react-drafts v1.0.3
React Drafts
React-based WYSIWYG editor built using DraftJS. Aim is to support the most commonly requested editor features, plus some uncommonly found features like support for tables.
Installation
$ npm install react-drafts
Use
This package includes a Common module build at /lib and a UMD bundle in /dist. Most applications will use the Common build by importing ReactDrafts as below.
## editor parent component
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import ReactDrafts from 'react-drafts';
class MyEditor extends Component {
...
render() {
return (
<div>
<button onClick={this.handleSave}>Save</button>
<button onClick={this.handleClear}>Clear</button>
<ReactDrafts
onFileUpload={this.handleFileUpload}
exportTo="raw"
/>
</div>
);
}
}To include styles, just import the css file from /dist, ie:
## manifest.css
@import <path_to>/node_modules/react-drafts/dist/react-drafts.cssSee the demo directory for a more complete example. Demo contains a sample editor parent container that instantiates the ReactDrafts component and passes in props.
