API

Deepword could be used as middleware for express. For this purpuse API could be used.

Server

deepword(options)

Middleware of deepword. Options could be omitted.

import deepword from 'deepword';
import express from 'express';

const app = express();

app.use(deepword({
    root: '/', // default
    diff: true, // default
    zip: true, // default
    dropbox: false, // optional
    dropboxToken: 'token', // optional
}));

app.listen(31_337);

deepword.listen(socket)

Could be used with socket.io to handle editor events with.

import {Server} from 'socket.io';
const socket = new Server(server);

deepword.listen(socket, {
    prefixSocket: '/deepword', // optional
    auth: (accept, reject) => (username, password) => {
        // optional
        accept();
    },
});

Client

Deepword uses Monaco on client side, so API is similar. All you need is put minimal html, css, and js into your page.

Minimal html:

<div class="edit" data-name="js-edit"></div>
<script src="/deepword/deepword.js"></script>

Minimal css:

html, body, .edit {
    height: 100%;
    width: 100%;
}

body {
    margin: 0;
}

.edit {
    overflow: hidden;
}

Minimal js:

deepword('[data-name="js-edit"]', (editor) => {
    editor.setValue('Hello deepword!');
});

For more information you could always look into html and bin directory.
