TinyMCE Add Code Sample Example

Originally posted @ https://codeanddeploy.com visit and download the sample code: https://codeanddeploy.com/blog/javascript/tinymce-add-code-sample-example

In this post, I'm sharing how to add code sample examples in TinyMCE. If you are doing a blog functionality that same with codeanddeploy.com that is able to share a formated code from any programming language then this is for you.

With the use of codesample plugin, you can able to do it. Just register it to your TinyMCE configuration plugins.

See the below example:

plugins: [
    "codesample"
],
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Then add these programming options:

codesample_languages: [
    {text: 'HTML/XML', value: 'markup'},
    {text: 'JavaScript', value: 'javascript'},
    {text: 'CSS', value: 'css'},
    {text: 'PHP', value: 'php'},
    {text: 'Ruby', value: 'ruby'},
    {text: 'Python', value: 'python'},
    {text: 'Java', value: 'java'},
    {text: 'C', value: 'c'},
    {text: 'C#', value: 'csharp'},
    {text: 'C++', value: 'cpp'}
],
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

After adding that you will see a Code sample on the hovering Insert menu.

tinymce-add-code-sample

When click the Code sample will display the dialog box then select your programming language to format then add your code.

tinymce-add-code-sample

Then click Save.

Then you will see the formated code:

tinymce-add-code-sample

Here is the complete code:
