elementThe root DOM element for the fragment.
Returns a jQuery object for this fragment's element. If you pass in a selector string, this method will return a jQuery object, using the current element as its buffer.
For example, calling fragment.$('li')
will return a jQuery object
containing all of the li
elements inside the DOM element of this
fragment.
the jQuery object for the DOM node
Optional
selector: stringa jQuery-compatible selector string
Get the renderable virtual DOM that represents the fragment's view.
This should NOT be overridden by subclasses. Subclasses wishing to define their virtual DOM should override Fragment#view instead.
const fragment = new MyFragment();
m.render(document.body, fragment.render());

The
Fragment
class represents a chunk of DOM that is rendered once with Mithril and then takes over control of its own DOM and lifecycle.This is very similar to the
Component
wrapper class, but is used for more fine-grained control over the rendering and display of some significant chunks of the DOM. In contrast to components, fragments do not offer Mithril's lifecycle hooks.Use this when you want to enjoy the benefits of JSX / VDOM for initial rendering, combined with small helper methods that then make updates to that DOM directly, instead of fully redrawing everything through Mithril.
This should only be used when necessary, and only with
m.render
. If you are unsure whether you need this orComponent, you probably need
Component`.
