# So how to use Editor.js
|
|
|
|
## Basics
|
|
|
|
Editor.js is a Block-Styled editor. Blocks is a structural units, of which the Entry is composed.
|
|
For example, `Paragraph`, `Heading`, `Image`, `Video`, `List` are Blocks. Each Block is represented by a Plugin.
|
|
We have [many](http://github.com/editor-js/) ready-to-use Plugins and the [simple API](tools.md) for creation new ones.
|
|
|
|
So how to use the Editor after [Installation](installation.md).
|
|
|
|
- Create new Blocks by Enter or with the Plus Button
|
|
- Press `TAB` or click on the Plus Button to view the Toolbox
|
|
- Press `TAB` again to leaf Toolbox and select a Block you need. Then press Enter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Select text fragment and apply a style or insert a link from the Inline Toolbar
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Use «three-dots» button on the right to open Block Settings. From here, you can move and delete a Block
|
|
or apply Tool's settings, if it provided. For example, set a Heading level or List style.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Shortcuts
|
|
|
|
We really appreciate shortcuts. So there are few presets.
|
|
|
|
Action | Shortcut | Restrictions
|
|
-- | -- | --
|
|
`TAB` | Show/leaf a Toolbox. | On empty block
|
|
`SHIFT+TAB` | Leaf back a Toolbox. | While Toolbox is opened
|
|
`ENTER` | Create a Block | While Toolbox is opened and some Tool is selected
|
|
`CMD+B` | Bold style | On selection
|
|
`CMD+I` | Italic style | On selection
|
|
`CMD+K` | Insert a link | On selection
|
|
|
|
Also we support shortcuts on the all type of Tools. Specify a shortcut with the Tools configuration. For example:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var editor = new EditorJS({
|
|
//...
|
|
tools: {
|
|
header: {
|
|
class: Header,
|
|
shortcut: 'CMD+SHIFT+H'
|
|
},
|
|
list: {
|
|
class: List,
|
|
shortcut: 'CMD+SHIFT+L'
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
//...
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Autofocus
|
|
|
|
If you want to focus Editor after page has been loaded, you can enable autofocus by passing `autofocus` to the initial config
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var editor = new EditorJS({
|
|
//...
|
|
autofocus: true
|
|
//...
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Holder
|
|
The `holder` property supports an id or a reference to dom element.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var editor = new EditorJS({
|
|
holder: document.querySelector('.editor'),
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
var editor2 = new EditorJS({
|
|
holder: 'codex-editor' // like document.getElementById('codex-editor')
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Placeholder
|
|
|
|
By default Editor\`s placeholder is empty.
|
|
|
|
You can pass your own placeholder via `placeholder` field:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var editor = new EditorJS({
|
|
//...
|
|
placeholder: 'My awesome placeholder'
|
|
//...
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are using your custom `Initial Block`, `placeholder` property is passed in `config` to your Tool constructor.
