One of the great features of RainLab Static Pages plugin is the Snippets feature. It allows the developer to hand over management of complex items, such as forms, maps, widgets, etc to the client. For more information on what a Snippet is, please see https://github.com/rainlab/pages-plugin#snippets.

This plugin simply extends the ability to re-use these snippets from any richeditor by providing an additional dropdown to the Froala Richeditor with a list of available snippets (supports partial and component based snippets). It also provides a twig filter to allow the parsing of implemented snippets. Example usage:

{{ content | parseSnippets }}

For documentation regarding creating snippets, please see https://github.com/rainlab/pages-plugin#snippets-created-from-partials

Features

  • Allows Snippets of code to be added from any RichEditor
  • Doesn't require any additional configuration
  • Provides Twig filter to easily parse Snippets
  • PHP and Twig sections work as expected inside Snippets
  • Works with component and partial based Snippets

Content

In a default October 1 installation, this plugin automatically injects itself to appear in the richeditor toolbar.

But if you customize the "Toolbar Buttons" in the "Editor settings", you may want to add snippets in the list, otherwise the button will not appear anymore.

Note for October 2 and 3 users: actually we are not able to inject ourselves in the new richeditor toolbar. You will also need to configure it manually in the CMS settings.

To render the snippets in your theme, you will need to apply the parseSnippets filter to the variables containing richeditor content (see below).

Example usage on generic variable

{{ content | parseSnippets }}

Example usage for RainLab Pages Syntax Fields

Option 1 (offset to variable)

{variable type="richeditor" tab="Content" name="text" label="Text"}{/variable}
{{ text | parseSnippets }}

Option 2 (wrap in apply/filter)

{% apply parseSnippets %}
    {richeditor tab="Content" name="text" label="Text"}{/richeditor}
{% endapply %}

Example usage for Rainlab Pages Content Blocks

{% apply parseSnippets %}
    {% content 'company-details.htm' %}
{% endapply %}

Note this method is useful if you are including a third party component that will output richeditors but you don't want to override its partial.

For example if you are using a richeditor with Rainlab.Blog, you may want to include the component as follow in your CMS page:

{% apply parseSnippets %}
    {% component 'blogPost' %}
{% endapply %}

Example usage in fields.yaml

If you do not set toolbarButtons you will not need to add snippets to the list. Please see example below when customization is required.

html_content:
    type: richeditor
    toolbarButtons: bold|italic|snippets
    size: huge

Pass extra parameters

If needed, you can pass extra parameters to your snippets from your theme like this:

{{ text | parseSnippets({context: 'foo'}) }}
{% apply parseSnippets({context: 'foo'}) %}
    {richeditor name="text" label="Text"}{/richeditor}
{% endapply %}

You will then be able to access context as if it was a component property using $this->property('context').
