Props

Props	Type	Information
model-value	string | Text	Text value. (Not value)
basic	boolean	Use basicSetup.
minimal	boolean	Use miniSetup. If a basic prop is also specified, that setting will take precedence.
dark	boolean	Toggle Darkmode.
placeholder	string	Add placeholder text (or HTML DOM) when blank
wrap	boolean	Line text wrapping. see lineWrapping.
tab	boolean	Enables tab indentation.
allow-multiple-selections	boolean	Allow Multiple Selection. See allowMultipleSelections
tab-size	number	Configures the tab size to use in this state.
line-separator	string	Set line break (separetor) char. (Default is \n.)
theme	{ [selector: string]: StyleSpec }	Specify the theme. For example, if you use @codemirror/theme-one-dark, import oneDark and put it in this prop.
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.
lang	LanguageSupport	The language you want to have syntax highlighting. see https://codemirror.net/6/#languages
phrases	Record<string, string>	Specify here if you want to make the displayed character string multilingual. see https://codemirror.net/6/examples/translate/
extensions	Extension[]	Includes enhancements to extend CodeMirror.
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
gutter	boolean	Display 🔴 on the line where there was an error when linter was specified. It will not work if linter is not specified.
gutterConfig	Object	see https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#lint.lintGutter^config

⚠ Notice: lang and linter can also be set together in extensions. These are separated for compatibility with previous versions of CodeMirror settings and for typing props.

Example

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

<template>
  <code-mirror v-model="value" />
</template>

<script>
import { ref, defineComponent } from 'vue';

import CodeMirror from 'vue-codemirror6';

export default defineComponent({
  components: {
    CodeMirror,
  },
  setup() {
    const value = ref('Cozy lummox gives smart squid who asks for job pen.');

    return { value };
  },
});
</script>

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.

<template>
  <code-mirror :lang="lang" :linter="linter">
    <pre>
{
  "key": "value"
}</pre
    >
  </code-mirror>
</template>

<script>
import { ref, defineComponent } from 'vue';

import { json, jsonParseLinter } from '@codemirror/lang-json';

import CodeMirror from 'vue-codemirror6';

export default defineComponent({
  components: {
    CodeMirror,
  },
  setup() {
    const lang = json();
    const linter = jsonParseLinter();
    return { lang, linter };
  },
});
</script>

Full Example

  window.matchMedia('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)').matches
);

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',
          ],
          // ...
        },
      },
    },
  },
  // ...
};
