PrimeFaces Extensions CKEditor: cannot access custom config

I need my pe:ckEditor to load custom config, but I have been unsuccessful in this matter for some time, I will welcome any suggestions how to make it work.
(I need it functional because I have this problem: PrimeFaces Extensions CKEditor: attempts to set encoding to UTF-8 unsuccessful, which might be solved by this https://ckeditor.com/old/forums/CKEditor-3.x/utf-8-ckeditor or something like this https://ckeditor.com/old/forums/Support/Change-charset-UTF-8)
The custom config file is in the same folder as my XHTML file in which the pe:ckEditor is.
The custom config content:
CKEDITOR.editorConfig = function( config ) {
config.uiColor = '#AADC6E';
config.toolbar = [
{ name: 'basicstyles', items: [ 'Bold', 'Italic', 'Underline', 'Strike', 'Subscript', 'Superscript', '-', 'RemoveFormat' ] },
{ name: 'paragraph', items: [ 'NumberedList', 'BulletedList', '-', 'Outdent', 'Indent', '-', 'Blockquote', '-', 'JustifyLeft', 'JustifyCenter', 'JustifyRight', 'JustifyBlock'] },
'/',
{ name: 'links', items: [ 'Link', 'Unlink' ] },
{ name: 'styles', items: [ 'Styles', 'Format', 'Font', 'FontSize' ] },
'/',
{ name: 'colors', items: [ 'TextColor', 'BGColor' ] },
{ name: 'insert', items: [ 'Table', 'HorizontalRule', 'SpecialChar'] },
{ name: 'tools', items: [ 'ShowBlocks' ] },
{ name: 'document', items: [ 'Source' ] },
];
};
I tried:
<h:outputScript name="ckEditor.js" library="js"></h:outputScript>
<pe:ckEditor id="editor" customConfig="ckEditor.js"></pe:ckEditor>
<script type="text/javascript">
CKEDITOR.config.customConfig = 'ckEditor.js';
CKEDITOR.replace('editor');
</script>
And:
<h:outputScript name="ckEditor.js" library="js"></h:outputScript>
<pe:ckEditor id="editor" customConfig="ckEditor.js"></pe:ckEditor>
And:
<pe:ckEditor id="editor"></pe:ckEditor>
<script type="text/javascript">
CKEDITOR.config.customConfig = 'ckEditor.js';
CKEDITOR.replace('editor');
</script>
And:
<pe:ckEditor id="editor" customConfig="ckEditor.js"></pe:ckEditor>
And:
<pe:ckEditor id="editor" customConfig="./ckEditor.js"></pe:ckEditor>
And (full path of the files is project/WebContent/pages/inc/ckEditor.js and project/WebContent/pages/inc/emailEditor.xhtml):
<pe:ckEditor id="editor" customConfig="project/WebContent/pages/inc/ckEditor.js"></pe:ckEditor>
And:
<pe:ckEditor id="editor" customConfig="/project/WebContent/pages/inc/ckEditor.js"></pe:ckEditor>
And (because of https://forum.primefaces.org/viewtopic.php?t=31334):
<pe:ckEditor id="editor" customConfig="#{request.contextPath}/ckEditor.js"></pe:ckEditor>
When I entered the details from the custom config file into the <script> below the <pe:ckEditor>, it worked, but that is unfortunately not a solution for my case as I use the editor on many pages and need its settings to be stored at one place only.
Also, when I was googling, I found some suggestion that I should place the directions for the custom config into the default config file, but I have not found any default config file in my project, so that is unfortunately not an option for me.
I did google, read documentation at PrimeFaces Extensions page and CKEditor page, read similar questions at PrimeFaces forum, CKEditor forum and here, but nothing has worked yet.
PrimeFaces Extensions - version 7.0.2
PrimeFaces - version 7.0.7

The customConfig attribute on pe:ckEditor is a URL.
So just put your JS somewhere, where it's a accessible via the browser.
If its accessible (for example) as localhost:8080/myfolder/ckeditor.js, it should work correctly when you set customConfig to '#{request.contextPath}myFolder/ckeditor.js'

How to use Froala editor as inline option in Ionic?

I have installed Froala editor in Ionic. It is working properly. In my **home.html** I have added this line of code
<div [froalaEditor]>Hello, Froala!</div>
It looks like this:
How can I use it inline in Ionic?
Their documentations guides for js but I don't know how to get the same implemented in Ionic, below is their instruction
HTML
<div id="froala-editor1">
<p>This is the first editor instance</p>
<img src="/assets/editor/docs/photo14.jpg" class="fr-fil" alt="book" width="150"/>
</div>
JS
<script>
$(function() {
$('div#froala-editor1').froalaEditor({
toolbarInline: true,
toolbarButtons: ['bold', 'italic', 'underline', 'strikeThrough', 'color', 'emoticons', '-', 'paragraphFormat', 'align', 'formatOL', 'formatUL', 'indent', 'outdent', '-', 'insertImage', 'insertLink', 'insertFile', 'insertVideo', 'undo', 'redo']
})
});
</script>

The Ionic implementation is using Angular. See https://github.com/froala/angular-froala-wysiwyg#usage. You should basically do something like this in your component and then pass the options to the directive.
public options: Object = {
toolbarInline: true,
toolbarButtons: ['bold', 'italic', 'underline', 'strikeThrough', 'color', 'emoticons', '-', 'paragraphFormat', 'align', 'formatOL', 'formatUL', 'indent', 'outdent', '-', 'insertImage', 'insertLink', 'insertFile', 'insertVideo', 'undo', 'redo']
}
<div [froalaEditor]='options'>Hello, Froala!</div>

Froala editor image edit option now showing

I was using Froala edit as rich text editor ,
$(notesSelector).on('froalaEditor.initialized', function (e, editor) {
//set original html after loading
froalaInitialHtml = $(notesSelector).froalaEditor('html.get');
});
$(notesSelector).froalaEditor({
key: 'XXXXXXXXXX',
toolbarButtons: ['bold', 'italic', 'underline', 'strikeThrough', 'subscript', 'superscript', 'fontFamily', 'fontSize', '|', 'color', 'emoticons', 'inlineStyle', 'paragraphStyle', '|', 'paragraphFormat', 'align', 'formatOL', 'formatUL', 'outdent', 'indent', 'quote', 'insertHR', '-', 'insertLink', 'insertImage', 'insertVideo', 'insertFile', 'insertTable', 'undo', 'redo', 'clearFormatting', 'selectAll', 'html'],
toolbarButtonsXS: ['undo', 'redo' , '-', 'bold', 'italic', 'underline','insertImage'],
imageEditButtons:['imageInfo', 'imageAlign' ],
toolbarSticky: true, });`
i was expecting image context menu , but they don't appear when image is selected

There are 2 possible reasons why the image popup is not showing:
You are not including the image plugin. Make sure you include the plugins/image.min.js file and plugins/image.min.css file.
There are other elements on the page which have a higher zIndex. This is likely to happen when you are using the editor inside a modal. To overcome it, set the editor zIndex option to a higher value.

In Ckeditor, delete br tags before and after the text

When the users paste text in the editor (for example), they don't delete the spaces before and after the text.
How to remove these br tags? It would work like the trim() function in php.
My code is:
CKEDITOR.replace('contenido',
{
language: 'es',
resize_enabled: true,
pasteFromWordRemoveFontStyles: true,
pasteFromWordPromptCleanup: true,
forcePasteAsPlainText: true,
ignoreEmptyParagraph: true,
removeFormatAttributes: true,
autoParagraph: false,
fillEmptyBlocks: false,
enterMode: CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR,
toolbar: [
['Bold', 'Italic', 'Underline', 'Strike'],
['Cut', 'Copy', 'PasteText', '-', 'Scayt'],
['Undo', 'Redo', '-', 'Find', 'Replace', '-', 'SelectAll', 'RemoveFormat'], ['CreateDiv', '-', 'ShowBlocks'],
['NumberedList', 'BulletedList', '-', 'Outdent', 'Indent', 'Blockquote'],
['Link', 'Unlink', 'Anchor'],
['Image', 'Table', 'HorizontalRule', 'SpecialChar'], ['Source'],['Maximize']
]
});

To be able to use a built in PHP method to do this for you take a look at this:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.strip-tags.php
You can use the second pram of the method to list any html type tags you don't want trimmed away. So in theory if you only want "" removed you could give it a list of every tag but that one.
Hope this helps.

I can't add the Source button to CKEditor 4's toolbar

I'm having trouble adding the Source button to CKEditor 4's toolbar. I just downloaded the new CKEditor today.
I'm using a config object named oConfig:
oConfig.toolbar = 'Custom';
oConfig.toolbar_Custom = [
['Bold', 'Source', 'Italic']
];
The toolbar shows up with only the Bold and Italic buttons. This example from CKEditor's docs tells me it should be working.

There are two reasons why it may be happening:
You have downloaded the basic package, where the sourcearea plugin is not included.
You are using CKEditor in inline mode. Source mode isn't available in inline mode yet.

Future googlers, for CKEditor v4.2 now there is a plugin to view source code in inline editing mode.
http://ckeditor.com/addon/sourcedialog

Here is a plugin I've made:
First of all, inside ckeditor/plugins/ create a new folder called "htmlSource", inside it create a file called "plugin.js" and inside this file paste the code below:
//-----------------------------Start Plugin Code-------------------------
plugInName = 'htmlSource';
CKEDITOR.plugins.add(plugInName,
{
init: function (editor) {
editor.addCommand('htmlDialog', new CKEDITOR.dialogCommand('htmlDialog'));
editor.ui.addButton(plugInName, {
label: 'Html Source',
icon: 'http://www.example.com/images/btn_html.png',
command: 'htmlDialog'
});
CKEDITOR.dialog.add('htmlDialog', function (editor) {
return {
title: 'Fuente Html',
minWidth: 600,
minHeight: 400,
contents: [
{
id: 'general',
label: 'Settings',
elements:
[
// UI elements of the Settings tab.
{
type: 'textarea',
id: 'contents',
rows: 25,
onShow: function () {
this.setValue(editor.container.$.innerHTML);
},
commit: function (data) { //--I get only the body part in case I paste a complete html
data.contents = this.getValue().replace(/^[\S\s]*<body[^>]*?>/i, "").replace(/<\/body[\S\s]*$/i, "");
}
}
]
}
],
onOk: function () {
var data = {};
this.commitContent(data);
$(editor.container.$).html(data.contents);
},
onCancel: function () {
// console.log('Cancel');
}
};
});
}
});
//--------------------Plugin Code Ends Here--------------------
Please notice that there is a parameter called icon where you must set the url of the Plugin Button Image, I just put an example url ('http://www.example.com/images/btn_html.png') you must use a valid one to see the plugin button.
To set this plugin in the ckeditor toolbar, you must configure it inside the config.js file, for example:
CKEDITOR.editorConfig = function (config) {
config.plugins =
'htmlSource,' + //Here is the plugin
'about,' +
'a11yhelp,' +
'basicstyles,' +
'bidi,' +
.....;
config.toolbar = 'Full'; //Add the plugin to the full toolbar
config.toolbar_Full = //Note that our plugin will be the first button in the toolbar
[
['htmlSource', '-', 'Save', 'NewPage', 'Preview', '-', 'Templates'],
['Cut', 'Copy', 'Paste', 'PasteText', 'PasteFromWord', '-', 'Print', 'SpellChecker', 'Scayt'],
['Undo', 'Redo', '-', 'Find', 'Replace', '-', 'SelectAll', 'RemoveFormat'],
['Form', 'Checkbox', 'Radio', 'TextField', 'Textarea', 'Select', 'Button', 'ImageButton', 'HiddenField'],
['BidiLtr', 'BidiRtl'],
'/',
['Bold', 'Italic', 'Underline', 'Strike', '-', 'Subscript', 'Superscript'],
['NumberedList', 'BulletedList', '-', 'Outdent', 'Indent', 'Blockquote', 'CreateDiv'],
['JustifyLeft', 'JustifyCenter', 'JustifyRight', 'JustifyBlock'],
['Link', 'Unlink', 'Anchor'],
['Image', 'Flash', 'Table', 'HorizontalRule', 'Smiley', 'SpecialChar', 'PageBreak'],
'/',
['Styles', 'Format', 'Font', 'FontSize'],
['TextColor', 'BGColor'],
['Maximize', 'ShowBlocks', '-', 'About']
];
};
I know this is working, so if you have some trouble please tell me.

For me, it helped to use:
config.extraPlugins = 'htmlSource';

For CKEditor 4.1.1, a combination of the above two answers worked for me, although I had to make some minor tweaks. The portion that says "--- Start Plugin here ---" I was able to copy as-is. For the configuration options, I had to use
CKEDITOR.config.extraPlugins = 'htmlSource'; // Notice: "extraPlugins".
CKEDITOR.config.toolbar = 'Full';
CKEDITOR.config.toolbar_Full = ...;
instead of
CKEDITOR.editorConfig = function (config) { ...
Finally, this was all done in inline mode with a plain vanilla installation, i.e. I did not have to download any extra plugins to make this work.

I'm using Julio's plugin with version 4, and needed to make an adjustment to avoid this JS error:
TypeError: $(...).html is not a function
I swapped this line:
$(editor.container.$).html(data.contents);
with this:
// See http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/api/CKEDITOR.editor-method-setData
editor.setData(
data.contents,
function() {
this.checkDirty();
}
);
My guess is Julio's solution requires jQuery, and my approach is the CKEditor approach (or at least closer to it!).
