JET Legend

A legend displays an interactive description of symbols, colors, etc used in graphical information representations.

Accessibility

To make your component accessible, the application is required to include contextual information for screender readers using one or more the following methods as appropriate:
  • aria-describedby
  • aria-labelledby
  • aria-label
  • short-desc property of your items

When setting color, applications are responsible for making sure that the color meets the minimum contrast ratio

If your application has custom keyboard and touch shortcuts implemented for the component, these shortcuts can conflict with those of the component. It is the application's responsibility to disclose these custom shortcuts, possibly via a datatip or help popup.

In the case of the text truncating, applications should provide the untruncated string or contextual text to the datatip to make the component accessible.

Performance

Shaped Data

As a rule of thumb, it's recommended that applications use shaped data if possible for performance gains.

Keyboard

Key Action
Tab Move focus to next element.
Shift + Tab Move focus to previous element.
UpArrow Move focus to previous item.
DownArrow Move focus to next item.
LeftArrow Move focus to previous item (on left).
RightArrow Move focus to next item (on right).
Enter or Space Hides or unhides the data associated with the current item.

Touch End User Information

Target Gesture Action

Usage

Signature:

interface CLegendElement<K extends string | number,D extends Item<K> | Section<K> | any>

Note: Application logic should not interact with the component's properties or invoke its methods until the BusyContext indicates that the component is ready for interaction.


Slots

JET components that allow child content support slots. Please see the slots section of the JET component overview doc for more information on allowed slot content and slot types.

itemTemplate

The itemTemplate slot is used to specify the template for creating items of the legend. The slot content must be wrapped in a <template> element. The content of the template should be a single <oj-c-legend-item> element. See the oj-c-legend-item doc for more details.

When the template is executed for each area, it will have access to the components's binding context containing the following properties:

  • $current - an object that contains information for the current node. (See the table below for a list of properties available on $current)
  • alias - if 'data-oj-as' attribute was specified, the value will be used to provide an application-named alias for $current.
Properties of $current:
Name Type Description
data D The data object of the current item.
index number The zero-based index of the current item relative to the parent.
key K The key of the current item.
parentData Array<D> An array of data objects of the outermost to innermost parents of the node
parentKey K The key of the parent node

sectionTemplate

The sectionTemplate slot is used to specify the template for creating sections of the legend. The slot content must be wrapped in a <template> element. The content of the template should be a single <oj-c-legend-section> element. See the oj-c-legend-section doc for more details.

When the template is executed for each area, it will have access to the components's binding context containing the following properties:

  • $current - an object that contains information for the current node. (See the table below for a list of properties available on $current)
  • alias - if 'data-oj-as' attribute was specified, the value will be used to provide an application-named alias for $current.
Properties of $current:
Name Type Description
data D The data object of the current section.
index number The zero-based index of the current section.
key K The key of the current section.

Attributes

data :(DataProvider.<K, D>|null)

The DataProvider for the sections and items of the legend. It should provide a data tree where each node in the data tree corresponds to a section or item in the legend. Nodes that are leaves will be treated as items. The row key will be used as the id for legend sections and items. Note that when using this attribute, a template for the itemTemplate and optionally sectionTemplate slots should be provided. The DataProvider can either have an arbitrary data shape, in which case an element (and an element for hierarchical data) must be specified in the itemTemplate (and sectionTemplate) slot or it can have oj.ojCLegend.Item (and oj.ojCLegend.Section) as its data shape, in which case no template is required.
