This extension will make a contextual menu appear near a selection of text. Use it to let users apply [marks](/api/marks) to their text selection.

As always, the markup and styling is totally up to you.

## Usage

### JavaScript
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import BubbleMenu from '@tiptap/extension-bubble-menu'

new Editor({
  extensions: [
    BubbleMenu.configure({
      element: document.querySelector('.menu'),
    }),
  ],
})
```

### Frameworks
<tiptap-demo name="Extensions/BubbleMenu"></tiptap-demo>

### Custom logic
Customize the logic for showing the menu with the `shouldShow` option. For components, `shouldShow` can be passed as a prop.

```js
BubbleMenu.configure({
  shouldShow: ({ editor, view, state, oldState, from, to }) => {
    // only show the bubble menu for images and links
    return editor.isActive('image') || editor.isActive('link')
  },
})
```

### Multiple menus
Use multiple menus by setting an unique `pluginKey`.

```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import BubbleMenu from '@tiptap/extension-bubble-menu'

new Editor({
  extensions: [
    BubbleMenu.configure({
      pluginKey: 'bubbleMenuOne',
      element: document.querySelector('.menu-one'),
    }),
    BubbleMenu.configure({
      pluginKey: 'bubbleMenuTwo',
      element: document.querySelector('.menu-two'),
    }),
  ],
})
```

Alternatively you can pass a ProseMirror `PluginKey`.

```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import BubbleMenu from '@tiptap/extension-bubble-menu'
import { PluginKey } from 'prosemirror-state'

new Editor({
  extensions: [
    BubbleMenu.configure({
      pluginKey: new PluginKey('bubbleMenuOne'),
      element: document.querySelector('.menu-one'),
    }),
    BubbleMenu.configure({
      pluginKey: new PluginKey('bubbleMenuTwo'),
      element: document.querySelector('.menu-two'),
    }),
  ],
})
```
