Basic Paragraph Node
This code demonstrates how to include the Paragraph extension in a Tiptap editor instance. It allows the editor to recognize and handle paragraph nodes.
import { Paragraph } from '@tiptap/extension-paragraph';
const editor = new Editor({
extensions: [
Paragraph,
],
});
Custom Paragraph Attributes
This code shows how to extend the Paragraph extension to add custom attributes. In this example, a custom attribute named 'customAttribute' is added to the paragraph node.
import { Paragraph } from '@tiptap/extension-paragraph';
const CustomParagraph = Paragraph.extend({
addAttributes() {
return {
customAttribute: {
default: null,
},
};
},
});
const editor = new Editor({
extensions: [
CustomParagraph,
],
});
Custom Paragraph Styling

const CustomParagraph = Paragraph.extend({
renderHTML({ HTMLAttributes }) {
return ['p', { ...HTMLAttributes, class: 'custom-paragraph' }, 0];
},
});

extensions: [
CustomParagraph,
