Props

Props Type Information
model-value string | Text Text value. (Not value)

tab-size number Configures the tab size to use in this state.
line-separator string Set line break (separetor) char. (Default is \n.)

readonly boolean Makes the cursor visible or you can drag the text but not edit the value.
disabled boolean This is the reversed value of the CodeMirror editable. Similar to readonly, but setting this value to true disables dragging.

linter LintSource Set Linter. Enter a linter (eg esLint([arbitrary rule]) function for @codemirror/lang-javascript, jsonParseLinter()function for@codemirror/json). See the sources for various language libraries for more information.
linterConfig Object see https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#lint.linter^config
forceLinting boolean see https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#lint.forceLinting

Example

Mark up as follows to make it work at a minimum.

Example using Slots

The contents of the slot will overwrite the existing v-model. For this reason, it is recommended to use it when simply displaying with a readonly prop without using v-model.

Also, insert a <pre> tag to prevent the text in the slot from being automatically formatted.

{
  "key": "value"
}

Full Example

Recommendations

Since CodeMirror has a relatively large capacity, when using vite, it is recommended to set it to output as a separate file using the manualChunks option at build time as shown below.

const config: UserConfig = { // ... build: { rollupOptions: { output: { manualChunks: { // ... codemirror: [ // Split CodeMirror code. 'vue-codemirror6', 'codemirror', '@codemirror/autocomplete', '@codemirror/commands', '@codemirror/language', '@codemirror/lint', '@codemirror/search', '@codemirror/state', '@codemirror/view', ], 'codemirror-lang': [ // Add the following as needed. '@codemirror/lang-html', '@codemirror/lang-javascript', '@codemirror/lang-markdown', ], // ... }, }, }, }, // ... };
