Point API

Point objects refer to a specific location in a text node in a Plite document. Its path refers to the location of the node in the tree, and its offset refers to distance into the node's string of text. Points may only refer to Text nodes.

Shape

interface Point {
  path: Path;
  offset: number;
  root?: string;
}Copy

interface Point {
  path: Path;
  offset: number;
  root?: string;
}Copy

When root is omitted, Plite resolves the point against the current editor or view root. The base editor and pure helpers fall back to the primary document; root-bound views fall back to their own root. Points in header, footer, content-root, or other extra roots carry that root key.

Static Methods

Retrieval Methods

PointApi.compare(point: Point, another: Point) => -1 | 0 | 1

Compare a point to another, returning an integer indicating whether the point was before, at or after the other.

Check Methods

PointApi.isAfter(point: Point, another: Point) => boolean

Check if a point is after another.

PointApi.isBefore(point: Point, another: Point) => boolean

Check if a point is before another.

PointApi.equals(point: Point, another: Point) => boolean

Check if a point is exactly equal to another.

PointApi.isPoint(value: unknown) => value is Point

Check if a value implements the Point interface.
