Usage

You can simply import the module and call bind method to bind an element to DOM Display Detector.

import { bind } from '@cevad-tokatli/dom-display-detector'

const el = document.querySelector('#el')
bind(el, () => {
    el.classList.add('active')
})

Methods

bind

bind(el: Element | HTMLElement | string, onShow: (el: HTMLElement, isInitial: boolean) => void, onHide?: (el: HTMLElement, isInitial: boolean) => void): void

Binds the given element(s) to DOM Display Detector. Every time the element appears on the screen, calls onShow method and when the element disappears on the screen, calls onHide method.

As soon as the element is bound, DOM Display Detector directly calls either onShow or onHide according to the element view status. (the second argument isInitial become true in these kinds of calls.)

bindOnce

bindOnce(el: Element | HTMLElement | string, onShow: (el: HTMLElement) => void, onHide?: (el: HTMLElement) => void): void

Unbinds the element automatically once the element is shown on the screen.

When the element is bound to DOM Display Detector, checks if the element is shown on the screen, and if it is, directly calls onShow method and unbinds the element, however, if the element is hidden, calls onHide method and keeps the element bound until it appears on the screen.

unbind

unbind(el: Element | HTMLElement | string): void

Unbinds the given element(s).
