ckeditor - How to add a custom button to the toolbar that calls a JavaScript function?

Question

I'd like to add a button to the toolbar that calls a JavaScript function like Tada()?

Any ideas on how to add this?

Answer 1

Also there is a nice way allowing one to add the button without creating plugin.

html:

<textarea id="container">How are you!</textarea>

javascript:

editor = CKEDITOR.replace('container'); // bind editor

editor.addCommand("mySimpleCommand", { // create named command
    exec: function(edt) {
        alert(edt.getData());
    }
});

editor.ui.addButton('SuperButton', { // add new button and bind our command
    label: "Click me",
    command: 'mySimpleCommand',
    toolbar: 'insert',
    icon: 'https://avatars1.githubusercontent.com/u/5500999?v=2&s=16'
});
