@xassist/xassist-dom

Basic helperfunctions for DOM-elements

Installation

If you use NPM, you can install the module via npm install xassist-dom. Otherwise, you can download the latest minified file. Be aware any dependencies are not installed by default; you should consider downloading them yourself. If you want, you can install the complete library from github xassist, this includes all dependencies you may need.

The module uses UMD and supports AMD, CommonJS and vanilla environments. Using vanilla: the xaglobal is exported:

API

dom()

The base function object() creates a new Class instance which gives access to some helper Object-functions

dom(/*element::HTMLElement*/)

note that the new- keyword should not be used to create the class-instance.

Parameters for dom()

dom() takes 1 parameters:

• element HTMLElement:an Element on which we will execute the underlying methods

Result for dom()

dom() returns a new class instance of the Class XaDOMelement

dom(a).constructor.name==="XaDOMelement"

XaDOMelement returns 9 method:

• addClass(): adds a classname to the current element
• removeClass(): removes a classname from the current element
• hasClass(): checks if the element has a specified classname
• replaceClass(): replaces a certain class with another
• toggleClass(): toggle the specified classname
• attr(): sets an attribute to a certain value
• parents(): returns all parents of specified element
• isVisible(): checks if the current element is visible
• getDimensions(): gets the dimensions of the element, evne when it's hidden

XaDOMelement has 1 own attributes:

• eHTMLElement:the current base DOM element, provided via the simple factory-function dom()

Example for dom()

dom(document.getElementById('test'))

dom().attr()

sets an attribute to a certain value

dom(elm).attr(attrName::String,value)

Parameters for dom().attr()

dom().attr() takes 2 parameters:

• attrName any datatype:the name of the attribute we want to set
• value any datatype:the value of the attribute we need.

Result for dom().attr()

this method returns the original XaDOMElement, so it can be used for method-chaining

dom().parents()

returns all parents of specified element

dom(elm).parents()

dom().parents() requires no parameters.

Result for dom().parents()

this method returns an Array with all parents of the current element

dom().isVisible()

checks if the current element is visible

dom(elm).isVisible()

dom().isVisible() requires no parameters.

Result for dom().isVisible()

this method returns a Boolean indicating the visibility of the element

dom().getDimensions()

gets the dimensions of the element, evne when it's hidden

dom(elm).getDimensions()

dom().getDimensions() requires no parameters.

Result for dom().getDimensions()

this method returns BoundingClientRect-object
