jalgo-editor 0.1.0

A zero-dependency, CSP-strict, bidirectional rich-text editor for Django.

Jalgo-editor

A zero-dependency, CSP-strict, bidirectional rich-text editor that feels like Notion but lives natively inside the Django Admin.

Why Jalgo?

Right now, if a Django developer wants a rich-text editor, they have to compromise:

• CKEditor / TinyMCE: Bloated, and fails strict Content Security Policies (CSP) because they inject style="..." everywhere.
• Editor.js: Block-based, making mixed-language typing (Persian and English in the same article) a frustrating experience.
• Tiptap/ProseMirror: Requires NPM, React/Vue, and complex build pipelines.

Jalgo-editor is the anti-bloat editor. It is a pure Python and Vanilla JavaScript package that drops into any Django project instantly. No NPM, no build steps, no external CSS frameworks required.

Killer Features

1. Smart Bi-Directional (Bidi) Engine: Users don't click an "RTL" or "LTR" button. The editor automatically detects the language of every new paragraph natively applying dir="rtl" to Persian/Arabic blocks, and dir="ltr" to English.
2. 100% CSP Compliant (Bank-Grade Security): Zero inline styles. Formatting is strictly semantic. A robust backend Python parser completely strips bad formatting on save.
3. The "Zen" Interface: Bubble Menus, Slash Commands (/), and a beautiful glassmorphism design that fully respects Django's Light/Dark modes.
4. Built-in SEO Tools & Code View: Real-time word counts, reading time, heading hierarchy validators, and a zero-dependency Syntax-Highlighted Code Editor built right in.

Installation

Install using pip:

pip install jalgo-editor

Add to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    "jalgo_editor",
]

Usage

Simply swap your standard models.TextField with FluidTextField:

from django.db import models
from jalgo_editor.fields import FluidTextField

class Article(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    content = FluidTextField() # Automatically renders the Notion-style editor

No widget configuration needed! It will seamlessly appear in your Django Admin with beautiful Glassmorphism styling and dark-mode support.

Monetizable Extensions (Premium API)

Jalgo-editor includes configuration hooks for premium integrations:

• JALGO_AI_LICENSE_KEY: Unlocks the /ai autocomplete translation and phrasing engine inside the bubble menu.
• JALGO_CDN_TOKEN: Bypasses your local media storage to automatically drag-and-drop upload and WebP-optimize images to the Jalgo CDN.
