As part of improving the block style variations #7551 we need the ability to set the default style at runtime.
This PR adds the
setDefaultBlockStyle
low-level primitive.Testing
Execute
npm run test-unit
.npm install && npm run dev
.wp.data.dispatch( 'core/block' ).setDefaultBlockStyle( 'core/quote', 'large' )
.large
one.So far, the new block doesn't reflect the
large
style. The reason is that the CSS classes for default block styles don't get applied to the block until the user specifically clicks the style. Because the style classis-style-large
is not applied, the CSS for the block is still the initial default style, not the one defined at runtime.
