How to handle file browse/upload
================================

Before starting, be aware there is nothing which will automatically handle file
browse/upload for you in this bundle (it's out of scope). So, you will need to
implement it by yourself and then configure your browse/upload URIs or routes in
the CKEditor configuration or in the widget.

Supported Options
-----------------

CKEditor natively supports different options according to what you want to
browse or upload. This options should be URIs which point to your controllers.
The available options are:

* filebrowserBrowseUrl
* filebrowserFlashBrowseUrl
* filebrowserImageBrowseUrl
* filebrowserImageBrowseLinkUrl
* filebrowserUploadUrl
* filebrowserFlashUploadUrl
* filebrowserImageUploadUrl

Custom Options
--------------

CKEditor also supports custom options which can be available if you install
plugins. For example, the HTML5 video plugin adds the following options:

* filebrowserVideoBrowseUrl
* filebrowserVideoUploadUrl

To make the bundle aware of these new options, you can configure it globally
in your configuration file:

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/config.yml
    fos_ck_editor:
        filebrowsers:
            - VideoBrowse
            - VideoUpload

Or you can configure it in your widget:

.. code-block:: php

    $builder->add('field', 'ckeditor', array(
        'filebrowsers' => array(
            'VideoUpload',
            'VideoBrowse',
        ),
    ));

Routing Options
---------------

To ease the CKEditor file handling, the bundle adds options which are not in
CKEditor by default. These options are related to the Symfony `Routing Component`_
and allow you to configure routes instead of URIs. For each ``*Url`` option,
three new options are available.

For example, the ``filebrowserBrowseUrl`` option can be generated with these
three new options:

* filebrowserBrowseRoute
* filebrowserBrowseRouteParameters
* filebrowserBrowseRouteType

Static Routing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If your routing is static, you can configure these options globally in your
configuration:

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/config.yml
    fos_ck_editor:
        default_config: my_config
        configs:
            my_config:
                filebrowserBrowseRoute:           "my_route"
                filebrowserBrowseRouteParameters: { slug: "my-slug" }
                filebrowserBrowseRouteType:       0

Or you can configure it your widget:

.. code-block:: php

    $builder->add('field', 'ckeditor', array(
        'config' => array(
            'filebrowserBrowseRoute'           => 'my_route',
            'filebrowserBrowseRouteParameters' => array('slug' => 'my-slug'),
            'filebrowserBrowseRouteType'       => UrlGeneratorInterface::ABSOLUTE_URL,
        ),
    ));

Dynamic Routing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If the static routing does not fit your needs, you can use the
``filebrowser*Handler`` option allowing you to build your own url with a simple
but much more powerful closure and so make it aware of your dependencies:

.. code-block:: php

    // A blog post...
    $post = $manager->find($id);

    $builder->add('field', 'ckeditor', array(
        'config' => array(
            'filebrowserBrowseHandler' => function (RouterInterface $router) use ($post) {
                return $router->generate(
                    'my_route',
                    array('slug' => $post->getSlug()),
                    UrlGeneratorInterface::ABSOLUTE_URL
                );
            },
        ),
    ));

Integration with Other Projects
-------------------------------

If you want to simplify your life, you can directly use other bundles which have
already integrated the concept explain in the previous chapter.

Sonata integration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The `CoopTilleulsCKEditorSonataMediaBundle`_ provides a `SonataMedia`_
integration with this bundle.

ELFinder integration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The `FMElfinderBundle`_ provides a `ELFinder`_ integration with this bundle.
