Range Slider

A web component range slider. This is very like the <input type="range" /> element in that it takes a min, a max, and a step attribute but it also takes a low and high. If you subscribe to the input event you will get the low, high, and range (the difference between them) as an object called values.

Usage

All you need is to include this in your document head and it will automatically work when you invoke <range-slider min="0" max="128" low="0" high="128" step="1"></range-slider>

You can create this dynamically like this:

const range = document.createElement('range-slider');
      range.min = 0;
      range.max = 128;
      range.low = 10;
      range.high = 50;
      range.step = 1;
document.body.append(range);

You can subscribe to the returned values by attaching an event listener to the input like so:

range.addEventListener('input', () => {
    console.log(range.values);
});

This will return an object with the low, high, and range (the difference between them) like this:

{
    "low": 0,
    "high": 0,
    "range": 0
}
