Typescript Web Components

Using with Typescript

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

Installation

npm install smart-webcomponents

The source code for all typescript definitions is available in the typescript folder.

Using the Smart's Redistributable Package

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 as demonstrated below:

Getting the instance of existing web component


/// <reference path="./typescript/smart.elements.d.ts" />  

import { Accordion, AccordionExpandMode } from "./typescript/smart.elements";

window.onload = function() {
	const accordion: Accordion = document.getElementById('smart-accordion');

	accordion.expandMode = AccordionExpandMode.Multiple;
}
