---

- Inside your Strapi app, add the package:

```bash
npm install @jhoward1994/strapi-plugin-ckeditor
```

or

```bash
yarn add @jhoward1994/strapi-plugin-ckeditor
```

- Then run build:

```bash
npm run build
```

or

```bash
yarn build
```

## <a id="configuration"></a>⚙️ Configuration

---

The plugin uses [**Strapi custom fields API**](https://docs.strapi.io/developer-docs/latest/development/custom-fields.html#registering-a-custom-field-on-the-server) and [**CKEditor dll build**](https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/installation/advanced/alternative-setups/dll-builds.html)

The plugin configuration should be defined in the `/config/ckeditor.txt` file.

It's highly recommended to explore [**the official ckeditor documentation**](https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/features/index.html)

Content of ckeditor.txt will be passed into the script tag during the initialization process.

## <a id="contributing"></a>🛠 Contributing

---

This section covers the way how to configure your environment if you want to contribute to this package.

### Setting up the environment

In order to start making changes in the plugin you first need to install Strapi infrastructure on top of the plugin repository.

```
npx create-strapi-app --quickstart strapi
cd strapi
```

By default Strapi does not create plugins folder so we need to create it.

```
mkdir -p src/plugins
```

Now we should clone this repository so we can work on it.

```
git clone git@github.com:nshenderov/strapi-plugin-ckeditor.git src/plugins/strapi-plugin-ckeditor
```

Let's add an entry inside `./package.json` file so, we won't need to use `yarn` inside plugin itself.

```
"workspaces": ["./src/plugins/strapi-plugin-ckeditor"]
```

Install dependencies:

```
yarn install
```

Now we need to register plugin so strapi can use it. In order to do that we need
to create (if not already created) `./config/plugins.js` file and add entry to it.

```
module.exports = ({ env }) => ({
  ckeditor5: {
    enabled: true,
    resolve: "./src/plugins/strapi-plugin-ckeditor"
  },
});
```

Rebuild the project and start the server:

```
yarn build
yarn develop
```

## <a id="requirements"></a>⚠️ Requirements
