SiteMap class

Wraps a web site as an async tree

This class wraps a web address as an async tree, allowing it to be passed to functions such as crawl.

API #

A tree of values obtained via HTTP/HTTPS calls. These values will be strings for HTTP responses with a MIME text type; otherwise they will be ArrayBuffer instances.

new SiteMap([href])

  • href: string

static async groupBy(iterable, keyFn)

  • iterable: any
  • keyFn: (element: any, index: any) => Promise

Returns: Promise

Groups items from an async iterable into an AsyncMap according to the keys returned by the given function.

async get(key)

  • key: any

Returns: Promise

Returns the value associated with the key, or undefined if there is none.

*keys()

Returns: AsyncIterableIterator

Returns an empty set of keys.

For a variation of SiteMap that can return the keys for a site route, see ExplorableSiteMap.

async clear()

Returns: any

Remove all key/value entries from the map.

This method invokes the keys() and delete() methods.

async delete(key)

  • key: any

Returns: Promise

Removes the entry for the given key, return true if an entry was removed and false if there was no entry for the key.

*entries()

Returns: AsyncIterableIterator<[any, any]>

Returns a new AsyncIterator object that contains a two-member array of [key, value] for each element in the map in insertion order.

This method invokes the keys() and get() methods.

async forEach(callback, [thisArg])

  • callback: (value: any, key: any, thisArg: any) => Promise
  • thisArg: any

Returns: any

Calls callback once for each key/value pair in the map, in insertion order.

This method invokes the entries() method.

async has(key)

  • key: any

Returns: unknown

Returns true if the given key appears in the set returned by keys().

It doesn’t matter whether the value returned by get() is defined or not.

If the requested key has a trailing slash but has no associated value, but the alternate form with a slash does appear, this returns true.

parent

Type: AsyncMap

The parent of this node in a tree.

readOnly

Type: boolean

True if the object is read-only. This will be true if get() has been overridden but set() and delete() have not.

async set(key, value)

  • key: any
  • value: any

Returns: Promise

Sets the value for the given key.

size

Type: Promise

Returns the number of keys in the map.

The size property invokes an overridden keys() to ensure proper behavior in subclasses. Because a subclass may not enforce a direct correspondence between keys() and get(), the size may not reflect the number of values that can be retrieved.

*values()

Returns: AsyncIterableIterator

Returns a new AsyncIterator object that contains the values for each element in the map in insertion order.
