using wysiwyg Editor text with angular2
Solution 1
If angular 2 Use Tinymce .. Why tinymce?
//.ts
import {EditorDirectory} from '/../directives';
@Component({
selector: 'Foo'
directives: [EditorDirectory],
template: '<textarea [htmlEditor]="Form.find('Text')"></textarea>'
})
// Tinymce directive
@Directive({
inputs: ['htmlEditor'],
selector: '[htmlEditor]'
})
tinymce.init({
selector: '.tinymce-editor',
schema: 'html5',
});
Index.html
<script src="//cdn.tinymce.com/4/tinymce.min.js"></script>
<script src="systemjs.config.js"></script>
<script>
System.import('app').catch(function(err) {
console.error(err);
});
</script>
Remaining can read from Tinymce
Solution 2
I agree with @mayur to use angular2 and tinyMCE. If you need more guidance on the HOW based on @mayur's answer:
directives/tiny.directive.ts:
import {Directive} from '@angular/core';
declare var tinymce: any;
// Tinymce directive
@Directive({
inputs: ['htmlEditor'],
selector: '[htmlEditor]'
})
export class EditorDirective{
constructor(){
tinymce.init({
selector: 'textarea', //change this to a specific class/id
schema: 'html5',
});
}
}
app.component.ts:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import {EditorDirective} from './directives/tiny.directive';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
directives: [EditorDirective],
templateUrl: '<textarea [htmlEditor]></textarea>' //having [htmlEditor]="Form.find('Text')" caused an error for me, your mileage may vary
})
export class AppComponent {
}
main.ts:
import { bootstrap } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
bootstrap(AppComponent);
index.html:
<html>
<head>
<!--include title/metadata etc. here-->
<!-- 1. Load libraries -->
<!--
include libraries here
follow angular2 quickstart for help
tinymce may require a jquery import here
-->
<script src="//cdn.tinymce.com/4/tinymce.min.js"></script>
<!-- 2. Configure SystemJS -->
<script src="systemjs.config.js"></script>
<script>
System.import('app').catch(function(err) {
console.error(err);
});
</script>
<!--don't forget styles!-->
</head>
<body>
<div>
<my-app>Loading...</my-app>
</div>
</body>
hope this helps
Solution 3
Here is the full explanation with steps.
-
Install:
npm install --save tinymce
-
In file give the path for tinymce script files
"scripts": [ "../node_modules/tinymce/tinymce.js", "../node_modules/tinymce/themes/modern/theme.js", "../node_modules/tinymce/plugins/link/plugin.js", "../node_modules/tinymce/plugins/paste/plugin.js", "../node_modules/tinymce/plugins/table/plugin.js" ],
-
Run the following command it will copy the styles inside the assests folder.
xcopy /I /E node_modules\tinymce\skins src\assets\skins
-
Create directive for tinymce so it will be used anywhere in the application.
import { Directive, EventEmitter, Input, Output, ElementRef,OnInit, AfterViewInit, OnDestroy } from '@angular/core'; declare var tinymce:any @Directive({ selector: '[htmlEditor]' }) export class SimpleTinyMceDirective implements OnInit,OnDestroy{ private htmlContent:any; private editor; @Output() private htmlEditorKeyUp : EventEmitter<any> = new EventEmitter(); constructor(private el:ElementRef){ } ngOnInit(){ tinymce.init({ selector: '#' + this.el.nativeElement.id, plugins: ['link', 'paste', 'table'], skin_url: 'assets/skins/lightgray', setup: editor => { this.editor = editor; editor.on('keyup', () => { const content = editor.getContent(); this.htmlEditorKeyUp.emit(content); }); }, }); } ngOnDestroy() { tinymce.remove(this.editor); } }
save it as simple-tinymce.directive.ts
-
Now inside the app.module.ts file
import * as tinymce from 'tinymce'; //"importing tinymce" import {SimpleTinyMceDirective} from './common/simple-tinymce/simple-tinymce.directive'; //import the directive your path of directive may be different than mine.
-
You can use like below inside the component template
<textarea id="description" class="form-control" name="description" placeholder="Enter the description" required [(ngModel)]='description' #description='ngModel' (htmlEditorKeyUp)="onHtmlEditorKeyUp($event)" htmlEditor></textarea>
-
You can fetch inside the component.ts like below
onHtmlEditorKeyUp(content:any):void{ console.log(content); }

I'm trying to use wysiwyg in my project angular2 when I add my code in index.html page (on the root page, it works)
but when I try to use it in a child view html it doesn't get the css or (and) javascript code to get my wysiwyg correctly
<!doctype> <html> <head> <base href="/"> <title>Arkloud Adservio</title> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, height=device-height, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0"/> <!-- Load libraries --> <!-- IE required polyfills, in this exact order --> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.0/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/es6-shim/es6-shim.min.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/systemjs/dist/system-polyfills.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/angular2/es6/dev/src/testing/shims_for_IE.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/angular2/bundles/angular2-polyfills.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/systemjs/dist/system.src.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/rxjs/bundles/Rx.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/angular2/bundles/angular2.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/angular2/bundles/router.dev.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/angular2/bundles/http.js"></script> <script src="node_modules/angular2/bundles/http.dev.js"></script> <!--bootsrat https--> <!-- Latest compiled and minified CSS --> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-1q8mTJOASx8j1Au+a5WDVnPi2lkFfwwEAa8hDDdjZlpLegxhjVME1fgjWPGmkzs7" crossorigin="anonymous"> <!-- Optional theme --> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap-theme.min.css" integrity="sha384-fLW2N01lMqjakBkx3l/M9EahuwpSfeNvV63J5ezn3uZzapT0u7EYsXMjQV+0En5r" crossorigin="anonymous"> <!-- Latest compiled and minified JavaScript --> <script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-0mSbJDEHialfmuBBQP6A4Qrprq5OVfW37PRR3j5ELqxss1yVqOtnepnHVP9aJ7xS" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="src/css/app.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="src/css/loginCss.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.4.0/css/font-awesome.min.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/froala_editor.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/froala_style.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/code_view.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/colors.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/emoticons.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/image_manager.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/image.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/line_breaker.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/table.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/char_counter.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/plugins/video.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/codemirror/5.3.0/codemirror.min.css"> <style> body { text-align: center;

</script> </body> </html>
in this case it works (I put my wysiwyg in my
index.html
)but when i put this on another view component it doesn't work
<div id="editor"> <form> <textarea id='edit' style="margin-top: 30px;" placeholder="Type some text"> <h1>Textarea</h1> <p>The editor can also be initialized on a textarea.</p> </textarea> <input type="submit"> </form> </div>
