FindAndReplaceUtils (find-and-replace)

@ckeditor/ckeditor5-find-and-replace/src/findandreplaceutils

Properties

• readonly inherited

  editor : Editormodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#editor

  See source

  The editor instance.

  Note that most editors implement the ui property. However, editors with an external UI (i.e. Bootstrap-based) or a headless editor may not have this property or throw an error when accessing it.

  Because of above, to make plugins more universal, it is recommended to split features into:

  • The "editing" part that uses the Editor class without ui property.
  • The "UI" part that uses the Editor class and accesses ui property.

• inherited observable

  isEnabled : booleanmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#isEnabled

  See source

  Flag indicating whether a plugin is enabled or disabled. A disabled plugin will not transform text.

  Plugin can be simply disabled like that:

  // Disable the plugin so that no toolbars are visible.
  editor.plugins.get( 'TextTransformation' ).isEnabled = false;
  

  You can also use forceDisabled method.

  bind( bindProperties ) → MultiBindChainmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#bind:MANY_BIND

  See source

  Binds observable properties to other objects implementing the Observable interface.

  Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of property bindings with some additional examples.

  Consider two objects: a button and an associated command (both Observable).

  A simple property binding could be as follows:

  button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled' );
  

  or even shorter:

  button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );
  

  which works in the following way:

  • button.isEnabled instantly equals command.isEnabled,
  • whenever command.isEnabled changes, button.isEnabled will immediately reflect its value.

  Note: To release the binding, use unbind.

  You can also "rename" the property in the binding by specifying the new name in the to() chain:

  button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isWorking' );
  

  It is possible to bind more than one property at a time to shorten the code:

  button.bind( 'isEnabled', 'value' ).to( command );
  

  which corresponds to:

  button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );
  button.bind( 'value' ).to( command );
  

  The binding can include more than one observable, combining multiple data sources in a custom callback:

  button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled', ui, 'isVisible',
  	( isCommandEnabled, isUIVisible ) => isCommandEnabled && isUIVisible );
  

  Using a custom callback allows processing the value before passing it to the target property:

  button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'value', value => value === 'heading1' );
  

  It is also possible to bind to the same property in an array of observables. To bind a button to multiple commands (also Observables) so that each and every one of them must be enabled for the button to become enabled, use the following code:

  button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).toMany( [ commandA, commandB, commandC ], 'isEnabled',
  	( isAEnabled, isBEnabled, isCEnabled ) => isAEnabled && isBEnabled && isCEnabled );
  

  Parameters

  bindProperties : Array<'off' | 'on' | 'once' | 'listenTo' | 'stopListening' | 'fire' | 'delegate' | 'stopDelegating' | 'set' | 'bind' | 'unbind' | 'decorate' | 'destroy' | 'isEnabled' | 'editor' | 'forceDisabled' | 'clearForceDisabled' | 'updateFindResultFromRange' | 'rangeToText' | 'findByTextCallback'>

  Observable properties that will be bound to other observable(s).

  Returns

  MultiBindChain

  The bind chain with the to() and toMany() methods.

  Clears forced disable previously set through forceDisabled. See forceDisabled.

  Parameters

  id : string

  Unique identifier, equal to the one passed in forceDisabled call.

  Returns

  void

• inherited

  decorate( methodName ) → voidmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#decorate

  See source

  Turns the given methods of this object into event-based ones. This means that the new method will fire an event (named after the method) and the original action will be plugged as a listener to that event.

  Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of decorating methods with some additional examples.

  Decorating the method does not change its behavior (it only adds an event), but it allows to modify it later on by listening to the method's event.

  For example, to cancel the method execution the event can be stopped:

  class Foo extends ObservableMixin() {
  	constructor() {
  		super();
  		this.decorate( 'method' );
  	}
  
  	method() {
  		console.log( 'called!' );
  	}
  }
  
  const foo = new Foo();
  foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => {
  	evt.stop();
  }, { priority: 'high' } );
  
  foo.method(); // Nothing is logged.
  

  Note: The high priority listener has been used to execute this particular callback before the one which calls the original method (which uses the "normal" priority).

  It is also possible to change the returned value:

  foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => {
  	evt.return = 'Foo!';
  } );
  
  foo.method(); // -> 'Foo'
  

  Finally, it is possible to access and modify the arguments the method is called with:

  method( a, b ) {
  	console.log( `${ a }, ${ b }`  );
  }
  
  // ...
  
  foo.on( 'method', ( evt, args ) => {
  	args[ 0 ] = 3;
  
  	console.log( args[ 1 ] ); // -> 2
  }, { priority: 'high' } );
  
  foo.method( 1, 2 ); // -> '3, 2'
  

  Parameters

  methodName : 'off' | 'on' | 'once' | 'listenTo' | 'stopListening' | 'fire' | 'delegate' | 'stopDelegating' | 'set' | 'bind' | 'unbind' | 'decorate' | 'destroy' | 'isEnabled' | 'editor' | 'forceDisabled' | 'clearForceDisabled' | 'updateFindResultFromRange' | 'rangeToText' | 'findByTextCallback'

  Name of the method to decorate.

  Returns

  void

• inherited

  delegate( events ) → EmitterMixinDelegateChainmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#delegate

  See source

  Delegates selected events to another Emitter. For instance:

  emitterA.delegate( 'eventX' ).to( emitterB );
  emitterA.delegate( 'eventX', 'eventY' ).to( emitterC );
  

  then eventX is delegated (fired by) emitterB and emitterC along with data:

  emitterA.fire( 'eventX', data );
  

  and eventY is delegated (fired by) emitterC along with data:

  emitterA.fire( 'eventY', data );
  

  Parameters

  events : Array<string>

  Event names that will be delegated to another emitter.

  Returns

  EmitterMixinDelegateChain

• inherited

  destroy() → voidmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#destroy

  See source

  Destroys the plugin.

  Note: This method is optional. A plugin instance does not need to have it defined.

  Returns

  void

• findByTextCallback( searchTerm, options = { [options.matchCase], [options.wholeWords] } ) → ( object ) => Array<ResultType>module:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#findByTextCallback

  See source

  Creates a text matching callback for a specified search term and matching options.

  Parameters

  searchTerm : string

  The search term.

  options : object

  Matching options. - options.matchCase=false If set to true letter casing will be ignored. - options.wholeWords=false If set to true only whole words that match callbackOrText will be matched.

  Properties

  [ options.matchCase ] : boolean

  [ options.wholeWords ] : boolean

  Returns

  ( object ) => Array<ResultType>

• inherited

  fire( eventOrInfo, args ) → GetEventInfo<TEvent>[ 'return' ]module:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#fire

  See source

  Fires an event, executing all callbacks registered for it.

  The first parameter passed to callbacks is an EventInfo object, followed by the optional args provided in the fire() method call.

  Type parameters

  TEvent : extends BaseEvent

  The type describing the event. See BaseEvent.

  Parameters

  eventOrInfo : GetNameOrEventInfo<TEvent>

  The name of the event or EventInfo object if event is delegated.

  args : TEvent[ 'args' ]

  Additional arguments to be passed to the callbacks.

  Returns

  GetEventInfo<TEvent>[ 'return' ]

  By default the method returns undefined. However, the return value can be changed by listeners through modification of the evt.return's property (the event info is the first param of every callback).

• inherited

  forceDisabled( id ) → voidmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#forceDisabled

  See source

  Disables the plugin.

  Plugin may be disabled by multiple features or algorithms (at once). When disabling a plugin, unique id should be passed (e.g. feature name). The same identifier should be used when enabling back the plugin. The plugin becomes enabled only after all features enabled it back.

  Disabling and enabling a plugin:

  plugin.isEnabled; // -> true
  plugin.forceDisabled( 'MyFeature' );
  plugin.isEnabled; // -> false
  plugin.clearForceDisabled( 'MyFeature' );
  plugin.isEnabled; // -> true
  

  Plugin disabled by multiple features:

  plugin.forceDisabled( 'MyFeature' );
  plugin.forceDisabled( 'OtherFeature' );
  plugin.clearForceDisabled( 'MyFeature' );
  plugin.isEnabled; // -> false
  plugin.clearForceDisabled( 'OtherFeature' );
  plugin.isEnabled; // -> true
  

  Multiple disabling with the same identifier is redundant:

  plugin.forceDisabled( 'MyFeature' );
  plugin.forceDisabled( 'MyFeature' );
  plugin.clearForceDisabled( 'MyFeature' );
  plugin.isEnabled; // -> true
  

  Note: some plugins or algorithms may have more complex logic when it comes to enabling or disabling certain plugins, so the plugin might be still disabled after clearForceDisabled was used.

  Parameters

  id : string

  Unique identifier for disabling. Use the same id when enabling back the plugin.

  Returns

  void

• inherited

  listenTo( emitter, event, callback, [ options ] ) → voidmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#listenTo:BASE_EMITTER

  See source

  Registers a callback function to be executed when an event is fired in a specific (emitter) object.

  Events can be grouped in namespaces using :. When namespaced event is fired, it additionally fires all callbacks for that namespace.

  // myEmitter.on( ... ) is a shorthand for myEmitter.listenTo( myEmitter, ... ).
  myEmitter.on( 'myGroup', genericCallback );
  myEmitter.on( 'myGroup:myEvent', specificCallback );
  
  // genericCallback is fired.
  myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup' );
  // both genericCallback and specificCallback are fired.
  myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup:myEvent' );
  // genericCallback is fired even though there are no callbacks for "foo".
  myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup:foo' );
  

  An event callback can stop the event and set the return value of the fire method.

  Type parameters

  TEvent : extends BaseEvent

  The type describing the event. See BaseEvent.

  Parameters

  emitter : Emitter

  The object that fires the event.

  event : TEvent[ 'name' ]

• rangeToText( range ) → stringmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#rangeToText

  See source

  Returns text representation of a range. The returned text length should be the same as range length. In order to achieve this, this function will replace inline elements (text-line) as new line character ("\n").

  Parameters

  range : Range

  The model range.

  Returns

  string

  The text content of the provided range.

• inherited

  set( values ) → voidmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#set:OBJECT

  See source

  Creates and sets the value of an observable properties of this object. Such a property becomes a part of the state and is observable.

  It accepts a single object literal containing key/value pairs with properties to be set.

  This method throws the observable-set-cannot-override error if the observable instance already has a property with the given property name. This prevents from mistakenly overriding existing properties and methods, but means that foo.set( 'bar', 1 ) may be slightly slower than foo.bar = 1.

  In TypeScript, those properties should be declared in class using declare keyword. In example:

  public declare myProp1: number;
  public declare myProp2: string;
  
  constructor() {
  	this.set( {
  		'myProp1: 2,
  		'myProp2: 'foo'
  	} );
  }
  

  Parameters

  values : object

  An object with name=>value pairs.

  Returns

  void

• inherited

  set( name, value ) → voidmodule:find-and-replace/findandreplaceutils~FindAndReplaceUtils#set:KEY_VALUE
