Question: is possible to convert HTML to QUILL?

[oferRounds]

i.e., not quill delta, but actual quill string

Hi @oferRounds, Thanks for reaching out.

Are you able to provide an example of desired input and desired output?

I'm happy to look into this.

@joelcolucci I’m sorry for the delay on my side!

Maybe I’m missing something, QUILL is different than HTML, right? my backend expect to receive a QUILL for some feature we have, and my rich-text-editor creates an HTML. So I’m looking for a solution to covert the data before sending it to the backend.

Am I making sense here?

Thanks again for replying!

Hi @oferRounds ,

It sounds like you may be looking for one of the methods this package supports.

Example:

const { convertHtmlToDelta } = require('node-quill-converter');

const htmlString = '<p>hello, <strong>world</strong></p>';
const delta = convertHtmlToDelta(htmlString);

Note, I believe Quill, by default, provides the delta format which is JSON serializable. Your client could send the serialized delta down to the server, store it, and return it to the client when needed.
