  }

  render() {
    return (
      <Editor
        inline={['bold', 'italic', 'code', 'dropcap']}
        blocks={['h2', 'quote']}
        plugins={plugins}

        editorState={this.state.value}
        onChange={::this.onChange} />
    )
  }
}

You can pass your mention users to mentionUsers in the Editor, or pass to mentionUsersAsync a function that returns the list users for mentions functionality on change of the searchValue.

const mentionUsersAsync = function (searchValue, cb) {
  return new Promise(
    (resolve, reject) => {
      let url = `https://api.github.com/search/users?q=${searchValue}`
      fetch(url)
      .then( (response) => { return response.json() })
      .then((data) => {
        let users = data.items.map( (u, i) => { return { name: u.login, link: u.html_url, avatar: u.avatar_url } })
        resolve({ mentionUsers: users })
      })
    }
  )
}
