excalidrawbasic v0.0.12

Excalidraw

Excalidraw is exported as a component to directly embed in your projects.

Fork Information

This is a fork of the original Excalidraw project, modified to meet specific needs. It is open to any suggestions or improvements.

New Features

We have exposed the function addElementsFromPasteOrLibrary in <Excalidraw excalidrawAPI={(api) => setExcalidrawAPI(api)} />. This allows you to add elements from outside the context of Excalidraw, making integration easier.

Additionally, we have exposed the function convertMermaidToExcalidraw, which allows you to provide a Mermaid diagram and returns the necessary elements to be injected and edited in Excalidraw with the addElementsFromPasteOrLibrary API.

Installation

You can use npm

npm install react react-dom excalidrawbasic

or via yarn

yarn add react react-dom excalidrawbasic

After installation you will see a folder excalidraw-assets and excalidraw-assets-dev in dist directory which contains the assets needed for this app in prod and dev mode respectively.

Move the folder excalidraw-assets and excalidraw-assets-dev to the path where your assets are served.

By default it will try to load the files from https://unpkg.com/excalidrawbasic/dist/

If you want to load assets from a different path you can set a variable window.EXCALIDRAW_ASSET_PATH depending on environment (for example if you have different URL's for dev and prod) to the url from where you want to load the assets.

Note

If you don't want to wait for the next stable release and try out the unreleased changes you can use excalidrawbasic@next.
