TinyMCE Spellchecker Rails not working
Question
I am currently using the tinymce-rails gem found here https://github.com/spohlenz/tinymce-rails and I am having trouble getting the spellchecker to initialize. The TinyMCE editor works fine otherwise.
Javascript:
tinyMCE.init({
mode: "specific_textareas",
editor_selector: "tinymce",
theme: "advanced",
theme_advanced_toolbar_location: "top",
theme_advanced_toolbar_align: "left",
theme_advanced_statusbar_location: "bottom",
theme_advanced_buttons1: "bold,italic,underline,bullist,numlist",
theme_advanced_buttons3: "tablecontrols,fullscreen,spellchecker",
plugins: "table,autoresize,fullscreen,spellchecker",
width: "100%",
height: 400,
autoresize_min_height: 400,
autoresize_max_height: 800,
language:"en",
spellchecker_languages: "+English=en"
});
The erb <%= f.text_area :completed, :class => "tinymce", :size => 500 %> generates the following:
<body id="tinymce" class="mceContentBody " contenteditable="true" onload="window.parent.tinyMCE.get('report_completed').onLoad.dispatch();" spellcheck="false" style="overflow-y: hidden; padding-bottom: 50px;" dir="ltr">
I note that the spellcheck field is false, but I'm not sure why, or if that is actually related to what the problem is.

This post , and this post suggest that it's a bit more involved than just adding it to the list of plugins & setting the language.
Both posts suggest using aspell to check spellings, adding the line :spellchecker_rpc_url => "/users/spellchecker", to the TinyMCE configuration, and writing some custom Controller code.
I hope those links help you out.

Possible duplicate: TinyMCE 4.0.5 spell check not working
According to what I've found elsewhere, the spellchecker plugin was powered by Google service - which has been retired. So at this time there does not appear to be an integrated TinyMCE spellchecker solution.
However, you CAN enable the browser's built-in spellchecker by doing the following:
tinymce.init({
browser_spellcheck : true,
});
Be sure to remove spellchecker from your toolbar and your plugins list.

I've managed to easily get as-you-type-check working, just by adding this to my config/tinymce.yml
browser_spellcheck:
- true

I ended up using the suggestions in one of @James Chevalier's links and following the TinyMCE v4 docs to write this:
# config/routes.rb
post 'tinymce/spellcheck'
# app/controllers/tinymce_controller.rb
class TinymceController < ApplicationController
skip_forgery_protection
respond_to :json
def spellcheck
suggestions = check_spelling_new(
spellcheck_params[:text],
spellcheck_params[:lang]
)
render json: {words: suggestions}
end
private
def spellcheck_params
params.permit(:method, :lang, :text)
end
def check_spelling_new(text, lang)
suggestions = {}
spell_check_response = `echo "#{text}" | aspell -a -l #{lang}`
if spell_check_response.present?
spelling_errors = spell_check_response.split(' ').slice(1..-1)
spelling_errors.length.times do |i|
spelling_errors[i].strip!
if spelling_errors[i].to_s.start_with?('&')
match_data = spelling_errors[i + 1]
suggestion_count = spelling_errors[i + 2].to_i
suggestions[match_data] ||= []
suggestion_count.times do |k|
suggestions[match_data] << spelling_errors[i + k + 4].gsub(',', '')
end
end
end
end
suggestions
end
end
// tinymce.js
tinymce.init({
...,
spellchecker_rpc_url: '.../tinymce/spellcheck'
});
You must have aspell and the required dictionaries installed, of course.
I don't recommend doing it for new projects, do what @wloescher and @Ruby Racer said. I've only done this for a legacy project that must support it.
