Configuration

Customization

Publishing Views

Customize the component appearance by publishing the views:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=ld-code-block-views

Styling

The component uses Tailwind CSS classes by default. You can customize styles by:

Publishing views and modifying the Blade templates
Using the class attribute to add custom classes
Overriding default styles in your CSS

<x-ld-code-block class="custom-class" />

Events

The component dispatches Livewire events you can listen to:

Event	Payload	Description
`code-block:updated`	Component data	Fired when state changes
`code-block:initialized`	Initial data	Fired on component mount

// In your Livewire component
protected $listeners = ['code-block:updated' => 'handleUpdate'];

public function handleUpdate($data)
{
    // Handle the update
}

Alpine.js Integration

The component works seamlessly with Alpine.js:

<div x-data="{ ' }} selected: null {{ ' }">
    <x-ld-code-block x-model="selected" />
    <p x-text="selected"></p>
</div>
