GenDOMan is a tool that generates the JavaScript code to create the nodes of a given HTML code
Clone the repository, cd into the directory and execute $ ./install.sh <installation path>
A simple example of usage is:
$ gendoman -i input.html
By default, GenDOMan generates ES6 JS code. If you want to select the generated code to use the ECMAScript 5, pass the argument
--ecmascript=es5
In order to wrap the generated code into a template, pass the argument.
--template=template.html
Write the expression {{code}} in the template to tell GenDOMan where to place the generated code. Example:
<html>
<head>
<title>This is an example</title>
<script>{{code}}</script>
</head>
<body></body>
</html>If you want a node to be created dynamically with a foreach loop, use the attribute data-repeat,
with the value element in collection, being element the name of the iterating variable, and collection
the collection that is iterated. Example:
...
<div data-repeat="node in [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]"></div>
...This will generate the following code:
// ...
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].forEach((node) => {
var node1 = document.createElement("div");
node0.appendChild(node2);
}
);
// ...
