   • Review example implementation for guidance

   • To enable edit functionality, please review the example below for passing react-json-view props

Pass react-json-view props

• Any props in react-json-view is supported by passing as an object to reactJsonViewProps

  • Lightning Web Component example:

    • LWC html file

      <c-json-react-container
        json-text="{jsontext}"
        react-json-view-props="{reactJsonViewProps}"
      ></c-json-react-container>

    • LWC js file

      reactJsonViewProps = {
        name: false,
        displayDataTypes: false,
        onEdit: edit => {
          this.editJson(edit);
        },
        onAdd: edit => {
          this.editJson(edit);
        },
        onDelete: edit => {
          this.editJson(edit);
        }
      };
      
      editJson(edit) {
        const fields = {};
        fields[JSON_TEST_FIELD.fieldApiName] = JSON.stringify(edit.updated_src);
        fields[ID_FIELD.fieldApiName] = this.recordId;
      
        const recordInput = { fields };
      
        updateRecord(recordInput)
          .then(() => {})
          .catch(error => {
            console.log(error);
          });
        this.jsontext = JSON.stringify(edit.updated_src);
      }

        <div id="container"> </div>
      
        <script>
          $Lightning.use("c:JsonViewApp", function () {
          $Lightning.createComponent( "c:jsonViewerExample", { recordId:
          '{!Account.Id}' }, "container", function (cmp) {
          console.log('component created'); }); });
