Path

A Path is a list of indexes that describe a node's exact position in a Plate node tree. Although they are usually relative to the root Editor object, they can be relative to any Node object.

Copytype Path = number[];

operationCanTransformPath

Check if an operation can affect paths (used as an optimization for dirty-path updates during normalization).

transform

Transform a path by an operation.

ancestors

Get a list of ancestor paths for a given path.

child

Get a path to a child at the given index.

common

Get the common ancestor path of two paths.

compare

Compare a path to another, returning an integer indicating whether the path was before, at, or after the other.

endsAfter

Check if a path ends after one of the indexes in another.

endsAt

Check if a path ends at one of the indexes in another.

endsBefore

Check if a path ends before one of the indexes in another.

equals

Check if a path is exactly equal to another.

firstChild

Get a path to the first child of a path.

hasPrevious

Check if the path of a previous sibling node exists.

isAfter

Check if a path is after another.

isAncestor

Check if a path is an ancestor of another.

isBefore

Check if a path is before another.

isChild

Check if a path is a child of another.

isCommon

Check if a path is equal to or an ancestor of another.

isDescendant

Check if a path is a descendant of another.

isParent

Check if a path is the parent of another.

isPath

Check if a value implements the Path interface.

isSibling

Check if a path is a sibling of another.

lastIndex

Get the last index of a path.

levels

Get a list of paths at every level down to a path.

next

Get the path to the next sibling node.

parent

Get the path to the parent node.

previous
