fragment.js
A minimalistic tool for easily loading html fragments
Examples
Example
Fragment.js allows you to load html fragments into any element, by just adding a data-fragment
attribute.
<div data-fragment="fragment.html"></div>
Templating example
You can also use it for loading templates with the data-fragment-json
attribute.
Mustache, Handlebars and Underscore
are supported by default and will automatically be used if they're available in the global scope.
But you can just override the window.fragment.render
function if you want to use something else.
<div data-fragment-json="fragment.json">This is {{adjective}}!</div>
HTML as JSON
If the element already has an innerHTML, you only use the data-fragment
attribute, and don't provide a custom renderer;
fragment.js will attempt to render Mustache, Handlebars then Underscore with the innerHTML as input.
<div data-fragment="mustache-fragment.html">{"adjective":"fantastic"}</div>
Combining
Of course, combining the two attributes also works.
<div data-fragment="mustache-fragment.html" data-fragment-json="fragment.json"></div>
Media queries
To only load certain fragments dependning on media queries, use the data-fragment-media
attribute.
<div data-fragment="fragment.html" data-fragment-media="(max-width: 250px)"></div>
Configuring fragment.js
Overriding
To override the attribute names, just change fragment.html
and fragment.json
fragment.html = 'src';
fragment.json = 'json';
<div data-src="mustache-fragment.html" data-json="fragment.json"></div>
JavaScript interface
To manually evaluate an element, or the complete document manually,
set the manual
toggle to true (before including the script).
fragment = { manual: true };
And the following (after including the script)
fragment.evaluate(element); // evaluate just one element
fragment.evaluate(); // evaluate the whole document
Install
Simply use bower.
bower install fragment.js
