Advanced tools
Scalar API references with an integrated editor. The editor can be used in two ways:
You (optionally) provide an initial value and the editor will manage any changes internally.
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>API Reference Editor</title>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta
name="viewport"
content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
<!-- TODO: Update import script -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@scalar/api-reference-editor"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="scalar-api-reference" />
<script>
import { mountApiReferenceEditable } from '@scalar/api-reference-editor'
mountApiReferenceEditable('#scalar-api-reference')
</script>
</body>
</html>
To have additional control over when the references are updated you can provide a configuration.spec.content value and then handle the custom event that is emitted from the Editor component. A handler can be passed directly to the mountApiReferenceEditable function or you can attach an event listener for scalar-update to the mounted div.
If you wish to have external UI that updates the spec then updateSpecValue can be used to force update the content.

<script>
import { mountApiReferenceEditable } from '@scalar/api-reference-editor'
const externalState = {
value: ''
}
const { updateSpecValue} = mountApiReferenceEditable(
'#scalar-api-reference',
{ spec: {content: ''}},
(v: string) => {
console.log('The value is updated!')
updateSpecValue(v) // Updates the rendered spec
externalState.value = v
}
)
