Is HtmlRenderer a public component ready for use in custom blocks?

[mrleemon]

Hi,

I noticed that recently, all core dynamic blocks have migrated away from ServerSideRender in favor of the new HtmlRenderer component.

I have a few custom dynamic blocks currently relying on ServerSideRender, and I would like to update them to use HtmlRenderer if possible. While looking through the core implementation, I noticed it's being imported relatively:

import HtmlRenderer from '../utils/html-renderer';

A couple of questions regarding this:

• Is HtmlRenderer considered a public component? Or is it currently intended for internal core use only?
• If it is public, what is the correct way to import it into a custom block plugin?

Any guidance on the recommended path forward for custom blocks would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @mrleemon,

This is for internal use only. There are no current plans to make it public. However, if you simply copy the implementation of that component, you should be able to achieve the same result.
