Mention

Honestly, the mention node is amazing. It adds support for @mentions, for example to ping users, and provides full control over the rendering.

Literally everything can be customized. You can pass a custom component for the rendering. All examples use .filter() to search through items, but feel free to send async queries to an API or add a more advanced library like fuse.js to your project.

Installation

npm install @tiptap/extension-mention

Dependencies

To place the popups correctly, we’re using tippy.js in all our examples. You are free to bring your own library, but if you’re fine with it, just install what we use:

npm install tippy.js

Settings

HTMLAttributes

Custom HTML attributes that should be added to the rendered HTML tag.

Mention.configure({
  HTMLAttributes: {
    class: 'my-custom-class',
  },
})

renderLabel

Define how a mention label should be rendered.

Mention.configure({
  renderLabel({ options, node }) {
    return `${options.suggestion.char}${node.attrs.label ?? node.attrs.id}`
  }
})
