Video Component Component

Overview

Here is an overview of the Video_component class:

    
        class Video_component {
            
            constructor (opts = false) { ... }

            get_class_defaults () { ... }

            get_generate_options (options) { ... }

            generate (options = false) { ... }

        }
    

Default Settings

The following object properties and values are all of the defaults for this class:

                                
                                    {
                                        parent: {
                                            attributes: {
                                                class: 'embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9 box-shadow-xs mb-2'
                                            }
                                        },
                                        iframe: {
                                            attributes: {
                                                class: 'embed-responsive-item border-0',
                                                width: '560',
                                                height: '315',
                                                src: 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/jr5yHAZDbm0',
                                                allowfullscreen: ''
                                            }
                                        }
                                    }
                                
                            

Methods

The following class methods allow you to interact with the Video Component 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 { Video_component } from './js/modules/content_components.js';

                                        // create an object with your overrides specified
                                        let video_components_default_settings = {
                                            attributes: {
                                                src: 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/dQw4w9WgXcQ'
                                            }
                                        };

                                        // initialize the class and pass your settings as an argument
                                        let video_components = new Video_component(video_components_default_settings);

                                        // confirm your changes
                                        console.log( video_components.defaults.attributes.src );

                                    </script>
                                
                            

get_class_defaults()

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

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

            // initialize the class and call the method
            console.log( new Video_component().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 { Video_component } from './js/modules/form_components.js';

            // initialize the class and call the method
            console.log( new Video_component().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 { Video_component } from './js/modules/content_components.js';

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

                                        let my_test_settings = {
                                            attributes: {
                                                src: 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/dQw4w9WgXcQ'
                                            }
                                        };

                                        // initialize the class and call the method
                                        console.log( video_components.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 { Video_component } from './js/modules/content_components.js';

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

                                        // set your desired settings for the component elements you're about to generate
                                        let video_component_settings = {
                                            attributes: {
                                                src: 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/dQw4w9WgXcQ'
                                            }
                                        };

                                        // generate the component nodes to spec by passing your settings in
                                        let video_component = video_components.generate( video_component_settings );

                                    </script>
