$generateNodesFromSerializedNodes
▸ $generateNodesFromSerializedNodes(serializedNodes): LexicalNode[]
This method takes an array of objects conforming to the BaseSeralizedNode interface and returns an Array containing instances of the corresponding LexicalNode classes registered on the editor. Normally, you'd get an Array of BaseSerialized nodes from $generateJSONFromSelectedNodes
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
serializedNodes | BaseSerializedNode[] | an Array of objects conforming to the BaseSerializedNode interface. |
Returns
an Array of Lexical Node objects.

Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |

| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
editor | LexicalEditor | LexicalEditor instance to get HTML content from |
selection | null | BaseSelection | The selection to use (default is $getSelection()) |

$getLexicalContent
▸ $getLexicalContent(editor, selection?): null | string
Returns the currently selected Lexical content as a JSON string, relying on the logic defined in the exportJSON methods on the LexicalNode classes. Note that this will not return the JSON content of the entire editor (unless all the content is included in the current selection).
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
editor | LexicalEditor | LexicalEditor instance to get the JSON content from |
selection | null | BaseSelection | The selection to use (default is $getSelection()) |
