## Install

with npm (recommended):

npm install bsoneditor

with bower:

bower install bsoneditor

#### More

There is a directive available for using BSONEditor in AngularJS:

[https://github.com/isonet/angular-bsoneditor](https://github.com/isonet/angular-bsoneditor)

Directive for Angular 5.x as well:

[https://github.com/mariohmol/ang-bsoneditor](https://github.com/mariohmol/ang-bsoneditor)

## Use

```html




// create the editor
var container = document.getElementById("bsoneditor");
var options = {};
var editor = new BSONEditor(container, options);

// set json
var json = {
"Array": [1, 2, 3],
"Boolean": true,
"Null": null,
"Number": 123,
"Object": {"a": "b", "c": "d"},
"String": "Hello World"
};
editor.set(json);

// get json
var json = editor.get();

```

## Build

The code of the JSON Editor is located in the folder `./src`. To build
bsoneditor:

- Install dependencies:

```
npm install
```

- Build JSON Editor:

```
npm run build
```

This will generate the files `./bsoneditor.js`, `./bsoneditor.css`, and
minified versions in the dist of the project.

- To automatically build when a source file has changed:

```
npm run watch
```

This will update `./bsoneditor.js` and `./bsoneditor.css` in the dist folder
on every change, but it will **NOT** update the minified versions as that's
an expensive operation.

## Custom builds

The source code of BSONEditor consists of CommonJS modules. BSONEditor can be bundled in a customized way using a module bundler like [browserify](http://browserify.org/) or [webpack](http://webpack.github.io/). First, install all dependencies of bsoneditor:

npm install

To create a custom bundle of the source code using browserify:

browserify ./index.js -o ./bsoneditor.custom.js -s BSONEditor

The Ace editor, used in mode `code`, accounts for about 75% of the total
size of the library. To exclude the Ace editor from the bundle:

browserify ./index.js -o ./bsoneditor.custom.js -s BSONEditor -x brace -x brace/mode/json -x brace/ext/searchbox

To minify the generated bundle, use [uglifyjs](https://github.com/mishoo/UglifyJS2):

uglifyjs ./bsoneditor.custom.js -o ./bsoneditor.custom.min.js -m -c
