Introduction

Modeled after the Range class, the properties and methods are also very similar to the Range class. The main difference is that the start and end points of AstRange must be consecutive child nodes of the same node.

All of the following properties and methods are not available in the Mini and Browser versions.

Properties

startContainer

Expand

type: AstNode
The container of the start point, read-only.

// startContainer (main)
var root = Parser.parse([[a]]bc'),
	{lastChild} = root,
	range = root.createRange();
assert.equal(lastChild, 'bc');
range.setStart(root, 1);
assert.strictEqual(range.startContainer, root);
range.setStart(lastChild, 0);
assert.strictEqual(range.startContainer, lastChild);

startOffset

Expand
