Introduction
A lot of Javascript tips, tricks, and code snippets are widely available, but not always even easily accessible. In this series, I will post on a regular basis helpful code snippets, tips, tricks that I used or find useful for JS-development
Snippet 1 - RGB to Hex
Transforming an RGB-color value to a hexadecimal value is an easy task if you only have one color to convert, and a browser to find an online RGB(a) to hex transforming tool. But when you have multiple RGB values to convert, the next snippet makes life a lot easier.
function rgbToHex(r, g, b) {
return ((r << 16) + (g << 8) + b).toString(16).padStart(6, "0");
}
Snippet 2 - Array to HTML List
A short snippet to visualize array items into a HTML ordered or unordered list where the list items are dynamically added to the <ol></ol>
or <ul></ul>
tags
function arrayToHTMLList(array, listId) {
let el = document.querySelector("#" + listID);
return el.innerHTML += arr.map((item) => `<li>${item}</li>`).join("");
}
Snippet 3 - Is bottom of page visible
Web-development sometimes requires you to trigger a set of events when the bottom of the page is reached. The boolean that is returned from the following function will let you know if the user has reached the bottom of the page or not.
function isBottomOfPageVisible() {
return document.documentElement.clientHeight + window.scrollY >=
(document.documentElement.scrollHeight || document.documentElement.clientHeight);
}
