Toolbar Elements

If you have created an element using the ARCLI you will notice that the generated component uses the Element wrapper component:

/Reactium Project/src/app/component/Toolkit/Test/index.js

import React from 'react';
import { useHookComponent } from 'reactium-core/sdk';

export default () => {
    const { Element } = useHookComponent('RTK');

    return <Element title='Test'>Test Element</Element>;
};

The Element wrapper component adds the Toolbar component which has a zone included that allows you to add elements to the Toolbar.

Adding Toolbar Elements

You can add Toolbar elements by registering a component with the Toolkit SDK.

/MyPlugin/reactium-hooks.js

import Reactium from 'reactium-core/sdk'; 

Reactium.Plugin.register('MyPlugin').then(() => {

    // Ensure the toolkit plugin is available
    if (!Reactium.Toolkit) return;
    
    Reactium.Toolkit.Toolbar.register('CustomButton', {
        align: Reactium.Toolkit.Toolbar.align.left,
        component: <button>CustomButton</button>,
        order: Reactium.Enums.priority.neutral,
    });
});

When using the Toolkit SDK to add a Toolbar component, the component you register will persist across all Toolbars. You can control it's persistence by rendering null on urls you don't want it to appear on.

You can temporarily register Toolbar elements within a useEffect:

/Reactium Project/src/app/component/Toolkit/Test/index.js

import React, { useEffect } from 'react';
import Reactium, { useHookComponent } from 'reactium-core/sdk';


const TestToolbarButton = () => <button>Test</button>;


export default () => {
    useEffect(() => {
    
        // Ensure the Toolbar is visible
        Reactium.Toolkit.setFullscreen(false);

        // Register the TestToolbarButton
        Reactium.Toolkit.Toolbar.register('TestToolbarButton', {
            align: Reactium.Toolkit.Toolbar.align.right,
            component: TestToolbarButton,
        });

        // Unregister TestToolbarButton on unmount
        return () => {
            Reactium.Toolkit.Toolbar.unregister('TestToolbarButton');
        };
    }, []);

    return <div>Test Element</div>;
};

Using the Element wrapper component, you can add temporary Toolbar elements by specifying the toolbar property:

/Reactium Project/src/app/component/Toolkit/Test/index.js

import React from 'react';
import { useHookComponent } from 'reactium-core/sdk';


const TestToolbarButton = () => <button>Test</button>;


export default () => {
    const { Element } = useHookComponent('RTK');

    return (
        <Element 
            title='Test'
            toolbar={TestToolbarButton}>
            Test Element
        </Element>
    );
};
