Asyncei

Install

npm install --save-dev asyncei

Quick start

1. First, initialize Asyncei:

import Asyncei from 'asyncei';
new Asyncei('/path/to/handler/');

2. Then, in your HTML do:

<div data-fetch="subpath/to/block"></div>

3. Watch your block loading asynchronous! 🎉

How it works?

1. Asyncei queries page in the lookup for specified attribute;
2. Fetches all found urls asynchronously;
3. Fetches images in each loaded content block;
4. Dispatches blockContentLoaded event, on the load of the a block;
5. After all blocks are loaded dispatches allBlocksLoaded event;

API

Customization

When initializing Asyncei three parameters may be set:

1. handlerURL – (required) URL for content loading handler.
2. renderFunction – Function to handle content rendering.

Should take two params: element – DOM Element, and text – string of content. Default one is:

(element, text) => {element.innerHTML = text}

3. queryAttribute – Attribute to query in search of loadable blocks. Default is data-fetch.

Events

Each block load triggers custom event blockContentLoaded. Example:

let example = document.getElementById('example-component');
example ? example.addEventListener('blockContentLoaded', () => onExampleLoad()) : null;

If all blocks queried on page are loaded, custom event allBlocksLoaded is triggered. Example:

document.addEventListener('allBlocksLoaded', () => onAllLoaded());
