be-eventful v0.0.5

be-eventful

Add event handling to a region of DOM using easy to read/write notation.

be-eventful is one decorator among a triumvirate of decorators that roll up to be-hydrated.

Hemingway Notation

<div be-scoped>
    <button>30</button>
    <div data-d=9>hello</div>
</div>
<script nomodule be-eventful='
    Capture previous element sibling events. //This is the default.
    Affect previous element sibling. //This is the default.
    Target beScoped:scope. //Not set by default.  //Special intervention for properties that start with be[\s] or be[A-Z].
    On click of button increment count.
    On click of button trigger custom function.
'
>
    export const customFunction = ({event, target}) => {

    }
</script>

If there are no custom functions inside the script tag, leave off the nomodule attribute.

In this scenario, it may be more convenient to adorn a template element with the eventful instructions, rather than a script element. Particularly, when combining forces with be-derived. That is also supported:

<div be-scoped>
    <button>30</button>
    <div data-d=9>hello</div>
</div>
<template nomodule be-eventful='
    Capture previous element sibling events. //This is the default.
    Affect previous element sibling. //This is the default.
    Target beScoped:scope. //Not set by default.  //Special intervention for properties that start with be[\s] or be[A-Z].
    On click of button increment count.
'
>
</template>
