rich-harris / simulant Goto Github PK

There are couple of alternatives for this library https://github.com/bitovi/syn and http://postdocs.stanford.edu/Templates/yui-3.5.0/docs/event/simulate.html.

I've been using Syn earlier and now I'm looking for replacement, since in previous projects we had to patch it heavily. Specially handling change event for select was hard for it :)

YUI might be good choice since it has been around forever, but I would prefer smaller lib, which concentrates only to handle event simulation. Do you have any comments how simulant compare to YUI?

Is it possible to set pageX and pageY on the mousemove event? Something like this would be nice:

simulant.fire(document, 'mousemove', {
      pageX: 0,
      pageY: 0
})

but on the event handler all I get is {"isTrusted":false} no matter what I put in the options.

It has this error when I try to call `beforeUnloadEvent'

TypeError: 'undefined' is not an object (evaluating 'maps__initialisersByGroup[group][1]')

Currently simulant.fire doesn't return anything. Would be awesome if it returned the event object, either the passed in one, or the created one.

The current distribution build of simulant specifies simulant.js.map as the source mapping URL (

(As an aside, I find it amusing that the source map URL happens to be defined on line 404 =)

Can the target property of the event be overridden? This could be useful for instance when firing a change event on an input[type=file] element to allow setting the e.target.files property?

Example: http://stackoverflow.com/a/25098258.

Would be really useful for testing to be able to e.g. input text like

simulate.type(el, 'Lorem hipsum');

which would send all keydown / keyup / keypress events which should be sent and maybe even throw error if field doesn't have focus at the time.

Does anyone know how to fire a keyup enter event?

I have tried the following:

simulant.fire(target, 'keyup', { keyCode: 13, which:13 });

But it does not seem to work.

You moved simulant.js into a dist folder, but didn't update the file configuration in package.json

Doesn't seem to support npm or node/browserify.. why is it even published on npm?

Hi!

When I tried to make a trigger for the tap event (for Ractive on-tap with ractive-events-tap plugin):

$.fn.r_trigger = (event_name, opt)->
    el = @[0]
    return if !el
    switch event_name
        when 'tap'
            if win.navigator.pointerEnabled
                simulant.fire(el, 'pointerdown', opt)
                simulant.fire(el, 'pointerup', opt)
            else if win.navigator.msPointerEnabled
                simulant.fire(el, 'MSPointerDown', opt)
                simulant.fire(el, 'MSPointerUp', opt)
            else
                simulant.fire(el, 'mousedown', opt)
                simulant.fire(el, 'click', opt)
        else
            simulant.fire(el, event_name, opt)
    @

I encountered a problem that Simulant fails to fire some events in the legacy mode.
So I had to add 4 events pointerdown pointerup MSPointerDown MSPointerUp to the the eventTypesByGroup.Event

I'm not sure if it is the best way to resolve the problem, so I didn't do a pull request.

Thanks for the lib!
