How do I retrieve the contents of a Quill text editor

Question

I am using the quill text editor in a javascript app and I need to retrieve the contents of the text editor as a string with the HTML included but the docs are a little sparse on this subject.

Answer 1

Depends what you want to get, here's an example showing a few ways:

var delta = editor.getContents(); var text = editor.getText(); var justHtml = editor.root.innerHTML; preciousContent.innerHTML = JSON.stringify(delta); justTextContent.innerHTML = text; justHtmlContent.innerHTML = justHtml; 

Answer 2

Quite simply by accessing the editor's innerHTML:

var quill = new Quill('#editor', {     theme: 'snow' }); // .... var editor_content = quill.container.innerHTML // or quill.container.firstChild.innerHTML could also work 

Hope this helps!
