Use to display a set of tabs for your docs.

Installation

npm i @doc-blocks/tabs
# or with yarn

Then to use the component in your code just import it!

import { Tabs } from "@fattslug/tabs";
// and with css-modules
import "@fattslug/tabs/dist/main.css";

Usage

The Tabs component handles all state-related logic internally by default, meaning you get all basic tabs functionality out of the box. Remember to provide an id prop to tie the tab title to its content! Feel free to add whatever classes or styles you want to any of the Tabs.x components - they'll be passed down to the div element. Just do this:

const TabbedInterface = () => (
  <Tabs>
    <Tabs.Title id="one">Title 1</Tabs.Title>
    <Tabs.Content id="one">Content for tab 1</Tabs.Content>
    <Tabs.Title id="two">Title 2</Tabs.Title>
    <Tabs.Content id="two">Content for tab 2</Tabs.Content>
  </Tabs>
);

Or with an Array.map():

const TabbedInterface = () => (
  <Tabs>
    {tabs.map((tab) => (
      <React.Fragment key={tab.id}>
        <Tabs.Title id="one">{tab.title}</Tabs.Title>
        <Tabs.Content id="one">{tab.content}</Tabs.Content>
      </React.Fragment>
    ))}
  </Tabs>
);

State Handling

By default, all state is handled internally by the Tabs component. If you'd like to further customize this behavior (e.g. change the default active tab), you can provide an active prop to the Tabs component. You will then have to manage the state outside of the tabs component using the onChange event. Like so:

const ExampleDocs = () => {
  const queryParams = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
  const [activeId, setActiveId] = React.useState(queryParams.get("default"));

  return (
    <Tabs active={activeId || undefined} onChange={setActiveId}>
      <Tabs.Title id="one">Title 1</Tabs.Title>
      <Tabs.Content id="one">Content for tab 1</Tabs.Content>
      <Tabs.Title id="two">Title 2</Tabs.Title>
      <Tabs.Content id="two">Content for tab 2</Tabs.Content>
    </Tabs>
  );
};

onChange Handler

When a user clicks on a Tab, the onChange handler is called. You can make use of this functionality by adding an onChange prop to the <Tabs> wrapper like so:

const TabbedInterface = () => (
  <Tabs onChange={(selectedId) => console.log(selectedId)}>...</Tabs>
);

Active Class

You can apply an activeClassName to each Tabs.Title component. When that title is selected, the specified className will be applied.

const TabbedInterface = () => (
  <Tabs>
    <Tabs.Title id="one" activeClassName={styles.blueBackground}>
      Title 1
    </Tabs.Title>
    <Tabs.Content id="one">Content for tab 1</Tabs.Content>
    <Tabs.Title id="two" activeClassName={styles.redBackground}>
      Title 2
    </Tabs.Title>
    <Tabs.Content id="two">Content for tab 2</Tabs.Content>
  </Tabs>
);

Class Names

className props provided to any Tab component will be passed down to the render element.

A className provided to the Tabs component will be added to the div element which wraps the tab title group. A className provided to the Tabs.Title component will be added to the div element which wraps an individual tab title. A className provided to the Tabs.Content component will be added to the div element which wraps the tab content.
