Properties

  • deprecated readonly inherited

    _editableElements : unknown

    See source

    Stores all editable elements used by the editor instance.

  • readonly inherited

    ariaLiveAnnouncer : AriaLiveAnnouncer

    See source

    A helper that manages the content of an aria-live regions used by editor features to announce status changes to screen readers.

  • readonly inherited

    componentFactory : ComponentFactory

    See source

    An instance of the ComponentFactory, a registry used by plugins to register factories of specific UI components.

  • readonly inherited

    editor : Editor

    See source

    The editor that the UI belongs to.

  • readonly

    element : null | HTMLElement

    See source

    The main (outermost) DOM element of the editor UI.

    For example, in ClassicEditor it is a <div> which wraps the editable element and the toolbar. In InlineEditor it is the editable element itself (as there is no other wrapper). However, in DecoupledEditor it is set to null because this editor does not come with a single "main" HTML element (its editable element and toolbar are separate).

    This property can be understood as a shorthand for retrieving the element that a specific editor integration considers to be its main DOM element.

  • readonly inherited

    evaluationBadge : EvaluationBadge

    See source

    A helper that enables the "evaluation badge" feature in the editor.

  • readonly inherited

    focusTracker : FocusTracker

    See source

    Stores the information about the editor UI focus and propagates it so various plugins and components are unified as a focus group.

  • readonly inherited

    isReady : boolean

    See source

    Indicates the UI is ready. Set true after event-ready event is fired.

    Defaults to false

  • readonly inherited

    poweredBy : PoweredBy

    See source

    A helper that enables the "powered by" feature in the editor and renders a link to the project's webpage.

  • readonly inherited

    tooltipManager : TooltipManager

    See source

    Manages the tooltips displayed on mouseover and focus across the UI.

  • readonly

    view : InlineEditorUIView

    See source

    The main (top–most) view of the editor UI.

  • inherited observable

    viewportOffset : ViewportOffset

    See source

    Stores viewport offsets from every direction.

    Viewport offset can be used to constrain balloons or other UI elements into an element smaller than the viewport. This can be useful if there are any other absolutely positioned elements that may interfere with editor UI.

    Example editor.ui.viewportOffset returns:

    {
	top: 50,
	right: 50,
	bottom: 50,
	left: 50,
	visualTop: 50
}

    This property can be overriden after editor already being initialized:

    editor.ui.viewportOffset = {
	top: 100,
	right: 0,
	bottom: 0,
	left: 0
};

  • private readonly

    _toolbarConfig : object

    See source

    A normalized config.toolbar object.

Methods

  • constructor( editor, view )

    See source

    Creates an instance of the inline editor UI class.

    Parameters

    editor : Editor

    The editor instance.

    view : InlineEditorUIView

    The view of the UI.

  • inherited

    addToolbar( toolbarView, options ) → void

    See source

    Adds a toolbar to the editor UI. Used primarily to maintain the accessibility of the UI.

    Focusable toolbars can be accessed (focused) by users by pressing the Alt + F10 keystroke. Successive keystroke presses navigate over available toolbars.

    Parameters

    toolbarView : ToolbarView

    A instance of the toolbar to be registered.

    options : FocusableToolbarOptions

    Defaults to {}

    Returns

    void

    bind( bindProperty1, bindProperty2 ) → DualBindChain<K1, InlineEditorUI[ K1 ], K2, InlineEditorUI[ K2 ]>

    See source

    Binds observable properties to other objects implementing the Observable interface.

    Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of property bindings with some additional examples.

    Consider two objects: a button and an associated command (both Observable).

    A simple property binding could be as follows:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled' );

    or even shorter:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );

    which works in the following way:

    • button.isEnabled instantly equals command.isEnabled,
    • whenever command.isEnabled changes, button.isEnabled will immediately reflect its value.

    Note: To release the binding, use unbind.

    You can also "rename" the property in the binding by specifying the new name in the to() chain:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isWorking' );

    It is possible to bind more than one property at a time to shorten the code:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled', 'value' ).to( command );

    which corresponds to:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );
button.bind( 'value' ).to( command );

    The binding can include more than one observable, combining multiple data sources in a custom callback:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled', ui, 'isVisible',
	( isCommandEnabled, isUIVisible ) => isCommandEnabled && isUIVisible );

    Using a custom callback allows processing the value before passing it to the target property:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'value', value => value === 'heading1' );

    It is also possible to bind to the same property in an array of observables. To bind a button to multiple commands (also Observables) so that each and every one of them must be enabled for the button to become enabled, use the following code:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).toMany( [ commandA, commandB, commandC ], 'isEnabled',
	( isAEnabled, isBEnabled, isCEnabled ) => isAEnabled && isBEnabled && isCEnabled );

    Type parameters

    K1
    K2

    Parameters

    bindProperty1 : K1

    Observable property that will be bound to other observable(s).

    bindProperty2 : K2

    Observable property that will be bound to other observable(s).

    Returns

    DualBindChain<K1, InlineEditorUI[ K1 ], K2, InlineEditorUI[ K2 ]>

    The bind chain with the to() and toMany() methods.

    decorate( methodName ) → void

    See source

    Turns the given methods of this object into event-based ones. This means that the new method will fire an event (named after the method) and the original action will be plugged as a listener to that event.

    Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of decorating methods with some additional examples.

    Decorating the method does not change its behavior (it only adds an event), but it allows to modify it later on by listening to the method's event.

    For example, to cancel the method execution the event can be stopped:

    class Foo extends ObservableMixin() {
	constructor() {
		super();
		this.decorate( 'method' );
	}

	method() {
		console.log( 'called!' );
	}
}

const foo = new Foo();
foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => {
	evt.stop();
}, { priority: 'high' } );

foo.method(); // Nothing is logged.

    Note: The high priority listener has been used to execute this particular callback before the one which calls the original method (which uses the "normal" priority).

    It is also possible to change the returned value:

    foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => {
	evt.return = 'Foo!';
} );

foo.method(); // -> 'Foo'

    Finally, it is possible to access and modify the arguments the method is called with:

    method( a, b ) {
	console.log( `${ a }, ${ b }`  );
}

// ...

foo.on( 'method', ( evt, args ) => {
	args[ 0 ] = 3;

	console.log( args[ 1 ] ); // -> 2
}, { priority: 'high' } );

foo.method( 1, 2 ); // -> '3, 2'

    Parameters

    methodName : 'off' | 'on' | 'once' | 'listenTo' | 'stopListening' | 'fire' | 'delegate' | 'stopDelegating' | 'set' | 'bind' | 'unbind' | 'decorate' | 'element' | 'view' | 'viewportOffset' | 'destroy' | 'focusTracker' | 'update' | 'poweredBy' | 'init' | 'componentFactory' | 'editor' | 'tooltipManager' | 'evaluationBadge' | 'ariaLiveAnnouncer' | 'isReady' | 'setEditableElement' | 'removeEditableElement' | 'getEditableElement' | 'getEditableElementsNames' | 'addToolbar' | 'extendMenuBar' | 'initMenuBar'

    Name of the method to decorate.

    Returns

    delegate( events ) → EmitterMixinDelegateChain

    See source

    Delegates selected events to another Emitter. For instance:

    emitterA.delegate( 'eventX' ).to( emitterB );
emitterA.delegate( 'eventX', 'eventY' ).to( emitterC );

    then eventX is delegated (fired by) emitterB and emitterC along with data:

    emitterA.fire( 'eventX', data );

    and eventY is delegated (fired by) emitterC along with data:

    emitterA.fire( 'eventY', data );

    Parameters

    events : Array<string>

    Event names that will be delegated to another emitter.

    Returns

    EmitterMixinDelegateChain

  item: 'menuBar:customFunctionButton',
  position: 'after:menuBar:bold'
} );

// Register a new menu bar group.

    listenTo( emitter, event, callback, [ options ] ) → void

    See source

    Registers a callback function to be executed when an event is fired in a specific (emitter) object.

    Events can be grouped in namespaces using :. When namespaced event is fired, it additionally fires all callbacks for that namespace.

    // myEmitter.on( ... ) is a shorthand for myEmitter.listenTo( myEmitter, ... ).
myEmitter.on( 'myGroup', genericCallback );
myEmitter.on( 'myGroup:myEvent', specificCallback );

// genericCallback is fired.
myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup' );
// both genericCallback and specificCallback are fired.
myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup:myEvent' );
// genericCallback is fired even though there are no callbacks for "foo".
myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup:foo' );

    An event callback can stop the event and set the return value of the fire method.

    Parameters

    rootName : string

    The name of the editable element to remove.

    Returns

    void

  • inherited

    set( values ) → void

    See source

    Creates and sets the value of an observable properties of this object. Such a property becomes a part of the state and is observable.

    It accepts a single object literal containing key/value pairs with properties to be set.

    This method throws the observable-set-cannot-override error if the observable instance already has a property with the given property name. This prevents from mistakenly overriding existing properties and methods, but means that foo.set( 'bar', 1 ) may be slightly slower than foo.bar = 1.

    In TypeScript, those properties should be declared in class using declare keyword. In example:

    public declare myProp1: number;
public declare myProp2: string;

constructor() {
	this.set( {
		'myProp1: 2,
		'myProp2: 'foo'
	} );
}

    Parameters

    values : object

    An object with name=>value pairs.

    Returns

    void

  • inherited

    set( name, value ) → void

    set:{property}( eventInfo, name, value, oldValue )

    See source

    Fired when a property value is going to be set but is not set yet (before the change event is fired).

    You can control the final value of the property by using the event's return property.

    observable.set( 'prop', 1 );

observable.on<ObservableSetEvent<number>>( 'set:prop', ( evt, propertyName, newValue, oldValue ) => {
	console.log( `Value is going to be changed from ${ oldValue } to ${ newValue }` );
	console.log( `Current property value is ${ observable[ propertyName ] }` );

	// Let's override the value.
	evt.return = 3;
} );

observable.on<ObservableChangeEvent<number>>( 'change:prop', ( evt, propertyName, newValue, oldValue ) => {
	console.log( `Value has changed from ${ oldValue } to ${ newValue }` );
} );

observable.prop = 2; // -> 'Value is going to be changed from 1 to 2'
                     // -> 'Current property value is 1'
                     // -> 'Value has changed from 1 to 3'

    Note: The event is fired even when the new value is the same as the old value.
