Ace editor set value at current line

I have an issue with the Ace editor. Whenever I insert a value via editor.setValue(val) it gets inserted at the bottom of the document. Is there any way to insert the value at the current line?

Thanks

Solution

  • to insert a line use 

    editor.session.insert({row: 1, column: 0}, "text\n")

    and to replace a line use

    var Range = require("ace/range").Range // ace.require in no-conflict mode
editor.session.replace(new Range(1, 0, 1, Number.MAX_VALUE), "text")

    or

    editor.session.replace({
    start: {row: 1, column: 0},
    end: {row: 1, column: Number.MAX_VALUE}
}, "text")
