Emptying the trumbowyg editor within an Angular environment

I am currently experiencing issues with the trumbowyg editor in a project I'm working on. I am able to update the editor by changing its model but cannot seem to clear its content using $scope.editorModel = '';. For a more detailed explanation, you can check out my Plunker here (click the button at the bottom of the page).

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how to solve this issue?

Answer ā„–1

In my opinion, this directive may be considered somewhat deficient, which is a common issue with angular wrappers for jquery plugins.

The main issue is the inability to access the trumbowyg element directly. One quick solution is to assign an id to the element and retrieve it using angular.element.

<div trumbowyg-ng id="test" ...

$scope.trumbo = angular.element("#test");
$scope.trumbo.empty(); // (as per the trumbowyg documentation)

This might not be the most conventional approach according to Angular standards. Perhaps a better alternative would involve modifying the directive to provide access to the trumbowyg object in a different manner. Apologies for taking the easy way out.

Answer ā„–2

After experimenting with different versions, I discovered that the newer releases of Trumbowyg (2.4.2) and trumbowyg-ng offer effective two-way binding on the model.

What's interesting is that setting the model to an empty string now results in both the model and the trumbowyg editor being cleared.

<pre>editorModel: {{editorModel}}</pre>
<textarea trumbowyg-ng ng-model="editorModel"></textarea>

Building upon ippi's response, I encountered div elements instead of textareas. By implementing the code below, I was able to successfully resolve my issue:

<div trumbowyg-ng id="trumbowyg" ...

$scope.trumbo = angular.element("#trumbowyg");
$scope.trumbo['0'].textContent = '';
