Gets the resource associated with this editor model.

Methods

applyEdits

  • applyEdits(operations: IIdentifiedSingleEditOperation[]): IIdentifiedSingleEditOperation[]

    Parameters

    • operations: IIdentifiedSingleEditOperation[]

      The edit operations.

    Returns IIdentifiedSingleEditOperation[]

    The inverse edit operations, that, when applied, will bring the model back to the previous state.

deltaDecorations

  • deltaDecorations(oldDecorations: string[], newDecorations: IModelDeltaDecoration[], ownerId?: number): string[]
  • Perform a minimum amount of operations, in order to transform the decorations identified by oldDecorations to the decorations described by newDecorations and returns the new identifiers associated with the resulting decorations.

    Parameters

    • oldDecorations: string[]

      Array containing previous decorations identifiers.

    • newDecorations: IModelDeltaDecoration[]

      Array describing what decorations should result after the call.
