Version Notes

• 1.3.0
  • Simplification
    • This project was begining to complicate and this pass attempted to get back to being an extension library.
    • Reduced global pollution: Helper classes (e.g. MemberQuery, Node.Scope) have been replaced with simpler helper extension functions with better testability (e.g. Object.prototype.memberSelector).
    • MVW namespace added for disassociated coordination between modules. MVW.Settings offers a shared default & overridable configuration core.
    • Reduced inter-dependencies across the library
    • Dropped low-value parsing extensions
  • Coverage
    • Hundreds of unit tests added
    • Code adjusted for testability
  • New Stuff
    • Added console formatter extensions that were being used in build scripts to the extended package
    • Added EventSource.prototype.promise extension for simplifying conversion of event-based async patterns to promises for compat with async/await
  • Breaking Changes
    • Default attribute prefix changed from 'data-' to 'bind-'
    • Node.prototype.map changed to Node.prototype.bind
    • Helper classes (e.g. MemberQuery, Node.Scope, etc) replaced/simplified with helper functions (e.g. Object.prototype.memberSelector.select)
    • New release/build schemes breaks references directly from the github web deploy
    • Removed Object.deserialize
    • Removed Object.serialize
    • Removed String.prototype.scan
    • Removed Promise.queue
    • Removed Object.override
• 1.2.1
  • Hotfixes
    • Fix to HTMLTemplateElement.prototype.template that was causing elements to be reversed.
• 1.2
  • Added
    • mvw.core
      • String.scanUntil & String.scanWhile
        • Consolidated common parsing utility functions
      • Object.override
        • Consolidated common mapping utility function
    • mvw.standard
      • HTMLElement.prototype.shown
        • Compliments HTMLElement.prototype.hidden
    • mvw.extended
      • Object.serialize & Object.deserialize
        • JSON-esque
        • type/class resolution
        • instance referencing
      • HTMLInputElement.prototype.autosize
        • Enables auto resizing on a text control
      • Promise.queue
        • Compliments Promise.all, Promise.race
        • Similar to Array.prototype.reduce
        • Redundant of using await in loops
  • Optimizations
    • HTMLTemplateElement.prototype.template
    • Node.prototype.map
    • Element.prototype.attribute
    • Element.prototype.class
  • Cleanup items
    • Updated build to support multiple builds: core, standard, extras
    • Renamed folder structure to match builds
  • Breaking Changes
    • Conforming Element.prototype.attribute extension to remove only on a false value
      • Previously included null/undefined
      • This change enables style activation of attributes
• 1.1
  • Preformance Pass
    • Increased performance at the expense of a bump to caching on elements
    • Switched some RegExp to quicker, manual parsing
  • Support for parameter selectors
    • Selectors can now have parameter statements to define values passed to handlers
    • Example: <input name="field" data-onclick="member1.member2(name, value, value.length)">
  • Added configurability
    • attributePrefix: ('data-') The prefix used to identify mapping attributes
    • attributeDelimiter: ('-') The character used for separating properties in an attribute name
    • memberDelimiter: ('.') The character used for separating properties in a selector
    • selectorDelimiter: ('(') The opening character for parameter queries
    • parameterDelimiter: (',') The character used for separating parameter queries
    • selectorTerminator: (')') The character used marking the end of parameter queries
    • Example: document.body.map(model, {attributePrefix: 'map-'})
  • Breaking changes to ObjectQuery
    • Renamed to MemberQuery
    • Now creates a compiled selector that can be re-evaluated (vs single evaluation)
  • Breaking change to HTMLTemplateElement.prototype.template
    • Reading the template in js now returns the data rather than a content clone.
• 1.0.1
  • Improved naming
    • HTMLElement.prototype.classes -> Element.prototype.class
      • Changed to match the non-plural name change of settings to attribute
      • Less likely to become a future conflict (see (Element.prototype.className)[https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/className])
    • HTMLElement.prototype.settings -> Element.prototype.attribute
      • Changed to better reflect the extensions purpose.
• 1.0.0
  • Hello World
  • Extensions
    • Node.prototype.map
    • HTMLElement.prototype.classes
    • HTMLElement.prototype.settings
    • HTMLTemplateElement.prototype.template
  • Unit Tests: Yep
  • Performance Tests: Nope
