snabbdom needs to support custom elements
Author: mreinsteinCreated Mar 31, 2025Updated Mar 31, 2025
The barest use case that comes to mind:
import html from 'https://cdn.skypack.dev/snabby''
function appView () {
return html`<structure-diagram @attrs:myarg1="true"> </structure-diagram>`
}This throws an error in snabbdom:
Uncaught NotSupportedError: Failed to execute 'createElement' on 'Document': The result must not have attributes.This error is happening because when snabbdom calls document.createElement('structure-diagram', { attrs: { myarg1: 'true' } }) This fails, because passing attributes is specifically prohibited in the custom elements spec.
