A lightweight data-binding (or so-called mvvm) library, providing both declarative template and imperative call ways.

"domod" is named from "DOM", "Model" and their two-way relationship.

Philosophy

• Connection, relation, dependency. No matter it is data or dom, it is a tree. Tree and tree node relations make up graphs.
• Reactive programming.

Simple Application

A simple application:

const state = {
    count: 0,
    increase() {
        this.count++ // `this` points to `state`
    }
}

DMD.relate(state, {
    negative: {
        resultFrom() {
            return this.count < 0 // `this` points to `state`
        }
    }
})

const view = `
    <div>
        <h1 m-style="{ color: $negative ? 'red' : 'green' }">{{$count}}</h1>
        <button m-onclick="$count = $count - 1">-</button>
        <button m-onclick="$increase()">+</button>
    </div>
`

DMD('#app', view, state)

API

An online demo.

An example of a form:

<script src="path/to/domod.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

<form id="form1">
    <div>
        <label>gender:</label>
        <input m-onclick="$form.gender = 'male'" 
               type="radio" name="gender" value="male" m-checked="$form.gender === 'male'">Male
        <input m-onclick="$form.gender = 'female'" 
               type="radio" name="gender" value="female" m-checked="$form.gender === 'female'">Female
    </div>
    <div>
        <label>mobile:</label>
        <input type="text" name="mobile" m-value="$form.mobile">
        <span m-style="{ display: !!$form.mobile ? 'inline' : 'none' }">
            You input: {{$parse($form.mobile)}}.
        </span>
        <span m-class="['some-class', { red: !$mobileInputStatus }]" 
              m-style="{ display: !$mobileInputStatus ? 'inline' : 'none' }">
            {{$form.mobile}} is {{$mobileInputStatus}}!
        </span>
    </div>
    <div>
        <label>age:</label>
        <select name="age" m-value="$form.age.value">
            <option m-each="$val in $form.age.options" m-value="$val">{{$val}}</option>
        </select>
    </div>
    <div>
        <label>city:</label>
        <select name="city" m-value="$form.city.value">
            <option m-each="($val, $key) in $form.city.options" m-value="$key">
                {{$val.code}}.{{$val.name}}
            </option>
        </select>
    </div>
</form>

<script>
    var store = {
        parse: function (v) {
            return parseInt(v);
        },
        validateMobile: function () {
            return /^1[3|4|5|8][0-9]\d{8}$/.test(this.form.mobile);
        },
        form: {
            gender: 'female',
            mobile: '15210001000',
            age: {
                value: '37-54',
                options: [
                    '0-18',
                    '19-36',
                    '37-54',
                    '55-200'
                ]
            },
            city: {
                value: '1',
                options: [
                    { code: 1, name: 'beijing' },
                    { code: 2, name: 'newyork' },
                    { code: 3, name: 'tokyo' },
                    { code: 4, name: 'london' },
                    { code: 5, name: 'paris' }
                ]
            }
        }
    };

    /* Watch a property mutation */
    store.mobileInputStatus = store.validateMobile();
    DMD.relate(store, {
        'form.mobile': {
            dnstream: 'mobileInputStatus',
            resultIn: function (v) {
                var newVal = store.validateMobile();
                console.log(`mobile is ${newVal}`);
                DMD.$(store, 'mobileInputStatus', newVal);

    DMD('#form1', store);
</script>

Advance

Imperative Calling

Providing a data object:

var store = {
    value: '1'
};

Now assign a property color which would be computed from the property value.

There are two methods available, kernel and relate.

The kernel method, which is actually a constructor function, accepts two parameters besides the data object: the property and its relation object.

new domod.kernel(store, 'color', {
    resultFrom: function () {
        return isNaN(parseInt(store.value)) ? 'red' : 'green';
    }
});

The relate method, which is somehow a composition of kernel, accepts one parameter besides the data object: an object representing a map from property names to relation objects.

domod.relate(store, {
    color: {
        resultFrom: function () {
            return isNaN(parseInt(store.value)) ? 'red' : 'green';
        }
    }
});

Relation Object

A relation object can be declared with these properties:

Property | Effect :---: | :--- resultFrom | Do when the property is being got, and return the value computed. resultIn | Do when the property is being set. upstream | Other properties as the property's dependencies. dnstream | Other properties as the property's effects.
