Describe the bug

How to reproduce the bug?

  1. Initialize the editor
  2. Destroy the editor
  3. Initialize the editor again

What is the expected behavior? The code used is just a starter code from the official doc. It should be re-initialized without any problem.

What is the current behavior? Multiple errors are show in console.

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'get') at o.runDefault (Editor.ts:874:28) at n.updateOffset (FrameWrapView.ts:89:8) at _e (_executeBound.js:8:65) at n.eval (bind.js:10:12) at n.eval (restArguments.js:16:27) at l (debounce.js:17:37)

Another:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'forEach') at s (Editor.ts:317:20) at o.eval (Editor.ts:336:9) at eval (grapes.min.js:2:911116) at Object.eval [as next] (grapes.min.js:2:911221) at eval (grapes.min.js:2:910096) at new Promise (<anonymous>) at nh (grapes.min.js:2:909838) at eval (Editor.ts:326:18)

Yeah, the editor instance is not expected to be destroyed immediately due to some deferred async functions (eg. for the StorageManager) but that can be fixed. For now you can overcome the issue by doing something like this:

setTimeout(() => {
  editor.destroy();
  ...
