Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### Require package via composer

[](#require-package-via-composer)

```
composer require amiirarsallan/laravel-cksource

```

### Publishing assets

[](#publishing-assets)

Run this artisan command inside your main laravel project directory

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-cksource

```

### Note

[](#note)

**By running this command you'll have a new directory named `files` inside your laravel project `storage` directory, this directory will used for CKFinder uploads path.**

### Configurating CKFinder

[](#configurating-ckfinder)

Open CKFinder `config.php` file available in this path `/public/vendor/amiirarsalan/laravel-cksource/src/assets/ckfinder/`in line 29 Replace **YOUR\_APP\_KEY** with your own application key stores in .env file of project, without **base64:** flag

```
$config['authentication'] = function () {
    $APP_KEY = "YOUR_APP_KEY";

```

Then, we have the most important part for authentication,

1- **Set Cookie to authenticate user in login**

In your user login process you have to redirect user after successful login attempt, so by that way you have to redirect with a cookie set, with command `withCookie()` and the cookie should be named **allowCkfinder** with **true** value, and the code snippet should be something like this

```
//Attempt to login user
if (!auth()->attempt($credentials, request('remember'))) {
    return back()->withErrors([
        'message' => 'Please check your credentials.'
    ]);
}

//Redirect to panel
return redirect()->withCookie(cookie()->forever('allowCkfinder', true));

```

2- **Unset Cookie while user logout**

To make the process works completely, you have to remove the cookie while user logout, and the snippet should be something like this

```
//Log out the user
auth()->logout();

//Redirect to index
return redirect()->withCookie(cookie()->forget('allowCkfinder'));

```

Updating
--------

[](#updating)

### Update composer at first level

[](#update-composer-at-first-level)

```
composer update amiirarsallan/laravel-cksource

```

### Publish new assets with flag --force to overwrite existing files

[](#publish-new-assets-with-flag---force-to-overwrite-existing-files)

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-cksource --force

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Package generates new custom Laravel Blade syntax,

```
@ckeditor( [arg1](textarea name), [arg2](textarea id), [arg3]{optional}(ckeditor custom configs)  )

```

This syntax creates a new `` HTML element in your view and its `name` and `id` attributes will populate trough first two arguments of `@ckeditor` syntax.

3rd argument will be the CKFinder custom configurations.

**NOTE**CKFinder and browse server button of CKEditor will be available while `Auth::check()` return true result, so it means when a user authenticated then CKFinder will be enabled.

Notes
-----

[](#notes)

### Disable CKFinder activation via Laravel Auth (NOT RECOMMENDED)

[](#disable-ckfinder-activation-via-laravel-auth-not-recommended)

To disable CKFinder activation via Laravel Auth, just go trough this path in your laravel project

```
/public/vendor/amiirarsallan/laravel-cksource/src/assets/ckfinder/

```

and open config.php file inside this directory, then remove the whole code `$config['authentication']` in line **28**and just write

```
$config['authentication'] = function () {
    return true;
};

```

### Invalid Request | Interface 'CKSource\\CKFinder\\Request\\Transformer\\TransformerInterface' not found

[](#invalid-request--interface-cksourceckfinderrequesttransformertransformerinterface-not-found)

This error usually occures while you hit Browse Server button from CKEditor dialog, to fix this you have to Open CKFinder config `/public/vendor/amiirarsalan/laravel-cksource/src/assets/ckfinder/config.php`and comment line 13, 14

```
// Production
// error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT);
// ini_set('display_errors', 0);

```

and uncomment line 17, 18

```
// Development
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);

```

Save the config file and try re-open the Browse Server dialog from CKEditor, If the error shown on screen display something like this,

**Fatal error: Interface 'CKSource\\CKFinder\\Request\\Transformer\\TransformerInterface' not found in X:\\X\\public\\vendor\\amiirarsallan\\laravel-cksource\\src\\assets\\ckfinder\\core\\connector\\php\\vendor\\cksource\\ckfinder\\src\\CKSource\\CKFinder\\Request\\Transformer\\JsonTransformer.php on line 24**

Go to the path

`X:\X\public\vendor\amiirarsallan\laravel-cksource\src\assets\ckfinder\core\connector\php\vendor\cksource\ckfinder\src\CKSource\CKFinder\Request\Transformer\JsonTransformer.php`

and open `JsonTransformer.php` file, on line 24, change the code like this

```
class JsonTransformer //implements TransformerInterface
{

```

This will fix the Browse Server dialog.
