Mutation Observer API for Angular

Part of > Web APIs for Angular

This is a library for declarative use of Mutation Observer API with Angular.

Install

If you do not have @ng-web-apis/common:

npm i @ng-web-apis/common

Now install the package:

npm i @ng-web-apis/mutation-observer

Usage

Add MutationObserverModule and then use (waMutationObserver)="onMutation($event)" directive to watch mutation in an element.

Alternatively use an Observable-based MutationObserverService manually to get MutationObserver in an RxJS Observable form.

Configuring

Use attributes on an element to define MutationObserverInit config object. All attributes are boolean meaning no need to explicitly set them to true.

NOTE: Keep in mind these are used one time in constructor so you cannot use binding, only strings. Pass comma separated attribute names to set attributeFilter array.

Example

<div
  subtree
  childList
  characterData
  attributeFilter="title, aria-label"
  [title]="title"
  [attr.aria-label]="label"
  (waMutationObserver)="onMutation($event)"
>
  ...
</div>

Angular Universal

If you want to use this package with SSR, you need to mock MutationObserver class on the server. You can use our Universal package for this, see this example.
