Context Data

  • Type: object
  • Origin: Component Context
  • Availability: client
  • readonly in client context

It gives you information about the element dataset.

You can use this key to avoid polluting your DOM with invalid attributes.

💡 This helps Nullstack set attributes without wasting time validating them.

Any data-* attributes will receive a respective camelized key on the data object when passed to an event context.

The kebab version is also available in the context.

import Nullstack from 'nullstack';

class ContextData extends Nullstack {

  count = 1;

  calculate({data}) {
    this.count = this.count * data.multiply + data.sum;
  }
  
  render({data}) {
    return (
      <div> 
        <button onclick={this.calculate} data-multiply={3} data={{sum: 2}}>
          Calculate
        </button>
      </div>
    )
  }

}

export default ContextData;

💡 Camelized keys from the data object will result in kebab attributes in the DOM.
