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.
This procedure uses standalone components. If using Angular Modules, see Angular Modules.
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.npm install @tinymce/tinymce-angular -
Using a text editor, open
/path/to/tinymce-angular-demo/src/app/app.component.tsand replace the contents with:import { Component } from '@angular/core'; import { EditorComponent } from '@tinymce/tinymce-angular'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', imports: [EditorComponent], template: ` <h1>TinyMCE 8 Angular Demo</h1> <editor [init]="init" licenseKey="gpl" /> ` }) export class App { init: EditorComponent['init'] = { plugins: 'lists link image table code help wordcount' }; } -
Include the
apiKeyoption in the editor element and include your Tiny Cloud API key. Such as:<editor apiKey="no-api-key" [init]="init" /> -
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 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/dist/tinymce-angular-demo/browserdirectory 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. |
Angular Modules
EditorModule is available to import from @tinymce/tinymce-angular. Which should be included in your my.module.ts file.
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { EditorModule } from '@tinymce/tinymce-angular';
@NgModule({
/* ... */
imports: [
EditorModule
],
/* ... */
})
export class MyModule {}
