Entity Embed allows any entity to be embedded using a text editor.
REQUIREMENTS
------------
Entity Embed requires Drupal 7.37 or later. It has six dependencies.
Drupal core modules
* Filter
Contributed modules
* Chaos Tools
* Editor CKEditor
* Dialog
* Entity
* Entity Reference
* jQuery Update - Configured to use jQuery 1.7 or higher.
INSTALLATION
------------
* Install Entity Embed via the standard Drupal installation process:
'http://drupal.org/node/895232'.
* Configure the jQuery Update module to use jQuery 1.7 or higher:
'/admin/config/development/jquery_update'.
* Enable the entity-embed filter 'Display embedded entities' for the desired
text formats from the Text Formats configuration page:
'/admin/config/content/formats'.
* If the 'Limit allowed HTML tags' filter is enabled, add
'<drupal-entity data-entity-type data-entity-uuid data-entity-id data-view-mode data-entity-embed-display data-entity-embed-settings>'
to the 'Allowed HTML tags'.
* To enable the WYSIWYG plugin, move the entity-embed 'E' button into the
Active toolbar for the desired text formats from the Text Formats
configuration page: '/admin/config/content/formats'.
By default, Entity Embed includes a single button for embedding nodes.
Additional buttons can be added from the configuration page:
'/admin/config/content/embed-button'.
USAGE
-----
Embedding entities with WYSIWYG:
* For example, create a new *Article* content.
* Click on the 'E' button in the text editor.
* Enter part of the title of the entity you're looking for and select one of the
search results.
* For **Display as**, choose one of the following options:
* Rendered Entity
* Entity ID
* Label
* If chosen **Rendered Entity**, choose one of the following options for
**View mode**:
* Default
* Full content
* RSS
* Search index
* Search result highlighting input
* Optionally, choose to align left, center or right.
Embedding entities without WYSIWYG:
Users should be embedding entities using the CKEditor WYSIWYG button as
described above. This section is more technical about the HTML markup that is
used to embed the actual entity.
Embed by UUID (recommended: requires the UUID module):
<drupal-entity data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="07bf3a2e-1941-4a44-9b02-2d1d7a41ec0e" data-entity-embed-display="entity_reference:entity_reference_entity_view" data-entity-embed-settings='{"view_mode":"teaser"}' />
Embed by ID (not recommended):
<drupal-entity data-entity-type="node" data-entity-id="1" data-entity-embed-display="entity_reference:entity_reference_entity_view" data-entity-embed-settings='{"view_mode":"teaser"}' />
Entity Embed Display Plugins
Embedding entities uses an Entity Embed Display plugin, provided in the
'data-entity-embed-display' attribute. By default we provide four different
Entity Embed Display plugins out of the box:
- entity_reference:_formatter_id_: Renders the entity using a specific Entity
Reference field formatter.
- entity_reference:_entity_reference_label_: Renders the entity using the
"Label" formatter.
- file:_formatter_id_: Renders the entity using a specific File field formatter.
This will only work if the entity is a file entity type.
- image:_formatter_id_: Renders the entity using a specific Image field
formatter. This will only work if the entity is a file entity type, and the
file is an image.
Configuration for the Entity Embed Display plugin can be provided by using a
'data-entity-embed-settings' attribute, which contains a JSON-encoded array
value. Note that care must be used to use single quotes around the attribute
value since JSON-encoded arrays typically contain double quotes.
The above examples render the entity using the _entity_reference_entity_view_
formatter from the Entity Reference module, using the _teaser_ view mode.
