text | docx-parts | none), supportsZoom, and an optional wrapperClass. rendererFor(ext) is the one lookup everything uses.
  • StudioDocumentPreview.vue — the boolean v-if chain → one <component :is> over the resolved renderer, wrapped in defineAsyncComponent whose onError surfaces a chunk-load failure through the existing error phase (no stuck spinner). Dropped the isImage/isText/isDocx props; it resolves its own renderer from fileExtension.
  • Studio page — the text/docx content fetches now arm off the registry's detectionSource, not hardcoded isText/isDocx. A new text-backed format needs no page change.
  • file.ts — removed the now-orphaned preview classifiers (IMAGE/TEXT/DOCX_EXTENSIONS + is*Extension/is*FileName); the upload allowlist (ACCEPTED_EXTENSIONS) stays — it's a separate concern.
  • Dropped the now-internal Studio*View barrel re-exports; localized the last hardcoded "unsupported" string (en/de).

On the async approach

Chose defineAsyncComponent({ loader, onError }) over <Suspense> deliberately: the host already owns the loading UI (the phase-driven overlay), so the only thing missing was turning a failed code-split fetch into an error phase. <Suspense> is experimental and would add a second, racing loader plus a coarser onErrorCaptured error path.

Adding a format now

One registry entry — no switchboard, page watcher, or bundle-graph edits. Renderers stay SDK-free, keeping the whole surface lift-out-ready if the preview engine ever becomes its own package.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Improved studio previews with automatic support for image, CSV, text, and DOCX formats.
    • Preview components now load on demand for faster performance.
    • Zoom controls appear automatically for supported preview types.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Added a clear message when a file type cannot be previewed.
    • Improved handling of preview loading failures.
  • Localization
    • Added unsupported-preview messages in English and German.

The studio preview dispatched by an isImage/isText/isDocx boolean
switchboard spread across the file utils, the page's data watchers, and
the preview component — O(formats) to extend, and every renderer's heavy
deps were statically reachable from the layer bundle. With the supported
format list heading toward 25-30, replace it with a declarative registry.

- renderers.ts: one StudioRenderer entry per format family — extensions,
  a lazy `() => import()` loader (so each renderer's deps stay code-split
  and load only when that format opens), its detection source, zoom
  support, and optional wrapper class. `rendererFor(ext)` is the single
  lookup. This is now the sole source of truth for "how is X previewed".
- StudioDocumentPreview: the v-if switchboard becomes one `<component
  :is>` over the resolved renderer, wrapped in defineAsyncComponent whose
  onError surfaces a chunk-load failure through the existing error phase
  (no stuck spinner). Dropped the isImage/isText/isDocx props.
- studio page: the text/docx content fetches arm off the registry's
  detectionSource, not hardcoded isText/isDocx — so a new text-backed
  format needs no page change.
- file.ts: removed the orphaned preview classifiers (IMAGE/TEXT/DOCX_
  EXTENSIONS + is*Extension/is*FileName); the upload allowlist stays.
- Dropped the now-internal Studio*View barrel re-exports; localized the
  last hardcoded "unsupported" string (en/de).

Adding a format is now one registry entry: no switchboard, page watcher,
or bundle-graph edits, and the renderers stay SDK-free (lift-out-ready).

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The studio preview now uses a renderer registry to resolve file formats, load preview components lazily, provide renderer-specific props, control detection watchers, and handle unsupported extensions.

Changes

Studio preview registry

Layer / File(s) Summary
Renderer registry and classification
packages/console/app/components/pages/studio/renderers.ts, packages/console/app/utils/file.ts, packages/console/app/components/pages/studio/index.ts
The registry defines supported extensions, lazy components, detection sources, zoom support, and extension lookup. Preview-specific file predicates and component exports are removed.
Studio detection integration
packages/console/app/pages/w/[workspace]/studio/index.vue
The studio page resolves renderers from file extensions and uses detectionSource to control document-text and DOCX-parts watchers.
Lazy preview dispatch and localized fallback
packages/console/app/components/pages/studio/StudioDocumentPreview.vue, packages/console/i18n/locales/en.json, packages/console/i18n/locales/de.json
The preview component loads the selected renderer asynchronously, passes shared and renderer-specific props, derives zoom support from renderer metadata, and handles unsupported file types with localized text.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6e4e2

A delayed preview chunk failure could incorrectly put the newly selected file into an error state after the user switches formats. The impact is bounded to preview state and the change is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner awareness or a small follow-up guard.

Comment thread packages/console/app/components/pages/studio/StudioDocumentPreview.vue Outdated
A defineAsyncComponent loader promise isn't cancelled when its component
unmounts, so an old renderer's chunk can reject after a different file has
opened — its onError would then clobber the new view's phase with a stale
error. Guard the phase write with `renderer.value === active` so only the
still-active renderer's load failure surfaces (fail() is still called
either way). Addresses CodeRabbit review on #120.
