A React Component for SunEditor
$ npm install --save suneditor suneditor-react # make sure to install suneditor yourselfimport React from 'react';
import SunEditor from 'suneditor-react';
import 'suneditor/dist/css/suneditor.min.css'; // Import Sun Editor's CSS File
const MyComponent = props => {
return (
<div>
<p> My Other Contents </p>
<SunEditor />
</div>
);
};
export default MyComponent;To use suneditor-react with Next.js, please use the dynamic import syntax like below:
import React from 'react';
import dynamic from "next/dynamic";
import 'suneditor/dist/css/suneditor.min.css'; // Import Sun Editor's CSS File
const SunEditor = dynamic(() => import("suneditor-react"), {
ssr: false,
});
const MyComponent = props => {
return (
<div>
<p> My Other Contents </p>
<SunEditor />
</div>
);
};
export default MyComponent;Note: suneditor-react doesn't expose the core object in the callback functions such as onScroll etc. This is because it can be easily retrieved by using the getSunEditorInstance like below.
// Javascript Version
import React, { useRef, useEffect } from "react";
import SunEditor from 'suneditor-react';

// The sunEditor parameter will be set to the core suneditor instance when this function is called
const getSunEditorInstance = (sunEditor) => {
editor.current = sunEditor;
};
return (
<div>
<p> My Other Contents </p>
<SunEditor getSunEditorInstance={getSunEditorInstance} />
</div>
);
};

import SunEditorCore from "suneditor/src/lib/core";
import 'suneditor/dist/css/suneditor.min.css'; // Import Sun Editor's CSS File
const MyComponent = props => {
const editor = useRef<SunEditorCore>();
// The sunEditor parameter will be set to the core suneditor instance when this function is called

};
return (

<SunEditor getSunEditorInstance={getSunEditorInstance} />
</div>
);
};
export default MyComponent;lang
Language of editor
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor lang="en" />
// Default is en
// lang prop can be one of the strings provided in this array ["en", "da", "de", "es", "fr", "ja", "ko", "pt_br", "ru", "zh_cn", "ro", "pl", "ckb", "lv", "se", "ua", "he", "it"]
// Alternatively, an object of your language can be passed to this prop. To learn how to do it refer to the bottom of the page
}name
HTML form name of editor
This is used to set the HTML form name of the editor. This means on HTML form submission, it will be submitted together with contents of the editor by the name provided.
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor name="my-editor" />
}defaultValue
Set Editor's default value
//...
// Sets the default value of the editor.
// This is useful if you don't want the onChange method to be called on render.
// If you want the onChange method to be called on render please use the setContents prop
render() {
return <SunEditor defaultValue="<p>The editor's default value</p>" />
}width
Set Editor's width
//...
// px and percentage values are accepted
// eg width="100%" or width="500px"
// default is 100%
render() {
return <SunEditor width="100%" />
}height
Set Editor's height
//...
// px and percentage values are accepted
// eg height="100%" or height="100px"
render() {
return <SunEditor height="100%" />
}placeholder
Set Editor's placeholder
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor placeholder="Please type here..." />
}autoFocus
Should editor focus when initialized
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor autoFocus={true} />
}setOptions
Set Options (Settings) for the editor Click to see all options available
Important Note: Some toolbar buttons in suneditor require specific plugins to make them work properly. For example when you specify 'font' in the button list, you will need to import the required plugin from suneditor. suneditor-react by default loads all plugins. To change this behaviour, you can pass a plugin list of only the plugins you would like to load to the plugin option. This will override the default behaviour. To disable the loading of all plugins, set the setAllPlugins prop to false. Read More by clicking this
import SunEditor,{buttonList} from "suneditor-react";
/*
buttonList.basic = basic buttons for wordprocessing
buttonList.formatting = most tools used for formatting - This is the default option
buttonList.complex = contains most of the buttons
*/
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor setOptions={{
height: 200,
buttonList: buttonList.formatting // Or Array of button list, eg. [['font', 'align'], ['image']]
// plugins: [font] set plugins, all plugins are set by default
// Other option
}} />
}setAllPlugins
Sets all plugins used by buttons. Default value is true
import SunEditor,{buttonList} from "suneditor-react";
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor setAllPlugins={false} /> // When set to false, you must explicitly set required plugins
}setContents
Set Editor's Content
Note: To set the initial contents of the editor without calling the onChange event please use the defaultValue prop.
setContents is used to set the contents of the editor programmatically. You must be aware that, when the setContents's prop changes, the onChange event is triggered.
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor setContents="My contents" />
}appendContents
Append Editor Content
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor appendContents="My contents" />
}setDefaultStyle
Set the default style of the editor's edit area
//...
render() {
return <SunEditor setDefaultStyle="font-family: cursive; font-size: 10px;" />
}disable
Disable Editor
//...
render() {
// set to false to enable, default value is false
return <SunEditor disable={true} />
}hide
Hide Editor
//...
render() {
// set to false to hide, default value is false
return <SunEditor hide={true} />
}hideToolbar
Hide Editor Toolbar
//...
render() {
// set to false to hide toolbar, default value is false
return <SunEditor hideToolbar={true} />
}disableToolbar
Disable Editor Toolbar
//...
render() {
// set to false to enable toolbar, default value is false
return <SunEditor disableToolbar={true} />
}Note that you need to bind the function passed to the event in the constructor if you are using a class Component, or use arrow functions instead. This is just how react works. Otherwise it won't work. This documentation assumes you bind all your class component methods to the constructor. Eg below:
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this)
}onChange

console.log(content); //Get Content Inside Editor

handleScroll(event){
console.log(event); //Get the scroll event

handleClick(event){
console.log(event); //Get the click event
