Given an element how can I get choice instance?

[realnot]

I'm generating all choices instances on elements that have a 'data-choices' on application bootstrap. Then, I have to update choices set from API.

const element = document.getElementById('id_city');
const choices = new window.Choices(element)
{#choices.setChoices(data['results'], 'pk', 'name', true);#}
choices.setChoices([
  { value: 'One', label: 'Label One', disabled: true },
  { value: 'Two', label: 'Label Two', selected: true },
  { value: 'Three', label: 'Label Three' },
]);

setChoices in this case will not work because an instance of choices is already initialized on 'element'. How can retrieve choices instance from 'element'?

This requires infrastructure outside choices to track the HTML elements and javascript object relationships, and is well outside the scope of what this project can offer
