setContent command
The setContent
command replaces the document with a new one. You can pass JSON or HTML, both work fine. It’s basically the same as setting the content
on initialization.
See also: insertContent, clearContent
Parameters
content: string
Pass a string (JSON or HTML) as content. The editor will only render what’s allowed according to the schema.
emitUpdate?: Boolean (false)
By default, it doesn’t trigger the update event. Passing true
doesn’t prevent triggering the update event.
parseOptions?: Record<string, any>
Options to configure the parsing can be passed during initialization and/or with setContent. Read more about parseOptions in the ProseMirror documentation.
