• new QuoteNode(key?): QuoteNode

Parameters

Name	Type
key?	string

Returns

QuoteNode

Overrides

ElementNode.constructor

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:127

Methods

canMergeWhenEmpty

▸ canMergeWhenEmpty(): true

Determines whether this node, when empty, can merge with a first block of nodes being inserted.

This method is specifically called in RangeSelection.insertNodes to determine merging behavior during nodes insertion.

Returns

true

Example

// In a ListItemNode or QuoteNode implementation:
canMergeWhenEmpty(): true {
 return true;
}

Overrides

ElementNode.canMergeWhenEmpty

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:206

collapseAtStart

▸ collapseAtStart(): true

Returns

true

Overrides

ElementNode.collapseAtStart

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:198

---

createDOM

▸ createDOM(config): HTMLElement

Called during the reconciliation process to determine which nodes to insert into the DOM for this Lexical Node.

This method must return exactly one HTMLElement. Nested elements are not supported.

Do not attempt to update the Lexical EditorState during this phase of the update lifecyle.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
config	EditorConfig	allows access to things like the EditorTheme (to apply classes) during reconciliation.

Returns

HTMLElement

Overrides

ElementNode.createDOM

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:133

---

exportDOM

▸ exportDOM(editor): DOMExportOutput

Controls how the this node is serialized to HTML. This is important for copy and paste between Lexical and non-Lexical editors, or Lexical editors with different namespaces, in which case the primary transfer format is HTML. It's also important if you're serializing to HTML for any other reason via $generateHtmlFromNodes. You could also use this method to build your own HTML renderer.

Parameters

Name	Type
editor	LexicalEditor

Returns

DOMExportOutput

Overrides

ElementNode.exportDOM

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:151

---

exportJSON

▸ exportJSON(): SerializedElementNode

Controls how the this node is serialized to JSON. This is important for copy and paste between Lexical editors sharing the same namespace. It's also important if you're serializing to JSON for persistent storage somewhere. See Serialization & Deserialization.

Returns

SerializedElementNode

Overrides

ElementNode.exportJSON

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:181

---

insertNewAfter

▸ insertNewAfter(_, restoreSelection?): ParagraphNode

Parameters

Name	Type
_	RangeSelection
restoreSelection?	boolean

Returns

ParagraphNode

Overrides

ElementNode.insertNewAfter

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:190

---

updateDOM

▸ updateDOM(prevNode, dom): 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.

Returning "true" here will cause lexical to unmount and recreate the DOM node (by calling createDOM). You would need to do this if the element tag changes, for instance.

Parameters

Name	Type
prevNode	QuoteNode
dom	HTMLElement

Returns

boolean

Overrides

ElementNode.updateDOM

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:138

---

clone

▸ clone(node): QuoteNode

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
node	QuoteNode

Returns

QuoteNode

Overrides

ElementNode.clone

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:123

---

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

string

Overrides

ElementNode.getType

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:119

---

importDOM

▸ importDOM(): null | DOMConversionMap

Returns

null | DOMConversionMap

Overrides

ElementNode.importDOM

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:142

---

importJSON

▸ importJSON(serializedNode): QuoteNode

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

Name	Type
serializedNode	SerializedQuoteNode

Returns

QuoteNode

Overrides

ElementNode.importJSON

Defined in

packages/lexical-rich-text/src/index.ts:173
