ChangeLog

16/05/22 - Removed global tool varable. Switched to config variable for column tools (see Example) ~~22/05/22 - EditorJs must now be passed as instance through tool to child, to avoid duplicate editorjs installs~~ - Rolled Back

Known Bugs

• Pressing enter key inside a column, will exit the column
  • Can be solved (sort-of) by using @calumk/editorjs-paragraph-linebreakable
• Pressing tab key inside column will launch both column, and parent tools
• Copy/Pasting can cause duplication of data in the wrong place
• ~~z-index issues with toolboxes~~
• ~~Tools are hosted as global var~~
• ~~All Styling is currently only in the example.html~~
  • ~~Column styling should move to plugin~~
  • ~~Opinionaited styling (Borders, rounded corners, hover shaddow) will remain in example.html~~
• ~~SVG logo is not rendering correctly in new vertical menu~~

Note : Tools are passed to editorjs-columns using config.tools property

// first define the tools to be made avaliable in the columns
let column_tools = {
    header: Header,
    alert : Alert,
    paragraph : editorjsParagraphLinebreakable,
    delimiter : Delimiter
}

// next define the tools in the main block
// Warning - Dont just use main_tools - you will probably generate a circular reference 
let main_tools = {
// Load Official Tools
    header: Header,
    alert : Alert,
    paragraph : editorjsParagraphLinebreakable,
    delimiter : Delimiter,

    columns : {
        class : editorjsColumns,
        config : {
          tools : column_tools, // IMPORTANT! ref the column_tools
        }
      },
}


editor = new EditorJS({
    tools : main_tools,
});
