A React renderer for Storyblok rich text content
npm install storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer

Renders Storyblok rich text content to React elements.
Storyblok provides a renderer for its rich text field type via theirstoryblok-js-client package. This renderer outputs HTML markup,
which can be used in React via the dangerouslySetInnerHTML property:
``js
import StoryblokClient from 'storyblok-js-client';
const Storyblok = new StoryblokClient({ accessToken: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });
function RichText({ document }) {
const html = Storyblok.richTextResolver.render(document);
return
Apart from being a bit awkward (
dangerouslySetInnerHTML is, as the name
implies, dangerous), this is problematic because it is not possible to map
rich text elements to React components, e.g.:1. Embedded Storyblok components
2. Links that you might want to pass through your app's router
Instead of HTML markup,
storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer outputs
React elements, and provides options to map any Storyblok rich text
element to custom React components.Installation
`
npm install storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer
`Usage
`js
import { render } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';function RichText({ document }) {
// document is the rich text object you receive from Storyblok,
// in the form { type: "doc", content: [ ... ] }
return
{render(document)};
}
`Advanced usage
To map rich text elements to custom React components, resolvers can be passed
via the optional second argument of the
render function:`js
render(document, {
markResolvers: { ... }, // inline elements
nodeResolvers: { ... }, // block elements
blokResolvers: { ... }, // embedded components
defaultBlokResolver: (name, props) => ( ... ),
defaultStringResolver: (str) => ( ... ),
textResolver: (text) => ( ... ),
});
`Sensible default resolvers for marks and nodes are provided
out of the box. You only have to provide custom ones if you want to
override the default behavior.
If you use embedded Storyblok components, you have to provide
blok resolvers to map them to your React components though,
otherwise they are ignored. You can also provide a
default blok resolver if you need a catch-all
solution.

Mark resolvers are used to map inline elements.
Use the
markResolvers option to add mark resolvers.Supported element types and their resolver function signatures are:
- MARK_BOLD —
(children) => { ... }
- MARK_ITALIC — (children) => { ... }
- MARK_STRIKE — (children) => { ... }
- MARK_UNDERLINE — (children) => { ... }
- MARK_CODE — (children) => { ... }
- MARK_STYLED — (children, { class }) => { ... }
- MARK_LINK — (children, { linktype, href, target, anchor, uuid, custom }) => { ... }
- MARK_SUBSCRIPT — (children) => { ... }
- MARK_SUPERSCRIPT — (children) => { ... }
- MARK_HIGHLIGHT — (children, { color }) => { ... }
- MARK_TEXT_STYLE — (children, { color }) => { ... }
- MARK_ANCHOR — (children, { id }) => { ... }#### Example: Map bold elements to
`js
import { render, MARK_BOLD } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';render(document, {
markResolvers: {
[MARK_BOLD]: (children) => {children}
}
});
`#### Example: Map link elements to Next.js'
component`js
import Link from 'next/link';
import { render, MARK_LINK } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';render(document, {
markResolvers: {
[MARK_LINK]: (children, props) => {
const { linktype, href, target } = props;
if (linktype === 'email') {
// Email links: add
mailto: scheme and map to
return mailto:${href}}>{children};
}
if (href.match(/^(https?:)?\/\//)) {
// External links: map to
return {children};
}
// Internal links: map to
return {children};
}
}
});

Node resolvers are used to map block elements.
Use the
nodeResolvers option to add node resolvers.Supported element types and their resolver function signatures are:
- NODE_HEADING —
(children, { level }) => { ... }
- NODE_CODEBLOCK — (children, { class }) => { ... }
- NODE_IMAGE — (children, { src, alt, title }) => { ... }
- NODE_EMOJI — (children, { name, emoji, fallbackImage }) => { ... }
- NODE_PARAGRAPH — (children) => { ... }
- NODE_QUOTE — (children) => { ... }
- NODE_OL — (children) => { ... }
- NODE_UL — (children) => { ... }
- NODE_LI — (children) => { ... }
- NODE_HR — () => { ... }
- NODE_BR — () => { ... }
- NODE_TABLE — (children) => { ... }
- NODE_TABLE_ROW — (children) => { ... }
- NODE_TABLE_CELL — (children, { colspan, rowspan, backgroundColor, colwidth }) => { ... }
- NODE_TABLE_HEADER — (children, { colspan, rowspan, backgroundColor, colwidth }) => { ... }#### Example: Map image elements to custom React components
`js
import MyImage from 'components/MyImage';
import { render, NODE_IMAGE } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';render(document, {
nodeResolvers: {
[NODE_IMAGE]: (children, props) =>
}
});
`$3
Blok resolvers are used to map embedded Storyblok components.
Use the
blokResolvers option to add blok resolvers. Keys are the Storyblok component's "technical" name. The function signature is always (props) => { ... }, where props is an object that contains all the component's fields, as well as its _uid and _editable values.#### Example: Map blok elements to custom React components
`js
import MyComponent from 'components/MyComponent';
import { render } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';render(document, {
blokResolvers: {
['my_component']: (props) =>
}
});
`$3
Use the
defaultBlokResolver option to add a default blok resolver. The function signature is (name, props) => { ... }, where name is the Storyblok component's "technical" name and props is an object that contains all the component's fields, as well as its _uid and _editable values.#### Example:
`js
import { render } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';render(document, {
defaultBlokResolver: (name, props) => (
Missing blok resolver for blok type "{name}".
{JSON.stringify(props, undefined, 2)}
)
});
`Alternatively, you can use
StoryblokComponent from @storyblok/react.#### Example:
`js
import { render } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';
import { StoryblokComponent } from "@storyblok/react";render(document, {
defaultBlokResolver: (name, props) => {
const blok = { ...props, component: name };
return ;
}
});
`$3
Storyblok might return a simple string instead of a document object for rich text fields with trivial content. By default, the render function returns this string as-is. Use the
defaultStringResolver option to customize this behavior. The function signature is (str) => { ... }.#### Example:
`js
import { render } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';render(document, {
defaultStringResolver: (str) =>
{str}
});
`$3
Use the
textResolver option to add a resolver for plain text nodes. The function signature is (text) => { ... }.#### Example:
`js
import { render } from 'storyblok-rich-text-react-renderer';
import entities from 'entities';render(document, {
textResolver: (text) => entities.decodeHTML(text)
});
