The type of the value contained in the document
The document
The path to the string
The position of the cursor, either an index, 'start' or 'end'
Optionalmove: MoveCursorThe direction the cursor should resolve to, defaults to 'after'
A cursor represents a relative position, "before character X", rather than an absolute position. As the document is edited, the cursor remains stable relative to its context, just as you'd expect from a cursor in a concurrent text editor.
The string representation is shareable, and so you can use this both to edit the document yourself (using splice) or to share multiple collaborator's current cursor positions over the network.
The cursor's position can be an index in the string, 'start' or 'end'.
'start' ensures this cursor always resolves to 0'end' ensures this cursor always resolves to string.lengthStart cursors can be created by passing any negative number in position.
End cursors can be created by passing a number >= string.length in position.
move determines the position the cursor resolves to if the character at
index is removed:
'after' causes the cursor to resolve towards string.length'before' causes the cursor to resolve towards 0move is 'after' by default.
Returns a cursor for the given position in a string.
