Ajax Fetch() Data Loader

This small script allows you to insert HTML content and Javascript code retrieved in Ajax with the Javascript Fetch() API

About

The Fetch() Javascript API is a simple and modern way to load dynamic content into a page. Unfortunately if the loaded content contains some Javascript code it will not be interpreted, that is why I provide this script.

Features

• parse the content retrieved with Fetch
• creates an Array with the HTML nodes and the scripts at the end
• parses the Array and:
  • inserts the html nodes in the destination container
  • inserts the javascript into <script /> tags, which allows them to be executed.

Usage/Examples

<script>
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(event) {
        fetch('data.html')
        .then(function (response) {
            return response.text()
        })
        .then(function (html) {
            console.info('content has been fetched from data.html');
            loadData(html, '#ajax-target').then(function (html) {
                console.info('I\'m a callback');
            });
        }).catch((error) => {
            console.log(error);
        });
    });
</script>

Alternatively you can append the fetched content to the HTML container instead of replacing it:

    // first fetch your content like in the first example above, then ...
    // the third "true" argument will append the fetched content into the container instead of replacing its original content.
    loadData(html, '#ajax-target', true).then(function (html) {
        console.info('I\'m a callback');
    });
