Components
With this module is possible to manage components inside the canvas. You can customize the initial state of the module from the editor initialization, by passing the following Configuration Object
const editor = grapesjs.init({
domComponents: {
// options
}
})
Once the editor is instantiated you can use its API and listen to its events. Before using these methods, you should get the module from the instance.
// Listen to events
editor.on('component:create', () => { ... });
// Use the API
const cmp = editor.Components;
cmp.addType(...);
Available Events
component:create- Component is created (only the model, is not yet mounted in the canvas), called after the init() methodcomponent:mount- Component is mounted to an element and rendered in canvascomponent:add- Triggered when a new component is added to the editor, the model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:remove- Triggered when a component is removed, the model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:remove:before- Triggered before the remove of the component, the model, remove function (if aborted via options, with this function you can complete the remove) and options (use options.abort = true to prevent remove), are passed as arguments to the callbackcomponent:clone- Triggered when a component is cloned, the new model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:update- Triggered when a component is updated (moved, styled, etc.), the model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:update:{propertyName}- Listen any property change, the model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:styleUpdate- Triggered when the style of the component is updated, the model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:styleUpdate:{propertyName}- Listen for a specific style property change, the model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:selected- New component selected, the selected model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:deselected- Component deselected, the deselected model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:toggled- Component selection changed, toggled model is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:type:add- New component type added, the new type is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:type:update- Component type updated, the updated type is passed as an argument to the callbackcomponent:drag:start- Component drag started. Passed an object, to the callback, containing thetarget(component to drag),parent(parent of the component) andindex(component index in the parent)component:drag- During component drag. Passed the same object as incomponent:drag:startevent, but in this case,parentandindexare updated by the current pointercomponent:drag:end- Component drag ended. Passed the same object as incomponent:drag:startevent, but in this case,parentandindexare updated by the final pointercomponent:resize- During component resize.
Methods
getWrapper
Returns root component inside the canvas. Something like <body> inside HTML page
The wrapper doesn't differ from the original Component Model
Examples
// Change background of the wrapper and set some attribute
var wrapper = cmp.getWrapper();
wrapper.set('style', {'background-color': 'red'});
wrapper.set('attributes', {'title': 'Hello!'});
Returns Component Root Component
getComponents
Returns wrapper's children collection. Once you have the collection you can add other Components(Models) inside. Each component can have several nested components inside and you can nest them as more as you wish.
Examples
// Let's add some component
var wrapperChildren = cmp.getComponents();
var comp1 = wrapperChildren.add({
style: { 'background-color': 'red'}
});
var comp2 = wrapperChildren.add({
tagName: 'span',
attributes: { title: 'Hello!'}
});
// Now let's add an other one inside first component
// First we have to get the collection inside. Each
// component has 'components' property
var comp1Children = comp1.get('components');
// Procede as before. You could also add multiple objects
comp1Children.add([
{ style: { 'background-color': 'blue'}},
{ style: { height: '100px', width: '100px'}}
]);
// Remove comp2
wrapperChildren.remove(comp2);
Returns Components Collection of components
addComponent
Add new components to the wrapper's children. It's the same as 'cmp.getComponents().add(...)'
Parameters
-
component(Object | Component | Array<Object>) Component/s to addcomponent.tagNamestring Tag name (optional, default'div')component.typestring Type of the component. Available: ''(default), 'text', 'image' (optional, default'')component.removableboolean If component is removable (optional, defaulttrue)component.draggableboolean If is possible to move the component around the structure (optional, defaulttrue)component.droppableboolean If is possible to drop inside other components (optional, defaulttrue)component.badgableboolean If the badge is visible when the component is selected (optional, defaulttrue)component.stylableboolean If is possible to style component (optional, defaulttrue)component.copyableboolean If is possible to copy&paste the component (optional, defaulttrue)component.contentstring String inside component (optional, default'')component.styleObject Style object (optional, default{})component.attributesObject Attribute object (optional, default{})
-
optObject the options object to be used by the [Components.add]getComponents method (optional, default{})
Examples
// Example of a new component with some extra property
var comp1 = cmp.addComponent({
tagName: 'div',
removable: true, // Can't remove it
draggable: true, // Can't move it
copyable: true, // Disable copy/past
content: 'Content text', // Text inside component
style: { color: 'red'},
attributes: { title: 'here' }
