Define Component Anatomy
This feature allows you to define the different parts of a component. In this example, a button component is defined with root, icon, and label parts.
const { defineParts } = require('@zag-js/anatomy');
const buttonAnatomy = defineParts({
root: 'button',
icon: 'button__icon',
label: 'button__label'
});
console.log(buttonAnatomy.parts);
Get Part Selectors
This feature allows you to get the CSS selectors for each part of the component. This is useful for styling the component parts consistently.
const { defineParts } = require('@zag-js/anatomy');
const buttonAnatomy = defineParts({
root: 'button',
icon: 'button__icon',
label: 'button__label'
});
const selectors = buttonAnatomy.selectors;
console.log(selectors.root);
console.log(selectors.icon);
console.log(selectors.label);
Extend Component Anatomy
This feature allows you to extend an existing component anatomy with additional parts. In this example, the button anatomy is extended to include an iconWrapper part.
const { defineParts } = require('@zag-js/anatomy');
const buttonAnatomy = defineParts({
root: 'button',
icon: 'button__icon',
label: 'button__label'
});
const iconButtonAnatomy = buttonAnatomy.extend({
iconWrapper: 'button__icon-wrapper'
});
console.log(iconButtonAnatomy.parts);
