lit-signal-watcher v0.1.1

lit-signal-watcher

Lit mixin to use signals to read and manage state.

Installation

npm install lit-signal-watcher

Usage

Import the SignalWatcher mixin and use it to define your base class together with LitElement:

import { LitElement, html } from "lit";
import { Signal } from "signal-polyfill";
import { SignalWatcher } from "lit-signal-watcher";

let signal = new Signal.State(0);

setInterval(() => {
  signal.set(signal.get() + 1);
}, 1000);

@customElement('sample-element')
export class SampleElement extends SignalWatcher(LitElement) { // Note the use of `SignalWatcher`
  render() {
    return html`Count: ${signal.get()}`;
  }
}

Every time one of the signals that's read in the render function gets updated, the element will request an update, updating the HTML template to reflect the new values for the signals.
