@oozcitak/dom

What is @oozcitak/dom?

@oozcitak/dom is a lightweight, standards-compliant DOM implementation for Node.js. It allows you to create, manipulate, and traverse DOM trees in a server-side environment, similar to how you would in a browser.

What are @oozcitak/dom's main functionalities?

Creating a DOM Document

This feature allows you to create a new DOM document. The code sample demonstrates how to create a new document with a root element and serialize it to a string.

const { DOMImplementation, XMLSerializer } = require('@oozcitak/dom');
const impl = new DOMImplementation();
const doc = impl.createDocument(null, 'root', null);
const serializer = new XMLSerializer();
console.log(serializer.serializeToString(doc));

Manipulating DOM Elements

This feature allows you to manipulate DOM elements. The code sample demonstrates how to create a new element, set its text content, and append it to the root element.

const { DOMImplementation, XMLSerializer } = require('@oozcitak/dom');
const impl = new DOMImplementation();
const doc = impl.createDocument(null, 'root', null);
const root = doc.documentElement;
const child = doc.createElement('child');
child.textContent = 'Hello, World!';
root.appendChild(child);
const serializer = new XMLSerializer();
console.log(serializer.serializeToString(doc));

Traversing the DOM

This feature allows you to traverse the DOM tree. The code sample demonstrates how to create multiple child elements, append them to the root, and then traverse the children to log their text content.

const { DOMImplementation, XMLSerializer } = require('@oozcitak/dom');
const impl = new DOMImplementation();
const doc = impl.createDocument(null, 'root', null);
const root = doc.documentElement;
const child1 = doc.createElement('child');
child1.textContent = 'Child 1';
const child2 = doc.createElement('child');
child2.textContent = 'Child 2';
root.appendChild(child1);
root.appendChild(child2);
const children = root.getElementsByTagName('child');
for (let i = 0; i < children.length; i++) {
  console.log(children[i].textContent);
}

Other packages similar to @oozcitak/dom

jsdom

jsdom is a popular package that provides a complete, standards-compliant JavaScript environment, including the DOM, for Node.js. It is more feature-rich and closely mimics a browser environment compared to @oozcitak/dom, making it suitable for more complex use cases.

xmldom

xmldom is another package that provides a DOM implementation for XML documents in Node.js. It is similar to @oozcitak/dom but focuses more on XML parsing and serialization, making it a good choice for XML-specific tasks.

domino

domino is a fast and minimalistic DOM implementation for Node.js. It is designed to be lightweight and efficient, similar to @oozcitak/dom, but may lack some of the more advanced features found in jsdom.

README

DOM

A Javascript implementation of the DOM Living Standard.

Version

Current version implements the standard as of commit 57512fa (Last Updated 24 September 2019).

This DOM implementation is for XML documents only.

Installation

npm install @oozcitak/dom

Usage

Create an instance of the DOMImplementation class to construct the DOM tree.

const { DOMImplementation } = require("@oozcitak/dom");

const dom = new DOMImplementation();
const doc = dom.createDocument('ns', 'root');

The module also exports DOMParser and XMLSerializer classes as in the browser.
