Props

componentId String

unique identifier of the component, can be referenced in other components' react prop.
endpoint Object [optional]

endpoint prop provides the ability to query a user-defined backend service for this component, overriding the data endpoint configured in the ReactiveBase component. Works only when enableAppbase is true. Accepts the following properties:
- url String [Required] URL where the data cluster is hosted.
- headers Object [optional]
  set custom headers to be sent with each server request as key/value pairs.
- method String [optional]
  set method of the API request.
- body Object [optional]
  request body of the API request. When body isn't set and method is POST, the request body is set based on the component's configured props.
- Overrides the endpoint property defined in ReactiveBase.
- If required, use transformResponse prop to transform response in component-consumable format.
dataField String

data field to be connected to the component's UI view. The list items are filtered by a database query on this field. This field is used for doing an aggregation and returns the result. We're using a .raw multifield here. You can use a field of type keyword or not_analyzed depending on your Elasticsearch cluster.
nestedField String [optional]

use to set the nested mapping field that allows arrays of objects to be indexed in a way that they can be queried independently of each other. Applicable only when dataField is a part of nested type.
title String or JSX [optional]

title of the component to be shown in the UI.
loader String or JSX [optional]

to display an optional loader while fetching the options.
size Number [optional] number of list items to be displayed.
Note:
1. Appbase users should use the aggregationSize prop instead. The size prop would only set the size for hits not the aggregations.
2. We recommend Appbase users to not use the size prop unless they are using hits because it can impact the query performance.
aggregationSize To set the number of buckets to be returned by aggregations.

Note: This prop is only applicable when enableAppbase is set to true.
sortBy String [optional]

sort the list items by one of count, asc, desc. Defaults to count, which sorts the list by the frequency of count value, most first.
defaultValue string [optional]

selects an initial item from the list on mount.
value string [optional]

controls the current value of the component. It selects the item from the list (on mount and on update). Use this prop in conjunction with onChange function.
selectAllLabel String [optional]

add an extra Select all item to the list with the provided label string.
showRadio Boolean [optional]

show radio button icon for each list item. Defaults to true.
showCount Boolean [optional]

show count value of the number of occurences besides a list item. Defaults to true.
transformData Function [optional]

allows transforming the data to render inside the list. You can change the order, remove, or add items, transform their values with this method. It provides the data as param which is an array of objects of shape { key: <string>, doc_count: <number> } and expects you to return the array of objects of same shape. For example:

Copy

transformData={(list) => {
    // sort or update the list
    return list;
}}

showMissing Boolean [optional]

defaults to false. When set to true it also retrives the aggregations for missing fields under the label specified by missingLabel.
missingLabel String [optional]

defaults to N/A. Specify a custom label to show when showMissing is set to true.
showSearch Boolean [optional]

whether to show a searchbox to filter the list items locally. Defaults to true.
placeholder String [optional]

placeholder to be displayed in the searchbox, only applicable when the showSearch prop is set to true. When applicable, the default placeholder value is set to "Search".
showFilter Boolean [optional]

show as filter when a value is selected in a global selected filters view. Defaults to true.
filterLabel String [optional]

An optional label to display for the component in the global selected filters view. This is only applicable if showFilter is enabled. Default value used here is componentId.
URLParams Boolean [optional]

enable creating a URL query string parameter based on the selected value of the list. This is useful for sharing URLs with the component state. Defaults to false.
showLoadMore Boolean [optional]

defaults to false and works only with elasticsearch >= 6 since it uses composite aggregations. This adds a "Load More" button to load the aggs on demand combined with the size prop. Composite aggregations are in beta and this is an experimental API which might change in a future release.

Note:

Composite aggregations do not support sorting by count. Hence with showLoadMore, you can only sort by: asc or desc order. sortBy prop defaults to asc when showLoadMore prop is used.

renderItem Function [optional]

customize the rendered list via a function which receives the item label, count & isSelected and expects a JSX or String back. For example:

Copy

renderItem={(label, count, isSelected) => (
    <div>
        {label}
        <span style={{
            marginLeft: 5, color: isSelected ? 'red' : 'dodgerblue'
        }}>
            {count}
        </span>
    </div>
)}

render Function [optional]

an alternative callback function to renderItem, where user can define how to render the view based on all the data changes.
It accepts an object with these properties:
- loading: boolean indicates that the query is still in progress
- error: object An object containing the error info
- data: array An array of results obtained from the applied query.
- rawData object An object of raw response as-is from elasticsearch query.
- value: string current selected value.
- handleChange: function A callback function can be used to mark the list value as selected.

Copy

<SingleList
	render={({ loading, error, data, handleChange }) => {
		if (loading) {
			return <div>Fetching Results.</div>;
		}
		if (error) {
			return <div>Something went wrong! Error details {JSON.stringify(error)}</div>;
		}
		return (
			<ul>
				{data.map(item => (
					<li>
						<input type="radio" value={item.key} onChange={handleChange} />
						{item.key}-{item.count}
					</li>
				))}
			</ul>
		);
	}}
/>

Or you can also use render function as children

Copy

<SingleList>
        {
            ({
                loading,
                error,
                data,
                value,
                handleChange,
            }) => (
                // return UI to be rendered
            )
        }
</SingleList>

renderError String or JSX or Function [optional] can be used to render an error message in case of any error.

Copy

renderError={(error) => (
        <div>
            Something went wrong!<br/>Error details<br/>{error}
        </div>
    )
}

renderNoResults Function [optional] can be used to render a message in case of no list items.

Copy
```
renderNoResults={() => <p>No Results Found!</p>}
```
onChange function [optional] is a callback function which accepts component's current value as a parameter. It is called when you are using the value props and the component's value changes. This prop is used to implement the controlled component behavior.
onError Function [optional] gets triggered in case of an error and provides the error object, which can be used for debugging or giving feedback to the user if needed.
index String [optional] The index prop can be used to explicitly specify an index to query against for this component. It is suitable for use-cases where you want to fetch results from more than one index in a single ReactiveSearch API request. The default value for the index is set to the app prop defined in the ReactiveBase component.

Note: This only works when enableAppbase prop is set to true in ReactiveBase.
enableStrictSelection Boolean [optional] When set to true, a selected option can't be unselected. Although, it is possible to change the selected option. Defaults to false.

Demo

Styles

SingleList component supports innerClass prop with the following keys:

title
input
list
radio
label
count

Extending

SingleList component can be extended to

customize the look and feel with className, style,
update the underlying DB query with customQuery, defaultQuery,
connect with external interfaces using beforeValueChange, onValueChange and onQueryChange,
specify how options should be filtered or updated using react prop.

Copy

<SingleList
  ...
  className="custom-class"
  style={{"paddingBottom": "10px"}}
  customQuery={
    function(value, props) {
      return {
        query: {
            match: {
                data_field: "this is a test"
            }
        }
      }
    }
  }
   defaultQuery={
    function(value, props) {
      return {
          timeout: "1s"
      }
    }
  }
  beforeValueChange={
    function(value) {
      // called before the value is set
      // returns a promise
      return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        // update state or component props
        resolve()
        // or reject()
      })
    }
  }
  onValueChange={
    function(value) {
      console.log("current value: ", value)
      // set the state
      // use the value with other js code
    }
  }
  onQueryChange={
    function(prevQuery, nextQuery) {
      // use the query with other js code
      console.log('prevQuery', prevQuery);
      console.log('nextQuery', nextQuery);
    }
  }
  // specify how and which options are filtered using `react` prop.
  react={
    "and": ["pricingFilter", "dateFilter"],
    "or": ["searchFilter"]
  }
/>

className String CSS class to be injected on the component container.
style Object CSS styles to be applied to the SingleList component.
customQuery Function is a callback function which accepts component's current value as a parameter and returns the data query to be applied to the component, as defined in Elasticsearch Query DSL. Note: customQuery is called on value changes in the SingleList component as long as the component is a part of react dependency of at least one other component.
defaultQuery Function takes value and props as parameters and returns the data query to be applied to the source component, as defined in Elasticsearch Query DSL, which doesn't get leaked to other components. Read more about it here.
beforeValueChange Function is a callback function which accepts component's future value as a parameter and returns a promise. It is called everytime before a component's value changes. The promise, if and when resolved, triggers the execution of the component's query and if rejected, kills the query execution. This method can act as a gatekeeper for query execution, since it only executes the query after the provided promise has been resolved.

Note:

If you're using Reactivesearch version >= 3.3.7, beforeValueChange can also be defined as a synchronous function. value is updated by default, unless you throw an Error to reject the update. For example:

Copy
```
beforeValueChange = value => {
    // The update is accepted by default
	if (value === 'In Death') {
		// To reject the update, throw an error
		throw Error('Selected value should not be equal to In Death.');
	}
};
```
onValueChange Function is a callback function which accepts component's current value as a parameter. It is called everytime the component's value changes. This prop is handy in cases where you want to generate a side-effect on value selection. For example: You want to show a pop-up modal with the valid discount coupon code when a list item is selected in a "Discounted Price" SingleList.
onQueryChange Function is a callback function which accepts component's prevQuery and nextQuery as parameters. It is called everytime the component's query changes. This prop is handy in cases where you want to generate a side-effect whenever the component's query would change.
react Object specify dependent components to reactively update SingleList's options.
- key String one of and, or, not defines the combining clause.
  - and clause implies that the results will be filtered by matches from all of the associated component states.
  - or clause implies that the results will be filtered by matches from at least one of the associated component states.
  - not clause implies that the results will be filtered by an inverse match of the associated component states.
- value String or Array or Object
  - String is used for specifying a single component by its componentId.
  - Array is used for specifying multiple components by their componentId.
  - Object is used for nesting other key clauses.
