Keep It Simple JS Library

A Minimal, Modular Javascript library for Modern browsers.

Aims to be fast, small, and easily split into individual modules.

You can create your own library by adding and removing modules from the src directory, and running the "combine.php" script. This will output a "kis-custom.js" file. (Be careful, as the script will overwrite any "kis-custom.js" file that already exists).

Browser support: IE8+, Latest versions of Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera

Basic Use:

  • Function: $_(selector).module.function(params);

Official Modules:

Global: Core functions

properties:

	* el: The html object returned by the selector function.

functions:
			
	* each: For applying changes to every item matched by a selector
		Use:
		 	$_(selector).dom.each(callback);
		 	
		Example : $_(".foo").dom.each(function(e){
					$_(e).dom.text(value);
				  }):
				  
	* ext: For extending the library, adds this.el to the object or function supplied
		Use: $_.ext("name", functionOrObject)
		
		Example: $_.ext("zip", function(){ //function });
					Adds 'zip' function to $_.

	    $_.post(url, data_object, callback);

QS: querystring parsing and serialization for hashbang strings, and pushState urls

functions:
	
	* Parse:
		Use:
		    $_.qs.parse(hb);
	
	* Set: This function will set the hash url if browser doesn't have history.pushState
		Use:
		    $_.qs.set(key, value);
	
	* Get: Retrieves the value of the key in the url string
		Use:
		    $_.qs.get(key);

Store: localstorage wrapper with automatic data serialization

functions:

	* Get:
		Use:
			$_.store.get(key);
	
	* Set
		Use:
			$_.store.set(key, value);
			
	* getALL: Retreives all localstorage data in raw form
		Use:
			$_.store.getAll();

Event: wrapper for applying events to DOM objects

functions: 

	*Add: 
		Use:
		    $_(selector).event.add(event, callback);
		    
	*Remove
		Use:
		    $_(selector).event.remove(event, callback);

DOM: Dom manipulation module

function: 

	*addClass: 
		Use:
		    $_(selector).dom.addClass(className);
		    
	*RemoveClass:
		Use:
		    $_(selector).dom.removeClass(className);
