Well, I am developing my own Content Management System using ASP.NET MVC and for a page builder I've decided to use GrapeJS. Now, since this is new to me, I can't seem to find a way to save the pages I would have assembled using GrapeJS. I have used the gjs-preset-webpage
GrapeJS plugin and the only JavaScript for the assembling area I have is as shown below:
<script type="text/javascript">
var editor = grapesjs.init({
height: '100%',
showOffsets: 1,
noticeOnUnload: 0,
storageManager: { autoload: 0 },
container: '#gjs',
fromElement: true,
plugins: ['gjs-preset-webpage'],
pluginsOpts: {
'gjs-preset-webpage': {}
}
});
</script>
The HTML I've used is as follows as well:
<div id="gjs" style="height:0px; overflow:hidden">
<div class="panel">
<h1 class="welcome">Welcome to</h1>
<div class="big-title">
<svg class="logo" viewBox="0 0 100 100">
<path d="M40 5l-12.9 7.4 -12.9 7.4c-1.4 0.8-2.7 2.3-3.7 3.9 -0.9 1.6-1.5 3.5-1.5 5.1v14.9 14.9c0 1.7 0.6 3.5 1.5 5.1 0.9 1.6 2.2 3.1 3.7 3.9l12.9 7.4 12.9 7.4c1.4 0.8 3.3 1.2 5.2 1.2 1.9 0 3.8-0.4 5.2-1.2l12.9-7.4 12.9-7.4c1.4-0.8 2.7-2.2 3.7-3.9 0.9-1.6 1.5-3.5 1.5-5.1v-14.9 -12.7c0-4.6-3.8-6-6.8-4.2l-28 16.2" />

<div class="description">
This is a demo content from index.html. For the development, you shouldn't edit this file, instead you can
copy and rename it to _index.html, on next server start the new file will be served, and it will be ignored by git.

margin: 15px 0;
}
.description {
text-align: justify;
font-size: 1rem;
line-height: 1.5rem;
}
</style>
</div>
Now that I have embedded it into my project and can assembled pages using it, I can't seem to find how to save or where would the assembled page be to be saved. Can anyone help me?
You need a endpoint to allow grapes' storage manager to send your site current status information. I save the json and html just in case, but I think json is enough. Well then you setup your storage manager.
const editor = grapesjs.init({
storageManager:{
type: 'remote',
autosave: true, // Store data automatically
urlStore: 'YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL',
}
});
You will get a call to your endpoint every time something changes with the following parameterts:
gjs-assets
: Assets arraygjs-components
: Object with markup definition of your sitegjs-styles
: Object with styles definitiongjs-html
: your site HTMLgjs-css
: your CSSJust be sure to inject this definitions when initialising grapes as well:
const editor = grapesjs.init({
components: "YOUR_STORED_COMPONENTS_HERE",
style: "YOUR_STORED_CSS_HERE",
storageManager:{
type: 'remote',
autosave: true, // Store data automatically
urlStore: 'YOUR_ENDPOINT_URL',
}
});
