HandlePastedText

Function to handle pasted text in draft-js. This seems to be one of the key features of draftail. I didn't want the other features/heavy customization of draftail.

If your requirements are basic like changing a few styles or creating tags/entities out of pasted text, it should work out of the box. You can provide your custom function for styling or entity creation for advanced uses.

Installation

npm install handlepastedtext --save

ES6 import

import HandlePastedText from 'handlepastedtext'

Requirements

Needs draft-js

Typical usage

    <Editor
        ...
        handlePastedText={(pastedText, html, edSt)=>HandlePastedText(pastedText, html, edSt, this.onChange)}
        ...
    />

this.onChange is the function that usually handles change in editorState. HandlePastedText calls that function with the newEditorState
