infuse.host's Introduction

Infuse.host allows you to infuse HTML templates with dynamic content. The resulting infused HTML fragments can then be added to host elements. This is done by writing template literals or expressions in your HTML templates. It also allows you to:

Write event handlers, the same way you would normally write them (using on-event attributes), but with access to the host and other variables.
Write watches to automatically re-infuse an element when an event occurs on another element.
Write iterating templates to infuse a template iteratively, based on values in a given iterable variable.

Installation

npm install infuse.host

Example

A working version of the following "Hello world" example can be found here.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
	<title>Basic infuse.host example</title>
</head>
<body>
	<template>
		<h1>${ data.title }</h1>
	</template>
	<header></header>

	<script type="module">
		// Import the infuse and parser modules.
		import infuse from 'https://infuse.host/src/infuse.js';
		import parseTemplate from 'https://infuse.host/src/parseTemplate.js';

		// Find the <header> element (which will be used as `host`) and the <template> element.
		const host = document.querySelector('header');
		const template = document.querySelector('template');

		// Parse the template.
		parseTemplate(template);

		// Data to infuse.
		const data = { title: 'Hello World' };

		// Clone and infuse the template.
		const fragment = infuse(host, template, data);

		// Add the resulting infused `fragment` to the <header> (the `host`).
		host.appendChild(fragment);
	</script>
</body>
