djangocms-text-ckeditor
=======================
Text Plugin for django-cms with CK-Editor
.. WARNING::
``cms.plugins.text`` and ``djangocms-text-ckeditor`` can't be used at the same time.
.. WARNING::
For django CMS 2.3 and 2.4 use ``djangocms-text-ckeditor`` < 2 (e.g.: version 1.0.10).
``djangocms-text-ckeditor`` >= 2 is compatible with django CMS 3 only.
Installation
------------
This plugin requires `django CMS` 2.3 or higher to be properly installed.
* In your projects `virtualenv`, run ``pip install djangocms-text-ckeditor``.
* Add ``'djangocms_text_ckeditor'`` to your ``INSTALLED_APPS`` setting **BEFORE** the ``cms`` entry.
* Run ``manage.py migrate djangocms_text_ckeditor``.

Usage
-----
Default content in Placeholder
******************************
If you use Django-CMS >= 3.0, you can use ``TextPlugin`` in "default_plugins"
(see docs about the CMS_PLACEHOLDER_CONF setting in Django CMS 3.0).
``TextPlugin`` requires just one value: ``body`` where you write your default
HTML content. If you want to add some "default children" to your
automagically added plugin (i.e. a ``LinkPlugin``), you have to put children
references in the body. References are ``"%(_tag_child_<order>)s"`` with the
inserted order of chidren. For example::
CMS_PLACEHOLDER_CONF = {
'content': {
'name' : _('Content'),
'plugins': ['TextPlugin', 'LinkPlugin'],
'default_plugins':[
{
'plugin_type':'TextPlugin',
'values':{
'body':'<p>Great websites : %(_tag_child_1)s and %(_tag_child_2)s</p>'
},
'children':[
{
'plugin_type':'LinkPlugin',
'values':{
'name':'django',
'url':'https://www.djangoproject.com/'
},
},
{
'plugin_type':'LinkPlugin',
'values':{
'name':'django-cms',
'url':'https://www.django-cms.org'
},
},
]
},
]
}
}
CKEDITOR_SETTINGS
*****************
You can override the setting ``CKEDITOR_SETTINGS`` in your settings.py::
CKEDITOR_SETTINGS = {
'language': '{{ language }}',
'toolbar': 'CMS',
'skin': 'moono',
}
This is the default dict that holds all **CKEditor** settings. If you want to
use the CKEditor in your own models, then use the ``HTMLField`` from
``djangocms_text_ckeditor.fields`` and replace ``'toolbar': 'CMS'`` with
``'toolbar': 'HTMLField'`` in the above settings, in order to add an
For an overview of all the available settings have a look here:

Drag & Drop Images
------------------
In IE and Firefox based browsers it is possible to drag and drop a picture into the text editor.
This image is base64 encoded and lives in the 'src' attribute as a 'data' tag.
We detect this images, encode them and convert them to picture plugins.
If you want to overwirite this behavior for your own picture plugin:
There is a setting called::
TEXT_SAVE_IMAGE_FUNCTION = 'djangocms_text_ckeditor.picture_save.create_picture_plugin'
you can overwrite this setting in your settings.py and point it to a function that handles image saves.
Have a look at the function ``create_picture_plugin`` for details.
To completely disable the feature, set ``TEXT_SAVE_IMAGE_FUNCTION = None``.
Translations

Usage as a model field
----------------------
If you want to use the widget on your own model fields, you can! Just import the provided ``HTMLField`` like so::
from djangocms_text_ckeditor.fields import HTMLField
And use it in your models, just like a ``TextField``::
class MyModel(models.Model):
myfield = HTMLField(blank=True)
Configurable settings
*********************
When using ``HTMLField``, you can customize the ckeditor configuration for each
field::
class MyModel(models.Model):
myfield = HTMLField(blank=True, configuration='CKEDITOR_SETTINGS_MYMODEL')
and define a ``CKEDITOR_SETTINGS_MYMODEL`` parameter in project settings; values
not specified in your custom configuration will be taken from the global ``CKEDITOR_SETTINGS``.
Extending the plugin
--------------------
.. NOTE::
Added in version 2.0.1
You can use this plugin as base to create your own CKEditor-based plugins.
You need to create your own plugin model extending ``AbstractClass``::
from djangocms_text_ckeditor.models import AbstractText
class MyTextModel(AbstractText):
title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
and a plugin class extending ``TextPlugin`` class::
from djangocms_text_ckeditor.cms_plugins import TextPlugin
from .models import MyTextModel
class MyTextPlugin(TextPlugin):
name = _(u"My text plugin")
model = MyTextModel
plugin_pool.register_plugin(MyTextPlugin)
You can further customize your plugin as other plugins: http://django-cms.readthedocs.org/en/latest/extending_cms/custom_plugins.html
Adding plugins to the "CMS Plugins" dropdown
--------------------------------------------
If you have another plugin that you want to use inside texts you can make them appear in the dropdown by making them text_enabled.
Check in `django-cms doc`_ how to do this.
.. _django-cms doc: http://django-cms.readthedocs.org/en/develop/extending_cms/custom_plugins.html#text-enabled
Configurable sanitizer
----------------------
``djangocms-text-ckeditor`` uses `html5lib`_ to sanitize HTML to avoid
security issues and to check for correct HTML code.
Sanitisation may strip tags usesful for some use cases such as ``iframe``;
you may customize the tags and attributes allowed by overriding the
``TEXT_ADDITIONAL_TAGS`` and ``TEXT_ADDITIONAL_ATTRIBUTES`` settings::
TEXT_ADDITIONAL_TAGS = ('iframe',)
TEXT_ADDITIONAL_TAGS = ('scrolling', 'allowfullscreen', 'frameborder')
See the `html5lib documentation`_ for further information.
