How to retrieve the CKEDITOR.status "ready"?

Question

In my script, I wanted to wait for the CKEDITOR to be in state ready before I let my own instructions go their way. So I consulted the CKEDITOR API and wrote the following condition:

if(CKEDITOR.status == "ready"){  //execute my code when ready } 

However, the status never ever changes to from loaded to status. Apparently I didn even see any other state.

More task specific, I wanted to catch the moment when CKEDITOR has completed modifying the inline replacing of contenteditable="true". That's when I want to go ahead with my JS code.

Any clues?

Answer 1

If you want to execute your code when the API is fully loaded, use CKEDITOR.loaded event:

CKEDITOR.on( 'loaded', function( evt ) {     // your stuff here } ); 

If you want to execute your code when any new instance is ready, use CKEDITOR.instanceReady event:

CKEDITOR.on( 'instanceReady', function( evt ) {     // your stuff here } ); 

If you want to execute your code when a particular instance is ready, then use CKEDITOR.editor.instanceReady event:

CKEDITOR.replace( 'editor', {     on: {         instanceReady: function( evt ) {             // your stuff here         }     } } );

there's no ready status in CKEDITOR, you can use loaded like:

if ( CKEDITOR.status == 'loaded' ) {     // The API can now be fully used.     doSomething(); } 

or use instanceReady, like:

CKEDITOR.on('instanceReady', function(evt){     //ready   //do something });
