    For more information visit sceditor.com

    Usage

    Include the SCEditor JavaScript:

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="minified/themes/default.min.css" />
    <script src="minified/sceditor.min.js"></script>
    <script src="minified/formats/bbcode.js"></script>
    <script src="minified/formats/xhtml.js"></script>
    

    Then to convert a textarea into SCEditor, simply do:

    var textarea = document.getElementById('id-of-textarea');
    
    sceditor.create(textarea, {
        format: 'xhtml',
        style: 'minified/themes/content/default.min.css'
    });
    

    or for a BBCode WYSIWYG editor do:

    var textarea = document.getElementById('id-of-textarea');
    
    sceditor.create(textarea, {
        format: 'bbcode',
        style: 'minified/themes/content/default.min.css'
    });
    

    Finally, to get the contents of the editor:

    var textarea = document.getElementById("id-of-textarea");
    
    sceditor.instance(textarea).val();
    

    Options

    For a full list of options, see the options documentation.

    Building and testing

    You will need Grunt installed to run the build/tests. To install Grunt run:

    npm install -g grunt-cli
    

    Next, to install the SCEditor dev dependencies run:

    npm install
    

    That's it! You can now build and test SCEditor with the following commands:

    # Minify the JS and convert the LESS to CSS
    grunt build
    
    # Run the linter, unit tests and coverage
    grunt test
    
    # Creates the final distributable ZIP file
    grunt release
    

    You can also run the dev server to test changes without having to do a full build by running:

    npm run dev
    

    and then going to http://localhost:9000/tests/
