ember-content-editable

ember-content-editable

Ember cli content-editable component, with placeholder and value binding. Use it just like an input or textarea, but it will autoresize for you. It also works in almost all browsers.

Installation

ember install ember-content-editable

Usage

Use it just like input or textarea.

{{content-editable value=name
                   placeholder="Your name"}}

You can also pass in an extra CSS class if required, and of course specify the tag.

{{content-editable value=name
                   placeholder="Your name"
                   extraClass="name-field"
                   tagName="h3"}}

### Options

Option Name	Description	Default
value	The value to be edited	""
placeholder	Placeholder displayed when value is blank	""
isText	Is the value HTML or plaintext?	true
stringInterpolator	Function which processes / intercepts any updated value. Takes a string and returns the string to be used instead.	none
extraClass	String with any extra css class.	null

Events

You can also provide actions to handle the following events

Event Name
key-up
key-down
key-press
escape-press
enter
insert-newline
focus-in
focus-out
mouse-enter
mouse-leave

For example:

{{content-editable value=name
                   placeholder="Your name"
                   enter="save"}}

### Customizing Placeholder Color

.ember-content-editable:empty {
  color: rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
}

Common Problems

### Extra Tags Some browsers have a bug where extra tags including <div>s get inserted into contenteditable fields, usually when newlines are entered.

1. If you don't care about any tags, use isText=true to strip all of them.
2. If you do care about tags, either use display: inline-block on the content-editable component (simplest solution) or pass a function as stringInterpolator=myInterpolator to remove extra text.

myInterpolator(inputString) {
  /* Remove extra tags */
  return stringWithNoDivs;
}
