Functional DOM Events Processor

NPM Build Status Code Quality Coverage GitHub Project API Documentation

Extension of @proc7ts/fun-events for DOM event processing in reactive style.

DOM Events

DOM events are supported by OnDomEvent and DomEventDispatcher.

OnDomEvent extends an OnEvent sender with DOM-specific functionality. It sends DOM Events to DomEventListeners

DomEventDispatcher can be attached to arbitrary EventTarget. It constructs an OnDomEvent senders for each event type and dispatches DOM events.

import { DomEventDispatcher } from '@frontmeans/dom-events';

const dispatcher = new DomEventDispatcher(document.getElementById('my-button'));

dispatcher.on('click')(submit);
dispatcher.dispatch(new MouseEvent('click'));

DOM-specific Actions

Along with basic API this library provides DOM-specific actions.

captureDomEvents()

Creates an OnDomEvent sender that enables event capturing by default.

This corresponds to specifying true or { capture: true } as a second argument to EventTarget.addEventListener().

import { captureDomEvents, DomEventDispatcher } from '@frontmeans/dom-events';

const container = document.getElementById('my-container');

// Clicking on the inner elements would be handled by container first.
new DomEventDispatcher(container).on('click').do(captureDomEvents)(handleContainerClick);

// The above is the same as
container.addEventListener('click', handleContainerClick, true);

handleDomEvents()

Creates a DOM events processor that enables or disables default DOM event handlers.

Corresponds to specifying { passive: true } as a second argument to EventTarget.addEventListener() when true passed as parameter, or no parameters passes.

import { DomEventDispatcher, handleDomEvents } from '@frontmeans/dom-events';

// Scrolling events won't be prevented.
new DomEventDispatcher(document.body).on('scroll').do(handleDomEvents())(handleScroll);

// The above is the same as
document.body.addEventListener('scroll', handleScroll, { passive: true });

Causes listeners to invoke an Event.preventDefault() method prior to event handling when false passed as parameter.

import { DomEventDispatcher, handleDomEvents } from '@frontmeans/dom-events';

// Clicking on the link won't lead to navigation.
new DomEventDispatcher(document.getElementById('my-href')).on('click').do(handleDomEvents(false))(doSomething);

// The above is the same as
document.getElementById('my-href').addEventListener('click', event => {
  event.preventDefault();
  doSomething(event);
});

interceptDomEvents()

Creates an OnDomEvent sender preventing other listeners of the same event from being called.

Causes listeners to invoke an Event.stopImmediatePropagation() method prior to event handing.

import { DomEventDispatcher, interceptDomEvents } from '@frontmeans/dom-events';

const dispatcher = new DomEventDispatcher(document.getElementById('my-div'));
const onClick = dispatcher.on('click');

// The ascendants won't receive a click the div.
onClick.do(interceptDomEvents)(() => console.log('1')); // This is the last handler
onClick(() => console.log('2')); // This one won't be called

dispatcher.dispatch(new MouseEvent('click')); // console: 1

// The first listener registration above is the same as
document.getElementById('my-div').addEventListener('click', event => {
  event.stopImmediatePropagation();
  console.log('1');
});

stopDomEvents()

Creates an OnDomEvent sender preventing further propagation of events in the capturing and bubbling phases.

Causes listeners to invoke an Event.stopPropagation() method prior to event handing.

import { DomEventDispatcher, stopDomEvents } from '@frontmeans/dom-events';

// The ascendants won't receive a click the div.
new DomEventDispatcher(document.getElementById('my-div')).on('click').do(stopDomEvents)(handleClick);

// The above is the same as
document.getElementById('my-div').addEventListener('click', event => {
  event.stopPropagation();
  handleClick(event);
});
