Code editor (CodeEditor)

Enables users to write and edit code.

Properties

ace

The ace object.

Type: Any

Required: Yes

ariaDescribedby

Adds aria-describedby to the component. If you're using this component within a form field, don't set this property because the form field component automatically sets it. Use this property if the component isn't surrounded by a form field, or you want to override the value automatically set by the form field (for example, if you have two components within a single form field).

To use it correctly, define an ID for each element that you want to use as a description and set the property to a string of each ID separated by spaces (for example, "id1 id2 id3").

Type: String

Required: No

ariaLabelledby

Adds aria-labelledby to the component. If you're using this component within a form field, don't set this property because the form field component automatically sets it. Use this property if the component isn't surrounded by a form field, or you want to override the value automatically set by the form field (for example, if you have two components within a single form field).

To use it correctly, define an ID for the element you want to use as label and set the property to that ID.

Type: String

Required: No

className

Adds the specified classes to the root element of the component.

Type: String

Required: No

controlId

Specifies the ID of the native form element. You can use it to relate a label element's for attribute to this control. It defaults to an automatically generated ID that is provided by its parent form field component.

Required: No
