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); // { root: 'button', icon: 'button__icon', label: 'button__label' }
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); // .button
console.log(selectors.icon); // .button__icon
console.log(selectors.label); // .button__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); // { root: 'button', icon: 'button__icon', label: 'button__label', iconWrapper: 'button__icon-wrapper' }
