Interface VNode

A virtual representation of a DOM Node. Maquette assumes that VNode objects are never modified externally. Instances of VNode can be created using h.

interface VNode {
    children: undefined | VNode[];
    domNode: null | Node;
    properties: undefined | VNodeProperties;
    text: undefined | string;
    vnodeSelector: string;
}

Properties

children: undefined | VNode[]

Array of VNodes to be used as children. This array is already flattened.

domNode: null | Node

Used by maquette to store the domNode that was produced from this VNode.

properties: undefined | VNodeProperties

Object containing attributes, properties, event handlers and more, see h.

text: undefined | string

Used in a special case when a VNode only has one child node which is a text node. Only used in combination with children === undefined.

vnodeSelector: string

The CSS selector containing tagname, css classnames and id. An empty string is used to denote a text node.
