The KeyValueChip, ChipSearch, and EditableText components are not present in the accessible codebase or documentation. The following guidance outlines typical design patterns, usage, and extension strategies for these types of UI components, based on standard practices.
KeyValueChip#
Design and Usage#
A KeyValueChip component visually represents a key-value pair as a discrete, interactive UI element (chip). It is commonly used in filter bars, tag editors, or search interfaces to display structured input.
Example usage:
<KeyValueChip keyName="Status" value="Active" onEdit={handleEdit} onDelete={handleDelete} />
Input Validation#
Input validation typically occurs when the chip is created or edited. The component should accept validation functions as props, allowing the parent to enforce rules (e.g., allowed keys, value formats).
Example:
<KeyValueChip
keyName="Email"
value="user@example.com"
validateValue={isValidEmail}
/>
Editing#
Editing is usually enabled via an inline form or dialog when the chip is clicked or an edit icon is pressed. The component should expose callbacks for edit events and allow the parent to control the editing state.
Chip Parsing Logic#
When users input text (e.g., "Status"), parsing logic splits the input into key and value, handling delimiters and whitespace. This logic can be encapsulated in a utility function or provided as a prop for customization.
Customization and Extension#
Allow customization of rendering (e.g., custom chip appearance), validation, and parsing logic via props or render props. Expose events for edit, delete, and selection to enable integration with parent components.
ChipSearch#
Design and Usage#
ChipSearch combines a text input with chip creation, allowing users to enter multiple values or key-value pairs, each represented as a chip. It is useful for advanced search bars or multi-select fields.
Example usage:
<ChipSearch
chips={chips}
onChipsChange={setChips}
suggestions={suggestions}
parseChip={customParseChip}
/>
Input Validation#
Validate input as the user types or when they attempt to create a chip. Reject invalid entries with visual feedback (e.g., error highlighting).
Autocomplete Suggestions#
Provide autocomplete by displaying a dropdown of suggestions as the user types. Suggestions can be static or fetched asynchronously. The component should accept a suggestions prop and handle keyboard navigation and selection.
Chip Parsing Logic#
Parse user input into chips using delimiters (e.g., comma, enter key). Support custom parsing logic via a prop to handle different formats (e.g., key).
Customization and Extension#
Allow customization of chip rendering, suggestion filtering, and parsing logic. Expose events for chip addition, removal, and input changes. Support controlled and uncontrolled usage patterns.
EditableText#
Design and Usage#
EditableText displays text that can be switched into an editable state (e.g., on click or via an edit button). It is used for inline editing of labels, descriptions, or other text fields.
Example usage:
<EditableText value={text} onChange={setText} validate={validateText} />
Input Validation#
Validate input on blur or submit. The component should accept a validate function and display errors inline.
Editing#
Toggle between display and edit modes. Support keyboard accessibility (e.g., Enter to save, Escape to cancel). Expose events for edit start, commit, and cancel.
Customization and Extension#
Allow customization of the input field (e.g., textarea vs. input), validation logic, and display formatting. Expose render props or slots for advanced customization.
Integration in the UI Library#
These components are typically integrated as part of a reusable UI library. They should follow the library’s conventions for theming, accessibility, and event handling. Expose clear APIs for customization and extension, and provide documentation and examples for common use cases.
Extending and Reusing Components#
To extend or reuse these components:
- Use composition: Wrap the base component to add new behavior or styling.
- Leverage props: Pass custom validation, parsing, or rendering logic.
- Use render props or slots for advanced customization.
- Export utility functions (e.g., for chip parsing) for reuse in other components.
If you require concrete implementation details or API references, please provide the relevant source code or clarify the repository where these components are defined.
