Props

  • componentId String
    unique identifier of the component, can be referenced in other components’ react prop.
  • dataField String
    data field to be connected to the component’s UI view. The list items are filtered by a database query on this field. This field is used for doing an aggregation and returns the result. We’re using a .raw multifield here. You can use a field of type keyword or not_analyzed depending on your Elasticsearch cluster.
  • nestedField String [optional]
    use to set the nested mapping field that allows arrays of objects to be indexed in a way that they can be queried independently of each other. Applicable only when dataField is a part of nested type.
  • title String or JSX [optional]
    title of the component to be shown in the UI.
  • size Number [optional]
    control how many items to display in the List. Defaults to 100.
  • sortBy String [optional]
    sort the list items by one of count, asc, desc. Defaults to count, which sorts the list by the frequency of count value, most first.
  • defaultSelected string [optional]
    pre-select an item from the list.
  • selectAllLabel String [optional]
    add an extra Select all item to the list with the provided label string.
  • showRadio Boolean [optional]
    show radio button icon for each list item. Defaults to true.
  • showCount Boolean [optional]
    show count value of the number of occurences besides a list item. Defaults to true.
  • showFilter Boolean [optional]
    show as filter when a value is selected in a global selected filters view. Defaults to true.
  • filterLabel String [optional]
    An optional label to display for the component in the global selected filters view. This is only applicable if showFilter is enabled. Default value used here is componentId.
  • showMissing Boolean [optional]
    defaults to false. When set to true it also retrives the aggregations for missing fields under the label specified by missingLabel.
  • missingLabel String [optional]
    defaults to N/A. Specify a custom label to show when showMissing is set to true.
  • showSearch Boolean [optional]
    whether to show a searchbox to filter the list items locally. Defaults to true.
  • placeholder String [optional]
    placeholder to be displayed in the searchbox, only applicable when the showSearch prop is set to true. When applicable, the default placeholder value is set to “Search”.
  • URLParams Boolean [optional]
    enable creating a URL query string parameter based on the selected value of the list. This is useful for sharing URLs with the component state. Defaults to false.

  • renderItem Function|scoped-slot [optional]
    customize the rendered list via a function or scoped-slot which receives the item label, count and isChecked & expects a JSX or String back. For example:

    renderItem={({ label, count }) => (
<div>
    {label}
    <span style={{ marginLeft: 5, color: 'dodgerblue' }}>
        {count}
    </span>
</div>
)}

    or

    <template slot="renderItem" scoped-slot="{ label, count }">
<div>
    {{label}}
    <span :style="{ marginLeft: 5, color: 'dodgerblue' }">
        {{count}}
    </span>
</div>
</template>
  • renderError String|Function|scoped-slot [optional] can be used to render an error message in case of any error.
    renderError={error => (
            <div>
                Something went wrong!<br/>Error details<br/>{error}
            </div>
        )
    }

or

   <template slot="renderError" scoped-slot="error">
        <div>
            Something went wrong!<br/>Error details<br/>{{ error }}
        </div>
    </template>
  • transformData Function [optional]
    allows transforming the data to render inside the list. You can change the order, remove, or add items, tranform their values with this method. It provides the data as param which is an array of objects of shape { key: , doc_count: } and expects you to return the array of objects of same shape.

Styles

SingleList component supports innerClass prop with the following keys:

  • title
  • input
  • list
  • radio
  • label
  • count

Extending

SingleList component can be extended to

  1. customize the look and feel with className,
  2. update the underlying DB query with customQuery,
  3. connect with external interfaces using beforeValueChange, valueChange and queryChange,
  4. specify how options should be filtered or updated using react prop.
<single-list
  ...
  className="custom-class"
  :customQuery=`
    function(value, props) {
      return {
        query: {
            match: {
                data_field: "this is a test"
            }
        }
      }
    }`
  :beforeValueChange=`
    function(value) {
      // called before the value is set
      // returns a promise
      return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        // update state or component props
        resolve()
        // or reject()
      })
    }`
  @valueChange=`
    function(value) {
      console.log("current value: ", value)
      // set the state
      // use the value with other js code
    }`
  @queryChange=`
    function(prevQuery, nextQuery) {
      // use the query with other js code
      console.log('prevQuery', prevQuery);
      console.log('nextQuery', nextQuery);
    }`
  // specify how and which options are filtered using `react` prop.
  :react=`{
    "and": ["pricingFilter", "dateFilter"],
    "or": ["searchFilter"]
  }`
/>
  • className String
    CSS class to be injected on the component container.
  • customQuery Function
    is a callback function which accepts component’s current value as a parameter and returns the data query to be applied to the component, as defined in Elasticsearch Query DSL. Note: customQuery is called on value changes in the SingleList component as long as the component is a part of react dependency of at least one other component.
  • defaultQuery Function takes value and props as parameters and returns the data query to be applied to the source component, as defined in Elasticsearch Query DSL. Note: defaultQuery doesn’t get leaked to other components.
  • beforeValueChange Function
    is a callback function which accepts component’s future value as a parameter and returns a promise. It is called everytime before a component’s value changes. The promise, if and when resolved, triggers the execution of the component’s query and if rejected, kills the query execution. This method can act as a gatekeeper for query execution, since it only executes the query after the provided promise has been resolved.

  • react Object
    specify dependent components to reactively update SingleList’s options.

    • key String
      one of and, or, not defines the combining clause.

      • and clause implies that the results will be filtered by matches from all of the associated component states.
      • or clause implies that the results will be filtered by matches from at least one of the associated component states.
      • not clause implies that the results will be filtered by an inverse match of the associated component states.

    • value String or Array or Object

      • String is used for specifying a single component by its componentId.
      • Array is used for specifying multiple components by their componentId.
      • Object is used for nesting other key clauses.

Events

  • queryChange
    is an event which accepts component’s prevQuery and nextQuery as parameters. It is called everytime the component’s query changes. This event is handy in cases where you want to generate a side-effect whenever the component’s query would change.

  • valueChange
    is an event which accepts component’s current value as a parameter. It is called everytime the component’s value changes. This event is handy in cases where you want to generate a side-effect on value selection. For example: You want to show a pop-up modal with the valid discount coupon code when a list item is selected in a “Discounted Price” SingleList.

  • error gets triggered in case of an error and provides the error object, which can be used for debugging or giving feedback to the user if needed.
