``js
import * as Y from 'yjs'
import { WebsocketProvider } from 'y-websocket'
import { MonacoBinding } from 'y-monaco'
import * as monaco from 'monaco-editor'

const ydocument = new Y.Doc()
const provider = new WebsocketProvider(${location.protocol === 'http:' ? 'ws:' : 'wss:'}//localhost:1234, 'monaco', ydocument)
const type = ydocument.getText('monaco')

const editor = monaco.editor.create(document.getElementById('monaco-editor'), {
value: '', // MonacoBinding overwrites this value with the content of type
language: "javascript"
})

// Bind Yjs to the editor model
const monacoBinding = new MonacoBinding(type, editor.getModel(), new Set([editor]), provider.awareness)
`

Also look here for a working example.

API

`js
import { MonacoBinding } from 'y-monaco'

const binding = new MonacoBinding(type, editor.getModel(), new Set([editor]), provider.awareness)
`

constructor(Y.Text, monaco.editor.ITextModel, [Set<monaco.editor.IStandaloneCodeEditor>, [Awareness]])

If the editor(s) are specified, MonacoBinding adjusts selections when remote changes happen. Awareness is an implementation of the awareness protocol of y-protocols/awareness. If Awareness is specified, MonacoBinding renders remote selections.

destroy()

Unregister all event listeners. This is automatically called when the model is disposed.

Styling

You can use the following CSS classes to style remote cursor selections:

- yRemoteSelection
- yRemoteSelectionHead

See demo/index.html for example styles. Additionally, you can enable per-user styling (e.g.: different colors per user). The recommended approach for this is to listen to awareness.on("update", () => ...)); and inject custom styles for every available clientId. You can use the following classnames for this:

- yRemoteSelection-${clientId}
- yRemoteSelectionHead-${clientId

(where ${clientId}` is the Yjs clientId of the specific user).
