Hi there! I've been interested in the Elm Architecture for a while and I've been given permisson from my team to work on a side project to test it out and see if we can start to implement Elm step by step. We are looking to create a more high-performance UI, but it's important that our rendered HTML and JS works with our existing stack of technologies, one of them being e.g. Bootstrap.
*Problem: *I currently have a very specific problem, but will try to avoid the XY problem and abstract it to a more general problem which could be useful for more people. I have the following HTML snippet: <button type="button" class="..." data-toggle="dropdown"> Which I want to translate to elm (snippet): [ button [type' "button, class "...", dataToggle "dropdown"] [] with the latter part of course not doing anything. I know there are some efforts to port bootstrap components <https://github.com/circuithub/elm-bootstrap-dropdown/blob/master/src/Bootstrap/Dropdown.elm> to elm and that I could emulate the same behaviour with an Elm Dropdown. But for compatibility purposes I wish I could just use special Attributes (e.g. "data-toggle", not yet implemented in Elm) to use bootstrap accordingly. *Take on solution:* I tried to look in the elm-source code and write a *dataToggle Attribute *myself, but that did not work. *Question:* Is there a way to just pass attributes to elm and have it compile it to js to include such special Attributes? (Also for example when using React or other frameworks) import Html exposing (Html, button, Attribute) import Html.App as Html import Html.Attributes exposing (..) import Json.Encode as Json ... [ button [class "example", dataToggle "dropdown"] [] ... stringProperty : String -> String -> Attribute msg stringProperty name string = property name (Json.string string) dataToggle : String -> Attribute msg dataToggle value = stringProperty "data-toggle" value Thanks in advance! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
