  id: "description",
  type: "textarea"
}

Return value

{
  value: string;
}

Example of value:

{
  value: "demo example value"
}

Usage

Label example

Adding a label on the left side of the control.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  label: "Description"
}

Class name example

Adding a CSS class to the control's DOM node.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  className: "myClass"
}

Icon example

Adding a "repeat" icon to the left of the control's label.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  icon: "nc-repeat"
}

Roles example

Show the control only to users with admin and designer privileges.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  roles: ["admin", "designer"]
}

Devices examples

It will be rendered on all devices. This value can be omitted since it defaults to "all".

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  devices: "all"
}

Rendering will occur only on desktop.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  devices: "desktop"
}

The display is limited to responsive modes, specifically tablet and mobile.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  devices: "responsive"
}

Disabled examples

Control will be disabled. Normally, here should be your dynamic condition.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  disabled: true
}

Control will be disabled when videoType variable will be "custom". getValue is a getter function that allows us to retrieve the value of controls by their id. "videoType" is the id of the "select" control below.

const getToolbarContols = ({ getValue }) => {
  const videoType = getValue("videoType");

  return [
    {
      id: "videoType",
      type: "select",
      choices: [
        { title: "Youtube", value: "youtube" },
        { title: "Custom", value: "custom" }
      ]
    },
    {
      id: "description",
      type: "textarea",
      disabled: videoType === "custom"
    }
  ];
};

Display examples

In this example, with display: "block", the label will be rendered on the first row and the control on the second.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  display: "block"
}

Placeholder example

Adding the placeholder text for the control.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  placeholder: "Start typing here..."
}

Helper examples

The helper object contains a content property with the value "help text", which will be displayed as additional guidance or information for the user.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  helper: {
    content: "help text"
  }
}

When the helper object contains a position property with the value "top-start", it indicates that the helper text will be displayed at the top left corner of the icon.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  helper: {
    content: "help text",
    position: "top-start"
  }
}

States examples

Allows the control to work in normal and hover states.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  states: ["normal", "hover"]
}

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  states: ["normal", "hover", "active"]
}

Config values for lines example

Specifies the number of lines for the textarea component. This determines the visible height of the textarea input field.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  config: {
    lines: 3
  }
}

Config size example

The size property is set to "medium", indicating that the input field will be rendered with medium dimensions.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  config: {
    size: "medium"
  }
}

Default value examples

CSS examples

Change the content of the .brz-text::after element with CSS using custom values from a textarea control.

{
  id: "description",
  type: "textarea",
  style: ({ value }) => {
    return {
      "{{WRAPPER}} .brz-text::after": {
        content: value.value
      }
    }
  }
}

Usage in HTML example

In the example below, we use the textarea output value to determine the content for the label in the Text element.

import { Brizy } from "@brizy/core";
import React, { JSX } from "react";

interface Props {
  description: string;
}

const Text = (props: Props): JSX.Element => {
  const { description } = props;

  return (
    <div className="brz-text">
      <span>{description}</span>
    </div>
  );
};

Brizy.registerComponent({
  id: "ThirdParty.Text",
  component: { editor: Text, view: Text },
  title: "My Text",
  category: "custom",
  options: (props) => {
    return [
      {
        selector: ".brz-text",
        toolbar: [
          {
            id: "toolbarCurrentElement",
            type: "popover",
            config: {
              icon: "nc-text",
              title: "Text"
            },
            devices: "desktop",
            options: [
              {
                id: "description",
                type: "textarea",
                devices: "desktop"
              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    ];
  }
});
