classList Helper

An Element.classList method helper function that can be curried for functional programing.

Example

Task: Add the class active to all list elements.

<ul>
  <li class="item">item</li>
  <li class="item">item</li>
  <li class="item">item</li>
  <li class="item">item</li>
</ul>

Setup:

// import various libs
import { map, curry } from 'lodash';
let classListHelper = require('classlist-helper');

// Get the list of elements that you want to change
let nodeList = document.querySelectorAll('.item'); // 4 html elements

Usage:

// Create Active method with classListHelper.
let setActive = curry(classlistHelper)('active')('add');

// Set all elements to Active.
map(nodeList, setActive);

After running this, the html will look like:

<ul>
  <li class="item active">item</li>
  <li class="item active">item</li>
  <li class="item active">item</li>
  <li class="item active">item</li>
</ul>
