Install

NPM:

npm install easycontext

CDN:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/easycontext"></script>

Usage

Import as module:

import { contextmenu } from 'easycontext';

Or when using the CDN:

const { contextmenu } = easycontext;

Use

Use contextmenu for selecting one or more HTMLElements to append a context menu to. You can it one ore more HTMLElements, a selector string or a NodeList. It uses Universal Element Accept under the hood.

Example:

contextmenu('#my-button', [
  {
    text: 'This is a button',
    onClick() {
      console.log('Do something');
    },
  },
]);

// you can also use a funtion to dynamically generate menu items:
contextmenu('button', (target) => {
  return target.classList.contains('removable')
    ? [
        {
          text: 'Remove',
          onClick() {
            target.parentElement.removeChild(target);
          },
        },
      ]
    : [
        {
          text: 'This is not clickable',
        },
      ];
});

// you can also just add a context menu to everything
contextmenu(document, [
  {
    text: 'Reload page',
    onClick() {
      window.location.reload();
    },
  },
]);
