README

Minimum PHP Version License

A PHP 8.1+ library designed to parse and render Tiptap JSON outputs generated by Resend React Email Editor into valid, email-safe HTML. It translates modern editor structures into cross-client compatible HTML tables.

Version Compatibility

This package processes JSON from the Resend React Email Editor. Please ensure you use compatible versions:

react-email-php @react-email/editor PHP Version
1.x.x ^1.0.0 >= 8.1

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require gbielbarbosa/react-email-php

Usage

Converting JSON to Email-Safe HTML

To parse the JSON output from your front-end editor and render it as email-safe HTML, use the toHtml method. This method automatically handles layout components (Sections, Containers, Columns), mapping them to <table role="presentation"> tags to ensure Outlook, Apple Mail, and Gmail compatibility.

use ReactEmail\EmailParser;

$json = '{"type":"doc","content":[{"type":"body","content":[{"type":"container"}]}]}';

$parser = new EmailParser();
$html = $parser->toHtml($json);

echo $html;

The resulting $html will automatically include the proper HTML boilerplate (<!DOCTYPE>, <html>, <head>) if it's not present, and will dynamically inject any global styles defined in your editor's globalContent node.

Sanitizing JSON for Storage

Before saving the raw editor output to your database, you should sanitize it to prevent CSS/XSS injection payloads. The toJson method recursively traverses the JSON tree and strips invalid or malicious CSS values.

use ReactEmail\EmailParser;

// Raw JSON directly from the user's request
$rawJson = $_POST['editor_json'];

$parser = new EmailParser();
$safeJson = $parser->toJson($rawJson);

// $safeJson is now clean and ready to be stored in your database
