        this.updateContent = this.updateContent.bind(this);
        this.state = {
            content: 'content',
        }
    }

    updateContent(newContent) {
        this.setState({
            content: newContent
        })
    }
    
    onChange(evt){
      console.log("onChange fired with event info: ", evt);
      var newContent = evt.editor.getData();
      this.setState({
        content: newContent
      })
    }
    
    onBlur(evt){
      console.log("onBlur event called with event info: ", evt);
    }
    
    afterPaste(evt){
      console.log("afterPaste event called with event info: ", evt);
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <CKEditor 
              activeClass="p10" 
              content={this.state.content} 
              events={{
                "blur": this.onBlur,
                "afterPaste": this.afterPaste,
                "change": this.onChange
              }}
             />
        )
    }
}

The package also includes an in-built example under the /example folder. Run the sample application by cloning project and running npm start.
