ArrayPlaceAnchor Interface

A location in a TreeArrayNode.

This API is provided as an alpha preview and may change without notice.

To use, import via fluid-framework/alpha.

For more information about our API support guarantees, see here.

Sealed

This type is "sealed," meaning that code outside of the library defining it should not implement or extend it. Future versions of this type may add members or make typing of readonly members more specific.

Signature

/** @sealed */
export interface ArrayPlaceAnchor

Remarks

Tracks a location even as the array is mutated. How this is adjusted for edits depends on the specific anchor being used. See createArrayInsertionAnchor(node, currentIndex) for one way to create such an anchor.

Signature

get index(): number;

Type: number

Remarks

This value is updated as the array is edited in a way that depends on the specific anchor implementation. This index may take on a value from 0 to the length of the array (inclusive). If used as the index to insert content into the array, this means it can point to any location in the array, including just after the last child.
