Newsletter Builder with MJML components in GrapesJS

GrapesJS MJML

Requires GrapesJS v0.15.9 or higher

This plugin enables the usage of MJML components inside the GrapesJS environment. MJML components are rendered in real-time using the official v4 compiler (+ some mocks to make it run in the browser), therefore the result is, almost, the same as using the MJML Live Editor.

Demo

Supported MJML components: mj-mjml mj-head mj-body mj-wrapper mj-group mj-section mj-column mj-text mj-image mj-button mj-social mj-social-element mj-divider mj-spacer mj-style mj-font mj-hero mj-navbar mj-navbar-link mj-raw

Usage

<link href="path/to/grapes.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<script src="path/to/grapes.min.js"></script>
<script src="path/to/grapesjs-mjml.min.js"></script>

<div id="gjs">
  <mjml>
    <mj-body>
      <!-- Your MJML body here -->
      <mj-section>
        <mj-column>
          <mj-text>My Company</mj-text>
        </mj-column>
      </mj-section>
    </mj-body>
  </mjml>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
  const editor = grapesjs.init({
      fromElement: true,
      container: '#gjs',
      plugins: ['grapesjs-mjml'],
      pluginsOpts: {
        'grapesjs-mjml': {/* ...options */}
      }
  });
</script>

Or using ESM imports:

import 'grapesjs/dist/css/grapes.min.css'
import grapesJS from 'grapesjs'
import grapesJSMJML from 'grapesjs-mjml'

grapesJS.init({
   fromElement: true,
   container: '#gjs',
   plugins: [grapesJSMJML],
   pluginsOpts: {
      [grapesJSMJML]: {/* ...options */}
   },
});

i18n usage:

import 'grapesjs/dist/css/grapes.min.css'
import grapesJS from 'grapesjs'
import nl from 'grapesjs/locale/nl'
import grapesJSMJML from 'grapesjs-mjml'
import mjmlNL from 'grapesjs-mjml/locale/nl'

grapesJS.init({
   fromElement: true,
   container: '#gjs',
   i18n: {
      // locale: 'en', // default locale
      // detectLocale: true, // by default, the editor will detect the language
      // localeFallback: 'en', // default fallback
      messages: { nl: nl },
   },
   plugins: [grapesJSMJML],
   pluginsOpts: {
      [grapesJSMJML]: {
        // Optional options
        i18n: { nl: mjmlNL }
      }
   },
});

fonts usage:

import 'grapesjs/dist/css/grapes.min.css'
import grapesJS from 'grapesjs'
import grapesJSMJML from 'grapesjs-mjml'

const editor = grapesJS.init({
   fromElement: true,
   container: '#gjs',
   plugins: [grapesJSMJML],
   pluginsOpts: {
      [grapesJSMJML]: {
        // The font imports are included on HTML <head/> when fonts are used on the template
        fonts: {
          Montserrat: 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat',
          'Open Sans': 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans'
        }
      }
   },
});

// add custom fonts options on editor's font list
editor.on('load', () => {
  const styleManager = editor.StyleManager;
  const fontProperty = styleManager.getProperty('typography', 'font-family');

  const list = [];
  // empty list
  fontProperty.set('list', list);

  // custom list
  list.push(fontProperty.addOption({value: 'Montserrat, sans-serif', name: 'Montserrat'}));
  list.push(fontProperty.addOption({value: 'Open Sans, sans-serif', name: 'Open Sans'}));
  fontProperty.set('list', list);

  styleManager.render();
});
