Django CKEditor 5
==================

CKEditor 5 for Django >= 2.0

Quick start
-----------

.. code-block:: bash

pip install django-ckeditor-5

1. Add "django_ckeditor_5" to your INSTALLED_APPS in your `project/settings.py` like this:

.. code-block:: python

INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'django_ckeditor_5',
]

2. Also, in your `project/settings.py` add:

.. code-block:: python

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')

customColorPalette = [
{
'color': 'hsl(4, 90%, 58%)',
'label': 'Red'
},
{
'color': 'hsl(340, 82%, 52%)',
'label': 'Pink'
},
{
'color': 'hsl(291, 64%, 42%)',
'label': 'Purple'
},
{
'color': 'hsl(262, 52%, 47%)',
'label': 'Deep Purple'
},
{
'color': 'hsl(231, 48%, 48%)',
'label': 'Indigo'
},
{
'color': 'hsl(207, 90%, 54%)',
'label': 'Blue'
},
]

CKEDITOR_5_CUSTOM_CSS = 'path_to.css' # optional
CKEDITOR_5_FILE_STORAGE = "path_to_storage.CustomStorage" # optional
CKEDITOR_5_CONFIGS = {
'default': {
'toolbar': ['heading', '|', 'bold', 'italic', 'link',
'bulletedList', 'numberedList', 'blockQuote', 'imageUpload', ],

},
'extends': {
'blockToolbar': [
'paragraph', 'heading1', 'heading2', 'heading3',
'|',
'bulletedList', 'numberedList',
'|',
'blockQuote',
],
'toolbar': ['heading', '|', 'outdent', 'indent', '|', 'bold', 'italic', 'link', 'underline', 'strikethrough',
'code','subscript', 'superscript', 'highlight', '|', 'codeBlock', 'sourceEditing', 'insertImage',
'bulletedList', 'numberedList', 'todoList', '|', 'blockQuote', 'imageUpload', '|',
'fontSize', 'fontFamily', 'fontColor', 'fontBackgroundColor', 'mediaEmbed', 'removeFormat',
'insertTable',],
'image': {
'toolbar': ['imageTextAlternative', '|', 'imageStyle:alignLeft',
'imageStyle:alignRight', 'imageStyle:alignCenter', 'imageStyle:side', '|'],
'styles': [
'full',
'side',
'alignLeft',
'alignRight',
'alignCenter',
]

},
'table': {
'contentToolbar': [ 'tableColumn', 'tableRow', 'mergeTableCells',
'tableProperties', 'tableCellProperties' ],
'tableProperties': {
'borderColors': customColorPalette,
'backgroundColors': customColorPalette
},
'tableCellProperties': {
'borderColors': customColorPalette,
'backgroundColors': customColorPalette
}
},
'heading' : {
'options': [
{ 'model': 'paragraph', 'title': 'Paragraph', 'class': 'ck-heading_paragraph' },
{ 'model': 'heading1', 'view': 'h1', 'title': 'Heading 1', 'class': 'ck-heading_heading1' },
{ 'model': 'heading2', 'view': 'h2', 'title': 'Heading 2', 'class': 'ck-heading_heading2' },
{ 'model': 'heading3', 'view': 'h3', 'title': 'Heading 3', 'class': 'ck-heading_heading3' }
]
}
},
'list': {
'properties': {
'styles': 'true',
'startIndex': 'true',
'reversed': 'true',
}
}
}

# Define a constant in settings.py to specify file upload permissions
CKEDITOR_5_FILE_UPLOAD_PERMISSION = "staff" # Possible values: "staff", "authenticated", "any"

3. Include the app URLconf in your `project/urls.py` like this:

.. code-block:: python

from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static

# [ ... ]

urlpatterns += [
path("ckeditor5/", include('django_ckeditor_5.urls')),
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

Alternatively, you can use your own logic for file uploads. To do this, add the following to your `settings.py` file:

.. code-block:: python

# Define a constant in settings.py to specify the custom upload file view
CK_EDITOR_5_UPLOAD_FILE_VIEW_NAME = "custom_upload_file"

Then, in your `urls.py`, include the custom upload URL pattern:

.. code-block:: python

path("upload/", custom_upload_function, name="custom_upload_file"),

This allows users to customize the upload file logic by specifying their own view function and URL pattern.



4. Add to your `project/models.py`:

.. code-block:: python

from django.db import models
from django_ckeditor_5.fields import CKEditor5Field


class Article(models.Model):
title=models.CharField('Title', max_length=200)
text=CKEditor5Field('Text', config_name='extends')

Examples
-----------

Example of using a widget in a form:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: python

from django import forms

from django_ckeditor_5.widgets import CKEditor5Widget
from .models import Comment

class CommentForm(forms.ModelForm):
"""Form for comments to the article."""

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.fields["text"].required = False

class Meta:
model = Comment
fields = ("author", "text")
widgets = {
"text": CKEditor5Widget(
attrs={"class": "django_ckeditor_5"}, config_name="comment"
)
}

Example of using a widget in a template:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: python

{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% block header %}
{{ form.media }} # Required for styling/js to make ckeditor5 work
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}

{% csrf_token %}
{{ form.as_p }}


{% endblock %}

Custom storage example:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: python

import os
from urllib.parse import urljoin

from django.conf import settings
from django.core.files.storage import FileSystemStorage

class CustomStorage(FileSystemStorage):
"""Custom storage for django_ckeditor_5 images."""

location = os.path.join(settings.MEDIA_ROOT, "django_ckeditor_5")
base_url = urljoin(settings.MEDIA_URL, "django_ckeditor_5/")

Changing the language:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You can change the language via the ``language`` key in the config

.. code-block:: python

CKEDITOR_5_CONFIGS = {
'default': {
'toolbar': ['heading', '|', 'bold', 'italic', 'link',
'bulletedList', 'numberedList', 'blockQuote', 'imageUpload', ],
'language': 'de',
},

``language`` can be either:

1. a string containing a single language
2. a list of languages
3. a dict ``{"ui": }``

If you want the language to change with the user language in django
you can add ``CKEDITOR_5_USER_LANGUAGE=True`` to your django settings.
Additionally you will have to list all available languages in the ckeditor
config as shown above.

Creating a CKEditor5 instance from javascript:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To create a ckeditor5 instance dynamically from javascript you can use the
``ClassicEditor`` class exposed through the ``window`` global variable.

.. code-block:: javascript

const config = {};
window.ClassicEditor
.create( document.querySelector( '#editor' ), config )
.catch( error => {
console.error( error );
} );
}

Alternatively, you can create a form with the following structure:

.. code-block:: html









{your ckeditor config}

The ckeditor will be automatically created once the form has been added to the
DOM.

To access a ckeditor instance you can either get them through ``window.editors``

.. code-block:: javascript

const editor = windows.editors[""];

or by registering a callback

.. code-block:: javascript

//register callback
window.ckeditorRegisterCallback("", function(editor) {
// do something with editor
});
// unregister callback
window.ckeditorUnregisterCallback("");

Allow file uploading as link:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
By default only images can be uploaded and embedded in the content. To allow
uploading and embedding files as downloadable links you can add the following
to your config:

.. code-block:: python

CKEDITOR_5_ALLOW_ALL_FILE_TYPES = True
CKEDITOR_5_UPLOAD_FILE_TYPES = ['jpeg', 'pdf', 'png'] # optional
CKEDITOR_5_CONFIGS = {
'default': {
'toolbar': ['heading', '|', 'bold', 'italic', 'link',
'bulletedList', 'numberedList', 'blockQuote', 'imageUpload', 'fileUpload' ], # include fileUpload here
'language': 'de',
},

**Warning**: Uploaded files are not validated and users could upload malicious
content (e.g. a pdf which actually is an executable). Furthermore allowing file
uploads disables any validation for the image upload as the backend can't
distinguish between image and file upload. Exposing the file upload to
all/untrusted users poses a risk!

Restrict upload file size:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You can restrict the maximum size for uploaded images and files by adding

.. code-block:: python

CKEDITOR_5_MAX_FILE_SIZE = 5 # Max size in MB

to your config. Default is 0 (allow any file size).

Installing from GitHub:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: bash

cd your_root_project
git clone https://github.com/hvlads/django-ckeditor-5.git
cd django-ckeditor-5
yarn install
yarn run prod
cd your_root_project
python manage.py collectstatic

Example Sharing content styles between front-end and back-end:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To apply ckeditor5 styling outside of the editor, download content.styles.css from the official ckeditor5 docs and include it as a styleshet within your HTML template. You will need to add the ck-content class to the container of your content for the styles to be applied.
