Dealing with null and undefined values.

type +'a opt = 'a Js_of_ocaml.Js.opt

Type of possibly null values.

type +'a optdef = 'a Js_of_ocaml.Js.optdef

Type of possibly undefined values.

val null : 'a opt

The null value.

val some : 'a -> 'a opt

Consider a value into a possibly null value.

val undefined : 'a optdef

The undefined value

val def : 'a -> 'a optdef

Consider a value into a possibly undefined value.

module type OPT = Ezjs_min.OPT

Signatures of a set of standard functions for manipulating optional values.

module Opt = Ezjs_min.Opt

Standard functions for manipulating possibly null values.

module Optdef = Ezjs_min.Optdef

Standard functions for manipulating possibly undefined values.

Types for specifying method and properties of Javascript objects

type +'a t = 'a Js_of_ocaml.Js.t

Type of Javascript objects. The type parameter is used to specify more precisely an object.

type +'a meth = 'a Js_of_ocaml.Js.meth

Type used to specify method types: a Javascript object <m : t1 -> t2 -> ... -> tn -> t Js.meth> Js.t has a Javascript method m expecting n arguments of types t1 to tn and returns a value of type t.

type +'a gen_prop = 'a Js_of_ocaml.Js.gen_prop

Type used to specify the properties of Javascript objects. In practice you should rarely need this type directly, but should rather use the type abbreviations below instead.

type 'a readonly_prop = < get : 'a > gen_prop

Type of read-only properties: a Javascript object <p : t Js.readonly_prop> Js.t has a read-only property p of type t.

type 'a writeonly_prop = < set : 'a -> unit > gen_prop

Type of write-only properties: a Javascript object <p : t Js.writeonly_prop> Js.t has a write-only property p of type t.

type 'a prop = < get : 'a ; set : 'a -> unit > gen_prop

Type of read/write properties: a Javascript object <p : t Js.writeonly_prop> Js.t has a read/write property p of type t.

type 'a optdef_prop = < get : 'a optdef ; set : 'a -> unit > gen_prop

Type of read/write properties that may be undefined: you can set them to a value of some type t, but if you read them, you will get a value of type t optdef (that may be undefined).

Object constructors

type +'a constr = 'a Js_of_ocaml.Js.constr

A value of type (t1 -> ... -> tn -> t Js.t) Js.constr is a Javascript constructor expecting n arguments of types t1 to tn and returning a Javascript object of type t Js.t. Use the syntax extension new%js c e1 ... en to build an object using constructor c and arguments e1 to en.

Callbacks to OCaml

type (-'a, +'b) meth_callback = ('a, 'b) Js_of_ocaml.Js.meth_callback

Type of callback functions. A function of type (u, t1 -> ... -> tn -> t) meth_callback can be called from Javascript with this bound to a value of type u and up to n arguments of types t1 to tn. The system takes care of currification, so less than n arguments can be provided. As a special case, a callback of type (t, unit -> t) meth_callback can be called from Javascript with no argument. It will behave as if it was called with a single argument of type unit.

type 'a callback = (unit, 'a) meth_callback

Type of callback functions intended to be called without a meaningful this implicit parameter.

val wrap_callback : ('a -> 'b) -> ('c, 'a -> 'b) meth_callback

Wrap an OCaml function so that it can be invoked from Javascript.

val wrap_meth_callback : ('b -> 'a) -> ('b, 'a) meth_callback

Wrap an OCaml function so that it can be invoked from Javascript. The first parameter of the function will be bound to the value of the this implicit parameter.

val strict_equals : _ t -> _ t -> bool

type match_result_handle = Js_of_ocaml.Js.match_result_handle

Convenience coercion functions

val coerce : 'a -> ('a -> 'b Opt.t) -> ('a -> 'b) -> 'b

Apply a possibly failing coercion function. coerce v c f attempts to apply coercion c to value v. If the coercion returns null, function f is called.

val coerce_opt : 'a Opt.t -> ('a -> 'b Opt.t) -> ('a -> 'b) -> 'b

Apply a possibly failing coercion function. coerce_opt v c f attempts to apply coercion c to value v. If v is null or the coercion returns null, function f is called. Typical usage is the following:

Js.coerce_opt (Dom_html.document##getElementById id)
Dom_html.CoerceTo.div (fun _ -> assert false)

Type checking operators.

val typeof : _ t -> js_string t

Returns the type of a Javascript object.

val instanceof : _ t -> _ constr -> bool

Tests whether a Javascript object is an instance of a given class.

Debugging operations.

val debugger : unit -> unit

Invokes any available debugging functionality. If no debugging functionality is available, it has no effect. In practice, it will insert a "debugger;" statement in the generated javascript.

Export functionality.

Export values to module.exports if it exists or to the global object otherwise.

val export : string -> 'a -> unit

export name value export name

val export_all : 'a t -> unit

Deprecated functions and types.

val string_of_error : error t -> string
  • deprecated [since 4.0] Use [Js_error.to_string] instead.
val raise_js_error : error t -> 'a
  • deprecated [since 4.0] Use [Js_error.raise_] instead.
val exn_with_js_backtrace : exn -> force:bool -> exn

Attach a JavasScript error to an OCaml exception. if force = false and a JavasScript error is already attached, it will do nothing. This function is useful to store and retrieve information about JavaScript stack traces.

Attaching JavasScript errors will happen automatically when compiling with --enable with-js-error.

  • deprecated [since 4.0] Use [Js_error.raise_] instead.
val js_error_of_exn : exn -> error t opt

Extract a JavaScript error attached to an OCaml exception, if any. This is useful to inspect an eventual stack strace, especially when sourcemap is enabled.

  • deprecated [since 4.0] Use [Js_error.of_exn] instead.
exception Error of error t

The Error exception wrap javascript exceptions when caught by OCaml code. In case the javascript exception is not an instance of javascript Error, it will be serialized and wrapped into a Failure exception.

  • deprecated [since 4.0] Use [Js_error.Exn] instead.
type float_prop = number_t prop
  • deprecated [since 2.0].
