    Class ModelTreeWalker

    Position iterator class. It allows to iterate forward and backward over the document.

    Properties

    boundaries: ModelRange

    Iterator boundaries.

    When the iterator is walking 'forward' on the end of boundary or is walking 'backward' on the start of boundary, then { done: true } is returned.

    If boundaries are not defined they are set before first and after last child of the root node.

    Walking direction. Defaults 'forward'.

    ignoreElementEnd: boolean

    Flag indicating whether iterator should ignore elementEnd tags. If the option is true walker will not return a parent node of the start position. If this option is true each module:engine/model/element~ModelElement will be returned once, while if the option is false they might be returned twice: for 'elementStart' and 'elementEnd'.

    shallow: boolean

    Flag indicating whether iterator should enter elements or not. If the iterator is shallow child nodes of any iterated node will not be returned along with elementEnd tag.

    singleCharacters: boolean

    Flag indicating whether all consecutive characters with the same attributes should be returned as one module:engine/model/textproxy~ModelTextProxy (true) or one by one (false).

    Accessors

    • get position(): ModelPosition

      Iterator position. This is always static position, even if the initial position was a module:engine/model/liveposition~ModelLivePosition live position. If start position is not defined then position depends on #direction. If direction is 'forward' position starts form the beginning, when direction is 'backward' position starts from the end.

      Returns ModelPosition

    Methods

    • Moves tree walker #position to provided position. Tree walker will continue traversing from that position.

      Note: in contrary to ~ModelTreeWalker#skip, this method does not iterate over the nodes along the way. It simply sets the current tree walker position to a new one. From the performance standpoint, it is better to use ~ModelTreeWalker#jumpTo rather than ~ModelTreeWalker#skip.

      If the provided position is before the start boundary, the position will be set to the start boundary. If the provided position is after the end boundary, the position will be set to the end boundary. This is done to prevent the treewalker from traversing outside the boundaries.

      Parameters

      Returns void

    • Moves #position in the #direction skipping values as long as the callback function returns true.

      For example:

      walker.skip( value => value.type == 'text' ); // <paragraph>[]foo</paragraph> -> <paragraph>foo[]</paragraph>
      walker.skip( () => true ); // Move the position to the end: <paragraph>[]foo</paragraph> -> <paragraph>foo</paragraph>[]
      walker.skip( () => false ); // Do not move the position.

      Parameters

      • skip: (value: ModelTreeWalkerValue) => boolean

        Callback function. Gets module:engine/model/treewalker~ModelTreeWalkerValue and should return true if the value should be skipped or false if not.

      Returns void
