Query a DOM collection and perform bulk manipulations with its elements.
Bulker queries are live and backed by MutationObserver. This means that on any DOM change underlying bulker collections are changed accordingly (and all listeners are updated as well).
npm install bulkerPass a selector to bulker as you do with querySelector.
import bulker from 'bulker';
// query <div> elements matching the selector
const divs = bulker('#my .awesome > div');
divs
// put text in all <div>s
.set('textContent', 'whoa, I\'m a div!')
// add click listener to all <div>s
// (elements matching the selector that are added to the DOM after this
// will also have the listener on them)
.call('addEventListener', 'click', event => console.log(event));
// get elements text in array (if there are multiple elements) or a string (if single)
.get('textContent');<h2>todos</h2>
<ul class="todos">
<li class="todo">

function addTodo(title) {
const list = document.querySelector('.todos');
const todoElement = document.createElement('li');
const titleElement = document.createElement('span');
const doneButtonElement = document.createElement('button');
titleElement.textContent = title;
doneButtonElement.textContent = 'done';
todoElement.classList.add('todo');
todoElement.appendChild(titleElement);
todoElement.appendChild(doneButtonElement);
list.appendChild(todoElement);
}
/**
* Removes a todo from DOM.
*/
function removeTodo(todo) {
todo.parentNode.removeChild(todo);
}
// query todo elements
const todos = bulker('.todo');
// add click listener on all todos (both present and future-added)
todos.call('addEventListener', 'click', event => {
// if click is on a done button, remove todo
if (event.target.matches('button')) {
removeTodo(event.target.parentNode);
}
});
// query form element
const form = bulker('form');
// submit new todo
form.call('addEventListener', 'submit', event => {
event.preventDefault();
const formElement = event.target;
addTodo(formElement.title.value);
formElement.reset();
});All methods are run on the html sample from Advanced Example section.
Gets a property of elements in bulk and returns them as an array.
bulker('.todo > span').get('textContent');
// returns ['buy milk', 'catch a unicorn']
bulker('h2').get('textContent');
// returns 'todos'Sets a property for each element in bulk (if such property exists).
bulker('.todo > span').set('textContent', 'work hard');
// puts 'work hard' text in all todos titlesCalls a DOM method for each element in bulk (if such method exists).
bulker('h2').call('insertAdjacentHTML', 'beforeend', '<div>a todo list</div>');
// puts a <div> in the titleMIT
