Struct Element

pub struct Element { /* private fields */ }

Represents an HTML element with its tag name, attributes, and children.

Elements are the building blocks of the RSX tree structure. Each element can have attributes (like class, id, etc.) and can contain other elements or text nodes as children.

You typically won’t create Elements directly, but rather use the rsx! macro:

use simple_rsx::*;

let element = rsx!(
    <div class="container">
        <p>Hello world!</p>
    </div>
);

Implementations

impl Element

pub fn new(tag: &str) -> Node

Creates a new Element node with the specified tag name.

Example

use simple_rsx::*;

let element = Element::new("div");
assert!(matches!(element, Node::Element(_)));

pub fn set_attribute(&mut self, name: &str, value: impl Attribute)

Sets an attribute on the element.

Example

use simple_rsx::*;

let mut node = Element::new("div");
let mut element = node.as_element_mut().unwrap();
element.set_attribute("class", "container");

pub fn append_child(&mut self, node: Node)

Adds a child node to this element.

Example

use simple_rsx::*;

let mut parent_node = Element::new("div");
let mut parent = parent_node.as_element_mut().unwrap();
parent.append_child(Element::new("p"));

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Element

fn clone(&self) -> Element

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.
