React component
The ONLYOFFICE DocSpace React component integrates ONLYOFFICE DocSpace into React projects.
To work with this component, you need to have ONLYOFFICE DocSpace. If you are new to DocSpace, create an account.
Prerequisites
This procedure requires Node.js (and npm).
Creating the demo React application with ONLYOFFICE DocSpace
This procedure creates a basic React application and installs an ONLYOFFICE DocSpace in it.
Create a new React project named docspace-react-demo using the Create React App package:
npx create-react-app docspace-react-demo
Go to the newly created directory:
cd docspace-react-demo
Install ONLYOFFICE DocSpace React component from npm and save it to the package.json file with --save:
npm install --save @onlyoffice/docspace-react
Open the ./src/App.js file in the docspace-react-demo project and replace its contents with the following code:
import {DocSpace} from "@onlyoffice/docspace-react" import React, {useRef} from "react" function onAppReady(e) { console.log("ONLYOFFICE DocSpace App is ready!") } function onAppError(e) { console.log(e) } function onLoadComponentError(errorCode, errorDescription) { console.log(errorDescription) } export default function App() { return ( <pre> <DocSpace url="http://example-onlyoffice.com/" config={{ frameId: "onlyoffice-docspace", mode: "manager", width: "100%", height: "100%", events: { onAppReady: "onAppReady", onAppError: "onAppError", }, }} onLoadComponentError={onLoadComponentError} /> </pre> ) }
Replace the following line with your own data:
http://example-onlyoffice.com/
- replace with the URL of your server.
This JavaScript file will create the App component containing the ONLYOFFICE DocSpace configured with basic features.
Test the application using the Node.js development server:
To start the development server, navigate to the docspace-react-demo directory and run:
npm run start
To stop the development server, select on the command line or command prompt and press Ctrl+C.
Deploying the demo React application
The easiest way to deploy the application to a production environment is to install serve and create a static server:
Install the serve package globally:
npm install -g serve
Serve your static site on the 3000 port:
serve -s build
Another port can be adjusted using the -l or --listen flags:
serve -s build -l 4000
To serve the project folder, go to it and run the serve command:
cd docspace-react-demo serve
Now you can deploy the application to the created server:
Navigate to the docspace-react-demo directory and run:
npm run build
The build directory will be created with a production build of your app.
Copy the contents of the docspace-react-demo/build directory to the root directory of the web server (to the docspace-react-demo folder).
The application will be deployed on the web server (http://localhost:3000
by default).
