Can we land it before WordPress 5.6 is out? Is useBlockProps already part of WordPress core?

We had a similar dilemma with new block categories that we couldn't include before 5.5 was out because it would fail block registration. Here it might fail a block if the Gutenberg plugin isn't installed.

[ellatrix]

@gziolo useBlockProps should be in core and is the same as apiVersion: 2. Ideally all new blocks should use it and old block should upgrade.

@gziolo useBlockProps should be in core and is the same as apiVersion: 2. Ideally all new blocks should use it and old block should upgrade.

Based on the date of exposing the API #25642, I don't think it's available as of today for a wider audience when you consider no Gutenberg plugin installed scenario.

So my point is, that we need to wait with changes to the tool until WP 5.6 is out.

[gziolo]

Now that we only backport bug fixes to wp/trunk branch, it should be fine to land this PR.

[gziolo]

We will need readme.txt.mustache templates to set the minimum version of WordPress to 5.6, plus leave a note in the changelog file to make people aware of this new restriction.

[gziolo]

I applied several changes to have this PR ready to merge just after WordPress 5.6 is out.

@ellatrix, can you double-check if the proposed changes make sense?

apiVersion is now configurable for 3rd party templates that were added recently.

I tested with:

npx wp-create-block my-esnext-block
npx wp-create-block my-es5-block -t es5

[gziolo]

It's time to get it merged 🎉
