title: PlateController | ||
description: API reference for PlateController component. | ||
--- | ||
|
||
**`PlateController`** is an optional provider component that facilitates accessing specific [Plate Stores](/docs/api/core/store) from outside their respective **`Plate`** components. | ||
|
||
## PlateController Store | ||
|
||
### State | ||
|
||
The PlateController Store contains the information required to fetch a Plate Store based on its **`id`**, and to determine which **`id`** is currently active. | ||
|
||
<APIAttributes> | ||
<APIItem name="activeId" type="PlateId | null"> | ||
|
||
The **`id`** of the most recently focused Plate editor. | ||
|
||
- **Default:** `null` | ||
|
||
</APIItem> | ||
<APIItem name="primaryEditorIds" type="PlateId[]"> | ||
|
||
The **`id`**'s of all primary Plate editors. By default, an editor is considered primary unless **`primary={false}`** was passed to its **`Plate`** component. | ||
|
||
- **Default:** `[]` | ||
|
||
</APIItem> | ||
<APIItem name="editorStores" type="Record<PlateId, JotaiStore | null>"> | ||
|
||
A map from the **`id`** of each mounted Plate editor to the **`JotaiStore`** corresponding to that editor's Plate Store. | ||
|
||
- **Default:** `{}` | ||
|
||
</APIItem> | ||
</APIAttributes> | ||
|
||
## Usage Patterns | ||
|
||
### Specific Editor by ID | ||
|
||
**`PlateController`** can be used to access the store of a specific editor using its **`id`**. Note that if a matching editor cannot be found, an immutable fallback editor will be returned instead. | ||
|
||
```tsx | ||
const App = withHoc(PlateController, () => { | ||
const mainEditor = useEditorRef('main'); | ||
|
||
useEffect(() => { | ||
if (!mainEditor.isFallback) { | ||
console.log('Editor mounted', mainEditor); | ||
} | ||
}, [mainEditor]); | ||
|
||
return ( | ||
<> | ||
<Plate id="main"> | ||
<PlateContent /> | ||
</Plate> | ||
|
||
<Plate id="secondary"> | ||
<PlateContent /> | ||
</Plate> | ||
</> | ||
); | ||
}); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Active Editor | ||
|
||
If hooks like **`useEditorRef`** are used inside a **`PlateController`** without an explicit **`id`**, they will resolve to the currently active editor. | ||
|
||
The active editor is determined as follows: | ||
|
||
1. If some editor has been focused, return the last such editor. | ||
2. If some editor is primary, return the first-mounted such editor. | ||
3. Otherwise, return an immutable fallback editor. | ||
|
||
```tsx | ||
const App = withHoc(PlateController, () => { | ||
const activeEditorId = usePlateId(); | ||
const isFallback = !useEditorMounted(); | ||
|
||
const message = isFallback | ||
? 'Please focus an editor' | ||
: `Active editor: ${activeEditorId}`; | ||
|
||
return ( | ||
<main> | ||
<p>{message}</p> | ||
|
||
<Plate id="main" primary={false}> | ||
<PlateContent /> | ||
</Plate> | ||
|
||
<Plate id="secondary" primary={false}> | ||
<PlateContent /> | ||
</Plate> | ||
</main> | ||
); | ||
}); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Dealing with Fallback Editors | ||
|
||
When a hook called inside a **`PlateController`** fails to locate a matching Plate Store, it will use Plate Store's default values. The default value for **`editor`** is **`createPlateFallbackEditor()`**. A fallback editor works like an empty Plate editor with no plugins, except it throws a runtime error if it receives a Slate operation (i.e. it is immutable and must not be used in transforms). | ||
|
||
The rationale behind this is to ensure that code that queries the editor (such as determining whether toolbar buttons are active) fails silently with a sensible default value, while code that transforms the editor (such as pressing a toolbar button) fails loudly with an error. | ||
|
||
There are two ways to determine if you're working with a fallback editor or a real editor: | ||
|
||
- **`useEditorMounted`** returns **`false`** if no mounted editor could be resolved | ||
- **`editor.isFallback`** is **`true`** for fallback editors | ||
|
||
When using hooks like **`useEditorRef`** inside a **`PlateController`**, you should code defensively to ensure that fallback editors are handled appropriately should they arise. For example, you can disable toolbar buttons if **`useEditorMounted`** returns **`false`**, or ignore events if **`editor.isFallback`** is **`true`**. | ||
|
||
```tsx | ||
const App = withHoc(PlateController, () => { | ||
const activeEditor = useEditorRef(); | ||
|
||
const toggleBold = () => { | ||
if (activeEditor.isFallback) return; | ||
toggleMark(activeEditor, { key: MARK_BOLD }); | ||
}; | ||
|
||
return ( | ||
<main> | ||
<button type="button" onClick={toggleBold}> | ||
Bold | ||
</button> | ||
|
||
<Plate id="main" primary={false}> | ||
<PlateContent /> | ||
</Plate> | ||
|
||
<Plate id="secondary" primary={false}> | ||
<PlateContent /> | ||
</Plate> | ||
</main> | ||
); | ||
}); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```tsx | ||
const App = withHoc(PlateController, () => { | ||
const activeEditor = useEditorRef(); | ||
const isFallback = !useEditorMounted(); | ||
|
||
const toggleBold = () => { | ||
toggleMark(activeEditor, { key: MARK_BOLD }); | ||
}; | ||
|
||
return ( | ||
<main> | ||
<button | ||
type="button" | ||
onClick={toggleBold} | ||
disabled={isFallback} | ||
> | ||
Bold | ||
</button> | ||
|
||
<Plate id="main" primary={false}> | ||
<PlateContent /> | ||
</Plate> | ||
|
||
<Plate id="secondary" primary={false}> | ||
<PlateContent /> | ||
</Plate> | ||
</main> | ||
); | ||
}); | ||
``` | ||
