@qc/inject-element

A promise-based Element injection utility. Great for injecting img, link, and script elements.

The promise resolves successfully after the resource successfully loads. The promise rejects if an error occurs while loading or if the loading times out.

Syntax

type CssSelector = string;

type NodeLike = CssSelector | Node;

type AttachAction = 'after' | 'before' | 'endof' | 'startof';

type AttachableString = AttachAction + '@' + CssSelector;

interface AttachableObject {
  [AttachAction]: NodeLike;
}

type Attachable = AttachableString | AttachableObject;

See @qc/attach-node for examples of uses of Attachables.

Examples

import injectElement from 'inject-element'

injectElement({
  tag: 'script',
  src: 'https://cdn.example.com/foobar.js',
  attach: 'endof@body', // An `Attachable`.
})
  .then((elmt) => {
    // Do what is needed now that the dependency successfully loaded.
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    console.error(err)
    // Maybe notify user that something went wrong and should try refreshing.
  })

injectElement({
  tag: 'link',
  href: 'https://cdn.example.com/foobar.css',
  type: 'stylesheet',
  attach: 'endof@head' // An `Attachable`.
})
