Class SuperComponent

This is the base class for components in wecu. SuperComponent can be used if you want to implement specialised behaviour that can't be achieved by extending Component.

Hierarchy

Constructors

Properties

_initialised: boolean = false
element: Element = ...

This holds the components root element, for a HTMLComponent, this would be the Button or paragraph tag, or for a Component, this is the containing div.

The _render method should mount any child elements to this element, so it should be safe to set this before its rendered.

Methods

  • _init(parent: Element | ShadowRoot): void
  • This method is used to initalise the component. It calls the _render method and mounts this.element to the parent element passed to it.

    Parameters

    • parent: Element | ShadowRoot

    Returns void

  • _render(): void
  • _render mounts children to the element

    Returns void

  • rerender(): void
  • This method should be called when the content inside the component has been updated. The most juniour component that needs to be updated should be called to help performance.

    For example, if you have the choice of rerendering a parent or its child, if the visual update only concerns the child, then calling rerender on the child is prefered.

    Returns void
