Monaco is a powerful code editor created by Microsoft. It
provides code highlighting, auto completion and much more.

Configuration via the UI#

When you’ve installed Mailcoach as a standalone app or via the 1-click-installer you can choose this editor via the UI.

On the editor configuration you can customize the looks of the Monaco editor.

Manual installation#

When you’ve installed Mailcoach in an existing Laravel app, you must manually install this editor.

You can install the package via composer:

composer require spatie/laravel-mailcoach-monaco

Publish the assets#

You must publish the JavaScript and CSS assets using this command:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag mailcoach-monaco-assets --force

Every time the package is updated you’ll need to run that command. You can automate this by adding it to your post-update-cmd script in composer.json.

"scripts": {
    "post-update-cmd": [
        "@php artisan vendor:publish --tag mailcoach-monaco-assets --force"
    ]
}

Configuring Mailcoach#

Set the mailcoach.editor config value to \Spatie\MailcoachMonaco\MonacoEditor::class

Configuring the looks#

You can change some Monaco editor options by adding a monaco configuration key to your mailcoach.php config file.
