setContent

The setContent command replaces the document with a new one. You can pass JSON or HTML, both work fine. It’s basically the same as setting the content on initialization.

See also: insertContent, clearContent

Parameters

content: string

Pass a string (JSON or HTML) as content. The editor will only render what’s allowed according to the schema.

emitUpdate?: Boolean (false)

By default, it doesn’t trigger the update event. Passing true doesn’t prevent triggering the update event.

parseOptions?: Record<string, any>

Options to configure the parsing can be passed during initialization and/or with setContent. Read more about parseOptions in the ProseMirror documentation.

Usage

// HTML
