Variable | Description |

The configuration data. See below! |
config = {
classes: ['rich-text-editor'],
tools: ['b', 'i', 'u', 'a', 'x'], // visible tool(s)
tags: [ // allowed HTML tag(s)
'a',
'abbr',
'b',
'br',
'code',
'dfn',
'del',
'em',
'i',
'ins',
'kbd',
'mark',

],
attributes: [ // allowed HTML attribute(s)
'class',
'data-[\\w-]+?',
'href',

'rel',
'style',
'target',
'title'
],
text: {
b: ['Bold', 'B', '⌘+B'],
i: ['Italic', 'I', '⌘+I'],
u: ['Underline', 'U', '⌘+U'],
a: ['Link', 'A', '⌘+L'],
x: ['Source', '⋯', '⌘+⇧+X']
},
tidy: true, // tidy HTML output?
enter: true, // set to `false` to automatically submit the closest form on enter key press
x: function(e, node) {}, // on mode change (view/source); set to `false` to disable the source view
update: function(e, node) {} // on view/source update
};
Note: All block tags are not allowed except
<p>
tags without attributes.
editor.focus();
editor.focus(0); // focus start
editor.focus(1); // focus end
editor.focus(true); // select all
editor.blur();
editor.enable();
editor.disable();
editor.create();
editor.destroy();
editor.lot; // selection storage [source, view]
editor.config; // editor configuration
editor.container; // editor container
editor.view; // editor view
editor.source; // editor source
editor.tools; // editor tools
editor.dialog; // editor dialog
editor.set('Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.');
console.log(editor.get());
var s = editor.s();
editor.r(s);
editor.v(); // as plain text
editor.v(true); // as HTML
editor.v(true, false); // as original selected HTML value in `editor.view`
editor.v(true, true, false); // as HTML and remove the wrapping `<p>` tag
editor.w('strong'); // toggle wrap/unwrap `<strong>` tag
editor.w('strong', 1); // force wrap `<strong>` tag
editor.w('strong', 0); // force unwrap `<strong>` tag
Wrap selection with HTML element and add attributes on that element:
var e = editor.w('a');
e.href = 'http://example.com';
e.rel = 'nofollow';
e.target = '_blank';
editor.c(0); // collapse to the start of the selection
editor.c(1); // collapse to the end of the selection
editor.i('<img arc="file.png">', true); // select the inserted HTML
editor.i('<img arc="file.png">', 0); // put caret after the inserted HTML (insert before caret)
editor.i('<img arc="file.png">', 1); // put caret before the inserted HTML (insert after caret)
editor.e(); // return list of nodes in the current selection
editor.e('a'); // check if the selected text is an `<a>` tag
editor.f('foo bar <b>baz</b> <span>qux</span>');
console.log(editor.n());
Create selection range from A node to B node.
var p = editor.view.querySelectorAll('p');
editor.m([p[0], p.pop()]);
if (editor.is.e('strong')) {
// caret was selecting a `<strong>` tag or is placed in a `<strong>` tag
}
// id: the tool ID
// text: array of [title, content, description]
// fn: the function that will be triggered on click
// i: tool index from the current tool list (if not defined, tool will be put at the end of the list)
//
// editor.t(id, text, fn, i);
Create a bold button:
editor.t('b', ['Bold', '<b>B</b>', 'Ctrl+B'], function(e, node) { … });
// fn(e, input);
editor.d(placeholder, value, fn);
editor.d.v();
editor.d.v(true); // save previous selection
editor.d.x();
editor.d.x(true); // restore previous selection
editor.d.x(true, true); // ignore the error, exit anyway
Check whether these elements are visible at the time:
editor.is.view; // the rich text editor view
editor.is.source; // the HTML source view
editor.is.dialog; // the dialog view
editor.is.focus; // check if cursor is active in the view
editor.is.blur; // check if cursor is not active in the view
editor.is.error; // check if there was an error
