Expansion panel

Expansion panels organize content into collapsible panels and reveal them to users in a progressive, step-by-step way.

Examples

Base

Group expansion panels using the attribute data-chi-epanel-group="name-of-the-group". This will enable panels to work together as a sequential form. When a panel is activated, the previous expanding panels will get the done state and the next will get the pending state.

States

Expansion panels have four states: active, pending, done and disabled. When pending (default state), only the title is shown. When active, panels expand to show content or forms. When done, content or form data is presented in a read only state. When disabled, a muted title is shown in a non-clickable state.

The four examples below differ only by state. Thanks to the state support and two internal hiding utility classes we can represent the different states of the same content changing only the property.

1.
Done state
Use this area to present
a read-only summary of what the user
entered or selected in step 1.
(e.g.) a package selection
Optional subtitle

2.
Active state
Use this area to present
a read-only summary of what the user
entered or selected in step 2.
(e.g.) shipping address
Optional subtitle

Content in expansion panel (e.g. a form to enter shipping address)

3.
Pending state
Use this area to present

Accordion mode

The expansion panel component can be configured to work as an accordion in a way that when an element is activated, any other panel in the same group will be deactivated by putting it in the pending state. To activate this mode, add the mode: "accordion" configuration parameter at the moment of creation. Done states should not be used in this mode. In this example, titles have been configured to trigger the action toggle, and panel #3 includes next and previous buttons that fulfill the accordion behavior.

Free mode

In this mode there is no automated action triggered when an element activates so you will need to manage all custom behavior.

Custom mode

Write your own custom mode by adding a handler for state changes of the expansion panels in the configuration, and writing your own functions for the active, done, pending, disabled, toggle, next and previous actions. In the example, the component behaves similar to the accordion but alternates between done and pending states instead of active and pending states. The overridden action functions are for documentation purposes only because they clone the functionality of the default ones.

Actions

You can bind actions to activators inside the expansion panel with the data-chi-epanel-action attribute.

ActionDescription
pendingSets the panel to the pending state. All the contents under the -active--only and the -done--only will not be visible.
activeSets the panel to the active state. All the contents under the -active--only will be visible.
toggleIn the case the panel is previously set to active, this action sets it to pending. It sets to active state otherwise.
doneSets the panel to the done state. All the contents under the -done--only will be visible.
disabledSets the panel to the disabled state. All the contents under the -active--only and the -done--only will not be visible, and the title will render in a soft grey color.
inactiveIs a synonym for pending.
nextSets the next panel in active status.
previousSets the previous panel in active status.

You can freely add, remove or change the data-chi-epanel-action attribute on the fly, as is the main element with the chi-epanel class, the one which listens for the events.

Preventing memory leaks

Expansion panel components have a dispose function to free all resources attached to the element, such as event listeners and object data. You should call this method when you want to remove the component.

var elemArray = document.querySelectorAll('[data-chi-epanel-group="groupName"]');
var expansionPanelsArray = chi.expansionPanel(elemArray);
// do stuff
expansionPanelsArray.forEach(function (expansionPanel) {
  expansionPanel.dispose();
});

It is safe to call the expansionPanel method more than once, as it will return any previously created expansion panel component associated to the element.

var elem = document.getElementById('expansion-panel-1');
var expansionPanelComponent = chi.expansionPanel(elem);
var elem2 = document.getElementById('expansion-panel-1');
var expansionPanelComponent2 = chi.expansionPanel(elem2);
expansionPanelComponent === expansionPanelComponent2; // returns true

expansionPanelComponent.dispose(); // Only have to do it once.
