ckeditor5-elements / ElementDuplicateCommand

Class: ElementDuplicateCommand ​

Duplicates an element: inserts the same element, empty, after it, and puts the selection in it: in the copy of an element that holds text, or in a new paragraph in the copy of an element that holds blocks.

The copy has the same name and attributes. A list item gets a new list item id, so it is a new list item, not a second block of the same one. Objects, e.g. an image or a table, are copied with their content, as they cannot be empty.

The element is the given one, the parent of the given position, or the selected element or the parent of the selection (see ElementOrPositionCommand). The command is disabled for parts of a structure, such as table cells.

Constructors ​

Constructor ​

ts
new ElementDuplicateCommand(editor): ElementDuplicateCommand;

Parameters ​

ParameterType
editorEditor

Returns ​

ElementDuplicateCommand

Overrides ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.constructor

Properties ​

icon ​

ts
icon: string | undefined;

Observable

The icon (SVG string) of the command.

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.icon


isForceDisabled ​

ts
readonly isForceDisabled: boolean;

Observable

Whether the command is disabled with forceDisabled() (and not enabled back with clearForceDisabled() for every id), so it is disabled for every target.

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.isForceDisabled


isToggleable ​

ts
isToggleable: boolean = false;

Whether the command can be "on" (see _isOnFor), e.g. because it toggles something. Its buttons then tell assistive technology whether it is on: toolbar buttons with aria-pressed, menu items with aria-checked. Defaults to false; the commands of one element that toggle it set it, e.g. ElementInlineCommand.

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.isToggleable


title ​

ts
title: string;

Observable

The title of the command.

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.title


tooltip ​

ts
tooltip: string | boolean;

Observable

The tooltip of the command. true uses the title.

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.tooltip

Methods ​

_getElement() ​

ts
protected _getElement(elementOrPosition?): 
  | ModelElement
  | null;

Resolves the target (see _getElementOrPosition) to an element: a position becomes its parent element. Never returns a root.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

| ModelElement | null

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand._getElement


_getElementOrPosition() ​

ts
protected _getElementOrPosition(elementOrPosition?): ElementOrPosition | null;

Returns the given position or element, or resolves it from the current selection when absent. Returns null for a target that is not in the document (any more), e.g. a removed element, so commands ignore such targets.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

ElementOrPosition | null

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand._getElementOrPosition


_getPosition() ​

ts
protected _getPosition(elementOrPosition?): 
  | ModelPosition
  | null;

Resolves the target (see _getElementOrPosition) to a position: an element becomes the position before it.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

| ModelPosition | null

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand._getPosition


_getStateFor() ​

ts
protected _getStateFor(elementOrPosition?): ElementOrPositionState;

Returns whether the command is enabled and "on" for the target, before read-only mode and forceDisabled(): the one source of the state, for refresh and getState. By default, from _isEnabledFor and _isOnFor.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

ElementOrPositionState

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand._getStateFor


_isEnabledFor() ​

ts
protected _isEnabledFor(elementOrPosition?): boolean;

Whether the command is enabled for the target. By default: when there is a target and it can be edited.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

boolean

Overrides ​

ElementOrPositionCommand._isEnabledFor


_isOnFor() ​

ts
protected _isOnFor(elementOrPosition?): boolean;

Whether the command is "on" for the target. By default: never. Commands that override it should set isToggleable.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

boolean

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand._isOnFor


_requireElement() ​

ts
protected _requireElement(elementOrPosition?): ModelElement;

Returns the element of the target (see _getElement), in execute() of a command that is enabled only for a target with an element: execute() runs only then, so there is one. Throws when there is none.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

ModelElement

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand._requireElement


clearForceDisabled() ​

ts
clearForceDisabled(id): void;

Clears the disabling done by forceDisabled with this id. When no id is left, the command is refreshed, so isEnabled follows the selection again.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
idstring

Returns ​

void

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.clearForceDisabled


execute() ​

ts
execute(elementOrPosition?): void;

Inserts the copy of the element after it.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

void

Overrides ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.execute


executeFor() ​

ts
executeFor(elementOrPosition, ...args): unknown;

Executes the command for the target, even when the command is disabled for the selection (execute() checks isEnabled, which follows the selection). Does nothing when the command is disabled for the target.

The target is the first argument of execute(); the other arguments are passed after it.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPositionElementOrPosition
...argsunknown[]

Returns ​

unknown

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.executeFor


forceDisabled() ​

ts
forceDisabled(id): void;

Disables the command for every target until it is enabled back with clearForceDisabled for every id it was disabled with. See isForceDisabled.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
idstring

Returns ​

void

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.forceDisabled


getState() ​

ts
getState(elementOrPosition?): ElementOrPositionState;

Returns whether the command would be enabled and "on" for the target, without changing isEnabled. Commands that change the data are disabled in read-only mode, and all commands are disabled when isForceDisabled.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

ElementOrPositionState

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.getState


refresh() ​

ts
refresh(elementOrPosition?): void;

Sets isEnabled for the target (by default, the selection). See _getStateFor.

Parameters ​

ParameterType
elementOrPosition?ElementOrPosition

Returns ​

void

Inherited from ​

ElementOrPositionCommand.refresh
