Im using the npm i react-native-pell-rich-editor
I can send the value from richtext to my database without a problem. But I cant display the value stored from my database back to richtext.
The editor have initialContentHTML options. It only displays when I set the state directly with plain text. I want to update the content from my database using richtext but it returns blank on editor.
<RichEditor
ref={this.state.richText}
onChange={this.richTextHandle}
initialContentHTML={this.state.description}
placeholder="Write your cool content here :)"
androidHardwareAccelerationDisabled={true}
initialHeight={250}
/>
<RichToolbar
editor={this.state.richText}
selectedIconTint="#873c1e"
iconTint="#312921"
actions={[
actions.insertImage,
actions.setBold,
actions.setItalic,
actions.insertBulletsList,
actions.insertOrderedList,
actions.insertLink,
actions.setStrikethrough,
actions.setUnderline,
]}
/>
I put a log before the return in render and the log returns blank a few times before returning the state.
console.log('here', this.state.description);
LOG here LOG here LOG here LOG here LOG here LOG here LOG here hello
