I don't see any examples in frontend of magento for this case. Wonder how to add editor field from php class instead template

When try to call wysiwygConfig->getConfig() in my block class i got error message from core files

Exception #0 (BadMethodCallException): Missing required argument $variablePluginConfigProvider of MagentoCmsModelWysiwygCompositeConfigProvider.

Below is my code for generate field editor but i think this is legacy way and can't use anymore in 2.3

public function getHtmlEditor()

{

    //Refactor this line later

    $object_manager = MagentoFrameworkAppObjectManager::getInstance();

    $wysiwygConfig = $object_manager->get('MagentoCmsModelWysiwygConfig');

    $configwysiwyg =  $wysiwygConfig->getConfig();

    $configwysiwygData = $configwysiwyg->getData();

    $configwysiwygData["settings"]["theme_advanced_buttons1"] = "bold,italic,|,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,|,fontselect,fontsizeselect,|,forecolor,backcolor,|,link,unlink,image,|,bullist,numlist,|,code";

    $configwysiwygData["settings"]["theme_advanced_buttons2"] = false;

    $configwysiwygData["settings"]["theme_advanced_buttons3"] = false;

    $configwysiwygData["settings"]["theme_advanced_buttons4"] = false;

    $configwysiwygData["settings"]["theme_advanced_statusbar_location"] = false;

    $configwysiwygData["height"] = "250px";

    $configwysiwygData["add_variables"] = false;

    $configwysiwygData["plugins"] = false;

    $configwysiwygData["add_widgets"] = false;

    $configwysiwygData["add_images"] = false;

    $configwysiwygData["files_browser_window_url"] =false;

    $configwysiwygData["no_display"] =true;

    $configwysiwygData["toggle_button"] = false;

    $configwysiwyg->setData($configwysiwygData);

    $elementId = "custom_wysiwyg_content";

    $config = [

        'label'     => __('Content'),

        'name'      => 'wysiwyg_content',

        'config' => $configwysiwyg,

        'wysiwyg' =>  true,

        'style' => 'width:100%; height:250px;',

        'required'=> true,

        'class' => " required-entry",

        'value' => '',

        "validation" => [

            "required-entry" => true

        ]

    ];

    $form = $object_manager->get('MagentoFrameworkDataForm');

    $editor = $object_manager->get('MagentoFrameworkDataFormElementEditor')->setData($config);

    $editor->setForm($form);

    $editor->setId($elementId);

    return $editor->getElementHtml();

}

in template i only need to call this method

 echo $block->getHtmlEditor();

Is there a right way to do this ? Prefer no js way only php code

First of all you have to create a text area field like below :

<textarea id="company_description" name="company_description">

</textarea>

Then add below script to load jQuery and WYSIWYG editor and then assign to
textarea having id company_description :

<script>

    require([

    "jquery", 

    "mage/translate", 

    "mage/adminhtml/events", 

    "mage/adminhtml/wysiwyg/tiny_mce/setup"

    ], function(jQuery){

        wysiwygcompany_description = new wysiwygSetup("company_description", {

            "width":"99%",  // defined width of editor

            "height":"200px", // height of editor

            "plugins":[{"name":"image"}], // for image

            "tinymce4":{"toolbar":"formatselect | bold italic underline | alignleft aligncenter alignright | bullist numlist | link table charmap","plugins":"advlist autolink lists link charmap media noneditable table contextmenu paste code help table",

            }

        });

        wysiwygcompany_description.setup("exact");

    });

</script>

Now you can see editor on textarea field at frontend.
