vdom
A DOM render and patch algorithm for vtree
Motivation
Given a vtree
structure representing a DOM structure, we would like to either
render the structure to a DOM node using vdom/create-element
or we would like
to update the DOM using the results of vtree/diff
by patching the DOM with
vdom/patch
This module is currently re-exporting the vdom
from virtual-dom
, but the
aim is to eventually make this a standalone module and have virtual-dom
depend on vdom
instead.
Example
var VNode = require("vtree/vnode")
var diff = require("vtree/diff")
var createElement = require("vdom/create-element")
var patch = require("vdom/patch")
var leftNode = new VNode("div")
var rightNode = new VNode("text")
// Render the left node to a DOM node
var rootNode = createElement(leftNode)
document.body.appendChild(rootNode)
// Update the DOM with the results of a diff
var patches = diff(leftNode, rightNode)
patch(rootNode, patches)
Installation
npm install vdom
