Ref objects store up-to-date references to a Point or Range object in the document.

PointRef

PointRef objects keep a specific point in a document synced over time as new operations are applied to the editor. You can access their property current at any time for the up-to-date Point value.

interface PointRef {
    current: Point | null
    affinity: 'forward' | 'backward' | null
    unref(): Point | null
}

Static methods

PointRef.transform(ref: PointRef, op: Operation)

Transform the point refs current value by an op.

RangeRef

RangeRef objects keep a specific range in a document synced over time as new operations are applied to the editor. You can access their property current at any time for the up-to-date Range value.

interface RangeRef {
    current: Range | null
    affinity: 'forward' | 'backward' | 'outward' | 'inward' | null
    unref(): Range | null
}

Static methods

RangeRef.transform(ref: RangeRef, op: Operation)

Transform the range refs current value by an op.
