# Kotlin Playground

Component that creates Kotlin-aware editors capable of running code from HTML block elements.

[Examples](https://jetbrains.github.io/kotlin-playground/examples/)

## Installation

### Use our CDN

Insert a `` element into your page and specify what elements should be converted in its `data-selector` attribute.

```html
<script src="https://unpkg.com/kotlin-playground@1" data-selector="code">
```

Or, if you need to separate process of loading/conversion, omit the `data-selector` attribute and use a second `` element like this:

```html
<script src="https://unpkg.com/kotlin-playground@1">

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
KotlinPlayground('.code-blocks-selector');
});

```

You can also overwrite the server where the code will be sent to be compiled and analyzed (for example if you host a server instance that includes your own Kotlin libraries). For that you can set the `data-server` attribute.

And you can also set a default Kotlin version for code snippets to run on. Bear in mind that the [version set per editor](#customizing-editors) will take precedence though:

```html

```

Fork & clone [the old server repository](https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-web-demo) or [the new server](https://github.com/AlexanderPrendota/kotlin-compiler-server).

### Host your own instance

Install Kotlin-playground as dependency via NPM.

```bash
npm install kotlin-playground -S
```

And then just use it in your code.

```js
// ES5
var playground = require('kotlin-playground');

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
playground('code'); // attach to all elements
});

// ES6
import playground from 'kotlin-playground';

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
playground('code'); // attach to all elements
});
```

### Use from plugins

1) [Kotlin Playground WordPress plugin](https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-playground-wp-plugin) — [WordPress](https://wordpress.com/) plugin which allows to embed interactive Kotlin playground to any post.
2) [Kotlin Playground Coursera plugin](https://github.com/AlexanderPrendota/kotlin-playground-coursera-plugin) — Allows embedding interactive Kotlin playground for [coursera](https://www.coursera.org/) lessons.
3) [Kotlin Playground Orchid plugin](https://orchid.netlify.com/plugins/OrchidSyntaxHighlighter#kotlin-playground) — Allows embedding interactive Kotlin playground in [Orchid](https://orchid.netlify.com/) documentation sites.

### Options

Kotlin Playground supports several events, and also Kotlin version or server URL overwriting passing an additional `options` parameter on initialisation.

For example:
```js
function onChange(code) {
console.log("Editor code was changed:\n" + code);
}

function onTestPassed() {
console.log("Tests passed!");
}

const options = {
server: 'https://my-kotlin-playground-server',
version: '1.3.50',
onChange: onChange,
onTestPassed: onTestPassed,
callback: callback(targetNode, mountNode)
};

playground('.selector', options)

```

**Events description:**

- `onChange(code)` — Fires every time the content of the editor is changed. Debounce time: 0.5s.
_code_ — current playground code.

- `onTestPassed` — Is called after all tests passed. Use for target platform `junit`.

- `onTestFailed` — Is called after all tests failed. Use for target platform `junit`.

- `onCloseConsole` — Is called after the console's closed.

- `onOpenConsole` — Is called after the console's opened.

- `getJsCode(code)` — Is called after compilation Kotlin to JS. Use for target platform `js`.
_code_ — converted JS code from Kotlin.

- `callback(targetNode, mountNode)` — Is called after playground's united.
_targetNode_ — node with plain text before component initialization.
_mountNode_ — new node with runnable editor.

- `getInstance(instance)` - Getting playground state API.

```js
instance.state // playground attributes, dependencies and etc.
instance.nodes // playground NodeElement.
instance.codemirror // editor specification.
instance.execute() // function for executing code snippet.
instance.getCode() // function for getting code from snippet.
```

## Customizing editors

Use the following attributes on elements that are converted to editors to adjust their behavior.

- `data-version`: Target Kotlin [compiler version](https://api.kotlinlang.org/versions):

```html

/*
Your code here
*/

```
- `args`: Command line arguments.

```html

/*
Your code here
*/

```

- `data-target-platform`: target platform: `junit`, `canvas`, `js` or `java` (default).

```html

/*
Your code here
*/

```
- `data-highlight-only`: Read-only mode, with only highlighting. `data-highlight-only="nocursor"` - no focus on editor.

```html

/*
Your code here
*/

```

Or, you can make only a part of code read-only by placing it between `//sampleStart` and `//sampleEnd` markers.
If you don't need this just use attribute `none-markers`.
For adding hidden files: put files between `` tag with class `hidden-dependency`.

```html

import cat.Cat

fun main(args: Array) {
//sampleStart
val cat = Cat("Kitty")
println(cat.name)
//sampleEnd
}

package cat
class Cat(val name: String)


```
Also if you want to hide code snippet just set the attribute `folded-button` to `false` value.

- `data-js-libs`: By default component loads jQuery and makes it available to the code running in the editor. If you need any additional JS libraries, specify them as comma-separated list in this attribute.

```html

/*
Your code here
*/

```

- `auto-indent="true|false"`: Whether to use the context-sensitive indentation. Defaults to `false`.

- `theme="idea|darcula|default"`: Editor IntelliJ IDEA themes.

- `mode="kotlin|js|java|groovy|xml|c|shell|swift|obj-c"`: Different languages styles. Runnable snippets only with `kotlin`. Default to `kotlin`.

- `data-min-compiler-version="1.0.7"`: Minimum target Kotlin [compiler version](https://api.kotlinlang.org/versions)

- `data-autocomplete="true|false"`: Get completion on every key press. If `false` => Press ctrl-space to activate autocompletion. Defaults to `false`.

- `highlight-on-fly="true|false"`: Errors and warnings check for each change in the editor. Defaults to `false`.

- `indent="4"`: How many spaces a block should be indented. Defaults to `4`.

- `lines="true|false"`: Whether to show line numbers to the left of the editor. Defaults to `false`.

- `from="5" to="10"`: Create a part of code. Example `from` line 5 `to` line 10.

- `data-output-height="200"`: Set the iframe height in `px` in output. Use for target platform `canvas`.

- `match-brackets="true|false"`: Determines whether brackets are matched whenever the cursor is moved next to a bracket. Defaults to `false`

- `data-crosslink="enabled|disabled"`: Show link for open in playground. Defaults to `undefined` – only supported in playground.

- `data-shorter-height="100"`: show expander if height more than value of attribute

- `data-scrollbar-style`: Chooses a [scrollbar implementation](https://codemirror.net/doc/manual.html#config). Defaults to `overlay`.

## Supported keyboard shortcuts

- Ctrl+F9/Cmd+R — execute snippet
- Ctrl+/ — comment code
- Ctrl+Alt+L/Cmd+Alt+L — format code
- Shift+Tab — decrease indent
- Ctrl+Alt+H/Cmd+Alt+H — highlight code
- Ctrl+Alt+Enter/Cmd+Alt+Enter — show import suggestions
