How might I go about integrated this WYMeditor plugin into Refinery CMS's WYMeditor?

Question

This question may be deemed off-topic or broad - apologies in advance if it is deemed so.

• http://wymeditor.github.io/wymeditor/dist/examples/21-table-plugin.html

This plugin describes itself as "a Table editing plugin that gives the user ability to add and remove rows and columns as well as merge rows and columns" - this is the exactly what I need for my app's backend, powered by Refinery CMS 2.1.2.

These links lead me to believe that this feature request was never implemented but is definitely possible - I'm just wondering how.

One of the author's of the gem (Philip Arndt) hints, in the first link, that it may be a simple case of swapping out the existing Refinery CMS plugin.

I imagine I'm gonna need to determine that the plugin is compatible with the Refinery CMS I'm using and am gonna have to do a considerable amount of configuration and tweaking to get it to play nicely but I can't figure out where to start with this - what are the initial steps I have to take to at least get started? Does anyone else have experience in trying to tweak the toolbar of Refinery CMS's WYMeditor?

This will probably not be a complete answer.

I'd probably start by forking the CMS at the version (tag) I want.

In the clone, I would find the code that initialized the editor. I would look for .wymeditor( to find that code.

I would then look at this example.
