aurelia-froala v1.0.6

aurelia-froala

This package provides a custom element for the Froala editor in Aurelia.

##Version 2 This repository contains bindings for the latest version of the Froala Editor (version 2). Version 1 of Froala is not supported.

##Install

Run

	jspm install npm:aurelia-froala

In your main.js or main.ts, extend the code

	aurelia.use
		.standardConfiguration()

with

	.plugin('aurelia-froala', config => {});

In an Aurelia template, just use the aurelia-froala custom element to instantiate an editor. All configuration options can be set via the config attribute.

	<aurelia-froala value.two-way="value"
		config.bind="{
			toolbarButtons: ['redo' , '|', 'fontFamily', '|', 'fontSize', '|', 'paragraphFormat', 'color', '|', 'bold', 'italic', 'underline', 'strikethrough', 'subscript', 'superscript', 'outdent', 'indent', 'clearFormatting', 'insertTable', 'html'],
			toolbarButtonsMD: ['redo' , '|', 'fontFamily', '|', 'fontSize', '|', 'paragraphFormat', 'color'],
			toolbarButtonsSM: ['redo' , '|', 'fontFamily', '|', 'fontSize', '|', 'paragraphFormat', 'color'],
			toolbarButtonsXS: ['redo' , '|', 'fontFamily', '|', 'fontSize', '|', 'paragraphFormat', 'color'],
			fontFamilySelection: true,
			fontSizeSelection: true
		}">
	</aurelia-froala>

All the event handlers are also available:

	<aurelia-froala value.two-way="value"
		event-handlers.bind = "{
			'paste.afterCleanup': processPaste
		}"

Global configuration

To use the editor, you'll need a licnse (see Froala Website for details). Once you have obtained one, you can activate it using this snippet:

	config.setLicense("Your license key");

Plugins, custom buttons and other languages need to be activated globally. This is done in the main.js or main.ts:

	aurelia.use
		.standardConfiguration()
		.plugin('aurelia-froala', config => {
			// Load plugins
			config.addPlugin("colors");
			config.addPlugin("align");
			config.addPlugin("code_beautifier");
			config.addPlugin("image") // The image_manager plugin depends on the image plugin, so the former needs to loaded after the latter.
				.then(() => config.addPlugin("image_manager"));

			// Create a custom button
			config.global(editor => {
				// Define an icon
				editor.DefineIcon("insertFromServerIcon", {NAME: "folder"})
				// Register the new command. It can now be added to a toolbar using the command 'insertFromServer'
				editor.RegisterCommand('insertFromServer', {
					title: 'Insert from server',
					icon: 'insertFromServerIcon',
					undo: true,
					focus: true,
					refreshAfterCallback: true,
					callback: function () {
						console.log("Insert from server");
					}
				});
			});

			// Add another language
			config.addLanguage("de", {
					"Insert from server": "Vom Server einfügen",
				})
			})
		}

If you add custom plugins or commands you might want to localize them. This is done by providing the localized strings in the second parameter of the addLanguage method.

The languages of all editors on a page are automatically adjusted when the global aurelia language is changed. You don't have to perform any additional magic.
