## Install

### NPM:

```sh
npm install easycontext
```

### CDN:

```html

```

## Usage

### Import as module:

```javascript
import { contextmenu } from 'easycontext';
```

### Or when using the CDN:

```javascript
const { contextmenu } = easycontext;
```

### Use

Use `contextmenu` for selecting one or more HTMLElements to append a context menu to.
You can it one ore more HTMLElements, a selector string or a NodeList. It uses [Universal Element Accept](https://github.com/CompactJS/uea) under the hood.

### Example:

```javascript
contextmenu('#my-button', [
{
text: 'This is a button',
onClick() {
console.log('Do something');
},
},
]);

// you can also use a funtion to dynamically generate menu items:
contextmenu('button', (target) => {
return target.classList.contains('removable')
? [
{
text: 'Remove',
onClick() {
target.parentElement.removeChild(target);
},
},
]
: [
{
text: 'This is not clickable',
},
];
});

// you can also just add a context menu to everything
contextmenu(document, [
{
text: 'Reload page',
onClick() {
window.location.reload();
},
},
]);
```

### Doc:

```typescript
/**
* Creates a context menu for given element(s) / selector string
* @param element Single HTMLElement, Array or query selector string (using @compactjs/uea)
* @param items Menu items or function that returns menu items
* @param options Additional Options
*/
function contextmenu(
element: string | HTMLElement | HTMLElement[] | HTMLCollection | NodeList,
items: MenuItem[] | ((target: HTMLElement) => MenuItem[]),
options?: MenuOptions
): void;

interface MenuItem {
/**
* Menu item text, can also be HTML
*/
text?: string;
/**
* A custom classname
*/
className?: string;
/**
* Function that is called when item is clicked.
* Not clickable, when omitted.
*/
onClick?: (event: Event) => void;
}

interface MenuOptions {
/**
* Parent element for the menu element to append to
* @default document.body
*/
parentElement: HTMLElement;
/**
* Document Root, internaly used for adding a click listener to hide context menu.
* @default document
