Describe the bug
How to reproduce the bug?
- Initialize Editor in headless mode
- Load the project data with just a basic text node
const _justTextData = {
assets: [],
styles: [],
pages: [
{
frames: [
{
component: {
type: 'wrapper',
stylable: [
'background',
'background-color',
'background-image',
'background-repeat',
'background-attachment',
'background-position',
'background-size',
],
attributes: { id: 'ipfo' },
components: [
{
type: 'text',
attributes: { id: 'i1je' },
components: [{ type: 'textnode', content: 'Hello world!' }],
},
],
},
},
],
id: '7bbomSfhvWF8QvfD',
},
],
};
</details>
Sample Code
try {
const editor = grapesjs.init({ headless: true });
editor.loadProjectData(_justTextData);
const html = editor.getHtml();
const css = editor.getCss();
console.log('html:', html);
console.log('css:', css);
} catch (e) {
console.log('error', e);
}
- Generate the HTML and CSS using
editor.getHtml()andeditor.getCss()respectively. - HTML and CSS should be generated successfully.
- Now Load the project with data containing text and image
const _textWithImageData = {
assets: [
{
type: 'image',
src: 'https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1658397966058-d1d252892754?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&ixid=MnwxMjA3fDB8MHxwaG90by1wYWdlfHx8fGVufDB8fHx8&auto=format&fit=crop&w=764&q=80',
unitDim: 'px',
height: 0,
width: 0,
},
],
styles: [
{
selectors: ['#ifvh'],
style: { color: 'black' },
mediaText: '(max-width: 900px)',
atRuleType: 'media',
},
],
pages: [
{
frames: [
{
component: {
type: 'wrapper',
stylable: [
'background',
'background-color',
'background-image',
'background-repeat',
'background-attachment',
'background-position',
'background-size',
],
attributes: { id: 'ih1q' },
components: [
{
type: 'text',
attributes: { id: 'i29t' },
components: [{ type: 'textnode', content: 'Hello World' }],
},
{
type: 'image',
attributes: {
id: 'ifvh',
src: 'https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1658397966058-d1d252892754?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&ixid=MnwxMjA3fDB8MHxwaG90by1wYWdlfHx8fGVufDB8fHx8&auto=format&fit=crop&w=764&q=80',
},
},
],
},
},
],
id: '9T0c4L1n3IPynJMc',
},
],
};
</details>
6. Generate HTML and CSS
What is the expected behavior? From what I understand, running on headless mode should not require window or document access, so HTML and CSS should in theory be generated in both cases.
What is the current behavior? HTML and CSS is generated in the first case but not in the second case and throws an error.

Same is the case when adding a video block, but only in this case the error is that document is not defined
