Human: How do I implement the editor.js library in my React typescript Vite project with a basic page
ChatGPT:
To implement the editor.js library in your React TypeScript Vite project, follow these steps:
- Create a new Vite project with the React TypeScript template:
bashnpm init vite@latest my-editorjs-project --template react-ts
cd my-editorjs-project
npm install
- Install the necessary packages:
bashnpm install @editorjs/editorjs @editorjs/header @editorjs/list @editorjs/checklist @editorjs/quote @editorjs/code @editorjs/embed @editorjs/table @editorjs/link @editorjs/image @editorjs/inline-code @editorjs/mention @editorjs/simple-image @types/editorjs
- Replace the content of
src/App.tsx
with the following code:
tsximport React, { useRef, useEffect } from "react";
import EditorJS, { EditorConfig } from "@editorjs/editorjs";
import Header from "@editorjs/header";
import List from "@editorjs/list";
import Checklist from "@editorjs/checklist";
import Quote from "@editorjs/quote";
import Code from "@editorjs/code";
import Embed from "@editorjs/embed";
import Table from "@editorjs/table";
import LinkTool from "@editorjs/link";
import ImageTool from "@editorjs/image";
import InlineCode from "@editorjs/inline-code";
import Mention from "@editorjs/mention";
import SimpleImage from "@editorjs/simple-image";
const App: React.FC = () => {
const editorRef = useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null);
useEffect(() => {
if (editorRef.current) {
const editor = new EditorJS({
holder: editorRef.current,
tools: {
header: Header,
list: List,
checklist: Checklist,
quote: Quote,
code: Code,
embed: Embed,
table: Table,
linkTool: LinkTool,
image: ImageTool,
inlineCode: InlineCode,
mention: Mention,
simpleImage: SimpleImage,
},
} as EditorConfig);
return () => {
editor.destroy();
};
}
}, []);
return (
<div className="App">
<div ref={editorRef} />
</div>
);
};
export default App;
- Add a CSS file to style the editor. Create a new file
src/editor.css
and import it insrc/App.tsx
. You can find some basic styles for the editor on the official GitHub repository or create your own.
css/* src/editor.css */
/* Add your editor.js styles here */
- Import the CSS file in
src/App.tsx
:
tsx// Add this line at the top of App.tsx
import "./editor.css";
- Start the development server:
bashnpm run dev
Now you should see a basic page with the Editor.js library integrated into your React TypeScript Vite project. You can customize the editor by adding or removing tools, as well as configuring each tool's options. Refer to the Editor.js documentation for more information: https://editorjs.io/
