slate-sidebar

Quick and easy way to implement sidebar menu in your slate editor

Installation

$ npm install --save slate-sidebar

Usage

slate-sidebar is the easiest way to implement a medium-like sidebar in your slate editor.

Just add a decorator @sidebar() on you editor component. The parent component of this component must pass two props value: Value and onChange: (change: Change) => void.

import sidebar from "slate-sidebar";

@sidebar() // ----> Add this line and your sidebar is implemented in your editor
class EditorContainer extends React.Component<Props> {
  // On change, update the app's React state with the new editor state.
  render() {
    return (
      <div className="editor">
        <Editor {...this.props} />
      </div>
    );
  }
}

class App extends React.Component<{}, { value: Value }> {
  // Set the initial state when the app is first constructed.
  state = {
    value: initialValue
  };

  render() {
    return (
      <div className="container markdown-body">
        <EditorContainer
          value={this.state.value}
          onChange={({ value }) => this.setState({ value })}
          plugins={plugins}
        />
      </div>
    );
  }
}
