| 1 | +# dropdown |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +A `dropdown` block is used to create different types of dropdowns. It allows to manage state, behavior and appearance of dropdowns. Block consist of two components – the control component and the popup window (`popup` block). Popup window is displayed in front of all other page elements. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +On mouse click over control component it shows the popup window (toggles `_visible` modifier for the `popup` block). |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +Depending on a `_switcher` modifier value, either link, pseudo link or button can be used as a control component. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +## Valid block's attributes |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +Valid block's attributes can be specified in a corresponding fields of block's BEMJSON declaration: |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +<table> |
| 15 | + <tr> |
| 16 | + <th align="center">Attributes</th> |
| 17 | + <th align="center">Type</th> |
| 18 | + <th align="center">Description</th> |
| 19 | + </tr> |
| 20 | + <tr> |
| 21 | + <td>switcher</td> |
| 22 | + <td><code>String|BEMJSON</code></td> |
| 23 | + <td>Label for the control component. May contain a string with the text label or BEMJSON notation of nested BEM-entities. For example, it allows to wrap the control component with other block or pass it an additional attribute values.</td> |
| 24 | + </tr> |
| 25 | + <tr> |
| 26 | + <td>popup</td> |
| 27 | + <td><code>String|BEMJSON</code></td> |
| 28 | + <td>Text value or BEMJSON description of popup window content. In runtime BEMJSON entities will be rendered into HTML.</td> |
| 29 | + </tr> |
| 30 | +</table> |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +Also, BEMJSON declaration can contain an arbitrary fields used for templating. |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +## Block's modifiers |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +### The themes `_theme` |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | + * simple |
| 40 | + * normal |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +If a `_theme` modifier is not set, the browser defaults (`default`) will be applied to block. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +#### default |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +```bemjson |
| 47 | +{ |
| 48 | + block : 'dropdown', |
| 49 | + mods : { switcher : 'link' }, |
| 50 | + switcher : 'link', |
| 51 | + popup : 'Hello, world!' |
| 52 | +} |
| 53 | +``` |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +#### simple |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +```bemjson |
| 59 | +{ |
| 60 | + block : 'dropdown', |
| 61 | + mods : { switcher : 'link', theme : 'simple' }, |
| 62 | + switcher : 'link', |
| 63 | + popup : 'Hello, world!' |
| 64 | +} |
| 65 | +``` |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +#### normal |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +```bemjson |
| 71 | +{ |
| 72 | + block : 'dropdown', |
| 73 | + mods : { switcher : 'link', theme : 'normal' }, |
| 74 | + switcher : 'link', |
| 75 | + popup : 'Hello, world!' |
| 76 | +} |
| 77 | +``` |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +### Control component type `_switcher` |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +Mandatory modifier. It specifies which block to use as a control component. Next types are available: |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +* `_switcher_link` - the pseudo link. `link` block is used as a base of the control component. |
| 85 | +* `_switcher_button` - the button. `button` block is used as a base of the control component. |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +Available for all block themes. |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +```bemjson |
| 90 | +{ |
| 91 | + block : 'dropdown', |
| 92 | + mods : { |
| 93 | + switcher : 'button', |
| 94 | + theme : 'normal', |
| 95 | + size : 'xl' |
| 96 | + }, |
| 97 | + switcher : 'button', |
| 98 | + popup : 'Hello, world!' |
| 99 | +} |
| 100 | +``` |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +### `_disabled` |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +If a `_disabled` modifier is set, the dropdown is displayed but not available for user's actions. |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +For such disabled block an `_opened` state will not be toggled on mouse click. |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +If a `_disabled` modifier set, it prevents the block components from the following actions: |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +* `popup` block – `_visible` modifier toggle; |
| 112 | +* `link` control component – `_focused` state toggle. Link does not obtain focus on mouse click or by `Tab` key press; |
| 113 | +* `button` control component: |
| 114 | + * `_focused` state toggle. Button will not obtain focus on mouse click or by `Tab` key press; |
| 115 | + * `_hovered` state toggle on mouse pointer hover. |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +Available for all block themes. |
| 118 | + |
| 119 | +```bemjson |
| 120 | +{ |
| 121 | + block : 'dropdown', |
| 122 | + mods : { |
| 123 | + switcher : 'button', |
| 124 | + theme : 'normal', |
| 125 | + size : 'xl', |
| 126 | + disabled : true |
| 127 | + }, |
| 128 | + switcher : 'button', |
| 129 | + popup : 'Hello, world!' |
| 130 | +} |
| 131 | +``` |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | +### dropdown's states |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | +#### `_opened` |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +`_opened` modifier toggles automatically on mouse click on the control component. |
| 139 | + |
| 140 | +```bemjson |
| 141 | +{ |
| 142 | + block : 'dropdown', |
| 143 | + mods : { |
| 144 | + switcher : 'button', |
| 145 | + theme : 'normal', |
| 146 | + size : 'xl', |
| 147 | + opened : true |
| 148 | + }, |
| 149 | + switcher : 'button', |
| 150 | + popup : 'Hello, world!' |
| 151 | +} |
| 152 | +``` |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | +Modifier can be removed by re-clicking on the control component or outside popup's window (in case of `_autoclosable` modifier availability for `popup` block). |
| 156 | + |
| 157 | + |
| 158 | +## BEMJSON value of `switcher` and `popup` attributes |
| 159 | + |
| 160 | +As the control component and the popup attributes can contain BEM-entities it can be used for different purposes such as: |
| 161 | + |
| 162 | +* control component warping or modifying; |
| 163 | +* passing additional attribute values to control component; |
| 164 | +* creating nested content in popup window. |
| 165 | + |
| 166 | +For example, you can make a control component's button toggleable: |
| 167 | + |
| 168 | +```bemjson |
| 169 | +{ |
| 170 | + block : 'dropdown', |
| 171 | + mods : { |
| 172 | + switcher : 'button', |
| 173 | + theme : 'normal', |
| 174 | + size : 'xl' |
| 175 | + }, |
| 176 | + switcher : { |
| 177 | + block : 'button', |
| 178 | + mods : { togglable : 'true' }, |
| 179 | + text : 'custom button' |
| 180 | + }, |
| 181 | + popup : 'Popup message' |
| 182 | +} |
| 183 | +``` |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | + |
| 186 | +Or make dropdown list selector based on block: |
| 187 | + |
| 188 | +```bemjson |
| 189 | +{ |
| 190 | + block : 'dropdown', |
| 191 | + mods : { |
| 192 | + switcher : 'button', |
| 193 | + theme : 'normal', |
| 194 | + size : 'xl' |
| 195 | + }, |
| 196 | + switcher : 'Dropdown menu', |
| 197 | + popup : { |
| 198 | + block : 'menu', |
| 199 | + mods : { |
| 200 | + theme : 'normal', |
| 201 | + size : 'xl', |
| 202 | + select : 'check' |
| 203 | + }, |
| 204 | + content : [ |
| 205 | + { |
| 206 | + block : 'menu-item', |
| 207 | + val : 1, |
| 208 | + content : 'First item' |
| 209 | + }, |
| 210 | + { |
| 211 | + block : 'menu-item', |
| 212 | + val : 2, |
| 213 | + content : 'Second item' |
| 214 | + } |
| 215 | + ] |
| 216 | + } |
| 217 | +} |
| 218 | +``` |
| 219 | + |
| 220 | + |
| 221 | +## Dependencies |
| 222 | + |
| 223 | +The `dropdown` block depends on: |
| 224 | + |
| 225 | +* `i-bem__dom` |
| 226 | +* `dom` |
| 227 | +* `popup` |
| 228 | +* `button`/`link` (depending on `_switcher` control component type) |
