Build the distribution files

# At the working directory `licit`
npm run build:dist

Use Licit as a component

For using licit in your project you should follow these steps:

To build the licit pack, run the below commands:

# At the working directory `licit`
npm pack

Now you will find a modusoperandi-licit-0.0.2.tgz file in the licit directory.

Add this .tgz file to your own angular project and install it using the below command:

# At your angular working directory
npm install ./modusoperandi-licit-0.0.2.tgz

After this you can import licit component in your application like:

import { Licit } from '@modusoperandi/licit';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';

// To create multiple instances:
ReactDOM.render(<Licit docID={1}/>, document.getElementById('root'));
ReactDOM.render(<Licit docID={1}/>, document.getElementById('root2'));
ReactDOM.render(<Licit docID={2}/>, document.getElementById('root3'));
ReactDOM.render(<Licit docID={3}/>, document.getElementById('root4'));

// OR
ReactDOM.render(React.createElement(Licit, {docID:1}), document.getElementById("root"));
ReactDOM.render(React.createElement(Licit, {docID:2}), document.getElementById("root2"));

By default, the collaboration and the prosemirror dev tool are disabled for the editor. set docID to "0" for disable the collaboration. User can enable the same using the below configuration:

 ReactDOM.render(React.createElement(Licit, {docID: 1, debug: true}), document.getElementById('root'));

To use Custom run time in your component :

 Use the below imports for access the image and style API

import type {ImageLike, StyleProps} from '@modusoperandi/licit';
import {POST, GET, DELETE, PATCH} from '@modusoperandi/licit';
import {setStyles} from '@modusoperandi/licit';

Please refer licit\client\index.js for getting more detailed idea on passing properties and fires events.

To set data to editor:

function setData() { const props = {}; Object.assign(props, this.props); // here the this.props is the ref input from the onReadyCB(ref) (Please refer licit\client\index.js for onReadyCB(ref) method) props.data = { "type":"doc","attrs":{"layout":null,"padding":null,"width":null,"counterFlags":null},"content":[{"type":"paragraph","attrs":{"align":null,"color":null,"id":null,"indent":null,"lineSpacing":null,"paddingBottom":null,"paddingTop":null},"content":[{"type":"text","text":"Hello World!!!"}]}]}; this.setProps(props); }

To load the styles: Either in angular.json, add "styles": [ "node_modules/licit/dist/styles.css", ] OR in the default global CSS file src\styles.scss, add @import "~licit/dist/styles.css"

MathQuill requires jQuery 1.5.2+ to be loaded first: In angular.json, add "scripts": [ "node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js", ]

Run npm start to see the licit editor inside the angular application.

Note: there is a nice Angular test app designed to test the component interface of licit here: https://github.com/melgish/licit-playground - which also allows you to load and save the JSON file.

Use it for your own project

For using licit in your project you should follow these steps:

For example (in an Angular app):

# At the working directory `licit`
npm run build:licit

Now you will find a new directory (bin) with licit.bundle.js file.

Add this bin folder to your own project and also include the licit.bundle.js file in the scripts array of angular.json file as follows:

"scripts": [ "src/bin/licit.bundle.js" ]

To start the collaboration server, follow the steps below:

Run the Collaborative server in licit/servers directory using following command:

node run_licit_collab_server.bundle.js PORT='<yourPort>' IP='<yourIP/Hostname>'

NOTE: In case if you are hosting collab server in a different location or machine then you need to change the host name and port number in licit\src\client\CollabConnector.js accordingly.

const url = <yourLocationProtocol> + '\/\/' +
<yourIP/Hostname>+ ':<yourPort>/docs/' +
docID;

Run ng serve to see the collaborative licit editor inside the angular application.

To deploy LICIT in a server:

# At the working directory `licit`
npm install
npm run build:licit

Now you will find a bin directory, copy the files from bin to the server to run the Licit as a standalone application.

You can install licit using the commit hash to include in your own package.json.

For install the latest commit on master branch:

npm install --save "MO-Movia/licit"

For install a specific commit:

npm install --save "MO-Movia/licit#3de185eaccdfd745bc567d5358cf3281472d8df8"
