Drawer

A container component that slides in from the left or right. Typically containing menus, search or other content.

Installation

npm install @vrembem/drawer

Styles

@use "@vrembem/drawer";

JavaScript

import Drawer from '@vrembem/drawer';
const drawer = new Drawer({ autoInit: true });

Markup

Drawers are composed using classes and data attributes for their triggers. The basic structure of a drawer is an element with an id and drawer class containing a child element with the drawer__dialog class. There are two required structure elements for drawers to work correctly:

drawer-frame: Applied to the parent element wrapping all drawers and the main content.
drawer-main: Applied to the element containing the main content. This should be the last child of the drawer-frame element.

<div class="drawer-frame">

  <aside id="drawer-id" class="drawer">
    <div class="drawer__dialog">
      ...
    </div>
  </aside>

  <div class="drawer-main">
    ...
  </div>

</div>

Drawer triggers are defined using three data attributes:

data-drawer-open: Opens a drawer. Takes the id of the drawer it's meant to open.
data-drawer-close: Closes a drawer. Will close the parent drawer if left value-less. Can also take an id of a drawer to close.
data-drawer-toggle: Toggles a drawer opened or closed. Takes the id of the drawer it's meant to toggle.

<button data-drawer-open="drawer-id">...</button>
<button data-drawer-close="drawer-id">...</button>
<button data-drawer-toggle="drawer-id">...</button>

The dialog element of a drawer is defined using the drawer__dialog class. Along with a role attribute (e.g. role="dialog"), authors should provide drawer dialogs with aria-labelledby and aria-describedby attributes if applicable to further improve accessibility. The aria-modal attribute is applied automatically based on if the drawer is currently in 'modal' mode.

<aside id="drawer-id" class="drawer">
  <div class="drawer__dialog dialog" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="dialog-title" aria-describedby="dialog-description">
    <div class="dialog__header">
      <h2 id="dialog-title">...</h2>
    </div>
    <div class="dialog__body">
      <p id="dialog-description">...</p>
    </div>
    <div class="dialog__footer">
      ...
    </div>
  </div>
</aside>

The dialog component is a great fit for composing a drawer's dialog.

Modal Drawers

To create a modal drawer, apply the drawer_modal modifier.

<aside id="drawer-id" class="drawer drawer_modal">
  ...
</aside>

You can also switch a drawer from 'inline' to 'modal' by changing the collection API mode property:

// Get the drawer object from the collection.
const entry = drawer.get('drawer-id');

// Set it's mode to either 'modal' or 'inline'.
entry.mode = 'modal';

In cases where you'd like a drawer to switch modes based on a specific viewport width, use the data-drawer-breakpoint data attribute with either a width value or a breakpoint key.

<!-- Switches to modal below 1200px viewports -->
<aside id="drawer-id" class="drawer" data-drawer-breakpoint="1200px">
  ...
</aside>

<!-- Switches to modal below "md" breakpoint viewports -->
<aside id="drawer-id" class="drawer" data-drawer-breakpoint="md">
  ...
</aside>

A custom breakpoints object can be passed in using the breakpoints option. Otherwise, breakpoints are resolved by looking up a CSS variable using the passed key (e.g: --vb-breakpoint-[key]).

const drawer = new Drawer({
  breakpoints: {
    xs: '480px',
    sm: '620px',
    md: '760px',
    lg: '990px',
    xl: '1380px'
  }
});

:root {
  --vb-breakpoint-xs: 480px;
  --vb-breakpoint-sm: 620px;
  --vb-breakpoint-md: 760px;
  --vb-breakpoint-lg: 990px;
  --vb-breakpoint-xl: 1380px;
}

While a modal drawer is active, the contents obscured by the modal are made inaccessible to all users via a focus trap. This means that the TAB key, and a screen reader’s virtual cursor (arrow keys) should not be allowed to leave the drawer dialog and traverse the content outside of the dialog. This does not apply to inline drawers.

Focus Management

Drawer dialogs are given focus when opened as long as the setTabindex option is set to true or if the drawer dialog has tabindex="-1" set manually. If focus on a specific element inside a drawer is preferred, give that element the data-focus attribute. Focus is returned to the element that initially triggered the drawer once closed.

<div class="drawer-frame">
  <!-- Focuses the drawer dialog on open -->
  <aside id="drawer-id" class="drawer">
    <div class="drawer__dialog" tabindex="-1">
      ...
    </div>
  </aside>

  <!-- Focuses an inner element on open -->
  <aside id="drawer-id" class="drawer">
    <div class="drawer__dialog">
      <input data-focus type="text">
      ...
    </div>
  </aside>
  
  <div class="drawer-main">
    <!-- Return focus to toggle on close -->
    <button data-drawer-toggle="drawer-id">...</button>
  </div>
</div>

To change the selector used in finding the preferred focus element, pass your own selector via the selectorFocus option (defaults to '[data-focus]').

Drawer State

The state of all drawers are saved to local storage and applied persistently under the VB:DrawerState local storage key. Set store: false to disable the local storage feature. Use storeKey: "CUSTOM-KEY" to change the key that local store is saved under.

Behavior and Accessibility

Drawers while in their modal state follow a set of patterns expected from other modals on the web. Here's what to expect:

When a modal drawer is opened, focus is moved to the dialog or an element inside.
Modal drawers provide standard methods for the user to close such as using the esc key or clicking outside the dialog.
While the modal drawer is active, contents obscured by the modal are inaccessible to all users.
When a modal drawer is closed, focus is returned to the initial trigger element that activated the dialog.

To take full advantage of modal drawer's accessibility features, it's recommended to set the selectorInert option to all elements that are outside the modal (most likely the drawer-main element). All elements that match the selectorInert selector will be given the inert attribute as well as aria-hidden="true" when a modal is opened.

Inert is not currently widely supported by all browsers. Consider using a polyfill such as wicg-inert or Google's inert-polyfill.

Example

Here's an example where we want the drawer-main content area to be inaccessible while drawer modals are open. We also want to disable other scrollable elements using the selectorOverflow option.

const drawer = new Drawer({
  selectorInert: '.drawer-main',
  selectorOverflow: 'body, .drawer-main'
});

await drawer.init();

Modifiers

`drawer_modal`

Applies modal drawer styles to a drawer. To convert a drawer to its modal state after its been registered, set the collection API mode property to 'modal'. Only one modal can be open at a time.

<aside id="drawer-id" class="drawer drawer_modal">
  ...
</aside>

`drawer_switch`

Drawers slide in from the left by default. To create a right side drawer, use the drawer_switch modifier.

<aside id="drawer-right" class="drawer drawer_switch">
  ...
</aside>

Returns

Array An array of collection entries.

`drawer.activeModal`

Returns the currently active modal drawer. Returns undefined if there is no modal drawer open.

Returns

Object || undefined Collection entry.

`drawer.init(options)`

Initializes the drawer instance. During initialization, the following processes are run:

Register each drawer in the collection by running registerCollection().
Sets up global event listeners by running initEventListeners().

Parameters

options [Object] (optional) An options object for passing custom settings.

const drawer = new Drawer();
await drawer.init();

`drawer.destroy()`

Destroys and cleans up the drawer initialization. During cleanup, the following processes are run:

Deregister the drawer collection by running deregisterCollection().
Removes global event listeners by running destroyEventListeners().

const drawer = new Drawer();
await drawer.init();
// ...
await drawer.destroy();

`drawer.initEventListeners()`

Set document event listeners.

const drawer = new Drawer({ eventListeners: false });
await drawer.init();
drawer.initEventListeners();

`drawer.destroyEventListeners()`

Remove document event listeners.

const drawer = new Drawer();
await drawer.init();
// ...
drawer.destroyEventListeners();

`drawer.register(query)`

Parameters

query [String || Object] A drawer ID or an HTML element of either the drawer or its trigger.

Returns

Object The drawer object that got stored in the collection.

const result = await drawer.register('drawer-id');

`drawer.deregister(query)`

Deregister the drawer from the collection. This closes the drawer if it's opened, removes any active media match breakpoints and removes the entry from the collection.

Parameters

query [String || Object] A drawer ID or an HTML element of either the drawer or its trigger.

Returns

Array Returns the newly modified collection array.

const result = await drawer.deregister('drawer-id');
// => Array [{}, {}, ...]

`drawer.registerCollection(items)`

Registers array of drawers to the collection. All drawers in array are run through the register() method.

Parameters

items [Array] An array of drawers or drawer IDs to register.

Returns

Array Returns the collection array.

const drawers = document.querySelectorAll('.drawer');
const result = await drawer.registerCollection(drawers);
// => Array [{}, {}, ...]

`drawer.deregisterCollection()`

Returns

Array Returns the empty collection array.

const result = await drawer.registerCollection();
// => Array []

`drawer.get(value, key)`

Used to retrieve a registered drawer object from the collection. The value should match the key type to search by: e.g. to search by drawer elements, pass the drawer html node with a key of 'el'. Defaults to 'id'.

Parameters

value [String || Object] The value to search for within the collection.
key [String] (optional) (default 'id') The property key to search the value against.
