[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Downloads][downloads-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/superRaytin/react-monaco-editor.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/superRaytin/react-monaco-editor) [![react-monaco-editor](https://nodei.co/npm/react-monaco-editor.png)](https://npmjs.org/package/react-monaco-editor) [npm-url]: https://npmjs.org/package/react-monaco-editor [downloads-image]: http://img.shields.io/npm/dm/react-monaco-editor.svg [npm-image]: http://img.shields.io/npm/v/react-monaco-editor.svg ## Examples To build the examples locally, run: ```bash yarn cd example yarn yarn start ``` Then open `http://localhost:8886` in a browser. ## Installation ```bash yarn add react-monaco-editor ``` ## Using with Webpack ```js import React from 'react'; import { render } from 'react-dom'; import MonacoEditor from 'react-monaco-editor'; class App extends React.Component { constructor(props) { super(props); this.state = { code: '// type your code...', } } editorDidMount(editor, monaco) { console.log('editorDidMount', editor); editor.focus(); } onChange(newValue, e) { console.log('onChange', newValue, e); } render() { const code = this.state.code; const options = { selectOnLineNumbers: true }; return ( ); } } render( , document.getElementById('root') ); ``` Add the [Monaco Webpack plugin](https://github.com/Microsoft/monaco-editor-webpack-plugin) `monaco-editor-webpack-plugin` to your `webpack.config.js`: ```js const MonacoWebpackPlugin = require('monaco-editor-webpack-plugin'); module.exports = { plugins: [ new MonacoWebpackPlugin() ] }; ``` ## Properties If you specify `value` property, the component behaves in controlled mode. Otherwise, it behaves in uncontrolled mode. - `width` width of editor. Defaults to `100%`. - `height` height of editor. Defaults to `100%`. - `value` value of the auto created model in the editor. - `defaultValue` the initial value of the auto created model in the editor. - `language` the initial language of the auto created model in the editor. - `theme` the theme of the editor - `options` refer to [Monaco interface IEditorConstructionOptions](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/api/interfaces/monaco.editor.ieditorconstructionoptions.html). - `onChange(newValue, event)` an event emitted when the content of the current model has changed. - `editorWillMount(monaco)` an event emitted before the editor mounted (similar to `componentWillMount` of React). - `editorDidMount(editor, monaco)` an event emitted when the editor has been mounted (similar to `componentDidMount` of React). - `context` optional, allow to pass a different context then the global window onto which the monaco instance will be loaded. Useful if you want to load the editor in an iframe. ## Events & Methods Refer to [Monaco interface IEditor](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/api/interfaces/monaco.editor.ieditor.html). ## Q & A ### How to interact with the MonacoEditor instance Using the first parameter of `editorDidMount`, or using a `ref` (e.g. ``) after `editorDidMount` event has fired. Then you can invoke instance methods via `this.refs.monaco.editor`, e.g. `this.refs.monaco.editor.focus()` to focuses the MonacoEditor instance. ### How to get value of editor Using `this.refs.monaco.editor.getValue()` or via method of `Model` instance: ```js const model = this.refs.monaco.editor.getModel(); const value = model.getValue(); ``` ### Do something before editor mounted For example, you may want to configure some JSON schemas before editor mounted, then you can go with `editorWillMount(monaco)`: ```js class App extends React.Component { editorWillMount(monaco) { monaco.languages.json.jsonDefaults.setDiagnosticsOptions({ schemas: [{ uri: "http://myserver/foo-schema.json", schema: { type: "object", properties: { p1: { enum: [ "v1", "v2"] }, p2: { $ref: "http://myserver/bar-schema.json" } } } }] }); } render() { return ( ); } } ``` ### Use multiple themes [Monaco only supports one theme](https://github.com/Microsoft/monaco-editor/issues/338). ### How to use the diff editor ```js import React from 'react'; import { MonacoDiffEditor } from 'react-monaco-editor'; class App extends React.Component { render() { const code1 = "// your original code..."; const code2 = "// a different version..."; const options = { //renderSideBySide: false }; return ( ); } } ``` # License MIT, see the [LICENSE](/LICENSE.md) file for detail.
