Dombo is a tiny wrapper on the browser, to help work on nodes, similar to jquery. But much closer to the metal of the browser, and a lot less overhead.

It includes a selector, $('.foo') works the same way as jQuery's selector. It returns an array-like object, but with all the properties of the nodes in the selected set.

It also includes a little sugar from jquery: on, off, one, trigger, addClass, removeClass, hasClass, toggleClass.

With some html like

<input class="someInput">
<input class="someInput">
<input class="someInput">
<div class="removeMe">I'm not here</div>

this code

$('.someInput').value = 'foobar'
console.log($('.someInput').value)
$('.removeMe').remove()

will set the value of all the input fields to foobar, print foobar, and also remove the div.

It is possible to add methods, to the returned nodes, with the $.fn object.

E.g, $.fn.foobar = function (this) { ... }. this in this case is the array-like dombo object.

/*
  $('.foo').isHtml('bar')
  returns true if .innerHTML of all nodes is 'bar'
*/

$.fn.isHtml = function (str) {
  return this.reduce(function (res, node) {
    return res && node.innerHTML === str
  }, true)
}

Returns an array with the matched elements, with the methods in this doc added to it. Returns an empty array if there are no matched elements.

If a context is given, the selector is only checked in the descendant nodes of that context.

If the selector is already a previous returned value from dombo, then it is simply returned. This makes sure that $('.foo') === $($('.foo')).

These methods are some extra nice functions that jquery includes today.

If the selector is document or window it is also just returned, so you can do $(document) and $(window).

Iterates over all matched elements

Adds event handler to all matched elements. If selector is given, then the event handler is only run if selector matches child elements.

Removes event handler from all matched elements

Adds event handler to all matched elements, but guarantees it's not called after the first time the event fires.

Returns true if one node of the matched elements has the class

Adds class to all matched elements

Removes class from all matched elements

Adds/removes class on the matched elements depending on whether or not it's already present.

State is a boolean, and if it's set, adds/removes classes accordingly.

To run the test cases run npm test and open the browser and go to http://localhost:9966/test

Dombo is not aiming for legacy browser support.

This means that it's only compatible with browsers that supports querySelectorAll and Object.defineProperty. This is most newer browsers.
