This callback is specific per editor at the moment. So I moved it into a prop to the "Sidebar" component. Ideally this should be the same between editors to be honest.

I'm not entirely sure that the way I'm retrieving the patterns here is similar to what we had before. Also not sure how to test this panel properly yet.

Also I'm guessing this PR brings this panel to the post editor (where it was not present)

There should be a simple way to get the patterns. Each similar implementation in the core has to deal with extra logic, increasing the chances of missing something.
@ellatrix, you recently worked on refactoring pattern fetching logic. Is there a better way to get all the patterns?

For now, I just restored the code that we had in the site editor to avoid impact but I agree that overall, we need to have a better story about retrieving patterns.

The position of this slot has changed in the DOM. This slot is also deprecated, so I'm not sure we should make the effort to keep the previous position or not.

Both of these panels were site editor specific and I'm guessing they can show up in the post editor as well now.

PagesFor pages this adds the 'Move to trash' button to the Inspector in the Site Editor. Not a big deal, but noting since we'll want to remove that button as part of the Inspector work. Trashing/deleting should be consistently accessed from the ellipsis menu: 
Template partsTemplate parts receive the same Summary and trash button, plus a slug input: 
In this case the trash button is problematic because it appears for theme-supplied template parts (which cannot be deleted). The same is true for the slug. Once template parts and patterns are more unified (#57011) we'll want to include the Summary panel, but until then I think ideally it would be omitted in this context (as it is on trunk). PatternsThe Summary panel appears here too. Probably fine, but it's very short which highlights the need to move away from the collapsible panel component soon. NavigationAlso receives the Summary panel. It's not very useful here at all, containing only the 'last edited...' message and the 'Move to trash' button (which we want to remove anyway). Similar to template parts, if possible I think it's worth omitting this panel. |

@jameskoster, I think we should also remove the "Rename" action for normal post-types. The title is available in canvas and probably more accessible than a renaming in a modal. |
Contributor

Do you mean posts and pages? It's not always the case that the title is on the canvas, for instance if you have template preview on, and the template doesn't include a Title block. I don't think it hurts to include it as a fallback, though perhaps "Edit title" would make more sense than "Rename" for posts and pages. |

Side note: The move-to-trash action doesn't display a notice in the post table list view after trashing the post. We'll need to match the main "Move to Trash" button behavior.

We need to keep the showPostContentPanels check. The current logic doesn't render the Summary panel for the patterns when editing with a classic theme.

It was suggested above that it's not very helpful #61507 (comment)

To minimize changes, I restored it but kept only the "sync status"
Member

I think we still want to display Sync status somewhere. The header has a purple accent color, but that's not very accessible.
I don't think it's a blocker here as long as we quickly ship a follow-up for it (same Gutenberg release). cc @jameskoster

Agree sync status is useful, also (down the road) category.
Just for reference, for patterns, this is what we're aiming at:

Not for patterns specifically. It's a part of #59689.

Thanks, @youknowriad!
This tests well for me, and I couldn't spot any regression.
It would be nice to get another testing review in case I missed something. There's a lot of nuance to panel rendering logic.

@jameskoster, the "Post Actions" are disabled when viewing the template in the post editor. Screenshot

Contributor

I believe that occurs when actions (in this case 'Reset') cannot be applied. It's the same in the site editor. It may be better to hide the ellipsis button in these cases. |
Member
|
I thought the action would be simply omitted or disabled when it's not eligible for the current entity. |
Contributor

Yup, that's another option – keep the ellipsis active, but the Reset action in the menu disabled. |

What?
We're in a middle of an effort to merge the post and site editors under the @wordpress/editor abstraction. As part of this, this PR unifies the Sidebar component used in both post and site editors.
The structure of the two components was a bit different so there's a possibility for this changing the output a bit. So we need to test the sidebar of all post types (post, page, template, template part, navigation, pattern) properly to ensure the result is as we expect it to be.
Testing Instructions
Please test the sidebar (block and document) of the post and site editors.
There are some subtle changes to be expected but overall it should be similar to trunk.
