outliner v0.1.7

Outliner

A tool for creating a document-outline based on HTML5 sections and subsections within an article.

Older documents that use h1-h6 are not handled.

Installation

npm install outliner --save-dev

Usage

• Get a handle on the module, e.g. var uoptoc = require("outliner")
• Call uoptoc.gen(startNode) passing in a DOM node and it will search the descendant tree for all sections and subsections. Each section is given a unique ID if it does not already have one. A nested unordered lists that reflects the structure is returned containing a link to each section.
• uoptoc.genPop(startNode, destNode) works as uoptoc.gen(startNode) except that the resulting UL is appended to the document's destNode element that is passed.
• genPopSelector works as uoptoc.genPop(startNode, destNode) but css selectors for the start and destination nodes are passed.

Dependencies

It uses the JSDOM module, so pass-in JSDOM module objects.
