                                        blockquote: {
                                            attributes: {
                                                class: 'blockquote'
                                            }
                                        },
                                        paragraph: {
                                            attributes: {
                                                class: 'mb-0'
                                            },
                                            text: ['Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur, adipisicing elit. Aperiam nostrum exercitationem voluptatibus cumque amet dolorem.']
                                        },

                                                class: 'blockquote-footer'
                                            },

                                        }
                                    }
                                
                            

Methods

The following class methods allow you to interact with the Blockquote_with_footer class object.

constructor(opts)

Class constructor with an optional argument expecting an object with class-specific properties/values. Any matching properties passed will override the default values. The constructor function exposes a .defaults object containing various default settings for the component.

                                
                                    <script type="module">
                                    
                                        // import module
                                        import { Blockquote_with_footer } from './js/modules/content_components.js';

                                        // create an object with your overrides specified
                                        let blockquote_default_settings = {
                                            paragraph: {
                                                text: ['The Dude just wanted his rug back.']
                                            },
                                            footer: {
                                                text: ['The Dude']
                                            }
                                        };

                                        // initialize the class and pass your settings as an argument
                                        let blockquotes = new Blockquote_with_footer(blockquote_default_settings);

                                        // confirm your changes
                                        console.log( blockquotes.defaults.attributes.class );

                                    </script>
                                
                            

get_class_defaults()

Returns an object with all of the default properties of the Blockquote_with_footer class.

    
        <script type="module">
        
            // import module
            import { Blockquote_with_footer } from './js/modules/form_components.js';

            // initialize the class and call the method
            console.log( new Blockquote_with_footer().get_class_defaults() );

        </script>
    

Conversely, you can also access the Class defaults directly after initializing the class, and without the get_class_defaults() method:

    
        <script type="module">
        
            // import module
            import { Blockquote_with_footer } from './js/modules/form_components.js';

            // initialize the class and call the method
            console.log( new Blockquote_with_footer().defaults );

        </script>
    

get_generate_options()

Requires an object to be passed as an argument. The argument will override the default settings of the class, but ONLY in the scope of this method. This method is mainly provided for debugging purposes.

                                
                                    <script type="module">
                                    
                                        // import module
                                        import { Blockquote_with_footer } from './js/modules/content_components.js';

                                        // initialize the class and pass your settings as an argument
                                        let blockquotes = new Blockquote_with_footer();

                                        let my_test_settings = {
                                            paragraph: {
                                                text: ['The Dude just wanted his rug back.']
                                            },
                                            footer: {
                                                text: ['The Dude']
                                            }
                                        };

                                        // initialize the class and call the method
                                        console.log( blockquotes.get_generate_options( my_test_settings ) );

                                    </script>
                                
                            

generate()

Takes an optional argument expecting an object with class-specific properties/values. Any matching properties passed will override the default values. This method returns a node list of DOM element(s), configured according to the class defaults and any overridden settings.

                                
                                    <script type="module">
                                    
                                        // import module
                                        import { Blockquote_with_footer } from './js/modules/content_components.js';

                                        // initialize the class and pass your settings as an argument
                                        let blockquotes = new Blockquote_with_footer();

                                        // set your desired settings for the component elements you're about to generate
                                        let blockquote_settings = {
                                            paragraph: {
                                                text: ['The Dude just wanted his rug back.']
                                            },
                                            footer: {
                                                text: ['The Dude']
                                            }
                                        };

                                        // generate the component nodes to spec by passing your settings in
                                        let blockquote = blockquotes.generate( blockquote_settings );

                                    </script>
