| 1 | +# Django Froala WYSIWYG Editor |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +>django-froala-editor package helps integrate [Froala WYSIWYG HTML editor](https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/) with Django. |
| 4 | +
|
| 5 | +## Getting started |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +1. Install the package: |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | + `pip install django-froala-editor` |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +OR |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +Add the directory `froala_editor` from this repo to your Python path. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +1. Add `froala_editor` to INSTALLED_APPS in `settings.py`. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +2. Add the following line to `urlpatterns` in your application's `urls.py`. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +```python |
| 20 | + url(r'^froala_editor/', include('froala_editor.urls')), |
| 21 | +``` |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +Skip this url inclusion if you don't want image and file upload inside WYSIWYG editor. Images from URLs can still be embedded. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +## Usage |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +```python |
| 28 | +from django.db import models |
| 29 | +from froala_editor.fields import FroalaField |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +class Page(models.Model): |
| 32 | + content = FroalaField() |
| 33 | +``` |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +`FroalaField` uses `froala_editor.widgets.FroalaEditor` as its widget. You may directly use this widget with any of your forms.py: |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +```python |
| 38 | +from django import forms |
| 39 | +from froala_editor.widgets import FroalaEditor |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +class PageForm(forms.ModelForm): |
| 42 | + content = forms.CharField(widget=FroalaEditor) |
| 43 | +``` |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +### Usage outside admin |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +When used outside the Django admin, the media files are to be manually included in the template. Inside the ``<head>`` section or before the form is rendered, include: |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +```python |
| 50 | + {{ form.media }} |
| 51 | +``` |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +In case of jQuery conflict (when your project template already has jQuery), you need to include the following files instead of `{{ form.media }}` plus the static files for theme (if not default) and required plugins. |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +```python |
| 56 | + <link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.4.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" /> |
| 57 | + <link href="{{STATIC_URL}}froala_editor/css/froala_editor.min.css" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" /> |
| 58 | + <link href="{{STATIC_URL}}froala_editor/css/froala_style.min.css" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" /> |
| 59 | + <script type="text/javascript" src="{{STATIC_URL}}froala_editor/js/froala_editor.min.js"></script> |
| 60 | +``` |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +Or simply, you may use the following in your `settings.py` if you don't want Froala to include jQuery by itself, thus preventing any conflicts: |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +```python |
| 65 | + FROALA_INCLUDE_JQUERY = False |
| 66 | +``` |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +### Options |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +Froala Editor provides several options for customizing the editor. See [https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/docs](https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/docs) for all available options. |
| 71 | +You can provide a dictionary of these options as `FROALA_EDITOR_OPTIONS` setting in `settings.py`. These options would then be used for all instances of the WYSIWYG editor in the project. |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +Options for individual field can also be provided via `FroalaField` or `FroalaEditor` class. This overrides any options set via `FROALA_EDITOR_OPTIONS`: |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +```python |
| 76 | +from django.db import models |
| 77 | +from froala_editor.fields import FroalaField |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +class Page(models.Model): |
| 80 | + content = FroalaField(options={ |
| 81 | + 'toolbarInline': True, |
| 82 | + }) |
| 83 | +``` |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +```python |
| 86 | +from django import forms |
| 87 | +from froala_editor.widgets import FroalaEditor |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +class PageForm(forms.ModelForm): |
| 90 | + content = forms.TextField(widget=FroalaEditor(options={ |
| 91 | + 'toolbarInline': True, |
| 92 | + })) |
| 93 | +``` |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +### Theme |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +You may provide the name of the theme to be used as `theme` argument to `FroalaField` or `FroalaEditor`. |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | +```python |
| 100 | +from django.db import models |
| 101 | +from froala_editor.fields import FroalaField |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +class Page(models.Model): |
| 104 | + content = FroalaField(theme='dark') |
| 105 | +``` |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +`FROALA_EDITOR_THEME` can be set in `settings.py` making all instances of the editor to use a theme. However, `theme` argument in `FroalaField` and `FroalaEditor` overrides `FROALA_EDITOR_THEME`. Using a theme named 'dark' would require the existence of the file `froala_editor/static/froala_editor/css/themes/dark.min.css`. Available themes are: 'dark', 'gray' and 'red'. |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +### Plugins |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +Froala Editor comes with the plugins: block style, text & background colors, font size, font family, insert video, insert table, media manager, lists and file upload. By default, all plugins are enabled by default in this package. See [https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/docs/plugins](<https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/docs/plugins>) for all available plugins. |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +`FROALA_EDITOR_PLUGINS` can be set in `settings.py` to tell which plugins should all instances of Froala Editor be using. By default, it is |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +```python |
| 116 | +FROALA_EDITOR_PLUGINS = ('align', 'char_counter', 'code_beautifier' ,'code_view', 'colors', 'draggable', 'emoticons', |
| 117 | + 'entities', 'file', 'font_family', 'font_size', 'fullscreen', 'image_manager', 'image', 'inline_style', |
| 118 | + 'line_breaker', 'link', 'lists', 'paragraph_format', 'paragraph_style', 'quick_insert', 'quote', 'save', 'table', |
| 119 | + 'url', 'video') |
| 120 | +``` |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | +The usage of `plugins` argument with `FroalaEditor` or `FroalaField` overrides this for that particular instance. |
| 123 | + |
| 124 | +```python |
| 125 | +from django.db import models |
| 126 | +from froala_editor.fields import FroalaField |
| 127 | + |
| 128 | +class Page(models.Model): |
| 129 | + content = FroalaField(plugins=('font_size', 'font_family')) |
| 130 | +``` |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +### Image upload |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | +`FroalaEditor` and `FroalaField` optionally take in a boolean value for `image_upload` argument to enable or disable image uploads. Image uploads are enabled by default if the urls of this package are included in your urls.py. |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | +You can use `FROALA_UPLOAD_PATH` setting in `settings.py` to change the path where uploaded files are stored within the `MEDIA_ROOT`. By default, `uploads/froala_editor/images` is used for storing uploaded images. |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +### Include jQuery |
| 139 | + |
| 140 | +jQuery is included by default in form media. If you don't want to include jQuery, you may pass `include_jquery=False` to `FroalaEditor` or `FroalaField`. `FROALA_INCLUDE_JQUERY` can be also set in `settings.py` for project wide effects. |

| 153 | + # other options |
| 154 | + # ... |
| 155 | +} |
