Getting Started

Installation

[!WARNING] For version >=1.0.7 its a requirement to use node version >=18.18.2 because of the eslint dependencies.

Using npm:

npm install fusion-angular-wysiwyg

Using yarn:

yarn add fusion-angular-wysiwyg

Usage

Import module:

[!NOTE] Requires HttpClientModule for the image upload.

1// Needs to import HttpClientModule
2import { HttpClientModule} from '@angular/common/http';
3import { AngularEditorModule } from 'fusion-angular-wysiwyg';
4
5@NgModule({
6  imports: [ HttpClientModule, AngularEditorModule ]
7})

You can use the angular-editor component. Like this:

1<angular-editor [placeholder]="'Jot something down...'" [(ngModel)]="htmlContent"></angular-editor>

You can add an id attribute if you are going to use the same element multiple times.

You can customize the editor by passing configs through the [config] attribute.

Like this:

1<angular-editor id="editor1" [config]="editorConfig"></angular-editor>
2<angular-editor id="editor2" [config]="editorConfig"></angular-editor>

Whe using multiple angular-editor components, add a unique id property to the component.

Adding Images:

By default if you click on the image icon and select an image it will be inserted as base64 string on the img src= attribute.

You can copy and paste external images if you want to add them also.

You can define backend endpoints to save the image or directly send the url of the image which should be passed to the img element.

You can define the uploadUrl config to make a request to the backend to insert the image.

1config: AngularEditorConfig = {
2  uploadUrl: 'http://localhost:9000/upload_img',
3  // ...
4};

You can also define the upload config to make the request and map the response into a url to be inserted on the HTML on the editor.

1import { HttpClient, HttpResponse } from '@angular/common/http';
2import { UploadResponse, AngularEditorConfig } from 'fusion-angular-wysiwyg';
3import { map } from 'rxjs';
4
5// ...
6
7export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
8  constructor(
9    // ...
10    private http: HttpClient,
11  ) {}
12
13  config: AngularEditorConfig = {
14    // ...
15    upload: (file) => {
16      const url = 'http://localhost:9000/upload_img';
17      const uploadData: FormData = new FormData();
18      uploadData.append('file', file, file.name);
19      return this.http
20        .post<{ file: string; url: string }>(url, uploadData, {
21          observe: 'response',
22        })
23        .pipe(
24          map((response) => {
25            const imageUrl = response.body.url;
26            return {
27              ...response,
28              body: { imageUrl },
29            } as HttpResponse<UploadResponse>;
30          }),
31        );
32    },
33    // ...
34  };
35  // ...
36}

Image resize

One of the main features of this project is image resizing option.

You can drag the image to make it bigger or smaller, set max and min sizes through config, etc.

The imageResizeSensitivity config (default 2) defines how fast the image will resize based on the mouse move.

Custom Buttons

You have the flexibility to define custom buttons with specific actions using the executeCommandFn. This function accepts commands from execCommand, where the first argument is aCommandName, and the second argument is aValueArgument.

In the example below, a custom button is created that adds the Angular Editor logo into the editor:

1
2<angular-editor id="editor1" formControlName="htmlContent1" [config]="editorConfig">
3  <ng-template #customButtons let-executeCommandFn="executeCommandFn">
4    <ae-toolbar-set>
5      <ae-button 
6        iconClass="fa fa-html5" 
7        title="Insert Angular Editor Logo" 
8        (buttonClick)="executeCommandFn('insertHtml', angularEditorLogo)">
9      </ae-button>
10    </ae-toolbar-set>
11  </ng-template>
12</angular-editor>

Feel free to customize the iconClass, title, and buttonClick event according to your requirements.
