(Slick is an official MooTools project)
Ever want to make your own :my-widget(rocks) pseudoclass? Now you can!
EG: Use MooTool's Element.get method or jQuery's $.attr
Want to support XPATH selectors? JSONPath selectors? Pre-cached JS Object selctors? Just swap out the default parser and make your own.
Want to integrate a CSS3 Selector parser into your own app somehow? Use the slick selector CSS3 parser by itself and get a JS Object representation of your selector.
Search this context for any nodes that match this selector.
Expects:
- context: document or node or array of documents or nodes
- selector: String or SelectorObject
- (optional) append: Array or Object with a push method
Returns: append argument or Array of 0 or more nodes
Slick.search(document, "#foo > bar.baz") → [<bar>, <bar>, <bar>]
Slick.search([<ol>, <ul>], "li > a") → [<a>, <a>, <a>]
Slick.search(document, "#foo > bar.baz", { push:function(){} }) → { push:function(){}, 0:<bar>, 1:<bar>, 2:<bar> }
Find the first node in document that matches selector or null if none are found.
Expects:
- context: document or node or array of documents or nodes
- selector: String or SelectorObject
Returns: Element or null
Slick.find(document, "#foo > bar.baz") → <bar>
Slick.find(node, "#does-not-exist") → null
Does this node match this selector?
Expects:
- node
- node, String or SelectorObject
Returns: true or false
Slick.match(<div class=rocks>, "div.rocks") → true
Slick.match(<div class=lame>, "div.rocks") → false
Slick.match(<div class=lame>, <div class=rocks>) → false
Does this context contain this node? Is the context a parent of this node?
Expects:
- context: document or node
- node: node
Returns: true or false
Slick.contains(<ul>, <li>) → true
Slick.contains(<body>, <html>) → false
Parse a CSS Selector String into a Selector Object.
Expects: String
Returns: SelectorObject
Slick.parse("#foo > bar.baz") → SelectorObject
