Default config

[](#default-config)

`Markdown` field uses the most common settings such as plugins, menubar and toolbar by default

To change the default settings, you need to publish the configuration file:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="moonshine-easymde-config"
```

You can also add additional options to the configuration file that will apply to all `Markdown` fields

```
'previewClass' => ['prose', 'dark:prose-invert'],
'forceSync' => true,
'spellChecker' => false,
'status' => false,
'toolbar' => [
    'bold', 'italic', 'strikethrough', 'code', 'quote', 'horizontal-rule', '|', 'heading-1',
    'heading-2', 'heading-3', '|', 'table', 'unordered-list', 'ordered-list', '|', 'link', 'image', '|',
    'preview', 'side-by-side', 'fullscreen', '|', 'guide',
],
```

Toolbar
-------

[](#toolbar)

The `toolbar()` method allows you to completely override toolbar for a field

```
toolbar(string|bool|array $toolbar)
```

```
Markdown::make('Description')
    ->toolbar(['bold', 'italic', 'strikethrough', 'code', 'quote', 'horizontal-rule'])
```

Options
-------

[](#options)

The `addOption()` method allows you to add additional options for a field

```
addOption(string $name, string|int|float|bool|array $value)
```

```
Markdown::make('Description')
    ->addOption('toolbar', ['bold', 'italic', 'strikethrough', 'code', 'quote', 'horizontal-rule'])
```
