Insert Link
This feature allows you to insert a hyperlink into the editor. The code sample demonstrates how to create a link node and insert it into the current selection.
import { $createLinkNode } from '@lexical/link';
const linkNode = $createLinkNode('https://example.com');
editor.update(() => {
const selection = $getSelection();
if ($isRangeSelection(selection)) {
selection.insertNodes([linkNode]);
}
});Edit Link
This feature allows you to edit an existing hyperlink in the editor. The code sample shows how to update the URL of a link node within the current selection.
import { $getSelection, $isRangeSelection } from 'lexical';
import { $isLinkNode } from '@lexical/link';
editor.update(() => {
const selection = $getSelection();
if ($isRangeSelection(selection)) {
const nodes = selection.getNodes();
nodes.forEach(node => {
if ($isLinkNode(node)) {
node.setURL('https://new-url.com');
}
});
}
});Remove Link
This feature allows you to remove a hyperlink from the editor. The code sample demonstrates how to replace a link node with its text content, effectively removing the link.
import { $getSelection, $isRangeSelection } from 'lexical';
import { $isLinkNode } from '@lexical/link';
editor.update(() => {
const selection = $getSelection();

const nodes = selection.getNodes();
nodes.forEach(node => {
if ($isLinkNode(node)) {
node.replace(node.getTextContent());
}
});
}
