Moodle Atto editor plugin for Medical Imaging Study Viewer

This is a helper plugin for Medical Imaging Study Viewer filter. It can be used to insert formatted links into course content that are replaced by the viewer when that content is viewed. This is purely a convenience plugin, it is not required to use the filter plugin (the links can also be edited manually to include the identifier tag).

Usage

After installing the plugin, add medimgviewer to the files row (or a button group of your choice) in Administration / Plugins / Text editors / Atto HTML editor / Toolbar config.

Clicking the app icon on the editor toolbar opens up a modal displaying the files and folders in the root directory of the file area. Clicking on a file or folder will copy its path to the path row above, while double-clicking folders will display their contents.

Inserting the viewer in the text editor does not work in a WYSIWYG manner, because the viewer would be much too large to comfortably handle in the editor. Instead, a formatted link can be inserted into the text content, which will then (when viewing the entry) be replaced by the viewer app, opening the linked resource.

Once a path to a resource (file or folder) is shown on the top row, inserting the link can be done in two ways:

Clicking Copy will copy a formatted URL to that resource to clipboard, which can be pasted as a link into the text.
Clicking Insert will insert a complete link at the cursor position, or if text has been selected, will wrap that text in a formatted link to the resource.

Removing the viewer app is done by removing the formatted link from the text.

Additional notes

If the resource browser dialog is opened from more than one editor (for example the General and Content editors) it will not be usable in the section where it was opened later (due to component ID conflicts in the template code). Consequently, the dialog should only be used in the content editor, where the images will be inserted.
