Element.getAttributeNames returns the attribute names of the element as an Array of strings. If the element has no attributes it returns an empty array.
Using getAttributeNames along with Element.getAttribute, is a memory efficient and performant alternative to accessing Element.attributes.
Syntax
let attributeNames = element.getAttributeNames();
Example
// Iterate over element's attributes
for(let name of element.getAttributeNames())
{
let value = element.getAttribute(name);
console.log(name, value);
}
