The original text editor app for Nextcloud, based on [Ace](http://ace.c9.io/).

Features:
- Syntax highlighting
- Autosave
- Syntax checking
- Responsive design (optimised on mobile and desktop)

## Install
Simply copy the `files_texteditor` folder into the `apps` directory and enable the app within the Nextcloud settings.

## Usage
To use the editer, click on a [supported file](https://github.com/nextcloud/files_texteditor/blob/master/js/supported_mimetypes.json) within the Files app and the file will be loaded into the editor. Saving is automatic, but can also be triggered manually with `Ctrl+S` or `Cmd+S`.

Preview apps
------------

Apps can add side-by-side previews to the app for certain file types by using the preview api

```js

OCA.MYApp.Preview = function(){
...
}

OCA.MYApp.Preview.Prototype = {
/**
* Give the app the opportunity to load any resources it needs and prepare for rendering a preview
*/
init: function() {
...
},
/**
* @param {string} the text to create the preview for
* @param {jQuery} the jQuery element to render the preview in
*/
preview: function(text, previewElement) {
...
}
}

OCA.Files_Texteditor.registerPreviewPlugin('text/markdown', new OCA.MYApp.Preview());

```

For styling of the preview, the preview element will have the id `preview` and the className will be set to the mimetype of the file being eddited with any slash replaced by dashes.

e.g. when editing a markdown file the preview element can be styled using the `#preview.text-markdown` css query.
