Text Editor (ckeditor) - specific API

dutu · January 30, 2017, 4:49pm

Hello,

I’m trying to Access ckeditorAPI; as per documentation this could be done via $$(“editor”).getEditor();

However, it doesn’t work.

It looks that getEditor() doesn’t provide the necessary object, but rather the data within the the text editor:

webix-hub/components/blob/master/ckeditor/ckeditor.js#L56

    
      
          			language: this.config.language,

          			width:this.$width,

          			height:this.$height-barHeight,

          			resize_enabled:false

          		}, this.config.editorConfig);

          

          		this._editor = CKEDITOR[initMethod](this.config.textAreaID, config);

          		this._waitEditor.resolve(this._editor);

          	},

          	_set_inner_size:function(x, y){

          		if (!this._editor || !this._editor.container || !this.$width || this.config.editorType === "inline") return;

          		this._editor.resize(x, y);

          	},

          	$setSize:function(x,y){

          		if (webix.ui.view.prototype.$setSize.call(this, x, y)){

          			this._set_inner_size(x,y);

          		}

          	},

          	setValue:function(value){

          		this.config.value = value;

Any advise would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Was a typo in the code, getEditor must return an editor object not a data ( getValue returns the data )

Please use the updated file, getEditor will return the correct value.

Thanks a lot for quick reply and fix!

Is there a way to use updated revision of ckeditor? Either by downloading it locally or pointing to their CDN (Index of /4.6.2/standard)?

I don’t manage to get it working

@maksim, I managed to use updated ckeditor source code by placing it locally under /webixcodebase/ckeditor/ directory and setting

webix.codebase = "/webixcodebase/"
