How to dynamically generate wordpress editor on frontend?

I want to initialize the wordpress editor dynamically on frontend. I have tried to include the following scripts:

wp_enqueue_script('editor');
wp_enqueue_script('media-upload');
wp_enqueue_script('thickbox');

Then to init the editor like this: 

tinymce.init({
  mode : 'specific_textareas',
  editor_selector :'tinymce'
});

But it does not work. Any ideas?

You are in luck. There is a Wordpress internal function for that. It's the wp_editor function.

The function does all the work for you. It enqueues the right scripts and style-sheets. Just pass the configuration you want.

wp_editor('Enter your text here', 'editor_id_here')
