ReasonJs.Dom.HtmlElement.value (ReactEventRe.Form.target event)

[chenglou]

@glennsl (since discord is down again. Also, I'm on freenode #reasonml)

Assuming ReactEventRe.Form.target event returns ReasonJs.Dom.element or ReasonJs.Dom.eventTarget, what reason-js function do I use to get the equivalent of myEvent.value? How would it work without unsafe cast to whatever type here?

Element has asHtmlElement and HtmlElement has value.

So if it returns an element:

event
|> ReacEventRe.Form.target
|> Element.asHtmlElement
|> Option.unwrapUnsafely
|> HtmlElement.value

Pretty smooth, huh :D

I'm on my way to bed. Talk to you tomorrow.

If it returns an eventTarget you're screwed. Unsafe way is only way. C'est la vie
