You can declaratively sets any IDL and attribute of the given element. Function prefers IDL and fallback to the <code>element.setAttribute</code> if there is no writable property in the element prototype.</p><p>You can study all JavaScript elements interfaces to the corresponding HTML elements. All HTML elements inherits from <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLElement">HTMLElement</a>. To see all available IDLs for example for paragraphs, see <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLParagraphElement">HTMLParagraphElement</a>. Moreover, the <code>assign</code> provides a&nbsp;way to sets declaratively some convenient properties:</p><ul><li>It is possible to sets <code>data-*</code>/<code>aria-*</code> attributes using object notation.</li><li>In opposite, it is also possible to sets <code>data-*</code>/<code>aria-*</code> attribute using camelCase notation.</li><li>You can use string or object as a&nbsp;value for <code>style</code> property.</li><li><code>className</code> (IDL – preffered)/<code>class</code> are ways to add CSS class to the element. You can use string (similarly to <code>class="…"</code> syntax in HTML) or array of strings. This is handy to concat conditional classes.</li><li>Use <code>classList</code> to toggle specific classes. This will be handy later when the reactivity via signals is beeing introduced.</li><li>The <code>assign</code> also accepts the <code>undefined</code> as a&nbsp;value for any property to remove it from the element declaratively. Also for some IDL the corresponding attribute is removed as it can be confusing. <em>For example, natievly the element’s <code>id</code> is removed by setting the IDL to an empty string.</em></li><li>You can use <code>=</code> or <code>.</code> to force processing given key as attribute/property of the element.</li></ul><p>For processing, the <code>assign</code> internally uses <code>assignAttribute</code> and <code>classListDeclarative</code>.</p><!--<dde:mark type="component" name="example" host="this" ssr/>--><div id="code-4fa3z" class="example"><!--<dde:mark type="component" name="code" host="parentElement" ssr/>--><code class="language-js">import { assign, assignAttribute, classListDeclarative } from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/jaandrle/deka-dom-el/dist/esm-with-signals.js";

This way is possible to extends you templates by additional (3rd party) functionalities.

You can declaratively sets any IDL and attribute of the given element. Function prefers IDL and fallback to the <code>element.setAttribute</code> if there is no writable property in the element prototype.</p><p>You can study all JavaScript elements interfaces to the corresponding HTML elements. All HTML elements inherits from <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLElement">HTMLElement</a>. To see all available IDLs for example for paragraphs, see <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLParagraphElement">HTMLParagraphElement</a>. Moreover, the <code>assign</code> provides a&nbsp;way to sets declaratively some convenient properties:</p><ul><li>It is possible to sets <code>data-*</code>/<code>aria-*</code> attributes using object notation.</li><li>In opposite, it is also possible to sets <code>data-*</code>/<code>aria-*</code> attribute using camelCase notation.</li><li>You can use string or object as a&nbsp;value for <code>style</code> property.</li><li><code>className</code> (IDL – preffered)/<code>class</code> are ways to add CSS class to the element. You can use string (similarly to <code>class="…"</code> syntax in HTML) or array of strings. This is handy to concat conditional classes.</li><li>Use <code>classList</code> to toggle specific classes. This will be handy later when the reactivity via signals is beeing introduced.</li><li>The <code>assign</code> also accepts the <code>undefined</code> as a&nbsp;value for any property to remove it from the element declaratively. Also for some IDL the corresponding attribute is removed as it can be confusing. <em>For example, natievly the element’s <code>id</code> is removed by setting the IDL to an empty string.</em></li><li>You can use <code>=</code> or <code>.</code> to force processing given key as attribute/property of the element.</li></ul><p>For processing, the <code>assign</code> internally uses <code>assignAttribute</code> and <code>classListDeclarative</code>.</p><!--<dde:mark type="component" name="example" host="this" ssr/>--><div id="code-example-1-iro9ncxa4bc" class="example"><!--<dde:mark type="component" name="code" host="parentElement" ssr/>--><code class="language-js">import { assign, assignAttribute, classListDeclarative } from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/jaandrle/deka-dom-el/dist/esm-with-signals.js";
