Lobby Editor

A familiar, plug and play, extendable rich text editor for React, based on ProseMirror, built using TipTap

Install

Have a fully functioning editor for your project in no time. First, install using

 npm install "@tiptap/core@2.0.0-beta.174" "@tiptap/react@2.0.0-beta.114" remixicon lobby-editor

or if you are using yarn

yarn add "@tiptap/core@2.0.0-beta.174" "@tiptap/react@2.0.0-beta.114" remixicon lobby-editor

Peer Dependencies

Lobby editor requires peer dependencies

  "@tiptap/core": "2.0.0-beta.174",
  "@tiptap/react": "2.0.0-beta.114",

Note

To use the BubbleMenu that comes with our editor Tailwind must be installed.

Usage

Use as desired in your project like below

import { useLobbyEditor, LobbyEditor } from "lobby-editor"
const App = () => {
  const editor = useLobbyEditor();
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <LobbyEditor editor={editor} editable={true} />
    </div>
  )
}
export default App

Congrats! You should now have the lobby editor running!

Styling

In your App.js import styling or if you are using Next.js import in your _app.js

Install RemixIcon

import "lobby-editor/dist/es/styles.css";
import "remixicon/fonts/remixicon.css";

Extensions

Let's now have a look at adding some custom extensions.

Define your custom extension.

// 1. Import the extension
import BulletList from '@tiptap/extension-bullet-list'

// 2. Overwrite the keyboard shortcuts
const CustomBulletList = BulletList.extend({
 addKeyboardShortcuts() {
   return {
     'Mod-l': () => this.editor.commands.toggleBulletList(),
   }
 },
})

Next pass it to createLobbyEditor like this

let editor = useLobbyEditor({
  customExtensions: [
    CustomBulletList(),
    ...
  ]
})

Have a look at the getting started to see more example.

Note

1. setContent needs to be inside a useEffect because every time the editor is typed in/updated it rerenders the entire component and setContent will be called indefinitely
