Snapshots

Snapshots are full state captures - handy for autosave/restore, “revert to here” buttons, or sending the document over the wire.

See Snapshot in the @plim/core API reference for the full surface.

import { Snapshot } from '@plim/core';


const snap = new Snapshot(editor);          // or new Snapshot(editor.getState())
const json = snap.serialize();              // store this anywhere


// later...
const restored = Snapshot.deserialize(json);
editor.restoreSnapshot(restored);

restoreSnapshot replaces state directly - it does not push a history entry, so undo/redo will not roll across the restore. Wrap restores in your own confirmation flow if that matters.
