Quick answerby artf❀ 1

Yes @kuhelbeher, now the wrapper is created post plugins, so you can entirely extend it as any other component

Question

First of all, congrats @artf for this amazing project πŸ’―

I am currently working on a project and I wanted to ask if I can edit the wrapper (body) like I edit other components inside it. For example I would like to edit the padding of the wrapper as I do with the background-color.

I've had a look over the configs but couldn't find anything helpful.

Thank you!

LE: I have found a way. I am overwritting the stylable array from getWrapper() but I'm not 100% sure this is the correct way. Can you confirm this?

Thanks for reporting this, @RaresVlaiduc.

Great question about Wrapper styling. The recommended approach with Components is to use the event-driven API.

Start here:

  1. Check the GrapesJS documentation for your specific module
  2. Look for the on() event listener method
  3. Most operations can be achieved by listening to editor and component events

Common patterns:

// Listen for changes
editor.on('change', () => console.log('something changed'));

// Component lifecycle
editor.on('component:mount', (c) => console.log('component ready', c));
editor.on('component:update', (c) => console.log('component updated', c));

If you're still stuck:

  • Share a minimal CodeSandbox reproduction
  • Include what you've already tried
  • Mention your GrapesJS version
