Using TinyMCE from the Tiny Cloud CDN with the Angular framework
The Official TinyMCE Angular component integrates TinyMCE into Angular projects. This procedure creates a basic Angular application containing a TinyMCE editor.
For examples of the TinyMCE Angular integration, visit the tinymce-angular storybook.
Prerequisites
This procedure requires Node.js (and npm).
Procedure
-
On a command line or command prompt, install the Angular CLI Tool package.
npm install -g @angular/cli -
Create a new Angular project named
tinymce-angular-demo.ng new --defaults --skip-git tinymce-angular-demo -
Change into the newly created directory.
cd tinymce-angular-demo -
Install the
tinymce-angularpackage and save it to yourpackage.jsonwith--save.npm install --save @tinymce/tinymce-angular -
Using a text editor, open
/path/to/tinymce-angular-demo/src/app/app.module.tsand replace the contents with:import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { EditorModule } from '@tinymce/tinymce-angular'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent ], imports: [ BrowserModule, EditorModule ], providers: [], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { } -
Using a text editor, open
/path/to/tinymce-angular-demo/src/app/app.component.htmland replace the contents with:<h1>TinyMCE 6 Angular Demo</h1> <editor [init]="{ plugins: 'lists link image table code help wordcount' }" ></editor> -
Include the
apiKeyoption in the editor element and include your Tiny Cloud API key. Such as:<editor apiKey="your-api-key" [init]={ /* your other settings */ } ></editor> -
Test the application using the Angular development server.
-
To start the development server, navigate to the
tinymce-angular-demodirectory and run:ng serve --open -
To stop the development server, select on the command line or command prompt and press Ctrl+C.
-
Deploying the application to a HTTP server
The application will require further configuration before it can be deployed to a production environment. For information on configuring the application for deployment, see: Angular Docs - Building and serving Angular apps or Angular Docs - Deployment.
To deploy the application to a local HTTP Server:
-
Navigate to the
tinymce-angular-demodirectory and run:ng build -
Copy the contents of the
tinymce-angular-demo/distdirectory to the root directory of the web server.
The application has now been deployed on the web server.
| Additional configuration is required to deploy the application outside the web server root directory, such as http://localhost:<port>/my_angular_application. |
