CKeditor save event - events

Question

I was following the steps written in this topic: CKEditor, AJAX Save
I tried to fire a custom 'saved.ckeditor' event if anybody press the AjaxSave button. But I did not succeeded.
ckeditor/plugins/ajaxsave/plugin.js:
(function(){
var saveCmd =
{
modes : { wysiwyg:1, source:1 },
exec : function( editor )
{
editor.fire('saved.ckeditor');
$(editor).trigger('saved.ckeditor', editor.getData());
alert(editor.getData());
}
}
var pluginName = 'ajaxsave';
CKEDITOR.plugins.add( pluginName,
{
init : function( editor )
{
var command = editor.addCommand( pluginName, saveCmd );
command.modes = { wysiwyg : !!( editor.element.$.form ) };
editor.ui.addButton( 'AjaxSave',
{
label : editor.lang.save,
command : pluginName,
className : 'cke_button_save'
});
}
});
})();
If I get or set the editor data in the function, the get and set events will automatically be fired. But I could not even fire a 'getData.ckeditor' event manually.
Any tips?
An other thing: how can I disable the button if the editor's content haven't changed since the last save (it is not dirty)?

Answer 1

I have a workaround.
Outside I can listen to the set event:
window.onload = function()
{
var ckparams={width: 500, height: 400, resize_enabled:false, extraPlugins: 'ajaxsave',toolbar:[['AjaxSave','Source','-','Bold','Italic','Underline','-','Undo','Redo','-','Find','Replace','-','SelectAll','-','SpellChecker','Scayt','-','About']]};
//CKEDITOR.replace('editor', ckparams);
var editor = $('textarea.editor').ckeditor(ckparams);
$(editor).bind('setData.ckeditor', function() {
//do what I want
});
};
...and when the button is pressed, set the data with its current value:
var saveCmd =
{
modes : { wysiwyg:1, source:1 },
exec : function( editor )
{
editor.setData(editor.getData());
}
}
This way at least an event is fired...
But I shold be careful when I manually set the content from outside...

try this, you need to finish the exec() function
(function() {
var saveCmd = {
modes:{wysiwyg:1,source:1 },
readOnly: 1,
exec: function( editor ) {
var data = editor.getData();
console.info(data);
}
};
var pluginName = 'ajaxSave';
// Register a plugin named "save".
CKEDITOR.plugins.add( pluginName, {
lang: 'af,ar,bg,bn,bs,ca,cs,cy,da,de,el,en-au,en-ca,en-gb,en,eo,es,et,eu,fa,fi,fo,fr-ca,fr,gl,gu,he,hi,hr,hu,is,it,ja,ka,km,ko,ku,lt,lv,mk,mn,ms,nb,nl,no,pl,pt-br,pt,ro,ru,sk,sl,sq,sr-latn,sr,sv,th,tr,ug,uk,vi,zh-cn,zh', // %REMOVE_LINE_CORE%
icons: 'save', // %REMOVE_LINE_CORE%
init: function( editor ) {
// Save plugin is for replace mode only.
if ( editor.elementMode != CKEDITOR.ELEMENT_MODE_REPLACE ) return;
editor.ui.addButton && editor.ui.addButton( 'Save', {
label: editor.lang.save.toolbar,
command: pluginName,
toolbar: 'document,10'
});
}
});
})();
and don't forget to enable the plugin in config.js
config.extraPlugins = 'ajaxSave';

You can edit the functionality of the regular save button to do what you want:
html:
<textarea id="CKEditor1"></textarea>
javascript:
<script>
// Need to wait for the ckeditor instance to finish initialization
// because CKEDITOR.instances.editor.commands is an empty object
// if you try to use it immediately after CKEDITOR.replace('editor');
CKEDITOR.on('instanceReady', function (ev) {
// Create a new command with the desired exec function
var overridecmd = new CKEDITOR.command(editor, {
exec: function(editor){
// Replace this with your desired save button code
alert(editor.document.getBody().getHtml());
}
});
// Replace the old save's exec function with the new one
ev.editor.commands.save.exec = overridecmd.exec;
});
CKEDITOR.replace('CKEditor1');
</script>
