Special uses

Security level UI

We can use some extra Javascript and CSS to achieve a more visual validation interface for our password inputs. In this case we bind the input model and we use the help-text slot to present a discretized progress made with <div> tags that are activated with a data-active attributed that is set depending of the model length. We make the input invalid if the model length is 0.

So with some extra JavaScript added to this HTML:

And some SCSS styling, we achieve the functionality:

#security-example {
  &:has(div[data-active] + div[data-active])::part(input) {
    border-color: var(--zc-lemon-aa);
  }

  &:has(div[data-active] + div[data-active] + div[data-active])::part(input) {
    border-color: var(--zc-moss-100);
  }

  output[slot="help-text"] {
    display: grid;
    gap: var(--zs-25);
    grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);
    padding-top: var(--zs-25);
    width: 100%;

    > div {
      background-color: var(--zg-8);
      height: var(--zs-50);
    }
    > div[data-active] {
      background-color: var(--zc-peach-aa);

      &:has(+ div[data-active]),
      &:first-child + div[data-active] {
        background-color: var(--zc-lemon-aa);
      }
      &:has(+ div[data-active] + div[data-active]),
      & + div[data-active]:has(+ div[data-active]),
      &:last-child {
        background-color: var(--zc-moss-100);
      }
    }
  }
}

Methods

reset()

We can all the reset() method of the WebComponent in order to reset the value. This will clean the internal states and emit the nullable value with the change event, plus a restarted event:

In this example, the button triggers the method:

Value:  undefined
