bulmaJS.setConfig('bulma.dropdown', true)
bulmaJS.setConfig('dropdown', true)
bulmaJS.setConfig('tabs', true)
bulmaJS.setConfig('window.collapse', true) // close dropdowns when clicked outside

Set Unique Element Id Prefix

bulmaJS.setConfig('bulmaJS.elementIdPrefix', 'bulma-js-')

Set the "Initialized" Attribute Name

bulmaJS.setConfig('bulmaJS.initAttribute', 'data-bulma-js-init')

Initialize Functionality on Entire Page

Can be called multiple times after page contents have changed.

bulmaJS.init()

Initialize Functionality on the Children of an Element

Helpful after populating an area with an AJAX call.

bulmaJS.init(document.getElementById('container-element'))

Features So Far

Toggles appropriate Bulma classes and ARIA attributes.
Close dropdown and navbar-dropdown elements when other parts of the webpage are clicked.

Delete Buttons (Messages, Notifications, and Tags)

https://bulma.io/documentation/elements/notification/, https://bulma.io/documentation/components/message/, https://bulma.io/documentation/elements/tag/

Support for delete buttons within notification, message, and tag elements. (Thanks thibaultmeyer for the feature.)

Navbar

https://bulma.io/documentation/components/navbar/

Support for the navbar-burger element.
Support for the navbar-dropdown elements.

Dropdown

https://bulma.io/documentation/components/dropdown/

Support for the dropdown elements.

Tabs

https://bulma.io/documentation/components/tabs/

Support for the tabs elements.
Use the href attribute on each tab anchor element to link to the corresponding tab panel.
All tab panels should be siblings. Hide the inactive tab panels with the is-hidden class.

Modal Alerts and Confirms

Methods for creating accessible alerts and confirms.

bulmaJS.alert('This is a basic alert!')

bulmaJS.alert({
  title: 'Alert',
  message: 'This is a <strong>more complex</strong> alert.',
  messageIsHtml: true,
  contextualColorName: 'success',
  okButton: {
    text: 'Yes, But Not Too Complex',
    callbackFunction: () => {
      console.log('OK Button Pressed')
    }
  }
})

bulmaJS.confirm({
  title: 'Question',
  message: 'Have you ever been to Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario?',
  contextualColorName: 'primary',
  okButton: {
    text: 'Yes, I Have',
    callbackFunction: () => {
      console.log('OK Button Pressed')
    }
  },
  cancelButton: {
    text: "No, But I'd Like To",
    callbackFunction: () => {
      console.log('Cancel Button Pressed')
    }
  }
})

Alternative Bulma JavaScript Project

The BulmaJS project also provides JavaScript functionality for Bulma, and is far more complete than this project. I recommend you take a look if you need more functionality than is offered here.

This project goes in a different direction in a few ways.

Prioritizes simple usage in an HTML script tag. No import or require necessary.
TypeScript types available.
Goes beyond just toggling the is-active Bulma classes, and manages ARIA attributes as well to increase accessibility.
Attempts to correct common issues (i.e. missing roles, missing ids) that may affect accessibility.
