The error you're encountering suggests that the vim-monaco
package is trying to access a property (SelectionDirection
) that is not defined or available at the time of access. This could be due to a few reasons, such as an incomplete vim-monaco
setup or a missing dependency.
Here are some steps to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:
Ensure that you have the correct versions of monaco-editor
and vim-monaco
installed.
yarn add monaco-editor vim-monaco
Instead of directly initializing VimMode
, use the initVimMode
method from vim-monaco
.
Make sure your Vite configuration supports loading these modules correctly. You might need to adjust vite.config.js
.
Here is an updated version of your MonacoEditor.tsx
:
// src/components/MonacoEditor.tsx
import { useEffect, useRef, forwardRef, useImperativeHandle } from 'react';
import * as monaco from 'monaco-editor';
import { initVimMode } from 'vim-monaco';
import './MonacoEditor.css'; // Import the CSS file
interface MonacoEditorProps {
initialValue: string;
language: 'javascript' | 'typescript' | 'markdown';
onChange?: (value: string) => void;
onSave?: (value: string) => void;
height?: string;
}
const MonacoEditor = forwardRef<any, MonacoEditorProps>(({ initialValue, language, onChange, onSave, height = '400px' }, ref) => {
const editorRef = useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null);
const monacoEditorRef = useRef<monaco.editor.IStandaloneCodeEditor | null>(null);
const vimModeRef = useRef<any | null>(null);
useImperativeHandle(ref, () => ({
focus: () => {
monacoEditorRef.current?.focus();
},
getValue: () => {
return monacoEditorRef.current?.getValue();
},
}));
useEffect(() => {
if (editorRef.current) {
const editor = monaco.editor.create(editorRef.current, {
value: initialValue,
language: language,
theme: 'vs-dark',
automaticLayout: true,
});
monacoEditorRef.current = editor;
// Initialize Vim mode
const statusBarContainer = document.createElement('div');
vimModeRef.current = initVimMode(editor, statusBarContainer);
editor.onDidChangeModelContent(() => {
if (onChange) {
onChange(editor.getValue());
}
});
// Define Vim commands
const defineVimCommands = () => {
const Vim = (window as any).Vim;
if (Vim) {
Vim.defineEx('w', '', () => {
if (onSave) {
onSave(editor.getValue());
}
});
Vim.defineEx('q', '', () => {
if (editorRef.current) {
editorRef.current.style.display = 'none'; // Hide the editor
}
});
Vim.defineEx('wq', '', () => {
if (onSave) {
onSave(editor.getValue());
}
if (editorRef.current) {
editorRef.current.style.display = 'none'; // Hide the editor
}
});
} else {
console.error('Vim object is not available on the window');
}
};
// Delay initialization to ensure the editor is fully loaded
setTimeout(defineVimCommands, 100);
return () => {
if (vimModeRef.current) {
vimModeRef.current.dispose();
}
editor.dispose();
};
}
}, [initialValue, language, onChange, onSave]);
return <div ref={editorRef} className="monaco-editor-container" style={{ height }} />;
});
export default MonacoEditor;
Ensure your Vite configuration can handle the dependencies correctly. Sometimes, you might need to adjust the Vite configuration to handle certain libraries.
Add some debugging logs to understand the state of the editor and Vim mode when the error occurs.
useEffect(() => {
if (editorRef.current) {
const editor = monaco.editor.create(editorRef.current, {
value: initialValue,
language: language,
theme: 'vs-dark',
automaticLayout: true,
});
monacoEditorRef.current = editor;
console.log('Monaco Editor initialized');
const statusBarContainer = document.createElement('div');
vimModeRef.current = initVimMode(editor, statusBarContainer);

To use your forked version of the `vim-monaco` library in your project, you can follow these steps:
### 1. Publish Your Forked Repository
If you want to publish your forked repository to npm under a different name, follow these steps, otherwise, you can use it directly via GitHub.
#### Option 1: Use GitHub Repository Directly
Update your `package.json` to point to your forked GitHub repository.
```json
{
"dependencies": {
"vim-monaco": "github:your-github-username/vim-monaco#branch-name"
}
}
If you want to use a local path for development purposes, you can use the file:
protocol.
- Clone your forked repository to your local machine.
- Update your
package.json
to use the local path.
{
"dependencies": {
"vim-monaco": "file:../path-to-your-local-vim-monaco"
}
}
Make the necessary changes to adapter.ts
in your forked repository.
Run yarn install
to ensure that your project uses the local version of vim-monaco
.
Ensure that the changes you made in adapter.ts
are being reflected.
Here's an example of how your package.json
might look after pointing to your local fork:
{
"name": "your-project",
"version": "1.0.0",
"private": true,
"dependencies": {
"react": "^17.0.2",
"react-dom": "^17.0.2",
"monaco-editor": "^0.28.1",
"vim-monaco": "file:../path-to-your-local-vim-monaco"
},
"scripts": {
"start": "vite",
"build": "vite build",
"serve": "vite preview"
},
"devDependencies": {
"vite": "^2.4.4",
"@vitejs/plugin-react": "^1.0.0"
}
}
Since you're encountering an issue with SelectionDirection
, ensure that window.monaco
is available when accessing SelectionDirection
.
Here's an example of how you might adjust adapter.ts
:
/**
* An adapter to make CodeMirror's vim bindings work with monaco
*/
import { IPosition, IRange, ISelection } from "monaco-editor";
import monaco from "monaco-editor";
import { StatusBarInputOptions, ModeChangeEvent } from "./statusbar";
import { ExCommandOptionalParameters } from "./keymap_vim";
import { Pos, getEventKeyName, makePos } from "./common";
// Ensure window.monaco is available
const SelectionDirection = window.monaco ? window.monaco.SelectionDirection : monaco.SelectionDirection;
export class CmSelection {
/// Where the selection started from
readonly anchor: Pos;
/// Where the cursor currently is
readonly head: Pos;
constructor(anchor: Pos, head: Pos) {
this.anchor = anchor;
this.head = head;
}
}
After making the changes, you can rebuild your project to ensure that everything is working correctly.
yarn dev
This setup should help you use your forked version of vim-monaco
and troubleshoot the issue with SelectionDirection
. Let me know if you encounter any other issues!

You don't need to put your local vim-monaco
repo in the node_modules
of your handterm
project manually. Using the file:
protocol in your package.json
should work as long as the path is correct and the package structure is valid.
Here are some steps to ensure everything is set up correctly:
Ensure the path to the local vim-monaco
repo is correct relative to the handterm
project.
Ensure the vim-monaco
package in your local repo has the correct structure and a valid package.json
.
Example package.json
for vim-monaco
:
{
"name": "vim-monaco",
"version": "1.0.0",
"main": "dist/index.js",
"module": "dist/index.js",
"files": [
"dist"
],
"scripts": {
"build": "tsc"
},
"dependencies": {
"monaco-editor": "^0.50.0"
},
"devDependencies": {
"typescript": "^5.5.2"
}
}
Ensure your local vim-monaco
package is built and the output is in the dist
directory.
cd ../vim-monaco
yarn install
yarn build
Ensure the path in your handterm
project's package.json
is correct.
{
"dependencies": {
"vim-monaco": "file:../vim-monaco"
}
}
Clean the node_modules
and reinstall dependencies in your handterm
project to ensure it picks up the local package.
cd ../handterm
rm -rf node_modules
yarn install
Ensure that the import statement in your MonacoEditor.tsx
is correct and pointing to the vim-monaco
package.
// src/components/MonacoEditor.tsx
import { useEffect, useRef, forwardRef, useImperativeHandle } from 'react';
import * as monaco from 'monaco-editor';
import { VimMode } from 'vim-monaco';
import './MonacoEditor.css'; // Import the CSS file
// ... rest of your code
If you still encounter issues, add some debugging logs to verify if the package is being imported correctly and if the paths are resolved correctly.
// src/components/MonacoEditor.tsx
import { useEffect, useRef, forwardRef, useImperativeHandle } from 'react';
import * as monaco from 'monaco-editor';
import { VimMode } from 'vim-monaco';
import './MonacoEditor.css'; // Import the CSS file
console.log('monaco:', monaco);
console.log('VimMode:', VimMode);
// ... rest of your code
In some cases, you might need to adjust the Vite configuration to ensure it correctly resolves the local package.
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react';
import path from 'path';
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [react()],
resolve: {
alias: {
'vim-monaco': path.resolve(__dirname, '../vim-monaco/dist/index.js'),
},
},
});
Following these steps should help you use your local vim-monaco
package in your handterm
project. If you still face issues, please ensure the paths are correct and the package structure is valid.
