Boolean

For various reasons, we may want to convert a value to the Boolean type. Let's start with an example we check that the content of the element is empty.

HTML

<div class="parent">
  <div class="content-1">Lorem Ipsum</div>
  <div class="content-2"></div>
</div>

Config

{
    "isExistContent1": {
        "selector": ".content-1",
        "type": "boolean"
    },
    "isExistContent2": {
        "selector": ".content-2",
        "type": "boolean"
    },
}

// or use this shortcut

{
    "isExistContent1": ".content-1 | boolean",
    "isExistContent2": ".content-2 | boolean"
}

Output

{
    "isExistContent1": true,
    "isExistContent2": false,
}
