# React Trix 0.10.2

React wrapper around [Trix](https://github.com/basecamp/trix) editor from Basecamp. With additional features that I
needed when I was CTO at Roadmap when sending emails and collaborating with comments.

## Getting started

### Install via npm

```bash
npm install react-trix --save
```

Trix will be included as dependency. You should already have [React](https://facebook.github.io/react) installed.

### Usage

Make sure you have the latest Trix JavaScript and optionally their CSS on pages where you are using react-trix.

#### Classic script tag

```html

```

#### Or via npm

```bash
npm i trix
```

```jsx
import "trix/dist/trix";
```

If you're using npm version with SSR make sure to import trix on page level.

```jsx
import * as React from "react";
import { TrixEditor } from "react-trix";

export class Test extends React.Component {
handleEditorReady(editor) {
// this is a reference back to the editor if you want to
// do editing programatically
editor.insertString("editor is ready");
}
handleChange(html, text) {
// html is the new html content
// text is the new text content
}
render() {
return (

);
}
}
```

### Properties

Those are the optional properties you can use on the ``.

**New in v0.7.0**

The default name for the file upload is `file`. You may use the `fileParamName`
to change its name, for instance `blob` to work with Ruby on Rails.

```jsx
let mergeTags = [{
trigger: "@",
tags: [
{name: "Dominic St-Pierre", tag: "@dominic"},
{name: "John Doe", tag: "@john"}
]
}, {
trigger: "{",
tags: [
{name: "First name", tag: "{{ .FirstName }}"},
{name: "Last name", tag: "{{ .LastName }}"}
]
}]

```

### Merge tags

You give a trigger character, for example "@" and when the user type this character a small popup suggestions
will be displayed where user can click and the `tag` will be added.

You may customize the suggestion box via the CSS class `react-trix-suggestions` like this:

```css
.react-trix-suggestions {
/* for the container */
}

.react-trix-suggestions a {
/* for each suggestion */
}
```

## Running the tests

Still having some issues testing Trix with enzyme/jsdom.
