Installation:

Composer:

composer require "stnvh/silverstripe-cmsspellchecker" "~1"

Download:

Clone this repo into a folder called cmsspellchecker in your silverstripe installation folder.

Usage:

This assumes you have pspell installed or the aspell binary installed on your webserver.

If you have the pspell module installed it should work straight away.
If you have just the binary installed, then you'll need to add something like below to mysite/_config/config.yml:

CMSSpellChecker:
  engine: 'PSpellShell'
  shell: '/usr/local/bin/aspell'

For pre Silverstripe 3.0, set config via method calls:

mysite/_config.php:

CMSSpellChecker::set_engine('PSpellShell');
CMSSpellChecker::set_shell('/usr/local/bin/aspell');

Options:

engine:

• PSpell (default)
• PSpellShell
• EnchantSpell

shell:

• (used with PSpellShell, specifies where aspell is located on the server, default /usr/bin/aspell)

After installing via composer, you must /dev/build
