makeup-navigation-emitter

makeup-navigation-emitter

A vanilla JavaScript port of jquery-linear-navigation.

Emits custom events based on keyboard navigation of one or two dimensional model.

Experimental

This CommonJS module is still in an experimental state, until it reaches v1.0.0 you must consider all minor releases as breaking changes. Patch releases may introduce new features, but will be backwards compatible.

Install

// via npm
npm install makeup-navigation-emitter

// via yarn
yarn add makeup-navigation-emitter

Example 1

Example support for a roving tabindex model of keyboard navigation.

Note that this module will not change focus, that is the job of an observer such as makeup-roving-tabindex.

<div class="widget">
    <ul>
        <li tabindex="0">Item 0</li>
        <li>Item 1</li>
        <li>Item 2</li>
    </ul>
</div>

const NavigationEmitter = require('makeup-navigation-emitter');

const widgetEl = document.querySelector('.widget');

var emitter = NavigationEmitter.createLinear(widgetEl, 'li'));

widgetEl.addEventListener('navigationModelChange', function(e) {
    console.log(e.detail.fromIndex, e.detail.toIndex);
});

Example 2

Example support for an active descendant model of navigation with focus on ancestor of items.

Note that this module will not highlight the active item, that is the job of an observer such as makeup-active-descendant.

<div class="widget" tabindex="0">
    <ul>
        <li>Item 0</li>
        <li>Item 1</li>
        <li>Item 2</li>
    </ul>
</div>

const NavigationEmitter = require('makeup-navigation-emitter');

const widgetEl = document.querySelector('.widget');

var emitter = NavigationEmitter.createLinear(widgetEl, 'li', { autoInit: -1, autoReset: -1 }));

widgetEl.addEventListener('navigationModelChange', function(e) {
    console.log(e.detail.fromIndex, e.detail.toIndex);
});

Example 3

Example support for an active descendant model of navigation with focus on non-ancestor of items.

Note that this module will not highlight the active item, that is the job of an observer such as makeup-active-descendant.

<div class="widget">
    <input type="text" />
    <ul>
        <li>Item 0</li>
        <li>Item 1</li>
        <li>Item 2</li>
    </ul>
</div>

const NavigationEmitter = require('makeup-navigation-emitter');

const widgetEl = document.querySelector('.widget');

var emitter = NavigationEmitter.createLinear(widgetEl, 'li', { autoInit: -1, autoReset: -1 }));

widgetEl.addEventListener('navigationModelChange', function(e) {
    console.log(e.detail.fromIndex, e.detail.toIndex);
});

Options

• autoInit: specify an integer or -1 for initial index (default: 0)
• autoReset: specify an integer or -1 for index position when focus exits widget (default: null)
• wrap : specify whether arrow keys should wrap/loop (default: false)
• axis : specify 'x' for left/right arrow keys, 'y' for up/down arrow keys, or 'both' (default: 'both')

Methods

• destroy: destroys all event listeners
• reset: will force a reset to the value specified by autoReset

Properties

• items: returns all items that match item selector
• filteredItems: returns filtered items (e.g. non-hidden items)

Events

• navigationModelInit - fired when the model is auto initialised
• navigationModelChange - fired when the index is set by any means other than auto init or auto reset
• navigationModelReset - fired when the model is auto reset

For all 3 events, the event detail object contains the fromIndex and toIndex.

Dependencies

• makeup-exit-emitter
• makeup-key-emitter
• custom-event (for IE)
• nodelist-foreach-polyfill (for IE11)
