MishkaCmsCore.CoreComponents (Mishka CMS Core v0.0.1)

Copy Markdown View Source

Provides core UI components.

At first glance, this module may seem daunting, but its goal is to provide core building blocks for your application, such as tables, forms, and inputs. The components consist mostly of markup and are well-documented with doc strings and declarative assigns. You may customize and style them in any way you want, based on your application growth and needs.

Styling is plain Tailwind CSS only — style components with Tailwind utilities such as flex, bg-*, rounded-*, and text-*. Here are useful references:

  • Tailwind CSS - the foundational framework we build on. You will use it for layout, sizing, flexbox, grid, and spacing.

  • Heroicons - see icon/1 for usage.

  • Phoenix.Component - the component system used by Phoenix. Some components, such as <.link> and <.form>, are defined there.

Summary

Functions

Renders a button with navigation support.

The page's own "+ Add …" button, with the other ways of making one behind a caret beside it.

Renders flash notices.

Renders a header with title.

Renders a Heroicon.

Renders an input with label and error messages.

Renders a data list.

Renders a modal dialog.

Whether a relationship or field holds a value a template can read through.

A roadmap notice: the tip/1 box with a bold title over a line of text, for a part of the admin that is not built yet or that shows sample content in its place.

The chevron of a native <select>, 11px in from its end edge: the right in a left-to-right page, the left in a right-to-left one.

Shows the modal id with the Gervaz form inside it started over as an empty create form, the form's defaults kept — what an "Add" button runs that opens a form modal on the client. form is the form's resource, or its component id when the page mounts it under another one.

A record's site in an admin list: a globe and "Global" for a record every site shares, a server and the site's name otherwise — the Site column the runtime lists draw.

Renders a table with generic styling.

A short tip beside what it explains: a light amber box, a small speech-bubble glyph and small text. The builder's sheets, its SEO tab and a page's settings draw their notes with it.

Translates an error message using gettext.

Translates the errors for a field from a keyword list of errors.

Functions

button(assigns)

Renders a button with navigation support.

Examples

<.button>Send!</.button>
<.button phx-click="go" variant="primary">Send!</.button>
<.button navigate="/">Home</.button>
<.button variant="soft" icon="hero-trash">Remove</.button>

primary is the page's one main action; soft is outlined, for the actions beside it; accent is tinted, for the one of those worth drawing the eye to. icon is a hero icon before the label.

type is the button's HTML type. "submit" is what a button with no type already does, so it is not written into the markup.

Attributes

  • type (:string) - Defaults to "submit". Must be one of "button", "submit", or "reset".
  • class (:string)
  • variant (:string) - Must be one of "primary", "soft", or "accent".
  • icon (:string) - Defaults to nil.
  • Global attributes are accepted. Supports all globals plus: ["href", "navigate", "patch", "method", "download", "name", "value", "disabled"].

Slots

  • inner_block (required)

create_menu(assigns)

The page's own "+ Add …" button, with the other ways of making one behind a caret beside it.

THE MAIN HALF OPENS THE VISUAL EDITOR, because that is what making one usually means now: the editor asks for the two or three things a record cannot exist without and then shows the structure chooser. The long form — every field the resource declares — is still one click away under the caret, for the times somebody wants to fill it in.

The menu is markup, shown by a JS command: nothing behind it needs the server, and a round trip to open a two-item list would be a round trip that changes nothing. Each item closes it, because a JS-shown element keeps a sticky display no later render can clear.

Example

<.create_menu
  id="add-page"
  label="+ Add Page"
  navigate="/admin/dashboard/runtime/builder/page"
  modal="page-form-modal"
>
  <:way id="pb-create-form-page" label="Create with the full form" modal>
    Every field this resource has, on one form.
  </:way>
  <:way id="pb-create-open-page" label="Fill in the form, then open the editor" event="create_and_open">
    The same form, and the editor opens on what it saved.
  </:way>
</.create_menu>

A :navigate way is a link and leaves; an :event way pushes that event to THIS page and then opens the modal, so the page can remember what was asked for by the time the save arrives; a modal way just opens it.

Attributes

  • id (:string) (required)
  • label (:string) (required)
  • navigate (:string) (required) - where the main half goes — the visual editor.
  • modal (:string) (required) - the create modal the caret's items can open.

Slots

  • way - one other way to create, drawn under the caret. Accepts attributes:
    • label (:string) (required)
    • modal (:boolean) - the item opens the create modal.
    • event (:string) - an event this page handles, and then the modal opens.
    • navigate (:string) - a path — the item is a link and leaves.
    • id (:string)

flash(assigns)

Renders flash notices.

Examples

<.flash kind={:info} flash={@flash} />
<.flash kind={:info} phx-mounted={show("#flash")}>Welcome Back!</.flash>

Attributes

  • id (:string) - the optional id of flash container.
  • flash (:map) - the map of flash messages to display. Defaults to %{}.
  • title (:string) - Defaults to nil.
  • kind (:atom) - used for styling and flash lookup. Must be one of :info, or :error.

  • actions

hide(js \\ %JS{}, selector)

hide_modal(js \\ %JS{}, id)

icon(assigns)

Renders a Heroicon.

Heroicons come in three styles – outline, solid, and mini. By default, the outline style is used, but solid and mini may be applied by using the -solid and -mini suffix.

You can customize the size and colors of the icons by setting width, height, and background color classes.

Icons are extracted from the deps/heroicons directory and bundled within your compiled app.css by the plugin in assets/vendor/heroicons.js.

Examples

<.icon name="hero-x-mark" />
<.icon name="hero-arrow-path" class="ms-1 size-3 motion-safe:animate-spin" />

Attributes

  • name (:string) (required)
  • class (:string) - Defaults to "size-4".

input(assigns)

Renders an input with label and error messages.

A Phoenix.HTML.FormField may be passed as argument, which is used to retrieve the input name, id, and values. Otherwise all attributes may be passed explicitly.

Types

This function accepts all HTML input types, considering that:

  • You may also set type="select" to render a <select> tag

  • type="checkbox" is used exclusively to render boolean values

  • For live file uploads, see Phoenix.Component.live_file_input/1

See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input for more information. Unsupported types, such as hidden and radio, are best written directly in your templates.

Examples

<.input field={@form[:email]} type="email" />
<.input name="my-input" errors={["oh no!"]} />

Attributes

  • id (:any) - Defaults to nil.
  • name (:any)
  • label (:string) - Defaults to nil.

list(assigns)

Renders a data list.

Examples

<.list>
  <:item title="Title">{@post.title}</:item>
  <:item title="Views">{@post.views}</:item>
</.list>

Slots

  • item (required) - Accepts attributes:
    • title (:string) (required)

modal(assigns)

Renders a modal dialog.

Examples

<.modal id="my-modal">
  Modal content
</.modal>

<.modal id="my-modal" show on_cancel={JS.navigate(~p"/")}>
  Modal content
</.modal>

Open programmatically: JS.show(to: "#my-modal"). Close programmatically: JS.exec("data-cancel", to: "#my-modal").

Its rounded box clips what it holds, but not while a control inside is expanded (aria-expanded="true"): a form's relation list opened on the last field ran past the box's bottom edge, and the box cut it off.

Attributes

  • id (:string) (required)
  • show (:boolean) - Defaults to false.
  • on_cancel (Phoenix.LiveView.JS) - Defaults to %Phoenix.LiveView.JS{ops: []}.
  • width_class (:string) - Defaults to "max-w-3xl".
  • padding_class (:string) - Defaults to "p-6".

Slots

  • inner_block (required)

present?(value)

Whether a relationship or field holds a value a template can read through.

A relationship nobody loaded is %Ash.NotLoaded{} and a field a policy hides is %Ash.ForbiddenField{} — structs, so both are truthy, and :if={@record.site} waves them past the guard the loaded record was meant to pass. The read behind it, {@record.site.name}, then raises and takes the LiveView with it. Ask this instead:

<span :if={present?(@record.site)}>{@record.site.name}</span>

roadmap_notice(assigns)

A roadmap notice: the tip/1 box with a bold title over a line of text, for a part of the admin that is not built yet or that shows sample content in its place.

title names what is not available. The inner block says that it is on the roadmap, and what the sample content is, in the caller's own gettext.

Examples

<.roadmap_notice id="pb-ai-roadmap" title={gettext("The AI Assistant is not available yet")}>
  {gettext("This part of the editor is on our roadmap.")}
</.roadmap_notice>

Attributes

  • id (:string) - Defaults to nil.
  • class (:any) - Defaults to nil.
  • title (:string) (required)

Slots

  • inner_block (required)

select_chevron(assigns)

The chevron of a native <select>, 11px in from its end edge: the right in a left-to-right page, the left in a right-to-left one.

Put it after the select inside a relative box. Give the select appearance-none, so the browser draws no arrow of its own, and an end padding of at least pe-8, so the selected text stops before the chevron.

Examples

<div class="relative">
  <select name="size" class="h-9 appearance-none rounded-[9px] border ps-3 pe-8">
    <option>20</option>
  </select>
  <.select_chevron />
</div>

Attributes

  • class (:any) - classes added to the chevron's own. Defaults to nil.

show(js \\ %JS{}, selector)

show_form_modal(js \\ %JS{}, id, form)

Shows the modal id with the Gervaz form inside it started over as an empty create form, the form's defaults kept — what an "Add" button runs that opens a form modal on the client. form is the form's resource, or its component id when the page mounts it under another one.

<button phx-click={show_form_modal("post-form-modal", MyApp.Post)}>Add post</button>

A page that opens the modal from the server sends the form reset: true instead — see MishkaGervaz.Form.Web.Live.

show_modal(js \\ %JS{}, id)

site_cell(assigns)

A record's site in an admin list: a globe and "Global" for a record every site shares, a server and the site's name otherwise — the Site column the runtime lists draw.

<MishkaCmsCore.CoreComponents.site_cell global?={is_nil(r.site_id)} name={r.site && r.site.name} />

Attributes

  • global? (:boolean) (required)
  • name (:string) - Defaults to nil.

</.table>

Attributes

  • id (:string) (required)

    • label (:string)
  • action - the slot for showing user actions in the last table column.

tip(assigns)

A short tip beside what it explains: a light amber box, a small speech-bubble glyph and small text. The builder's sheets, its SEO tab and a page's settings draw their notes with it.

Examples
