- \title WebEngine Markdown Editor Example
- \ingroup webengine-widgetexamples
- \brief Demonstrates how to integrate a web engine in a hybrid desktop
- application.
-
- \image markdowneditor-example.png
-
- \e {Markdown Editor} demonstrates how to use QWebChannel and JavaScript
- libraries to provide a rich text preview tool for a custom markup language.
-
- \l{http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/}{Markdown} is a lightweight
- markup language with a plain text formatting syntax.
- Some services, such as \l{http://github.com}{github}, acknowledge the
- format, and render the content as rich text when viewed in a browser.
-
- The Markdown Editor main window is split into an editor and a preview area.
- The editor supports the Markdown syntax and is implemented by using
- QPlainTextEdit. The document is rendered as rich text in the preview area,
- which is implemented by using QWebEngineView. To render the text, the
- Markdown text is converted to HTML format with the help of a JavaScript
- library inside the web engine. The preview is updated from the editor
- through QWebChannel.
-
- \include examples-run.qdocinc
-
- \section1 Exposing Document Text
-
- Because we expose the current Markdown text to be rendered to the web engine
- through QWebChannel, we need to somehow make the current text available
- through the Qt metatype system. This is done by using a dedicated
- \c Document class that exposes the document text as a \c{Q_PROPERTY}:
-
- \quotefromfile webenginewidgets/markdowneditor/document.h
- \skipto class Document
- \printto #endif
-
- The \c Document class wraps a QString to be set on the C++ side with
- the \c setText() method and exposes it at runtime as a \c text property
- with a \c textChanged signal.
-
- We define the \c setText method as follows:
-
- \quotefromfile webenginewidgets/markdowneditor/document.cpp
- \skipto Document::setText
- \printuntil
-
- \section1 Previewing Text
-
- We implement our own \c PreviewPage class that publicly inherits from
- \c QWebEnginePage:
-
- \quotefromfile webenginewidgets/markdowneditor/previewpage.h
- \skipto class PreviewPage
- \printto #endif
-
- We reimplement the virtual \c acceptNavigationRequest method to
- stop the page from navigating away from the current document. Instead,
- we redirect external links to the system browser:
-
- \quotefromfile webenginewidgets/markdowneditor/previewpage.cpp
- \skipto acceptNavigationRequest
- \printuntil
-
- \section1 Creating the Main Window
-
- The \c MainWindow class inherits the QMainWindow class:
-
- \quotefromfile webenginewidgets/markdowneditor/mainwindow.h
- \skipto class MainWindow :
- \printto endif
-
- The class declares private slots that match the actions in the menu,
- as well as the \c isModified() helper method.
-
- The actual layout of the main window is specified in a \c .ui file.
- The widgets and actions are available at runtime in the \c ui member
- variable.
-
- \c m_filePath holds the file path to the currently loaded document.
- \c m_content is an instance of the \c Document class.
-
- The actual setup of the different objects is done in the \c MainWindow
- constructor:
-
- \quotefromfile webenginewidgets/markdowneditor/mainwindow.cpp
- \skipto MainWindow::MainWindow
- \printto PreviewPage
-
- The constructor first calls \c setupUi to construct the widgets and menu
- actions according to the UI file. The text editor font is set to one
- with a fixed character width, and the QWebEngineView widget is told not
- to show a context menu.
-
- \printto connect
-
- Here the constructor makes sure our custom
- \c PreviewPage is used by the QWebEngineView instance in \c{ui->preview}.
-
- \printto ui->preview
-
- Here the \c textChanged signal of the editor is connected to a lambda that
- updates the text in \c m_content. This object is then exposed to the JS side
- by \c QWebChannel under the name \c{content}.
-
- \printto connect
-
- Now we can actually load the \e index.html file from the
- resources. For more information about the file, see
- \l{Creating an Index File}.
-
- \printto defaultTextFile
-
- The menu items are connected to the corresponding member slots. The
- \uicontrol Save item is activated or deactivated depending on whether
- the user has edited the content.
-
- \printuntil }
-
- Finally, we load a default document \e default.md from the resources.
-
- \section1 Creating an Index File
-
- \quotefile webenginewidgets/markdowneditor/resources/index.html
-
- In the \e index.html, we load a custom stylesheet and two JavaScript
- libraries. \l{http://kevinburke.bitbucket.org/markdowncss/}{markdown.css} is
- a markdown-friendly stylesheet created by Kevin Burke.
- \l{https://github.com/chjj/marked}{marked.js} is a markdown parser and
- compiler designed for speed written by Christopher Jeffrey and
- \e qwebchannel.js is part of the \l{QWebChannel} module.
-
- In the \c <body> element we first define a \c placeholder element, and
- make it available as a JavaScript variable. We then define the \c updateText
- helper method that updates the content of \c placeholder with the HTML
- that the JavaScript method \c marked() returns.
-
- Finally, we set up the web channel to access the \c content proxy object
- and make sure that \c updateText() is called whenever \c content.text
- changes.
