Replace content of the line (in ace.editor) and overwrite it

ace-editor, javascript, regex

Solution

To replace contents of a line use `editor.session.replace` function. like this

var Range = require("ace/range").Range
var row = editor.selection.lead.row
var newText = "someText"
editor.session.replace(new Range(row, 0, row, Number.MAX_VALUE), newText)

Problem

I have some Content in an ace.editor. and now i have an Trigger-Button which puts new text in that actual line - this works, but i want to overwrite the complete content in line (filled with Tabs and numbers) like this: That line, where the Cursor has his actual possition should be overrited complete and filled with new Content. with my code (see below) i can write in the Editor but it will not overwrite it. See my code, like i tryed: ``` function Textuebergabe_NP01(text) { null_tabelle_dues1_text.insert( null_tabelle_dues1_text.replace(/^.*,\s*RA:\s*/, "") + text + '\r\n ' ); } ```
