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-angular
package and save it to yourpackage.json
with--save
.npm install --save @tinymce/tinymce-angular
-
Using a text editor, open
/path/to/tinymce-angular-demo/src/app/app.component.ts
and replace the contents with:import { Component } from '@angular/core'; import { EditorComponent } from '@tinymce/tinymce-angular'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', standalone: true, imports: [EditorComponent], template: ` <h1>TinyMCE 7 Angular Demo</h1> <editor [init]="init" /> ` }) export class AppComponent { init: EditorComponent['init'] = { plugins: 'lists link image table code help wordcount' }; }
-
Include the
apiKey
option in the editor element and include your Tiny Cloud API key. Such as:<editor apiKey="your-api-key" [init]="init" />
-
Test the application using the Angular development server.
-
To start the development server, navigate to the
tinymce-angular-demo
directory 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-demo
directory and run:ng build
-
Copy the contents of the
tinymce-angular-demo/dist
directory 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, TINYMCE_SCRIPT_SRC } from '@tinymce/tinymce-angular';
@NgModule({
/* ... */
imports: [
EditorModule
],
providers: [
// If you're self hosting and lazy loading TinyMCE from node_modules:
{ provide: TINYMCE_SCRIPT_SRC, useValue: 'tinymce/tinymce.min.js' }
],
/* ... */
})
export class MyModule {}
