backpack\ckeditor-field

A CKEditor field type for Laravel Backpack, using the CKEditor WYSIWYG editor.

Install

To install this package via Composer, run this command:

composer require backpack/ckeditor-field

Usage

In your CrudController, use the CKEditor field type:

CRUD::field('content')->type('ckeditor');

You can customize most of CKEditor's options:

CRUD::field([   // CKEditor
    'name'          => 'content',
    'type'          => 'ckeditor',

    // optional:
    'options'       => [
        'autoGrow_minHeight'   => 200,
        'autoGrow_bottomSpace' => 50,
        'removePlugins'        => [],
    ],

    // elfinder configuration options when using [the file manager package](https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/FileManager)
    'elfinderOptions' => [], // it's the same as `true`, will enable with default options, by default is: `false`
]);

If you'd like to be able to select files from elFinder, you need to install Backpack/FileManager package and enable it in your field: elfinderOptions => true.

Custom Builds

Custom builds are not supported at the moment. If you need a custom build, you should publish the field to your own resources/views/vendor/backpack/ckeditor-field/fields/ckeditor.blade.php and modify it as needed.
