FOLDERS	CONTENTS
`/demos`	The folder contains quick-start demo files. It is recommended that you open them through a web server instead of folder from the file system, because that approach breaks the Ajax data requests.
`/source/modules/`	Contains the javascript modules.
`/source/components/`	Contains the Web Components with Shadow DOM enabled by default. All required CSS files are included.
`/source/styles`	Consists of the minified CSS files and theme images.
`/scripts`	Consists of javascript files used in the demos.
`/images`	Consists of images files used in the demos.

Getting Started with a Web Component

Smart UI for Web Components is distributed as smart-webcomponents NPM package. You can also get the full download from our website with all demos from the Download page.

Setup the Web Component

Smart UI for Web Components is distributed as smart-webcomponents NPM package

Download and install the package.
```
npm install smart-webcomponents
```

Once installed, import the Web Component's module in your application.

<script type="module" src="node_modules/smart-webcomponents/source/modules/smart.accordion.js"></script>

Adding CSS reference

The smart.default.css CSS file should be referenced using following code.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="node_modules/smart-webcomponents/source/styles/smart.default.css" />

Add the Web Component's tag to your Web Page

<smart-accordion id="accordion">
 	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 1" content="Content 1" expanded></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 2" content="Content 2"></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 3" content="Content 3"></smart-accordion-item>  
 </smart-accordion>

Create the Accordion Component

	<script type="module">
		Smart('#accordion', class {
			get properties() {
				return {"expandMode":"multiple"}
			}
		});
	</script>

Another option is to create the Accordion is by using the traditional Javascript way:

	const accordion = document.createElement('smart-accordion');

	accordion.disabled = true;
	document.body.appendChild(accordion);

Smart framework provides a way to dynamically create a web component on demand from a DIV tag which is used as a host. The following imports the web component's module and creates it on demand, when the document is ready. The #accordion is the ID of a DIV tag.

	import "../../source/modules/smart.accordion.js";

	document.readyState === 'complete' ? init() : window.onload = init;

	function init() { 
		const accordion = new Smart.Accordion('#accordion', {"expandMode":"multiple"});
	}

Open the page in your web server.

Load scripts

The following code adds the custom element to the page.

<!DOCTYPE html>
	<html lang="en">
	<head>
	 <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../source/styles/smart.default.css" type="text/css" />
	 <script type="text/javascript" src="../../source/modules/smart.accordion.js"></script>
	</head>
	<body>
	 <smart-accordion>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 1" content="Content 1" expanded></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 2" content="Content 2"></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 3" content="Content 3"></smart-accordion-item>  
	 </smart-accordion>
	</body>
	</html>

Demo

Note how smart.element.js is declared before everything else. This is mandatory for all custom elements.

Remove all items

. To remove all items, we can use that:

	const items = [...document.querySelectorAll('smart-accordion-item')];
    items.forEach(item => item.remove());

Appearance

The element contains items of type smart-accordion-item. Each item has:

label - used as header part in the accordion item. The content part could be toggled on label's click.
content - the content part of the item. It could be HTML or plain text.

The user can add/remove/update items via insert, remove and update methods:

<!DOCTYPE html>
	<html lang="en">
	<head>
	 <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../source/styles/smart.defaut.css" type="text/css" />
	 <script type="text/javascript" src="../../source/modules/smart.accordion.js"></script>
	 <script>
	 window.onload = function () {
		const accordion = document.querySelector('smart-accordion');
		accordion.insert(0, { "label": "New label", "content": "New content" });
		accordion.update(1, { "label": "Updated label 1", "content": "Updated content 1 " });
		accordion.remove(2);
	 }
	 </script>
	</head>
	<body>
	 <smart-accordion>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 1" content="Content 1" expanded></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 2" content="Content 2"></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 3" content="Content 3"></smart-accordion-item>  
	 </smart-accordion>
	</body>
	</html>

Demo

Behavior

User can expand/collapse items according to the current expandMode:

'single' - only one item can be expanded. If the expanded item's height is greater than the value of the height property, a vertical scrollbar is shown.
'singleFitHeight' - only one item can be expanded. If the expanded item's height is greater than the value of the height property, a vertical scrollbar is shown inside the content of the expanded item.
'multiple' - multiple items can be expanded. If the expanded item's height is greater than the value of the height property, a vertical scrollbar is shown.
'toggle' - only one item can be expanded. The expanded item can also be collapsed. If the expanded item's height is greater than the value of the height property, a vertical scrollbar is shown.
'none' - no items can be expanded/collapsed.

On initialization expanded items could be defined as an array in expandedIndexes property. If the expand mode allows single expanded item the array is limited to the first value and this index is expanded.

 <smart-accordion expand-mode="multiple" expanded-indexes="[0,1]">
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 1" content="Content 1" expanded></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 2" content="Content 2"></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 3" content="Content 3"></smart-accordion-item>  
	 </smart-accordion>

Demo

smart-accordion has expand and collapse methods.

Here's how to expand and collapse items:

<!DOCTYPE html>
	<html lang="en">
	<head>
	 <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../source/styles/smart.default.css" type="text/css" />
	 <script type="text/javascript" src="../../source/modules/smart.accordion.js"></script>
	 <script>
	 window.onload = function () {
		let accordion = document.querySelector('smart-accordion');
		accordion.expandMode = 'multiple';
		accordion.expand(1);
		accordion.expand(2);
		accordion.collapse(0);
	 }
	 </script>
	</head>
	<body>
	 <smart-accordion>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 1" content="Content 1" expanded></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 2" content="Content 2"></smart-accordion-item>
	  <smart-accordion-item label="Item 3" content="Content 3"></smart-accordion-item>  
	 </smart-accordion>
	</body>
	</html>

The animation class added in Smart.Accordion, produces smooth animation in the transition between expanded and collapsed state of the accordion items. The speed of the animation is defined in --smart-accordion-animation-duration CSS variable.

Manipulating the content

The element offers the following methods about item's manipulations:

insert - sets the menu to maximized mode.

 <script>
		 window.onload = function () {
			 const accordion = document.querySelector('smart-accordion');
			 accordion.insert(0, { "label": "New label", "content": "New content" });
		 }
	 </script>

update - sets the menu to maximized mode.

 <script>
		 window.onload = function () {
			 const accordion = document.querySelector('smart-accordion');
			 accordion.update(0, { "label": "Updated label 0", "content": "Updated content 0 " });
		 }
	 </script>

remove - sets the menu to maximized mode.

 <script>
		 window.onload = function () {
			 const accordion = document.querySelector('smart-accordion');
			 accordion.remove(0);
		 }
	 </script>

Create, Append, Remove, Get/Set Property, Invoke Method, Bind to Event

Create a new element:

	const accordion = document.createElement('smart-accordion');

Append it to the DOM:

	document.body.appendChild(accordion);

Remove it from the DOM:

	accordion.parentNode.removeChild(accordion);

Set a property:

	accordion.propertyName = propertyValue;

Get a property value:

	const propertyValue = accordion.propertyName;

Invoke a method:

	accordion.methodName(argument1, argument2);

Add Event Listener:

	const eventHandler = (event) => {
	   // your code here.
	};

	accordion.addEventListener(eventName, eventHandler);

Remove Event Listener:

	accordion.removeEventListener(eventName, eventHandler, true);

Using with Typescript

Smart Web Components package includes TypeScript definitions which enables strongly-typed access to the Smart UI Components and their configuration.

Inside the download package, the typescript directory contains .d.ts file for each web component and a smart.elements.d.ts typescript definitions file for all web components. Copy the typescript definitions file to your project and in your TypeScript file add a reference to smart.elements.d.ts

Getting Started with Angular Accordion Component

Setup Angular Environment

Angular provides the easiest way to set angular CLI projects using Angular CLI tool.

Install the CLI application globally to your machine.

npm install -g @angular/cli

Create a new Application

ng new smart-angular-accordion

Navigate to the created project folder

cd smart-angular-accordion

Setup the Accordion

Smart UI for Angular is distributed as smart-webcomponents-angular NPM package

Download and install the package.
```
npm install smart-webcomponents-angular
```

Once installed, import the AccordionModule in your application root or feature module.

app.module.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';

import { AccordionModule } from 'smart-webcomponents-angular/accordion';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

@NgModule({
    declarations: [ AppComponent ],
    imports: [ BrowserModule, AccordionModule ],
    bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})

export class AppModule { }

Adding CSS reference

The following CSS file is available in ../node_modules/smart-webcomponents-angular/ package folder. This can be referenced in [src/styles.css] using following code.
```
	@import 'smart-webcomponents-angular/source/styles/smart.default.css';
```
Another way to achieve the same is to edit the angular.json file and in the styles add the style.
```
	"styles": [
		"node_modules/smart-webcomponents-angular/source/styles/smart.default.css"
	]
	
```

Example

app.component.html

 
<smart-accordion>
    <smart-accordion-item label="First Item">First Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
    <smart-accordion-item label="Second Item">Second Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
    <smart-accordion-item label="Third Item">Third Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
    <smart-accordion-item label="Fourth Item">Fourth Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
</smart-accordion>

app.component.ts

 
import { Component, ViewChild, OnInit, AfterViewInit } from '@angular/core';


@Component({
    selector: 'app-root',
    templateUrl: './app.component.html',
	styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})

export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit, OnInit {	
	
 
	ngAfterViewInit(): void {
		// afterViewInit code.
    }
	
	ngOnInit(): void {
		// onInit code.
		this.init();
	}
	
	init(): void {
		// init code.
	    

	}	
}

app.module.ts

 
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';

import { AccordionModule } from 'smart-webcomponents-angular/accordion';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

@NgModule({
    declarations: [ AppComponent ],
    imports: [ BrowserModule, AccordionModule ],
    bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})

export class AppModule { }

Running the Angular application

After completing the steps required to render a Accordion, run the following command to display the output in your web browser

ng serve

and open localhost:4200 in your favorite web browser.

Getting Started with React Accordion Component

Setup React Environment

The easiest way to start with React is to use create-react-app. To scaffold your project structure, follow the installation instructions.

	npm install -g create-react-app
	create-react-app my-app
	cd my-app
	npm start

Preparation

Open src/App.js andsrc/App.css

Remove everything inside the App div tag in src/App.js:
```
<div className="App"> </div>
```
Remove the logo.svg import
Remove the contents of src/App.css
Remove src/logo.svg

Setup the Accordion

Smart UI for React is distributed as smart-webcomponents-react NPM package

Download and install the package.
```
npm install smart-webcomponents-react
```

Once installed, import the React Accordion Component and CSS files in your application and render it

app.js

import 'smart-webcomponents-react/source/styles/smart.default.css';
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { Accordion, AccordionItem } from 'smart-webcomponents-react/accordion';

class App extends React.Component {

	componentDidMount() {

	}

	render() {
		return (
			<div>
			    <Accordion>
			        <AccordionItem label="First Item">First Item Content.</AccordionItem>
			        <AccordionItem label="Second Item">Second Item Content.</AccordionItem>
			        <AccordionItem label="Third Item">Third Item Content.</AccordionItem>
			        <AccordionItem label="Fourth Item">Fourth Item Content.</AccordionItem>
			    </Accordion>
			</div>
		);
	}
}

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.querySelector("#root"));

export default App;

Running the React application

Start the app with

npm start

and open localhost:3000 in your favorite web browser to see the output below:

Getting Started with Vue Accordion Component

Setup Vue Environment

We will use vue-cli to get started. Let's install vue-cli

npm install -g @vue/cli

Then we can start creating our Vue.js projects with:

vue create my-project

Setup the Accordion

Open the "my-project" folder and run:

npm install smart-webcomponents

Setup with Vue 3.x

Make Vue ignore custom elements defined outside of Vue (e.g., using the Web Components APIs). Otherwise, it will throw a warning about an Unknown custom element, assuming that you forgot to register a global component or misspelled a component name.
Open src/main.js in your favorite text editor and change its contents to the following:

main.js
```
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'

const app = createApp(App)

app.config.isCustomElement = tag => tag.startsWith('smart-');
app.mount('#app')
		
```

Open src/App.vue in your favorite text editor and change its contents to the following:

App.vue

<template>
  <div class="vue-root">
    <smart-accordion id="accordion">
      <smart-accordion-item label="First Item">First Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
      <smart-accordion-item label="Second Item">Second Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
      <smart-accordion-item label="Third Item">Third Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
      <smart-accordion-item label="Fourth Item">Fourth Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
    </smart-accordion>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import { onMounted } from "vue";
import "smart-webcomponents/source/styles/smart.default.css";
import "smart-webcomponents/source/modules/smart.accordion.js";

export default {
  name: "app",
  setup() {
    onMounted(() => {});
  }
};
</script>

<style>
smart-accordion {
  width: 300px;
  height: 500px;
}
</style>

We can now use the smart-accordion with Vue 3. Data binding and event handlers will just work right out of the box.

Setup with Vue 2.x

Make Vue ignore custom elements defined outside of Vue (e.g., using the Web Components APIs). Otherwise, it will throw a warning about an Unknown custom element, assuming that you forgot to register a global component or misspelled a component name.
Open src/main.js in your favorite text editor and change its contents to the following:

main.js
```
import Vue from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'

Vue.config.productionTip = false
Vue.config.ignoredElements = [
'smart-accordion', 
'smart-accordion-item'
]

new Vue({
  render: h => h(App),
}).$mount('#app')
```

Open src/App.vue in your favorite text editor and change its contents to the following:

App.vue

<template>
   <smart-accordion>
        <smart-accordion-item label="First Item">First Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
        <smart-accordion-item label="Second Item">Second Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
        <smart-accordion-item label="Third Item">Third Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
        <smart-accordion-item label="Fourth Item">Fourth Item Content.</smart-accordion-item>
    </smart-accordion>
</template> 

<script>
import 'smart-webcomponents/source/modules/smart.accordion.js';
import "smart-webcomponents/source/styles/smart.default.css";

export default {
  name: "app"
};
</script>

<style>
  smart-accordion {
    width: 300px;
    height: 350px;
  }
</style>

We can now use the smart-accordion with Vue. Data binding and event handlers will just work right out of the box.
We have bound the properties of the smart-accordion to values in our Vue component.

Running the Vue application

Start the app with

npm run serve

and open localhost:8080 in your favorite web browser to see the output below:
