How to use with require js
In order to use knockout-froala with require js, you require code snippet similar to following:
1. // Froala Editor plugins list.
var fe_plugins = ['align', 'char_counter', 'code_view', 'colors', 'draggable', 'emoticons',
'entities', 'file', 'font_family', 'font_size', 'fullscreen',
'image_manager', 'image', 'inline_style', 'line_breaker',
'link', 'lists', 'paragraph_format', 'paragraph_style', 'quote',
'save', 'table', 'url', 'video']
// Define paths.
var paths = {
'app': '../app',
'FroalaEditor': '../../../bower_components/froala-wysiwyg-editor/js/froala_editor.min',
'knockout':'../../../bower_components/knockout/dist/knockout.debug',
'knockout-froala':'../../../src/knockout-froala'
};
// Add Froala Editor plugins to path.
for (var i = 0; i < fe_plugins.length; i++) {
paths['fe_' + fe_plugins[i]] = '../../../bower_components/froala-wysiwyg-editor/js/plugins/' + fe_plugins[i] + '.min';
}
var shim = {
};
for (var i = 0; i < fe_plugins.length; i++) {
shim['fe_' + fe_plugins[i]] = {
deps: ['FroalaEditor']
}
}
// Init RequireJS.
requirejs.config({
'baseUrl': 'js/lib',
'paths': paths,
shim: shim
});
// Load the main app module to start the app
requirejs(["app"]);
Where:
1.fe_plugins denote list of froala plugins.
2.paths variable defines the path of all resources.
3.shim variable defines dependencies among js files.
4.app.js contains the logic of your app.
2. Here is app.js code:
requirejs(["knockout"],function(ko)
{
window.ko=ko;
requirejs(["FroalaEditor"],function(FroalaEditor)
{
window.FroalaEditor = FroalaEditor;
requirejs(["knockout-froala"],function()
{
requirejs(["fe_image","fe_char_counter"], function() {
(function(){
var viewModel = {
html: ko.observable( '' ),
options: {
enter: FroalaEditor.ENTER_DIV,
theme: 'gray',
charCounterMax:150
}
}
ko.applyBindings( viewModel, document.getElementById( 'app' ) );
})();
})
})
})
})
