 ## Description

 Two main conceptions - anchor and link to anchor. There are 4 type of references defined by default: chapter, image, table, reference. Example of anchor of type `image` in raw html:

 ```html

 <a 

 	class="cross-reference cross-anchor" 

 	cross-reference="image" 

 	cross-anchor="" 

 	cross-guid="7d24373b-0756-481d-bf97-5a17ffdf3a28" 

 	cross-name="Experimental result" 

 	cross-number="1" 

 	name="image-7d24373b-0756-481d-bf97-5a17ffdf3a28"

 	>

 		Fig. 1. Experimental result.

 </a>

 ```

 Example of link to this anchor in raw html:

 ```html

 <a 

 	class="cross-reference cross-link" 

 	cross-reference="image" 

 	cross-link="" 

 	cross-guid="7d24373b-0756-481d-bf97-5a17ffdf3a28" 

 	cross-name="Experimental result" 

 	cross-number="1" 

 	href="#image-7d24373b-0756-481d-bf97-5a17ffdf3a28" 

 	title="Fig. 1. Experimental result."

 	>

 		1

 </a>

 ```

 After every inserting of anchor or links to anchor all references will be updated to be a concerted. Or you can manually update cross-references by selecting option in menu (for example after deleting of anchors).

 ## Configuration

 You can switch which types is active by config option `config.crossreference.activeTypes = ['type1', 'type2']`. You can define other types also.

 ### Default config:

 ```javascript

 {

 	activeTypes: ['chapter', 'image', 'table', 'reference'],

 	overrideTypes: false,

 	types: {

 		chapter: {

 			name: 'Chapter',

 			anchorTextTemplate: '${number}. ${name}.',

 			linkTextTemplate: '${number}',

 			numeration: {

 				enabled: true,

 				firstNumber: '1',

 				increase: function(number) {

 					var n = parseInt(number);

 					return ++n;

 				}

 			},

 			anchorsProvider: 'default',

 			allowCreateAnchors: true,

 			groupAnchors: false

 		},

 		image: {

 			name: 'Figure',

 			anchorTextTemplate: 'Fig. ${number}. ${name}.',

 			linkTextTemplate: '${number}',

 			numeration: {

 				enabled: true,

 				firstNumber: '1',

 				increase: function(number) {

 					var n = parseInt(number);

 					return ++n;

 				}

 			},

 			anchorsProvider: 'default',

 			allowCreateAnchors: true,

 			groupAnchors: false

 		},

 		table: {

 			name: 'Table',

 			anchorTextTemplate: 'Table ${number}. ${name}.',

 			linkTextTemplate: '${number}',

 			numeration: {

 				enabled: true,

 				firstNumber: '1',

 				increase: function(number) {

 					var n = parseInt(number);

 					return ++n;

 				}

 			},

 			anchorsProvider: 'default',

 			allowCreateAnchors: true,

 			groupAnchors: false

 		},

 		reference: {

 			name: 'Reference',

 			anchorTextTemplate: '[${number}] ${name}.',

 			linkTextTemplate: '[${number}]',

 			numeration: {

 				enabled: true,

 				firstNumber: '1',

 				increase: function(number) {

 					var n = parseInt(number);

 					return ++n;

 				}

 			},

 			anchorsProvider: 'default',

 			allowCreateAnchors: true,

 			groupAnchors: false

 		}

 	}

 }

 ### Example of an anchor object

 	guid: '7d24373b-0756-481d-bf97-5a17ffdf3a28',

 	name: 'Experimental result',

 	number: '1',

 	text: 'Fig. 1. Experimental result.',

 	groupName: 'Group name',

 | `number` | Number of this anchor (if type contains numeration definition). | String | Depends of type |

 | `text` | Text of this anchor. Optional property because of text will generated by `type.anchorTextTemplate` template. | String | No |

 | `groupName` | Name of anchor group. | String | No |

 | `groupGuid` | Unique guid of anchor group. | String | No |

 ### Example of type with anchors provider

 You can define your own anchors provider. By default plugin search anchors in content of editor and use this anchors for links. But if you want refer to anchors outside of editor you can define another type of anchor with `anchorsProvider` function.

 ```javascript

 myType: {

 	name: 'My type',

 	anchorTextTemplate: '${name}',

 	linkTextTemplate: '${name}',

 	anchorsProvider: function(callback, editorAnchors, type, editor) {

 		var anchors = [];

 		anchors.push({

 			type: 'myType',

 			guid: '7d24373b-0756-481d-bf97-5a17ffdf3a28',

 			name: 'Anchor name',

 			number: '1'

 		});

 		callback(anchors);

 	},

 	allowCreateAnchors: false,

 	groupAnchors: false

 },

 ```

 `anchorsProvider` method attributes:

 | Name | Description | Type |

 | --- | --- | --- |

 | `callback` | Callback method which must be called with arrays of anchors as argument. | Function |

 | `editorAnchors` | Anchors of this type (`myType` in this case) which already contains in editor. You can merge this anchors with your own anchors if need. | Array |
