I'm new to Drupal making a plugin that hooks into the ckeditor widget. I absolutely can't figure out why my implementation of a hook that is defined in ckeditor is never called.
Here are some details
- my module is enabled
- I'm able to use more basic hooks like exceltohtml_plugin instead of exceltohtml_ckeditor_plugin and reach my test statement.
I'm can't think of any more troubleshooting ideas to reveal the issue so any help would be greatly appreciated.
exceltohtml.module
<?php
error_log("TEST: this will print to log");
// implementation of hook_ckeditor_plugin()
function exceltohtml_ckeditor_plugin()
{
error_log("TEST: but this will never run");
return array(
'exceltohtml' => array(
'name' => 'exceltohtml',
'desc' => t('Excel sheet upload'),
'path' => drupal_get_path('module', 'exceltohtml') .'/plugins/exceltohtml',
'buttons' => array(
'excel_to_html' => array('label' => 'Insert spoiler','icon' => '/images/image.gif' ),
)
)
);
}
ckeditor.api.php (the file in ckeditor that Im basing my hook on)
/**
* Hook to register the CKEditor plugin
*/
function hook_ckeditor_plugin() {
return array(
'plugin_name' => array(
// Name of the plugin used to write it.
'name' => 'plugin_name',
// Description of the plugin - it would be displayed in the plugins management section of profile settings.
'desc' => t('Plugin description'),
// The full path to the CKEditor plugins directory, with the trailing slash.
'path' => drupal_get_path('module', 'my_module') . '/plugin_dir/',
'buttons' => array(
'button_name' => array(
'icon' => 'path to button icon',
'label' => 'Button Label',
)
)
)
);
}
