ng-tinymce-typeahead

Angular directive tinymce autocomplete menu for links or image quick insertion control.

Why

Insert a link or an image is not user very friendly with tinymce.

Idea is to provide a faster way for inserting images and links in editor.

All you need to do is create your own REST service and consume it with $http or $resource by instance.

Check service example to see current format of results.

Then on your tinymce editor, just press Ctrl+Space or Cmd+Key (mac), and menu will be displayed.

TINY MCE version 4 only.

BOOTSTRAP version 3 only.

How to use it

You should already have script required for Angular.

<-- COMMON LIBS -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="angular.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="bootstrap.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="tinymce.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="typeahead.js/dist/bloodhound.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="typeahead.js/dist/typeahead.bundle.js"></script>
 
<-- ANGULAR LIBS PLUGINS -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="angular-ui-tinymce/src/tinymce.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="angular-typeahead/angular-typeahead.js"></script>

to the list above, you should add:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="dist/ng-tinymce-typeahead.min.css">
 
<script type="text/javascript" src="dist/ng-tinymce-typeahead.min.js"></script>

Then, inject ui.tinymce and ui.tinymce.typehead in your application module:

angular.module('myApp', ['ui.tinymce', 'ui.tinymce.typehead']);

and then under your tinymce directive add an div with ui-tinymce-linker-menu directive name attribute, menu and menu scope variable attribute (detail below).

Note link or image plugin have to be loaded, if not no issue, menu will just be hidden.

<!-- COMMON usage for TINYMCE-->
<textarea id="tinymce"  
      ui-tinymce='{body_class: "mousetrap", plugins: ["link image"]}' 
      ng-model="tinymce" 
      hotkey="{esc: close, 'ctrl+left': mute}" 
      class="mousetrap"></textarea>
<!-- DIRECTIVE usage for this directive -->
<div ui-tinymce-linker-menu menu="menu" service="service"></div>

myAppModule.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope) {
        
    $scope.menu = [
      { id: '1', label:'Music', icon:'glyphicon-music', children: [
          {id:'1-1', label:'Links', icon: 'glyphicon-link', children: [
            { id: '1-1-1', label:'Rap', type: 'link' },
            { id: '1-1-2', label:'Rock', type: 'link' }
          ]},
          {id:'1-2', label:'Images', icon: 'glyphicon-picture', children: [
            { id: '1-2-1', label:'Rap', type: 'image' },
            { id: '1-2-2', label:'Rock', type: 'image' }
          ]}
      ]},
      { id: '2', label:'Sport', icon:'glyphicon-tower', children: [
         .......
         ....
         ....
      ]}
      
      // THEN YOU NEED TO DEFINE OR USE YOUR OWN SERVICE FOR LINKS RESULT
      // HERE MY PROPOSITION, YOUR SERVICE WILL BE INJECTED AUTOMATICALY
      // SEE MY EXAMPLE : src/tinymce-typeahead-service.js
      $scope.service = {
          module:"ui.tinymce.typeahead.service",      // service module
          name:"typeaheadService",                    // service name
          methodLinks:"FetchLinks",                   // method name to fetch links
          methodImage:"FetchImageLinks"               // method name to fetch image src links
      };
      
    ];
    
});
