Methods
afterCloneFrom
▸ afterCloneFrom(prevNode
): void
Perform any state updates on the clone of prevNode that are not already
handled by the constructor call in the static clone method. If you have
state to update in your clone that is not handled directly by the
constructor, it is advisable to override this method but it is required
to include a call to super.afterCloneFrom(prevNode)
in your
implementation. This is only intended to be called by
$cloneWithProperties function or via a super call.
Parameters
Name | Type |
---|---|
prevNode | this |
Returns
void
Example
class ClassesTextNode extends TextNode {
// Not shown: static getType, static importJSON, exportJSON, createDOM, updateDOM
__classes = new Set<string>();
static clone(node: ClassesTextNode): ClassesTextNode {
// The inherited TextNode constructor is used here, so
// classes is not set by this method.
return new ClassesTextNode(node.__text, node.__key);
}
afterCloneFrom(node: this): void {
// This calls TextNode.afterCloneFrom and LexicalNode.afterCloneFrom
// for necessary state updates
super.afterCloneFrom(node);
this.__addClasses(node.__classes);
}
// This method is a private implementation detail, it is not
// suitable for the public API because it does not call getWritable
__addClasses(classNames: Iterable<string>): this {
for (const className of classNames) {
this.__classes.add(className);
}
return this;
}
addClass(...classNames: string[]): this {
return this.getWritable().__addClasses(classNames);
}
removeClass(...classNames: string[]): this {
const node = this.getWritable();
for (const className of classNames) {
this.__classes.delete(className);
}
return this;
}
getClasses(): Set<string> {
return this.getLatest().__classes;
}

): boolean
Called when a node changes and should update the DOM in whatever way is necessary to make it align with any changes that might have happened during the update.

updateFromJSON
▸ updateFromJSON(serializedNode
): this
Update this LexicalNode instance from serialized JSON. It's recommended to implement as much logic as possible in this method instead of the static importJSON method, so that the functionality can be inherited in subclasses.
The LexicalUpdateJSON utility type should be used to ignore any type, version, or children properties in the JSON so that the extended JSON from subclasses are acceptable parameters for the super call.
If overridden, this method must call super.
Parameters
Name | Type |
---|---|
serializedNode | LexicalUpdateJSON <SerializedElementNode <SerializedLexicalNode >> |
Returns
this
Example
class MyTextNode extends TextNode {
// ...
static importJSON(serializedNode: SerializedMyTextNode): MyTextNode {
return $createMyTextNode()
.updateFromJSON(serializedNode);
}

clone
▸ clone(_data
): LexicalNode
Clones this node, creating a new node with a different key and adding it to the EditorState (but not attaching it anywhere!). All nodes must implement this method.
Parameters
Name | Type |

_data | unknown |
Returns

getType
▸ getType(): string
Returns the string type of this node. Every node must implement this and it MUST BE UNIQUE amongst nodes registered on the editor.
Returns

importJSON
▸ importJSON(_serializedNode
): LexicalNode
Controls how the this node is deserialized from JSON. This is usually boilerplate, but provides an abstraction between the node implementation and serialized interface that can be important if you ever make breaking changes to a node schema (by adding or removing properties). See Serialization & Deserialization.
Parameters

transform
▸ transform(): null
| (node
: LexicalNode
) => void
Registers the returned function as a transform on the node during Editor initialization. Most such use cases should be addressed via the LexicalEditor.registerNodeTransform API.
Experimental - use at your own risk.
Returns
null

: LexicalNode
) => void
