ko.utils documentation

[robert....@gmail.com]

Hey,

Are there any docs for all the methods in ko.utils.  I would like to start using them, but cant find any solid docs on them.

If there are no official docs, is there a reason why?

Thanks,

I haven't come across any. Some high level explanations you've probably read: http://www.knockmeout.net/2011/04/utility-functions-in-knockoutjs.html

Would be good to write them. The functions in ko.utils are pretty essential for KO dev.

Thanks,

David

ko.utils were built to support the internals of Knockout, so that it is able to have no strict dependencies. The utility functions generally do similar things that can do with libraries like jQuery and Underscore.  

With that said, they are certainly useful and we have discussed the need to provide better API reference documentation.

We use KnockoutJS where I work and we just yesterday discovered that some of the utility functions aren't available in the minified version of the .js :/.  The ones we ran into were the IE version checks.  They simply don't appear to exist in the minified download.  Without adequate documentation, we look at the source, but if the source is lying, then what?

the source is not lying. Only property exported using ko.exportSymbol are avalaible, the others are private
