Reference manual

This is the reference manual for the ProseMirror rich text editor. It lists and describes the full public API exported by the library.

FIXME write and link introduction guides

ProseMirror is distributed as a set of JavaScript modules. This reference manual describes the exported API per module. So if you want to use something from the edit module, you have to import it from there.

var edit = require("prosemirror/dist/edit")
var editor = new edit.ProseMirror()

Or in ES6 syntax:

import {ProseMirror} from "prosemirror/dist/edit"
let editor = new ProseMirror()

Note that the content of the dist directory only exists in a built version of code. If you are getting it from npm, you should be fine. If you manually cloned the git repository, you'll need to npm install inside of it first.

module edit

This module implements the ProseMirror editor. It contains functionality related to editing, selection, and integration with the browser. ProseMirror is the class you'll want to instantiate and interact with when using the editor.

Options

schema: Schema πŸ“„

The schema that the editor's document should use.

doc: any πŸ“„

The starting document. Usually a Node, but can be in another format when the docFormat option is also specified.

docFormat: ?string πŸ“„

The format in which the doc option is given. Defaults to null (a raw Node).

place: ?union<DOMNode, fn(DOMNode)> πŸ“„

Determines the placement of the editor in the page. When null, the editor is not placed. When a DOM node is given, the editor is appended to that node. When a function is given, it is called with the editor's wrapping DOM node, and is expected to place it into the document.

historyDepth: number πŸ“„

The amount of history events that are collected before the oldest events are discarded. Defaults to 100.

historyEventDelay: number πŸ“„

The amount of milliseconds that must pass between changes to start a new history event. Defaults to 500.

commands: CommandSet πŸ“„

Specifies the set of commands available in the editor (which in turn determines the base key bindings and items available in the menus). Defaults to CommandSet.default.

label: ?string πŸ“„

The label of the editor. When set, the editable DOM node gets an aria-label attribute with this value.

class ProseMirror πŸ“„

This is the class used to represent instances of the editor. A ProseMirror editor holds a document and a selection, and displays an editable surface representing that document in the browser document.

Contains event methods (on, etc) from the event mixin.

Constructor

new ProseMirror(opts:Β Object) πŸ“„

Construct a new editor from a set of options and, if it has a place option, add it to the document.

Properties

schema: Schema πŸ“„

The schema for this editor's document.

content: DOMNode πŸ“„

The editable DOM node containing the document.

wrapper: DOMNode πŸ“„

The outer DOM element of the editor.

mod: Object πŸ“„

A namespace where modules can store references to themselves associated with this editor instance.

commands: Object<Command> πŸ“„

The commands available in the editor.

selection: Selection πŸ“„

Get the current selection.

doc: Node πŸ“„

The current document.

tr: EditorTransform πŸ“„

Create an editor- and selection-aware Transform for this editor.

Methods

setOption(name:Β string, value:Β any) πŸ“„

Update the value of the given option.

getOption(name:Β string) β†’Β any πŸ“„

Get the current value of the given option.

setTextSelection(anchor:Β Pos, head:Β ?Pos) πŸ“„

Set the selection to a text selection from anchor to head, or, if head is null, a cursor selection at anchor.

setNodeSelection(pos:Β Pos) πŸ“„

Set the selection to a node selection on the node after pos.

setSelection(selection:Β Selection) πŸ“„

Set the selection to the given selection object.

setContent(value:Β any, format:Β ?string) πŸ“„

Replace the editor's document. When format is given, it should be a parsable format, and value should something in that format. If not, value should be a Node.

getContent(format:Β ?string) β†’Β any πŸ“„

Get the editor's content in a given format. When format is not given, a Node is returned. If it is given, it should be an existing serialization format.

setDoc(doc:Β Node, sel:Β ?Selection) πŸ“„

Set the editor's content, and optionally include a new selection.

apply(transform:Β Transform, options:Β ?Object = nullOptions) β†’Β ?Transform πŸ“„

Apply a transformation (which you might want to create with the tr getter) to the document in the editor. The following options are supported:

selection: ?Selection
A new selection to set after the transformation is applied.
scrollIntoView: ?bool
When true, scroll the selection into view on the next redraw.

Returns the transform, or false if there were no steps in it.

Has the following property:

scroll: Object πŸ“„

The object {scrollIntoView: true}, which is a common argument to pass to ProseMirror.apply or EditorTransform.apply.

checkPos(pos:Β Pos, textblock:Β ?bool) πŸ“„

Verify that the given position is valid in the current document, and throw an error otherwise. When textblock is true, the position must also fall within a textblock node.

flush() πŸ“„

Flush any pending changes to the DOM. When the document, selection, or marked ranges in an editor change, the DOM isn't updated immediately, but rather scheduled to be updated the next time the browser redraws the screen. This method can be used to force this to happen immediately. It can be useful when you, for example, want to measure where on the screen a part of the document ends up, immediately after changing the document.

addKeymap(map:Β Keymap, rank:Β ?number = 50) πŸ“„

Add a keymap to the editor. Keymaps added in this way are queried before the base keymap. The rank parameter can be used to control when they are queried relative to other maps added like this. Maps with a lower rank get queried first.

removeKeymap(map:Β union<string, Keymap>) πŸ“„

Remove the given keymap, or the keymap with the given name, from the editor.

markRange(from:Β Pos, to:Β Pos, options:Β ?Object) β†’Β MarkedRange πŸ“„

Create a marked range between the given positions. Marked ranges β€œtrack” the part of the document they point toβ€”as the document changes, they are updated to move, grow, and shrink along with their content.

options may be an object containing these properties:

inclusiveLeft: bool = false
Whether the left side of the range is inclusive. When it is, content inserted at that point will become part of the range. When not, it will be outside of the range.
inclusiveRight: bool = false
Whether the right side of the range is inclusive.
removeWhenEmpty: bool = true
Whether the range should be forgotten when it becomes empty (because all of its content was deleted).
className: string
A CSS class to add to the inline content that is part of this range.

setMark(type:Β MarkType, to:Β ?bool, attrs:Β ?Object) πŸ“„

Set (when to is true), unset (to is false), or toggle (to is null) the given mark type on the selection. When there is a non-empty selection, the marks of the selection are updated. When the selection is empty, the set of active marks is updated.

activeMarks() β†’Β [Mark] πŸ“„

Get the marks at the cursor. By default, this yields the marks associated with the content at the cursor, as per Node.marksAt. But setMark may have been used to change the set of active marks, in which case that set is returned.

focus() πŸ“„

Give the editor focus.

hasFocus() β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Query whether the editor has focus.

posAtCoords(coords:Β {top:Β number, left:Β number}) β†’Β ?Pos πŸ“„

If the given coordinates (which should be relative to the top left corner of the windowβ€”not the page) fall within the editable content, this method will return the document position that corresponds to those coordinates.

coordsAtPos(pos:Β Pos) β†’Β {top:Β number, left:Β number, bottom:Β number} πŸ“„

Find the screen coordinates (relative to top left corner of the window) of the given document position.

scrollIntoView(pos:Β ?Pos = null) πŸ“„

Scroll the given position, or the cursor position if pos isn't given, into view.

execCommand(name:Β string, params:Β ?[any]) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Execute the named command. If the command takes parameters and they are not passed here, the user will be prompted for them.

keyForCommand(name:Β string) β†’Β ?string πŸ“„

Return the name of the key that is bound to the given command, if any.

Properties

from: Pos πŸ“„

The start of the selection.

to: Pos πŸ“„

The end of the selection.

Static properties

empty: bool πŸ“„

True if the selection is an empty text selection (head an anchor are the same).

A text selection represents a classical editor selection, with a head (the moving side) and anchor (immobile side), both of which point into textblock nodes. It can be empty (a regular cursor position).

Constructor

new TextSelection(anchor:Β Pos, head:Β ?Pos) πŸ“„

Construct a text selection. When head is not given, it defaults to anchor.

Properties

anchor: Pos πŸ“„

The selection's immobile side (does not move when pressing shift-arrow).

head: Pos πŸ“„

The selection's mobile side (the side that moves when pressing shift-arrow).

class NodeSelection πŸ“„

A node selection is a selection that points at a single node. All nodes marked selectable can be the target of a node selection. In such an object, from and to point directly before and after the selected node.

Constructor

new NodeSelection(from:Β Pos, to:Β Pos, node:Β Node) πŸ“„

class MarkedRange πŸ“„

A marked range. Includes the methods from the event mixin.

Properties

from: ?Pos πŸ“„

The current start position of the range. Updated whenever the editor's document is changed. Set to null when the marked range is removed.

The current end position of the range. Updated whenever the editor's document is changed. Set to null when the marked range is removed.

Events

removed(from:Β Pos, to:Β Pos) πŸ“„

Signalled when the marked range is removed from the editor.

class Command πŸ“„

A command is a named piece of functionality that can be bound to a key, shown in the menu, or otherwise exposed to the user.

The commands available in a given editor are determined by the commands option. By default, they come from the baseCommands object and the commands registered with schema items. Registering a CommandSpec on a node or mark type will cause that command to come into scope in editors whose schema includes that item.

Properties

name: string πŸ“„

The name of the command.

spec: CommandSpec πŸ“„

The command's specifying object.

params: [CommandParam] πŸ“„

Get the list of parameters that this command expects.

label: string πŸ“„

Get the label for this command.

Methods

exec(pm:Β ProseMirror, params:Β ?[any]) β†’Β ?bool πŸ“„

Execute this command. If the command takes parameters, they can be passed as second argument here, or omitted, in which case a parameter handler will be called to prompt the user for values.

Returns the value returned by the command spec's run method, or false if the command could not be ran.

select(pm:Β ProseMirror) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Ask this command whether it is currently relevant, given the editor's document and selection. If the command does not define a select method, this always returns true.

active(pm:Β ProseMirror) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Ask this command whether it is β€œactive”. This is mostly used to style inline mark icons (such as strong) differently when the selection contains such marks.

class CommandSet πŸ“„

The type used as the value of the commands option. Allows you to specify the set of commands that are available in the editor by adding and modifying command specs.

Methods

add(set:Β union<Object<CommandSpec>, string>, filter:Β ?fn(string, CommandSpec) β†’Β bool) β†’Β CommandSet πŸ“„

Add a set of commands, creating a new command set. If set is the string "schema", the commands are retrieved from the editor's schema's registry, otherwise, it should be an object mapping command names to command specs.

A filter function can be given to add only the commands for which the filter returns true.

update(update:Β Object<?CommandSpec>) β†’Β CommandSet πŸ“„

Create a new command set by adding, modifying, or deleting commands. The update object can map a command name to null to delete it, to a full CommandSpec (containing a run property) to add it, or to a partial CommandSpec (without a run property) to update some properties in the command by that name.

Static properties

empty: CommandSet πŸ“„

A set without any commands.

default: CommandSet πŸ“„

The default value of the commands option. Includes the base commands and the commands defined by the schema.

interface CommandSpec

Commands are defined using objects that specify various aspects of the command. The only property that must appear in a command spec is run. You should probably also give your commands a label.

label: string πŸ“„

A user-facing label for the command. This will be used, among other things. as the tooltip title for the command's menu item. If there is no label, the command's name will be used instead.

run(pm:Β ProseMirror, ...params:Β [any]) β†’Β ?bool πŸ“„

The function that executes the command. If the command has parameters, their values are passed as arguments. For commands registered on node or mark types, this will be bound to the node or mark type when this function is ran. Should return false when the command could not be executed.

params: [CommandParam] πŸ“„

The parameters that this command expects.

select(pm:Β ProseMirror) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

The function used to select the command. this will again be bound to a node or mark type, when available.

active(pm:Β ProseMirror) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

The function used to determine whether the command is active. this refers to the associated node or mark type.

keys: union<string, [string]> πŸ“„

The default key bindings for this command. May either be an array of strings containing key names, or an object with optional all, mac, and pc properties, specifying arrays of keys for different platforms.

derive: union<bool, Object> πŸ“„

Mark and node types often need to define boilerplate commands. To reduce the amount of duplicated code, you can derive such commands by setting the derive property to either true or an object which is passed to the deriving function. If this object has a name property, that is used, instead of the command name, to pick a deriving function.

For node types, you can derive "insert", "make", and "wrap".

For mark types, you can derive "set", "unset", and "toggle".

interface CommandParam

The parameters that a command can take are specified using objects with the following properties:

label: string πŸ“„

The user-facing name of the parameter. Shown to the user when prompting for this parameter.

type: string πŸ“„

The type of the parameter. Supported types are "text" and "select".

default: any πŸ“„

A default value for the parameter.

prefill(ProseMirror) β†’Β ?any πŸ“„

A function that, given an editor instance (and a this bound to the command's source item), tries to derive an initial value for the parameter, or return null if it can't.

class NodeType πŸ“„

You can add several properties to node types to influence the way the editor interacts with them.

Methods

countCoordsAsChild(node:Β Node, path:Β [number], dom:Β DOMNode, coords:Β {left:Β number, top:Β number}) β†’Β ?Pos πŸ“„

Specifies that, if this node is clicked, a child node might actually be meant. This is used to, for example, make clicking a list marker (which, in the DOM, is part of the list node) select the list item it belongs to. Should return null if the given coordinates don't refer to a child node, or the position before the child otherwise.

handleClick(pm:Β ProseMirror, event:Β MouseEvent, path:Β [number], node:Β Node) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

If a node is directly clicked (that is, the click didn't land in a DOM node belonging to a child node), and its type has a handleClick method, that method is given a chance to handle the click. The method is called, and should return false if it did not handle the click.

The event passed is the event for "mousedown", but calling preventDefault on it has no effect, since this method is only called after a corresponding "mouseup" has occurred and ProseMirror has determined that this is not a drag or multi-click event.

handleContextMenu(pm:Β ProseMirror, event:Β MouseEvent, path:Β [number], node:Β Node) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

When the context menu is activated in the editable context, nodes that the clicked position falls inside of get a chance to react to it. Node types may define a handleContextMenu method, which will be called when present, first on inner nodes and then up the document tree, until one of the methods returns something other than false.

The handlers can inspect event.target to figure out whether they were directly clicked, and may call event.preventDefault() to prevent the native context menu.

Functions

defineOption(name:Β string, defaultValue:Β any, update:Β fn(pm:Β ProseMirror, newValue:Β any, oldValue:Β any, init:Β bool), updateOnInit:Β bool) πŸ“„

Define a new option. The update handler will be called with the option's old and new value every time the option is changed. When updateOnInit is true, it is also called on editor init, with null as the old value, and a fourth argument of true.

commandParamHandler(pm:Β ProseMirror, cmd:Β Command, callback:Β fn(?[any])) πŸ“„

The handler used to prompt the user for command parameters. Null (the default) means to use the default handler.

withParamHandler(handler:Β fn(pm:Β ProseMirror, cmd:Β Command, callback:Β fn(?[any])), f:Β fn()) πŸ“„

Run f, overriding the current command parameter handler with handler for the dynamic scope of the function.

defineDefaultParamHandler(handler:Β fn(pm:Β ProseMirror, cmd:Β Command, callback:Β fn(?[any])), override:Β ?bool = true) πŸ“„

Register a default parameter handler, which is a function that prompts the user to enter values for a command's parameters, and calls a callback with the values received. If override is set to false, the new handler will be ignored if another handler has already been defined.

Constants

baseCommands: Object<CommandSpec> πŸ“„

module model

This module defines ProseMirror's document model, the data structure used to define and inspect content documents. It includes:

This module does not depend on the browser API being available (i.e. you can load it into any JavaScript environment).

class Node πŸ“„

This class represents a node in the tree that makes up a ProseMirror document. So a document is an instance of Node, with children that are also instances of Node.

Nodes are persistent data structures. Instead of changing them, you create new ones with the content you want. Old ones keep pointing at the old document shape. This is made cheaper by sharing structure between the old and new data as much as possible, which a tree shape like this (without back pointers) makes easy.

Never directly mutate the properties of a Node object. See this guide for more information.

Properties

type: NodeType πŸ“„

The type of node that this is.

attrs: Object πŸ“„

An object mapping attribute names to string values. The kind of attributes allowed and required are determined by the node type.

content: Fragment πŸ“„

The node's content.

marks: [Mark] πŸ“„

The marks (things like whether it is emphasized or part of a link) associated with this node.

size: number πŸ“„

The size of the node's content, which is the maximum offset in the node. For nodes that don't contain text, this is also the number of child nodes that the node has.

width: number πŸ“„

The width of this node. Always 1 for non-text nodes, and the length of the text for text nodes.

textContent: string πŸ“„

Concatenate all the text nodes found in this fragment and its children.

firstChild: ?Node πŸ“„

Returns this node's first child, or null if there are no children.

lastChild: ?Node πŸ“„

Returns this node's last child, or null if there are no children.

isBlock: bool πŸ“„

True when this is a block (non-inline node)

isTextblock: bool πŸ“„

True when this is a textblock node, a block node with inline content.

isInline: bool πŸ“„

True when this is an inline node (a text node or a node that can appear among text).

isText: bool πŸ“„

True when this is a text node.

text: ?string πŸ“„

For text nodes, this contains the node's text content.

Methods

child(off:Β number) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Retrieve the child at the given offset. Note that this is not the appropriate way to loop over a node. child's complexity may be non-constant for some nodes, and it will return the same node multiple times when calling it for different offsets within a text node.

iter(start:Β ?number, end:Β ?number) β†’Β Iterator<Node> πŸ“„

Create an iterator over this node's children, optionally starting and ending at a given offset.

Create a reverse iterator (iterating from the node's end towards its start) over this node's children, optionally starting and ending at a given offset. Note: if given, start should be greater than (or equal) to end.

chunkBefore(off:Β number) β†’Β {start:Β number, node:Β Node} πŸ“„

Find the node that sits before a given offset. Can be used to find out which text node covers a given offset. The start property of the return value is the starting offset of the returned node. It is an error to call this with offset 0.

chunkAfter(off:Β number) β†’Β {start:Β number, node:Β Node} πŸ“„

Find the node that sits after a given offset. The start property of the return value is the starting offset of the returned node. It is an error to call this with offset corresponding to the end of the node.

forEach(f:Β fn(node:Β Node, start:Β number, end:Β number)) πŸ“„

Call the given function for each child node. The function will be given the node, as well as its start and end offsets, as arguments.

sameMarkup(other:Β Node) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Compare the markup (type, attributes, and marks) of this node to those of another. Returns true if both have the same markup.

hasMarkup(type:Β NodeType, attrs:Β ?Object, marks:Β ?[Mark]) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Check whether this node's markup correspond to the given type, attributes, and marks.

copy(content:Β ?Fragment = null) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Create a new node with the same markup as this node, containing the given content (or empty, if no content is given).

mark(marks:Β [Mark]) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Create a copy of this node, with the given set of marks instead of the node's own marks.

slice(from:Β number, to:Β ?number) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Create a copy of this node with the content between the given offsets replaced by the given fragment.

append(fragment:Β Fragment, joinLeft:Β ?number = 0, joinRight:Β ?number = 0) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Append the given fragment to this node's content, and create a new node with the result.

replace(pos:Β number, node:Β Node) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Return a copy of this node with the child at the given offset replaced by the given node. Note: The offset should not fall within a text node.

replaceDeep(path:Β [number], node:Β Node) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Return a copy of this node with the descendant at path replaced by the given replacement node. This will copy as many sub-nodes as there are elements in path.

close(depth:Β number, side:Β string) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

β€œClose” this node by making sure that, if it is empty, and is not allowed to be so, it has its default content inserted. When depth is greater than zero, sub-nodes at the given side (which can be "start" or "end") are closed too. Returns itself if no work is necessary, or a closed copy if something did need to happen.

path(path:Β [number]) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Get the descendant node at the given path, which is interpreted as a series of offsets into successively deeper nodes.

nodeAfter(pos:Β Pos) β†’Β ?Node πŸ“„

Get the node after the given position, if any.

siblingRange(from:Β Pos, to:Β Pos) β†’Β {from:Β Pos, to:Β Pos} πŸ“„

nodesBetween(from:Β ?Pos, to:Β ?Pos, f:Β fn(node:Β Node, path:Β [number], parent:Β Node)) πŸ“„

Iterate over all nodes between the given two positions, calling the callback with the node, the path towards it, and its parent node, as arguments. from and to may be null to denote starting at the start of the node or ending at its end. Note that the path passed to the callback is mutated as iteration continues, so if you want to preserve it, make a copy.

inlineNodesBetween(from:Β ?Pos, to:Β ?Pos, f:Β fn(node:Β Node, path:Β [number], start:Β number, end:Β number, parent:Β Node)) πŸ“„

Deserialize a node from its JSON representation.

class Fragment πŸ“„

A fragment is an abstract type used to represent a node's collection of child nodes. It tries to hide considerations about the actual way in which the child nodes are stored, so that different representations (nodes that only contain simple nodes versus nodes that also contain text) can be approached using the same API.

Fragments are persistent data structures. That means you should not mutate them or their content, but create new instances whenever needed. The API tries to make this easy.

Properties

textContent: string πŸ“„

Concatenate all the text nodes found in this fragment and its children.

size: number πŸ“„

The maximum offset in this fragment.

firstChild: ?Node πŸ“„

The first child of the fragment, or null if it is empty.

lastChild: ?Node πŸ“„

The last child of the fragment, or null if it is empty.

Methods

append(other:Β Fragment, joinLeft:Β ?number = 0, joinRight:Β ?number = 0) β†’Β Fragment πŸ“„

Create a fragment that combines this one with another fragment. Takes care of merging adjacent text nodes and can also merge β€œopen” nodes at the boundary. joinLeft and joinRight give the depth to which the left and right fragments are open. If open nodes with the same markup are found on both sides, they are joined. If not, the open nodes are closed.

toString() β†’Β string πŸ“„

Return a debugging string that describes this fragment.

some(f:Β fn(Node) β†’Β bool) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Returns true if the given function returned true for any of the fragment's children.

sliceBetween(from:Β ?Pos, to:Β ?Pos) β†’Β Fragment πŸ“„

Slice out the sub-fragment between the two given positions. null can be passed for either to indicate the slice should go all the way to the start or end of the fragment.

iter(start:Β ?number = 0, end:Β ?number = this.size) β†’Β Iterator<Node> πŸ“„

Create a forward iterator over the content of the fragment. An explicit start and end offset can be given to have the iterator go over only part of the content. If an iteration bound falls within a text node, only the part that is within the bounds is yielded.

reverseIter(start:Β ?number = this.size, end:Β ?number = 0) β†’Β Iterator<Node> πŸ“„

Create a reverse iterator over the content of the fragment. An explicit start and end offset can be given to have the iterator go over only part of the content. Note: start should be greater than end, when passed.

child(off:Β number) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Get the child at the given offset. Might return a text node that stretches before and/or after the offset.

forEach(f:Β fn(node:Β Node, start:Β number, end:Β number)) πŸ“„

Call the given function for each node in the fragment, passing it the node, its start offset, and its end offset.

chunkBefore(off:Β number) β†’Β {start:Β number, node:Β Node} πŸ“„

Find the node before the given offset. Returns an object containing the node as well as its start index. Offset should be greater than zero.

chunkAfter(off:Β number) β†’Β {start:Β number, node:Β Node} πŸ“„

Find the node after the given offset. Returns an object containing the node as well as its start index. Offset should be less than the fragment's size.

slice(from:Β number, to:Β ?number = this.size) β†’Β Fragment πŸ“„

Return a fragment with only the nodes between the given offsets. When to is not given, the slice will go to the end of the fragment.

replace(offset:Β number, node:Β Node) β†’Β Fragment πŸ“„

Deserialize a fragment from its JSON representation.

fromArray(array:Β [Node]) β†’Β Fragment πŸ“„

Build a fragment from an array of nodes.

from(nodes:Β ?union<Fragment, Node, [Node]>) β†’Β Fragment πŸ“„

Create a fragment from something that can be interpreted as a set of nodes. For null, it returns the empty fragment. For a fragment, the fragment itself. For a node or array of nodes, a fragment containing those nodes.

class Mark πŸ“„

A mark is a piece of information that can be attached to a node, such as it being emphasized, in code font, or a link. It has a type and optionally a set of attributes that provide further information (such as the target of the link). Marks are created through a Schema, which controls which types exist and which attributes they have.

Properties

type: MarkType πŸ“„

The type of this mark.

attrs: Object πŸ“„

The attributes associated with this mark.

Methods

toJSON() β†’Β Object πŸ“„

Convert this mark to a JSON-serializeable representation.

addToSet(set:Β [Mark]) β†’Β [Mark] πŸ“„

Given a set of marks, create a new set which contains this one as well, in the right position. If this mark or another of its type is already in the set, the set itself is returned.

removeFromSet(set:Β [Mark]) β†’Β [Mark] πŸ“„

Remove this mark from the given set, returning a new set. If this mark is not in the set, the set itself is returned.

isInSet(set:Β [Mark]) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Test whether this mark is in the given set of marks.

eq(other:Β Mark) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Create a properly sorted mark set from null, a single mark, or an unsorted array of marks.

class Pos πŸ“„

Instances of the Pos class represent positions in a document. A position is an array of integers that describe a path to the target node (see Node.path) and an integer offset into that target node.

Properties

path: [number] πŸ“„

The path to the target node.

offset: number πŸ“„

depth: number πŸ“„

The length of the position's path.

Methods

toString() πŸ“„

Return a string representation of the path of the form "0/2:10", where the numbers before the colon are the path, and the number after it is the offset.

max(other:Β Pos) β†’Β Pos πŸ“„

Return the greater of two positions.

min(other:Β Pos) β†’Β Pos πŸ“„

Return the lesser of two positions.

cmp(other:Β Pos) β†’Β number πŸ“„

Compares this position to another position, and returns a number. Of this result number, only the sign is significant. It is negative if this position is less than the other one, zero if they are the same, and positive if this position is greater.

shorten(to:Β ?number = null, offset:Β ?number = 0) β†’Β Pos πŸ“„

Create a position pointing into a parent of this position's target. When to is given, it determines the new length of the path. By default, the path becomes one shorter. The offset parameter can be used to determine where in this parent the position points. By default, it points before the old target. You can pass a negative or positive integer to move it backward or forward (note: this method performs no bounds checking).

move(by:Β number) β†’Β Pos πŸ“„

Create a position with an offset moved relative to this position's offset. For example moving 0/1:10 by -2 yields 0/1:8.

toPath(move:Β ?number = 0) β†’Β [number] πŸ“„

Convert this position to an array of numbers (including its offset). Optionally pass an argument to adjust the value of the offset.

isValid(doc:Β Node, requireTextblock:Β ?bool) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Build a position from an array of numbers (as in toPath), taking the last element of the array as offset and optionally moving it by move.

fromJSON(json:Β Object) β†’Β Pos πŸ“„

Create a position from a JSON representation.

class SchemaError πŸ“„

Extends ProseMirrorError.

The exception type used to signal schema-related errors.

class SchemaItem πŸ“„

The node and mark types that make up a schema have several things in commonβ€”they support attributes, and you can register values with them. This class implements this functionality, and acts as a superclass to those NodeType and MarkType.

Properties

attrs: Object<Attribute> πŸ“„

The set of attributes to associate with each node or mark of this type.

Static properties

updateAttrs(attrs:Β Object<?Attribute>) πŸ“„

Add or remove attributes from this type. Expects an object mapping names to either attributes (to add) or null (to remove the attribute by that name).

register(namespace:Β string, name:Β string, value:Β any) πŸ“„

Register a value in this type's registry. Various components use Schema.registry to query values from the marks and nodes that make up the schema. The namespace, for example "command", determines which component will see this value. name is a name specific to this value. Its meaning differs per namespace.

Subtypes inherit the registered values from their supertypes. They can override individual values by calling this method to overwrite them with a new value, or with null to disable them.

registerComputed(namespace:Β string, name:Β string, f:Β fn(SchemaItem) β†’Β any) πŸ“„

Register a value in this types's registry, like register, but providing a function that will be called with the actual node or mark type, whose return value will be treated as the effective value (or will be ignored, if null).

cleanNamespace(namespace:Β string) πŸ“„

By default, schema items inherit the registered items from their superclasses. Call this to disable that behavior for the given namespace.

class NodeType πŸ“„

Extends SchemaItem.

Node types are objects allocated once per Schema and used to tag Node instances with a type. They are instances of sub-types of this class, and contain information about the node type (its name, its allowed attributes, methods for serializing it to various formats, information to guide deserialization, and so on).

Properties

name: string πŸ“„

The name the node type has in this schema.

schema: Schema πŸ“„

A link back to the Schema the node type belongs to.

isBlock: bool πŸ“„

True if this is a block type.

isTextblock: bool πŸ“„

True if this is a textblock type, a block that contains inline content.

isInline: bool πŸ“„

True if this is an inline type.

isText: bool πŸ“„

True if this is the text node type.

selectable: bool πŸ“„

Controls whether nodes of this type can be selected (as a user node selection).

draggable: bool πŸ“„

Determines whether nodes of this type can be dragged. Enabling it causes ProseMirror to set a draggable attribute on its DOM representation, and to put its HTML serialization into the drag event's data transfer when dragged.

locked: bool πŸ“„

Controls whether this node type is locked.

contains: ?string πŸ“„

The kind of nodes this node may contain. null means it's a leaf node.

canBeEmpty: bool πŸ“„

Controls whether this node is allowed to be empty.

containsMarks: union<bool, [string]> πŸ“„

The mark types that child nodes of this node may have. false means no marks, true means any mark, and an array of strings can be used to explicitly list the allowed mark types.

findConnection(other:Β NodeType) β†’Β ?[NodeType] πŸ“„

Find a set of intermediate node types, possibly empty, that have to be inserted between this type and other to put a node of type other into this type.

create(attrs:Β ?Object, content:Β ?Fragment, marks:Β ?[Mark]) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Create a Node of this type. The given attributes are checked and defaulted (you can pass null to use the type's defaults entirely, if no required attributes exist). content may be a Fragment, a node, an array of nodes, or null. Similarly marks may be null to default to the empty set of marks.

Static properties

kinds: string πŸ“„

Controls the kind of the node, which is used to determine valid parent/child relations. Should be a single name or space-separated string of kind names, where later names are considered to be sub-kinds of former ones (for example "textblock paragraph"). When you want to extend the superclass' set of kinds, you can do something like

static get kinds() { return super.kind + " mykind" }

class Block πŸ“„

Extends NodeType.

Base type for block nodetypes.

class Textblock πŸ“„

Extends Block.

Base type for textblock node types.

class Inline πŸ“„

Extends NodeType.

Create an attribute. options is an object containing the settings for the attributes. The following settings are supported:

default: ?string
The default value for this attribute, to choose when no explicit value is provided.
compute: ?(Fragment) β†’ string
A function that computes a default value for the attribute from the node's content.
label: ?string
A user-readable text label associated with the attribute.

Attributes that have no default or compute property must be provided whenever a node or mark of a type that has them is created.

class MarkType πŸ“„

Extends SchemaItem.

Like nodes, marks (which are associated with nodes to signify things like emphasis or being part of a link) are tagged with type objects, which are instantiated once per Schema.

Properties

name: string πŸ“„

The name of the mark type.

schema: Schema πŸ“„

The schema that this mark type instance is part of.

Methods

create(attrs:Β Object) β†’Β Mark πŸ“„

Create a mark of this type. attrs may be null or an object containing only some of the mark's attributes. The others, if they have defaults, will be added.

removeFromSet(set:Β [Mark]) β†’Β [Mark] πŸ“„

When there is a mark of this type in the given set, a new set without it is returned. Otherwise, the input set is returned.

isInSet(set:Β [Mark]) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Tests whether there is a mark of this type in the given set.

Static properties

rank: number πŸ“„

Mark type ranks are used to determine the order in which mark arrays are sorted. (If multiple mark types end up with the same rank, they still get a fixed order in the schema, but there's no guarantee what it will be.)

class SchemaSpec πŸ“„

A schema specification is a blueprint for an actual Schema. It maps names to node and mark types, along with extra information, such as additional attributes and changes to node kinds and relations.

A specification consists of an object that associates node names with node type constructors and another similar object associating mark names with mark type constructors.

Constructor

new SchemaSpec(nodes:Β ?Object<NodeType>, marks:Β ?Object<MarkType>) πŸ“„

Create a schema specification from scratch. The arguments map node names to node type constructors and mark names to mark type constructors.

Methods

update(nodes:Β ?Object<?NodeType>, marks:Β ?Object<?MarkType>) β†’Β SchemaSpec πŸ“„

Base a new schema spec on this one by specifying nodes and marks to add or remove.

When nodes is passed, it should be an object mapping type names to either null, to delete the type of that name, or to a NodeType subclass, to add or replace the node type of that name.

Similarly, marks can be an object to add, change, or remove mark types in the schema.

class Schema πŸ“„

Each document is based on a single schema, which provides the node and mark types that it is made up of (which, in turn, determine the structure it is allowed to have).

Constructor

new Schema(spec:Β SchemaSpec) πŸ“„

Construct a schema from a specification.

Properties

spec: SchemaSpec πŸ“„

The specification on which the schema is based.

nodes: Object<NodeType> πŸ“„

marks: Object<MarkType> πŸ“„

A map from mark names to mark type objects.

cached: Object πŸ“„

An object for storing whatever values modules may want to compute and cache per schema. (If you want to store something in it, try to use property names unlikely to clash.)

Methods

Create a node in this schema. The type may be a string or a NodeType instance. Attributes will be extended with defaults, content may be a Fragment, null, a Node, or an array of nodes.

When creating a text node, content should be a string and is interpreted as the node's text.

This method is bound to the Schema, meaning you don't have to call it as a method, but can pass it to higher-order functions and such.

class BlockQuote πŸ“„

Extends Block.

The default blockquote node type.

class OrderedList πŸ“„

module transform

This module defines a way to transform documents. Transforming happens in Steps, which are atomic, well-defined modifications to a document. Applying a step produces a new document and a position map that maps positions in the old document to position in the new document. Steps can be inverted to create a step that undoes their effect, and chained together in a convenience object called a Transform.

This module does not depend on the browser API being available (i.e. you can load it into any JavaScript environment).

You can read more about transformations in this guide.

These are the types of steps defined:

join
Join two block elements together. from and to must point at the end of the first and start of the second element (so that the intention is preserved even when the positions are mapped).
split
Split a block node at pos. The parameter, if given, may be {type, ?attrs} object giving the node type and optionally the attributes of the node created to hold the content after the split.
ancestor
Change the stack of nodes that wrap the part of the document between from and to, which must point into the same parent node.The set of ancestors to replace is determined by the depth property of the step's parameter. If this is greater than zero, from and to must point at the start and end of a stack of nodes, of that depth, since this step will not split nodes.The set of new ancestors to wrap with is determined by the types and attrs properties of the parameter. The first should be an array of NodeTypes, and the second, optionally, an array of attribute objects.
replace
Delete the part of the document between from and to and optionally replace it with another chunk of content. pos must point at the β€˜root’ at which the cut startsβ€”a position between and above from and to.When new content is to be inserted, the step's parameter should be an object of shape {content:Fragment, openLeft: number, openRight: number}. The step will insert the given content at the root of the cut, and openLeft and openRight indicate how much of the content on both sides should be consided β€˜open’.A replace step will try to join open nodes on both sides of the cut. That is, nodes in the original document that are partially cut off by from and to, and nodes at the sides of the replacement content as specificed by openLeft and openRight. For example, if openLeft is 2, the first node of the replacement content as well as its first child is considered open. Whenever two open nodes with the same markup end up next to each other, they are joined. Open nodes that aren't joined are closed to ensure their content (or lack of it) is valid.
addMark
Add the Mark given as the step's parameter to all inline content between from and to (when allowed).
removeMark
Remove the Mark given as the step's parameter from all inline content between from and to.

class Step πŸ“„

A step object wraps an atomic operation. It generally applies only to the document it was created for, since the positions associated with it will only make sense for that document.

Constructor

new Step(type:Β string, from:Β ?Pos, to:Β ?Pos, pos:Β ?Pos, param:Β ?any = null) πŸ“„

Build a step. The type should name a defined step type, and the shape of the positions and parameter should be appropriate for that type.

Properties

type: string πŸ“„

The type of the step.

from: ?Pos πŸ“„

The start of the step's range, if any. Which of the three optional positions associated with a step a given step type uses differs. The way each of these positions is mapped when the step is mapped over a position mapping depends on its role.

to: ?Pos πŸ“„

The end of the step's range.

pos: ?Pos πŸ“„

The base position for this step.

param: ?any πŸ“„

Extra step-type-specific information associated with the step.

Methods

apply(doc:Β Node) β†’Β ?StepResult πŸ“„

Applies this step to the given document, returning a result containing the transformed document (the input document is not changed) and a PosMap. If the step could not meaningfully be applied to the given document, this returns null.

invert(oldDoc:Β Node, map:Β PosMap) β†’Β Step πŸ“„

Create an inverted version of this step. Needs the document as it was before the step, as well as PosMap created by applying the step to that document, as input.

map(remapping:Β Mappable) β†’Β ?Step πŸ“„

Map this step through a mappable thing, returning either a version of that step with its positions adjusted, or null if the step was entirely deleted by the mapping.

toJSON() β†’Β Object πŸ“„

Create a JSON-serializeable representation of this step.

Static properties

fromJSON(schema:Β Schema, json:Β Object) β†’Β Step πŸ“„

Deserialize a step from its JSON representation.

define(type:Β string, implementation:Β Object) πŸ“„

Define a new type of step. Implementation should have the following properties:

apply`(doc: Node, step: Step) β†’ ?StepResult
Applies the step to a document. invert`(step: Step, oldDoc: Node, map: PosMap) β†’ Step
Create an inverted version of the step. paramToJSON`(param: ?any) β†’ ?Object
Serialize this step type's parameter to JSON. paramFromJSON`(schema: Schema, json: ?Object) β†’ ?any
Deserialize this step type's parameter from JSON.

class StepResult πŸ“„

Objects of this type are returned as the result of applying a transform step to a document.

Properties

doc: Node πŸ“„

The transformed document.

map: PosMap πŸ“„

The position map that describes the correspondence between the old and the new document.

interface Mappable

There are various things that positions can be mapped through. We'll denote those as 'mappable'. This is not an actual class in the codebase, only an agreed-on interface.

map(pos:Β Pos, bias:Β ?number) β†’Β MapResult πŸ“„

Map a position through this object. When given, the bias determines in which direction to move when a chunk of content is inserted at or around the mapped position.

class PosMap πŸ“„

A position map, holding information about the way positions in the pre-step version of a document correspond to positions in the post-step version. This class implements Mappable.

Methods

map(pos:Β Pos, bias:Β ?number) β†’Β MapResult πŸ“„

Map the given position through this map. The bias parameter can be used to control what happens when the transform inserted content at (or around) this positionβ€”if bias is negative, the a position before the inserted content will be returned, if it is positive, a position after the insertion is returned.

invert() β†’Β PosMap πŸ“„

Create an inverted version of this map. The result can be used to map positions in the post-step document to the pre-step document.

class MapResult πŸ“„

The return value of mapping a position.

Properties

pos: Pos πŸ“„

The mapped version of the position.

deleted: bool πŸ“„

Tells you whether the position was deleted, that is, whether the step removed its surroundings from the document.

class Remapping πŸ“„

A remapping represents a pipeline of zero or more mappings. It is a specialized data structured used to manage mapping through a series of steps, typically including inverted and non-inverted versions of the same step. (This comes up when β€˜rebasing’ steps for collaboration or history management.) This class implements Mappable.

Constructor

new Remapping(head:Β ?[PosMap] = [], tail:Β ?[PosMap] = []) πŸ“„

Properties

head: [PosMap] πŸ“„

The maps in the head of the mapping are applied to input positions first, back-to-front. So the map at the end of this array (if any) is the very first one applied.

Methods

addToFront(map:Β PosMap, corr:Β ?number) β†’Β number πŸ“„

Add a map to the mapping's front. If this map is the mirror image (produced by an inverted step) of another map in this mapping, that map's id (as returned by this method or addToBack) should be passed as a second parameter to register the correspondence.

addToBack(map:Β PosMap, corr:Β ?number) β†’Β number πŸ“„

Add a map to the mapping's back. If the map is the mirror image of another mapping in this object, the id of that map should be passed to register the correspondence.

map(pos:Β Pos, bias:Β ?number) β†’Β MapResult πŸ“„

Map a position through this remapping, optionally passing a bias direction.

class Transform πŸ“„

A change to a document often consists of a series of steps. This class provides a convenience abstraction to build up and track such an array of steps. A Transform object implements Mappable.

The high-level transforming methods return the Transform object itself, so that they can be chained.

Constructor

new Transform(doc:Β Node) πŸ“„

Create a transformation that starts with the given document.

Properties

steps: [Step] πŸ“„

The accumulated steps.

docs: [Node] πŸ“„

The individual document versions. Always has a length one more than steps, since it also includes the original starting document.

maps: [PosMap] πŸ“„

The position maps produced by the steps. Has the same length as steps.

doc: Node πŸ“„

The current version of the transformed document.

before: Node πŸ“„

The original input document.

Methods

step(step:Β Step) β†’Β ?StepResult πŸ“„

Add a step to this transformation. If the step can be applied to the current document, the result of applying it is returned, and an element is added to the steps, docs, and maps arrays.

map(pos:Β Pos, bias:Β ?number) β†’Β MapResult πŸ“„

Map a position through the whole transformation (all the position maps in maps), and return the result.

join(at:Β Pos) β†’Β Transform πŸ“„

Join the blocks around the given position.

split(pos:Β Pos, depth:Β ?number = 1, typeAfter:Β ?NodeType, attrsAfter:Β ?Object) β†’Β Transform πŸ“„

Split the node at the given position, and optionally, if depth is greater than one, any number of nodes above that. By default, the part split off will inherit the node type of the original node. This can be changed by passing typeAfter and attrsAfter.

splitIfNeeded(pos:Β Pos, depth:Β ?number = 1) β†’Β Transform πŸ“„

Split at the given position, if that position isn't already at the start or end of a node. If depth is greater than one, also do so for parent positions above the given position.

lift(from:Β Pos, to:Β ?Pos = from) β†’Β Transform πŸ“„

Lift the nearest liftable ancestor of the sibling range of the given positions out of its parent (or do nothing if no such node exists).

wrap(from:Β Pos, to:Β ?Pos, type:Β NodeType, wrapAttrs:Β ?Object) β†’Β Transform πŸ“„

Wrap the sibling range of the given positions in a node of the given type, with the given attributes (if possible).

Tells you whether the given positions' sibling range, or any of its ancestor nodes, can be lifted out of a parent.

canWrap(doc:Β Node, from:Β Pos, to:Β ?Pos, type:Β NodeType) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Determines whether the sibling range of the given positions can be wrapped in the given node type.

module format

This module provides a way to register and access functions that serialize and parse ProseMirror documents to and from various formats, along with the basic formats required to run the editor.

These are the formats defined by this module:

"json"
Uses Node.toJSON and Schema.nodeFromJSON to convert a document to and from JSON.
"dom"
Parses DOM Nodes, serializes to a DOM fragment. See toDOM and fromDOM.
"html"
Serialize to and parse from HTML text. See toHTML and fromHTML.
"text"
Convert to and from plain text. See toText and fromText.

The markdown module in the distribution defines an additional format:

"markdown"
Convert to and from CommonMark marked-up text. See toMarkdown and fromMarkdown.

interface DOMParseSpec

To define the way node and mark types are parsed, you can associate one or more DOM parsing specifications to them using the register method with the "parseDOM" namespace, using the HTML node name (lowercase) as value name. Each of them defines a parsing strategy for a certain type of DOM node. When "_" is used as name, the parser is activated for all nodes.

rank: ?number πŸ“„

The precedence of this parsing strategy. Should be a number between 0 and 100, which determines when this parser gets a chance relative to others that apply to the node (low ranks go first). Defaults to

parse: union<string, fn(dom:Β DOMNode, state:Β DOMParseState) β†’Β ?bool> πŸ“„

The function that, given a DOM node, parses it, updating the parse state. It should return (the exact value) false when it wants to indicate that it was not able to parse this node. This function is called in such a way that this is bound to the type that the parse spec was associated with.

When this is set to the string "block", the content of the DOM node is parsed as the content in a node of the type that this spec was associated with.

When set to the string "mark", the content of the DOM node is parsed with an instance of the mark that this spec was associated with added to their marks.

class DOMParseState πŸ“„

A state object used to track context during a parse, and to expose methods to custom parsing functions.

Properties

options: Object πŸ“„

The options passed to this parse.

schema: Schema πŸ“„

The schema that we are parsing into.

Methods

insert(type:Β DOMNode, attrs:Β NodeType, content:Β ?Object, [Node]) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Insert a node of the given type, with the given content, based on dom, at the current position in the document.

wrapIn(dom:Β DOMNode, type:Β NodeType, attrs:Β ?Object) πŸ“„

Parse the contents of dom as children of a node of the given type.

wrapMark(inner:Β DOMNode, mark:Β Mark) πŸ“„

Parse the contents of dom, with mark added to the set of current marks.

class DOMSerializer πŸ“„

Object used to to expose relevant values and methods to DOM serializer functions.

Properties

options: Object πŸ“„

The options passed to the serializer.

doc: DOMDocument πŸ“„

The DOM document in which we are working.

Methods

elt(type:Β string, attrs:Β ?Object, ...content:Β union<string, DOMNode>) β†’Β DOMNode πŸ“„

Create a DOM node of the given type, with (optionally) the given attributes and content. Content elements may be strings (for text nodes) or other DOM nodes.

renderAs(node:Β Node, tagName:Β string, tagAttrs:Β ?Object) β†’Β DOMNode πŸ“„

Render the content of ProseMirror node into a DOM node with the given tag name and attributes.

Functions

serializeTo(doc:Β Node, format:Β string, options:Β ?Object) β†’Β any πŸ“„

Serialize the given document to the given format. If options is given, it will be passed along to the serializer function.

knownTarget(format:Β string) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Query whether a given serialization format has been registered.

defineTarget(format:Β string, func:Β fn(Node, ?Object) β†’Β any) πŸ“„

Register a function as the serializer for format.

parseFrom(schema:Β Schema, value:Β any, format:Β string, options:Β ?Object) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Parse document value from the format named by format. If options is given, it is passed along to the parser function.

knownSource(format:Β string) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Query whether a parser for the named format has been registered.

defineSource(format:Β string, func:Β fn(Schema, any, ?Object) β†’Β Node) πŸ“„

Register a parser function for format.

fromDOM(schema:Β Schema, dom:Β DOMNode, options:Β ?Object) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Parse document from the content of a DOM node. To pass an explicit parent document (for example, when not in a browser window environment, where we simply use the global document), pass it as the document property of options.

fromHTML(schema:Β Schema, html:Β string, options:Β ?Object) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Parses the HTML into a DOM, and then calls through to fromDOM.

toDOM(node:Β Node, options:Β ?Object) β†’Β DOMFragment πŸ“„

Serialize the content of the given node to a DOM fragment. When not in the browser, the document option, containing a DOM document, should be passed so that the serialize can create nodes.

To define rendering behavior for your own node and mark types, give them a serializeDOM method. This method is passed a Node and a DOMSerializer, and should return the DOM node that represents this node and its content. For marks, that should be an inline wrapping node like <a> or <strong>.

Individual attributes can also define serialization behavior. If an Attribute object has a serializeDOM method, that will be called with the DOM node representing the node that the attribute applies to and the atttribute's value, so that it can set additional DOM attributes on the DOM node.

nodeToDOM(node:Β Node, options:Β ?Object) β†’Β DOMNode πŸ“„

Serialize a given node to a DOM node. This is useful when you need to serialize a part of a document, as opposed to the whole document.

toHTML(node:Β Node, options:Β ?Object) β†’Β string πŸ“„

Serialize a node as an HTML string. Goes through toDOM and then serializes the result. Again, you must pass a document option when not in the browser.

fromText(schema:Β Schema, text:Β string) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Convert a string into a simple ProseMirror document.

toText(doc:Β Node) β†’Β string πŸ“„

Serialize a node as a plain text string.

module markdown

Defines a parser and serializer for CommonMark text (registered in the format module under "markdown").

interface MarkdownParseSpec

Schema-specific parsing logic can be defined registering values with parsing information on mark and node types, using the "parseMarkdown" namespace.

The name of the registered item should be the markdown-it token name that the parser should respond to,

To influence the way the markdown-it parser is initialized and configured, you can register values under the "configureMarkdown" namespace. An item with the name "init" will be called to initialize the parser. Items with other names will be called with a parser and should return a parser. You could for example configure a subscript mark to enable the subscript plugin:

SubMark.register("configureMarkdown", "sub", parser => {
  return parser.use(require("markdown-it-sub"))
})
parse: union<string, fn(state:Β MarkdownParseState, token:Β MarkdownToken) β†’Β Node> πŸ“„

The parsing function for this token. It is, when a matching token is encountered, passed the parsing state and the token, and must return a Node if the parsing spec was for a node type, and a Mark if it was for a mark type.

The function will be called so that this is bound to the node or mark type instance that the spec was associated with.

As a shorthand, parse can be set to a string. You can use "block" to create a node of the type that this spec was associated with, and wrap the content between the open and close tokens in this node.

Alternatively, it can be set to "mark", if the spec is associated with a mark type, which will cause the content between the opening and closing token to be marked with an instance of that mark type.

attrs: ?union<Object, fn(MarkdownParseState, MarkdownToken) β†’Β Object> πŸ“„

When parse is set to a string, this property can be used to specify attributes for the node or mark. It may hold an object or a function that, when called with the parser state and the token object, returns an attribute object.

class MarkdownParseState πŸ“„

Object used to track the context of a running parse, and to expose parsing-related methods to node-specific parsing functions.

Properties

schema: Schema πŸ“„

The schema into which we are parsing.

Methods

addText(text:Β string) πŸ“„

Adds the given text to the current position in the document, using the current marks as styling.

openMark(mark:Β Mark) πŸ“„

Adds the given mark to the set of active marks.

closeMark(mark:Β Mark) πŸ“„

Removes the given mark from the set of active marks.

addNode(type:Β NodeType, attrs:Β ?Object, content:Β ?[Node]) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Add a node at the current position.

openNode(type:Β NodeType, attrs:Β ?Object) πŸ“„

Wrap subsequent content in a node of the given type.

closeNode() β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Close and return the node that is currently on top of the stack.

getAttr(tok:Β MarkdownToken, name:Β string) β†’Β any πŸ“„

Retrieve the named attribute from the given token.

class MarkdownSerializer πŸ“„

This is an object used to track state and expose methods related to markdown serialization. Instances are passed to node and mark serialization methods (see toMarkdown).

Methods

wrapBlock(delim:Β string, firstDelim:Β ?string, node:Β Node, f:Β fn()) πŸ“„

Render a block, prefixing each line with delim, and the first line in firstDelim. node should be the node that is closed at the end of the block, and f is a function that renders the content of the block.

ensureNewLine() πŸ“„

Ensure the current content ends with a newline.

write(content:Β ?string) πŸ“„

Prepare the state for writing output (closing closed paragraphs, adding delimiters, and so on), and then optionally add content (unescaped) to the output.

closeBlock(node:Β Node) πŸ“„

Close the block for the given node.

text(text:Β string, escape:Β ?bool) πŸ“„

Add the given text to the document. When escape is not false, it will be escaped.

render(node:Β Node) πŸ“„

Render the given node as a block.

renderContent(parent:Β Node) πŸ“„

Render the contents of parent as block nodes.

renderInline(parent:Β Node) πŸ“„

Render the contents of parent as inline content.

esc(str:Β string, startOfLine:Β ?bool) β†’Β string πŸ“„

Escape the given string so that it can safely appear in Markdown content. If startOfLine is true, also escape characters that has special meaning only at the start of the line.

repeat(str:Β string, n:Β number) β†’Β string πŸ“„

Repeat the given string n times.

Functions

fromMarkdown(schema:Β Schema, text:Β string) β†’Β Node πŸ“„

Parse a string as CommonMark markup, and create a ProseMirror document corresponding to its meaning. Note that, by default, some CommonMark features, namely inline HTML and tight lists, are not supported.

toMarkdown(doc:Β Node) β†’Β string πŸ“„

Serialize the content of the given node to CommonMark.

To define serialization behavior for your own node types, give them a serializeMarkDown method. It will be called with a MarkdownSerializer and a Node, and should update the serializer's state to add the content of the node.

Mark types can define openMarkdown and closeMarkdown properties, which provide the markup text that marked content should be wrapped in. They may hold either a string or a function from a MarkdownSerializer and a Mark to a string.

module inputrules

This module defines a way to attach β€˜input rules’ to an editor, which can react to or transform text typed by the user. It also comes with a bunch of default rules that can be enabled with the autoInput option.

Options

autoInput: union<bool, [union<string, Object<?InputRule>>]> πŸ“„

Controls the input rules initially active in the editor. Pass an array of sources, which can be either the string "schema", to add rules registered on the schema items (under the namespace "autoInput"), or an object containing input rules. To remove previously included rules, you can add an object that maps their name to null.

The value false (the default) is a shorthand for no input rules, and the value true for ["schema", autoInputRules].

class InputRule πŸ“„

Input rules are regular expressions describing a piece of text that, when typed, causes something to happen. This might be changing two dashes into an emdash, wrapping a paragraph starting with "> " into a blockquote, or something entirely different.

Constructor

new InputRule(match:Β RegExp, filter:Β ?string, handler:Β union<string, fn(ProseMirror, [string], Pos)>) πŸ“„

Create an input rule. The rule applies when the user typed something and the text directly in front of the cursor matches match, which should probably end with $. You can optionally provide a filter, which should be a single character that always appears at the end of the match, and will be used to only apply the rule when there's an actual chance of it succeeding.

The handler can be a string, in which case the matched text will simply be replaced by that string, or a function, which will be called with the match array produced by RegExp.exec, and should produce the effect of the rule.

Functions

addInputRule(pm:Β ProseMirror, rule:Β InputRule) πŸ“„

Add the given input rule to an editor. From now on, whenever the rule's pattern is typed, its handler is activated.

Note that the effect of an input rule can be canceled by pressing Backspace right after it happens.

removeInputRule(pm:Β ProseMirror, rule:Β InputRule) πŸ“„

Remove the given rule (added earlier with addInputRule) from the editor.

Constants

autoInputRules: Object<InputRule> πŸ“„

Base set of input rules, enabled by default when autoInput is set to true.

When given a truthy value, enables the menu bar module for this editor. The menu bar takes up space above the editor, showing currently available commands (that have been added to the menu). To configure the module, you can pass a configuration object, on which the following properties are supported:

float: bool = false
When enabled, causes the menu bar to stay visible when the editor is partially scrolled out of view, by making it float at the top of the viewport.
groups: [string] = ["inline", "insert", "block", "history"]
Determines the menu groups that are shown in the menu bar.
items: [union<string, [string]>]
Can be used to, rather than getting the commands to display from menu groups, explicitly provide the full list of commands. If nested arrays are used, separators will be shown between items from different arrays.
tooltipMenu: union<bool, Object> πŸ“„

When given a truthy value, enables the tooltip menu module for this editor. This menu shows up when there is a selection, and optionally in certain other circumstances, providing context-relevant commands.

By default, the tooltip will show inline menu commands (registered with the menuGroup command property) when there is an inline selection, and block related commands when there is a node selection on a block.

The module can be configured by passing an object. These properties are recognized:

showLinks: bool = true
Causes a tooltip with the link target to show up when the cursor is inside of a link (without a selection).
selectedBlockMenu: bool = false`
When enabled, and a whole block is selected or the cursor is inside an empty block, the block menu gets shown.
inlineGroups: [string] = ["inline", "insert"]
The menu groups to show when displaying the menu for inline content.
inlineItems: [union<string, [string]>]
Instead of using menu groups, this can be used to completely override the set of commands shown for inline content. If nested arrays are used, separators will be shown between items from different arrays.
blockGroups: [string] = ["insert", "block"]
The menu groups to show when displaying the menu for block content.
blockItems: [union<string, [string]>]
Overrides the commands shown for block content.

interface CommandSpec

The menu module gives meaning to two additional properties of command specs.

menuGroup: string πŸ“„

Adds the command to the menugroup with the given name. The value may either be just a name (for example "inline" or "block"), or a name followed by a parenthesized rank ("inline(40)") to control the order in which the commands appear in the group (from low to high, with 50 as default rank).

display: Object πŸ“„

Determines how a command is shown in the menu. The object should have a type property, which picks a style of display. These types are supported:

"icon"
Show the command as an icon. The object may have {path, width, height} properties, where path is an SVG path spec, and width and height provide the viewbox in which that path exists. Alternatively, it may have a text property specifying a string of text that makes up the icon, with an optional style property giving additional CSS styling for the text.
"param"
Render command based on its first and only parameter, and immediately execute the command when the parameter is changed. Currently only works for "select" parameters.
paramTypes: Object<{render:Β fn(param:Β CommandParam, value:Β any) β†’Β DOMNode, read:Β fn(node:Β DOMNode) β†’Β any}> πŸ“„

A collection of default renderers and readers for parameter types, which parameter handlers can optionally use to prompt for parameters. render should create a form field for the parameter, and read should, given that field, return its value.

module ui/tooltip

class Tooltip πŸ“„

Used to show tooltips. An instance of this class is a persistent DOM node (to allow position and opacity animation) that can be shown and hidden. It is positioned relative to a position (passed when showing the tooltip), and points at that position with a little arrow-like triangle attached to the node.

Constructor

new Tooltip(wrapper:Β DOMNode, dir:Β string) πŸ“„

Create a new tooltip that lives in the wrapper node, which should be its offset anchor, i.e. it should have a relative or absolute CSS position. You'll often want to pass an editor's wrapper node. dir may be "above", "below", "right", "left", or "center". In the latter case, the tooltip has no arrow and is positioned centered in its wrapper node.

Methods

detach() πŸ“„

Remove the tooltip from the DOM.

open(node:Β DOMNode, pos:Β ?{left:Β number, top:Β number}) πŸ“„

Make the tooltip visible, show the given node in it, and position it relative to the given position. If pos is not given, the tooltip stays in its previous place. Unless the tooltip's direction is "center", pos should definitely be given the first time it is shown.

close() πŸ“„

Close (hide) the tooltip.

module ui/update

class UpdateScheduler πŸ“„

Helper for scheduling updates whenever any of a series of events happen.

Constructor

new UpdateScheduler(pm:Β ProseMirror, events:Β string, start:Β fn() β†’Β ?fn()) πŸ“„

Creates an update scheduler for the given editor. events should be a space-separated list of event names (for example "selectionChange change"). start should be a function as expected by scheduleDOMUpdate.

Methods

detach() πŸ“„

Detach the event handlers registered by this scheduler.

force() πŸ“„

Force an update. Note that if the editor has scheduled a flush, the update is still delayed until the flush occurs.

Functions

scheduleDOMUpdate(pm:Β ProseMirror, f:Β fn() β†’Β ?fn() β†’Β ?fn()) πŸ“„

Schedule a DOM update function to be called either the next time the editor is flushed, or if no flush happens immediately, after 200 milliseconds. This is used to synchronize DOM updates and read to prevent DOM layout thrashing.

Often, your updates will need to both read and write from the DOM. To schedule such access in lockstep with other modules, the function you give can return another function, which may return another function, and so on. The first call should write to the DOM, and not read. If a read needs to happen, that should be done in the function returned from the first call. If that has to be followed by another write, that should be done in a function returned from the second function, and so on.

unscheduleDOMUpdate(pm:Β ProseMirror, f:Β fn() β†’Β ?fn() β†’Β ?fn()) πŸ“„

Cancel an update scheduled with scheduleDOMUpdate. Calling this with a function that is not actually scheduled is harmless.

module collab

This module implements an API into which a communication channel for collaborative editing can be hooked. See this guide for more details and an example. :: ?Object #path=collab #kind=option

When given, enables the collaborative editing framework for the editor. Will register itself of the Collab class as .mod.collab.

If the object given has a version property, that will determine the starting version number of the collaborative editing.

Options

collab: ?Object πŸ“„

When given, enables the collaborative editing framework for the editor. Will register itself of the Collab class as .mod.collab.

If the object given has a version property, that will determine the starting version number of the collaborative editing.

class Collab πŸ“„

This class accumulates changes that have to be sent to the central authority in the collaborating group, signals an event when it has something to send, and makes it possible to integrate changes made by peers into our local document. It is created and attached to the editor (under .mod.collab) by setting the collab option.

Includes the event mixin.

Properties

version: number πŸ“„

The version number of the last update received from the central authority. Starts at 0 or the value of the version property in the option object, for the editor's value when the option was enabled.

Methods

hasSendableSteps() β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Reports whether the editor has any unsent steps.

sendableSteps() β†’Β {version:Β number, doc:Β Node, steps:Β [Step]} πŸ“„

Provides the data describing the editor's unconfirmed steps. The version and array of steps are the things you'd send to the central authority. The whole return value must be passed to confirmSteps when the steps go through.

confirmSteps(sendable:Β {version:Β number, doc:Β Node, steps:Β [Step]}) πŸ“„

Tells the module that a set of unconfirmed steps have been accepted by the central authority, and can now be considered confirmed.

receive(steps:Β [Step]) β†’Β [PosMap] πŸ“„

Pushes a set of steps (made by peers and received from the central authority) into the editor. This will rebase any unconfirmed steps over these steps.

Returns the position maps produced by applying the steps.

Events

mustSend() πŸ“„

Fired when there are new steps to send to the central authority. Consumers should respond by calling sendableSteps and pushing those to the authority.

module util/event

interface EventMixin

A set of methods for objects that emit events. Added by calling eventMixin on a constructor.

on(type:Β string, handler:Β fn(...args:Β [any])) πŸ“„

Register an event handler for the given event type.

off(type:Β string, handler:Β fn(...args:Β [any])) πŸ“„

Unregister an event handler for the given event type.

signal(type:Β string, ...args:Β [any]) πŸ“„

Signal an event of the given type, passing any number of arguments. Will call the handlers for the event, passing them the arguments.

signalHandleable(type:Β string, ...args:Β [any]) πŸ“„

Signal a handleable event of the given type. All handlers for the event will be called with the given arguments, until one of them returns something that is not the value false. When that happens, the return value of that handler is returned. If that does not happen, false is returned.

hasHandler(type:Β string) β†’Β bool πŸ“„

Query whether there are any handlers for this event type.

Functions

eventMixin(ctor:Β fn()) πŸ“„

Add the methods in the EventMixin interface to the prototype object of the given constructor.
