Code Edit Widget With Language Tooling

  • In order for users to consume the Orion editor with the complete language tooling, a new widget called "Code Edit" has been introduced.
  • The widget consists of the widget core and all language tooling plugins.
  • The widget is delivered as a zip file containing all the structural folders and files, making the core and the plugins all work together.
  • Users consume the widget core directly. The language tooling plugins are only loaded when needed.
  • The widget core is available both unminified, for debugging purpose and minified, for better loading time.
  • The plugins are only available in minified version.

Getting the Build

  • Users can grab the most recent "Code Edit" widget from the nightly builds or they can use the latest release available on the Orion download page.

Nightly builds & Releases

  • From the Orion build page, users can click on a nightly build or a release and they will be presented with a page that now includes the code edit widget: the built-codeEdit.zip file contains all the files for you to embed the widget.

Using the Build

You can simply download the zip file and unzip it into a folder on your web server. Below is a complete run-able html file that you can host in your web server as a demo on how to consume the widget. Assume that you have created a folder named editorBuild under where your html file lives. Follow the 3 steps below and you can run the demo in just a few minutes.

  • Download the code edit build and unzip it under the editorBuild folder.
  • Create a demo.html and paste the example contents into the demo.html.
  • Run the demo.html.

Your demo page should look like this, if you use CTRL+space as content assist after the page is loaded.
