Usage

Configure your TinyMce init settings by adding external_plugins and usage of chartsTinymcePlugin:

tinymce.init({
  selector: 'textarea',
  external_plugins: {'chartsTinymcePlugin': 'http://your-website/.../charts-tinymce-plugin/plugin.js'}, // Add plugin to Tinymce
  toolbar: 'chartsTinymcePlugin',
  content_css: 'http://your-website/.../charts-tinymce-plugin/app/scripts/chartist/chartist.css', // Add chartist styles or use your own.
  chart_uploader: function (file, cb) {
    // Here is your uploader logic, start to upload you image here like that:

    // yourUploader.sendIMG(file.blob)
    //   .then(function(url){
    //      // Take a look at "class='tinymce-chart'" and "charts-data='" + file.chartsData + "'", it is really important to keep it in the tag - that's way you able to edit your graph.
    //      cb("<img class='tinymce-chart' width='" + file.width + "' height='" + file.height + "' src='" + url + "' charts-data='" + file.chartsData + "' />");
    //   });

    // or just put SVG-html into your content. Example:
    cb(file.html);
  }
});

There are 2 options how to use this plugin:

1. Add SVG tag width graph into your content, I found that is very hard to work with SVG into Tinymce. It's hard to align or edit because it contains a lot of tags inside.
2. Is to upload "Blob file" that plugin returns to your own server and after that add the IMG tag with path to the file. If you are using this method, you able to edit the graph and update the changes. (Take a look at the screenshot above).
