# Editor
## Introduction
This class is a central building block of tiptap. It does most of the heavy lifting of creating a working [ProseMirror](https://ProseMirror.net/) editor such as creating the [`EditorView`](https://ProseMirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorView), setting the initial [`EditorState`](https://ProseMirror.net/docs/ref/#state.Editor_State) and so on.
## Methods
The editor instance will provide a bunch of public methods. Theyll help you to work with the editor.
Dont confuse methods with [commands](/api/commands). Commands are used to change the state of editor (content, selection, and so on) and only return `true` or `false`. Methods are regular functions and can return anything.
| Method | Parameters | Description |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `can()` | - | Check if a command or a command chain can be executed. Without executing it. |
| `chain()` | - | Create a command chain to call multiple commands at once. |
| `destroy()` | | Stops the editor instance and unbinds all events. |
| `getHTML()` | | Returns the current content as HTML. |
| `getJSON()` | | Returns the current content as JSON. |
| `getText()` | | Returns the current content as text. |
| `getAttributes()` | `name` Name of the node or mark | Get attributes of the currently selected node or mark. |
| `isActive()` | `name` Name of the node or mark<br>`attrs` Attributes of the node or mark | Returns if the currently selected node or mark is active. |
| `isEditable` | - | Returns whether the editor is editable. |
| `isEmpty` | - | Check if there is no content. |
| `getCharacterCount()` | - | Get the number of characters for the current document. |
| `registerPlugin()` | `plugin` A ProseMirror plugin<br>`handlePlugins` Control how to merge the plugin into the existing plugins. | Register a ProseMirror plugin. |
| `setOptions()` | `options` A list of options | Update editor options. |
| `unregisterPlugin()` | `name` The plugins name | Unregister a ProseMirror plugin. |
## Settings
### Element
The `element` specifies the HTML element the editor will be binded too. The following code will integrate tiptap with an element with the `.element` class:
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import StarterKit from '@tiptap/starter-kit'
new Editor({
element: document.querySelector('.element'),
extensions: [
StarterKit,
],
})
```
You can even initiate your editor before mounting it to an element. This is useful when your DOM is not yet available. Just leave out the `element`, well create one for you. Append it to your container at a later date like that:
```js
yourContainerElement.append(editor.options.element)
```
### Extensions
Its required to pass a list of extensions to the `extensions` property, even if you only want to allow paragraphs.
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import StarterKit from '@tiptap/starter-kit'
import Document from '@tiptap/extension-document'
import Paragraph from '@tiptap/extension-paragraph'
import Text from '@tiptap/extension-text'
import Highlight from '@tiptap/extension-highlight'
new Editor({
// Use the default extensions
extensions: [
StarterKit,
],
// … or use specific extensions
extensions: [
Document,
Paragraph,
Text,
],
// … or both
extensions: [
StarterKit,
Highlight,
],
})
```
### Content
With the `content` property you can provide the initial content for the editor. This can be HTML or JSON.
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import StarterKit from '@tiptap/starter-kit'
new Editor({
content: `<p>Example Text</p>`,
extensions: [
StarterKit,
],
})
```
### Editable
The `editable` property determines if users can write into the editor.
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import StarterKit from '@tiptap/starter-kit'
new Editor({
content: `<p>Example Text</p>`,
extensions: [
StarterKit,
],
editable: false,
})
```
### Autofocus
With `autofocus` you can force the cursor to jump in the editor on initialization.
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import StarterKit from '@tiptap/starter-kit'
new Editor({
extensions: [
StarterKit,
],
autofocus: false,
})
```
| Value | Description |
| --------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| `'start'` | Sets the focus to the beginning of the document. |
| `'end'` | Sets the focus to the end of the document. |
| `Number` | Sets the focus to a specific position in the document. |
| `true` | Enables autofocus. |
| `false` | Disables autofocus. |
| `null` | Disables autofocus. |
### Enable input rules
By default, tiptap enables all [input rules](/guide/custom-extensions/#input-rules). With `enableInputRules` you can disable that.
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import StarterKit from '@tiptap/starter-kit'
new Editor({
content: `<p>Example Text</p>`,
extensions: [
StarterKit,
],
enableInputRules: false,
})
```
### Enable paste rules
By default, tiptap enables all [paste rules](/guide/custom-extensions/#paste-rules). With `enablePasteRules` you can disable that.
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import StarterKit from '@tiptap/starter-kit'
new Editor({
content: `<p>Example Text</p>`,
extensions: [
StarterKit,
],
enablePasteRules: false,
})
```
### Inject CSS
By default, tiptap injects [a little bit of CSS](https://github.com/ueberdosis/tiptap/tree/main/packages/core/src/style.ts). With `injectCSS` you can disable that.
```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import StarterKit from '@tiptap/starter-kit'
new Editor({
extensions: [
StarterKit,
],
injectCSS: false,
})
```
### Editor props
For advanced use cases, you can pass `editorProps` which will be handled by [ProseMirror](https://prosemirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorProps). You can use it to override various editor events or change editor DOM element attributes. Here is an example:
```js
new Editor({
// Learn more: https://prosemirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorProps
editorProps: {
attributes: {
class: 'prose prose-sm sm:prose lg:prose-lg xl:prose-2xl mx-auto focus:outline-none',
},
transformPastedText(text) {
return text.toUpperCase();
}
}
});
```
You can use that to hook into event handlers and pass - for example - a custom paste handler, too.
### Parse options
Passed content is parsed by ProseMirror. To hook into the parsing, you can pass `parseOptions` which are then handled by [ProseMirror](https://prosemirror.net/docs/ref/#model.ParseOptions).
```js
new Editor({
// Learn more: https://prosemirror.net/docs/ref/#model.ParseOptions
parseOptions: {
preserveWhitespace: 'full',
},
})
```
