    QuillModule
  ],
  ...
})
class YourModule { ... }

    }
  },
  'quill': {

Config

• ngModel - set initial value or allow two-way databinding
• readOnly (true | false) if user can edit content
• formats - array of allowed formats/groupings
• format - model format - default: html, values: html | object | text | json, sets the model value type - html = html string, object = quill operation object, json = quill operation json, text = plain text
• modules - configure/disable quill modules, e.g toolbar or add custom toolbar via html element default is

{
  toolbar: [
    ['bold', 'italic', 'underline', 'strike'],        // toggled buttons
    ['blockquote', 'code-block'],

    [{ 'header': 1 }, { 'header': 2 }],               // custom button values
    [{ 'list': 'ordered'}, { 'list': 'bullet' }],
    [{ 'script': 'sub'}, { 'script': 'super' }],      // superscript/subscript
    [{ 'indent': '-1'}, { 'indent': '+1' }],          // outdent/indent
    [{ 'direction': 'rtl' }],                         // text direction

    [{ 'size': ['small', false, 'large', 'huge'] }],  // custom dropdown
    [{ 'header': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, false] }],

    [{ 'color': [] }, { 'background': [] }],          // dropdown with defaults from theme
    [{ 'font': [] }],
    [{ 'align': [] }],

    ['clean'],                                         // remove formatting button

    ['link', 'image', 'video']                         // link and image, video
  ]
};

• theme - bubble/snow, default is snow
• sanitize - uses angulars DomSanitizer to santize html values - default: true, boolean (only for format="html")
• style - set a style object, e.g. [style]="{height: '250px'}"
• placeholder - placeholder text, default is Insert text here ...
• bounds - boundary of the editor, default document.body, pass 'self' to attach the editor element
• maxLength - add validation for maxlength - set model state to invalid and add ng-invalid class
• minLength - add validation for minlength - set model state to invalid and add ng-invalid class, only set invalid if editor text not empty --> if you want to check if text is required --> use the required attribute
• required - add validation as a required field - [required]="true" - default: false, boolean expected (no strings!)
• strict - default: true, sets editor in strict mode
• scrollingContainer - default '.ql-editor', allows to set scrolling container
• use custom-options for adding for example custom font sizes --> this overwrites this options globally !!!
• possbility to create a custom toolbar via projection slot [quill-editor-toolbar]:

<quill-editor>
  <div quill-editor-toolbar>
    <span class="ql-formats">
      <button class="ql-bold" [title]="'Bold'"></button>
    </span>
    <span class="ql-formats">
      <select class="ql-align" [title]="'Aligment'">
        <option selected></option>
        <option value="center"></option>
        <option value="right"></option>
        <option value="justify"></option>
      </select>
      <select class="ql-align" [title]="'Aligment2'">
        <option selected></option>
        <option value="center"></option>
        <option value="right"></option>
        <option value="justify"></option>
      </select>
    </span>
  </div>
</quill-editor>

Global Config

It is possible to set custom default toolbar modules with the import of the QuillModule.

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    ...,

    QuillModule.forRoot({
      modules: {
        toolbar: [...]
      }
    })
  ],
  ...
})
class YourModule { ... }

Outputs

• onEditorCreated - editor instance

editor

• onContentChanged - text is updated

{
  editor: editorInstance,
  html: html,
  text: text,
  content: content,
  delta: delta,
  oldDelta: oldDelta,
  source: source
}

• onSelectionChanged - selection is updated

{
  editor: editorInstance,
  range: range,
  oldRange: oldRange,
  source: source
}

Security Hint

Angular templates provide some assurance against XSS in the form of client side sanitizing of all inputs https://angular.io/guide/security#xss.

Ngx-quill provides the config paramter sanitize to sanitize html-strings passed as ngModel or formControl to the component.

It is deactivated per default to avoid stripping content or styling, which is not expected.

But it is recommended to activate this option, if you are working with html strings as model values.
