API
observeMutations
Signalize starts one mutation observer automatically for and watches the configured root for childList
and subtree
changes.
Observe mutations and provide a callback and options:
- initOptions are identical to mutation observer options.
callback
: function that receives a list of mutations based on configuration.
import Signalize from 'signalizejs';
const { observeMutations } = new Signalize();
const element = document.querySelector('#element');
// Observe mutation for element, dispatch event to configured Signalize root.
const observer = observeMutations(element);
// Observe mutation for element, do not dispatch event, call callback instead.
const observer = observeMutations(element, (mutations) => {
// Do something when there is a mutation on the selected element
});

- This event is fired when any node is added.dom:mutation:node:moved
- This event is fired when any node is moved in the DOM.dom:mutation:node:removed
