Oxygen Eclipse plugin - get the whole content function

[vanchev]

Hello,
I am using <oXygen/> 10.3 as an Eclipse plugin. My question is whether it is possible to write an action for <oXygen/> Editor/Author that will get the whole text of the .xml file and replace it with an editted version of it. One possible use case of this would be to automatically place a tag everywhere, where the word "someExampleWordHere" appears. If it is possible, which function returns the whole content of the currently editted file?

Best Regards,
Vanchev

P.S. I am sorry if this question was already posted.

Dear Vanchev,

The operation could get implemented like:

Code: Select all

  /**

   * @see ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorOperation#doOperation(ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorAccess, ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.ArgumentsMap)

   */

  public void doOperation(AuthorAccess authorAccess, ArgumentsMap args)

  throws IllegalArgumentException, AuthorOperationException {

    try {

      //Get a reader over the content in the editor

      Reader contentReader = authorAccess.getEditorAccess().createContentReader();

      //Read the whole content in a string builder

      StringBuilder content = new StringBuilder();

      char[] buf = new char[1024];

      int len = -1;

      while((len = contentReader.read(buf)) != -1) {

        content.append(buf, 0, len);

      }

      

      //Replace "someExampleWordHere" with <someTag>someExampleWordHere</someTag>

      String replacedContent = content.toString().replaceAll("someExampleWordHere", "<someTag>someExampleWordHere</someTag>");

      

      //And set the whole content back

      authorAccess.getEditorAccess().reloadContent(new StringReader(replacedContent));

    } catch (IOException e) {

      e.printStackTrace();

    }

  }

Radu
