Development
For developers: integration with vendor/iframe-bridge
The plugin uses the @mirrorapp/iframe-bridge library for iframe management and ensuring proper interaction between the parent window and embedded content.
Key features of iframe-bridge:
- Automatic iframe resizing initialization
- Global message handler for viewport information requests
- Simple API:
iFrameSetup(iframeElement)
Usage:
The library is already included in the plugin and automatically initializes for all iframes created by the plugin. For additional customization or extended functionality, refer to the documentation in vendor/iframe-bridge/README.md.
Documentation:
Complete documentation for using iframe-bridge is available in:
vendor/iframe-bridge/README.md
Key documentation topics:
— Installation and setup
— Usage examples with various frameworks (React, Vanilla JS)
— API reference
— Security and limitations
— Module formats (ESM, CJS, UMD)
Important notes:
- Library works only on the client-side (browser)
