## Installation

Install this library:

```bash
pnpm add react-drawio
# or
yarn add react-drawio
# or
npm i react-drawio
```

## Examples 
### Simple rendering
```tsx
import { DrawIoEmbed } from 'react-drawio';

function App() {
  return (
    <DrawIoEmbed />
  );
}
```

### Start with a few settings enabled
```tsx
import { DrawIoEmbed } from 'react-drawio';

function App() {
  return (
    <DrawIoEmbed urlParameters={{
      ui: 'kennedy',
      spin: true,
      libraries: true,
      saveAndExit: true
    }} />
  );
}
```

### Start with existing diagram
```tsx
import { DrawIoEmbed } from 'react-drawio';

function App() {
  return (
    <DrawIoEmbed xml="..." />
  );
}
```

### Export diagram programmatically
```tsx
import { DrawIoEmbed, DrawIoEmbedRef } from 'react-drawio';
import { useRef, useState } from 'react';

function App() {
  const [imgData, setImgData] = useState<string | null>(null);
  const drawioRef = useRef<DrawIoEmbedRef>(null);

  const export = () => {
    if (drawioRef.current) {
      drawioRef.current.exportDiagram({
        format: 'xmlsvg'
      });
    }
  };

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={export}>Export</button>

      <DrawIoEmbed 
        ref={drawioRef}
        onExport={(data) =>  setImgData(data.data)} 
      />
      
      {imgData && <img src={imgData} />}
    </>
  );
}
```
