Description
focus-svelte works a bit differently than other focus locks I've encounted.
Rather than using an event listener to track user activity and overriding the
default behavior of the browser, the DOM is manipulated instead. All elements
outside of an active focus lock's descendants or ancestory have their
tabindex
set to -1
if it was 0
or greater previously.
To keep track of changes after the lock is enabled, a MutationObserver
monitors
the DOM for updates. Once all focus locks are disabled or removed, the observer
is stopped and the elements' properties are reset. If a focus lock later becomes active,
the observer is restarted and nodes are decorated accordingly.
When a lock becomes active for the first time, the HTMLElement
that is assigned focus is
dependent upon the options passed to the action / component.
If element
is assigned and is tabbable, it will be focused upon. If element
is undefined
or not tabbable and focusable
is true
, the HTMLElement
with use:focus
is granted focus.
Finally, if neither of those conditions are met, focus will be set on the first tabbable element.
Usage
There is both an action and a component that can be utilized.
Options
| option | description | type | default |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| element
| If element
is assigned and is tabbable, it will be focused upon when the trap is enabled. string
values will be considered a query selector. | Element \| string
| undefined
|
| focusable
| The HTMLElement
the action is assigned to gets a tabindex
of 0
when the trap becomes active | boolean
| false
|
| focusDelay
| can either be a number of ms to wait or an async function that resolves (void
) when the focus of an element should be set. | number \| () => Promise<void>
| tick
|
| delay
| Determines how long to wait before batching updates to tabIndex
and ariaHidden
. | number \| () => Promise<void>
| tick
|
| assignAriaHidden
| When a focus trap becomes enabled and is true
, all elements outside of an active trap or their ancestory have their aria-hidden attribute set to "true"
. | boolean
| false
|
| preventScroll
| sets preventScroll
when focusing. | boolean
| false
|
| enabled
| If true
, the focus trap becomes active. | boolean
| false
|
action
<script>
import { focus } from "focus-svelte";
let enabled = true;
function toggleFocus() {
enabled = !enabled;
}
</script>
<button on:click="{toggleFocus}">{enabled ? "disable" : "enable"} focus</button>
<div use:focus="{enabled}">
<input value={enabled ? "focus is traped here" : "regular tabbable input"} />
</div>
<input value={enabled ? "can't tab here" : "can be tabbed into!"} />
With assignAriaHidden
<script>
import { focus } from "focus-svelte";
let enabled = true;
function toggleFocus() {
enabled = !enabled;
}
</script>
<button on:click="{toggleFocus}">{enabled ? "disable" : "enable"} focus</button>
<div use:focus="{{enabled, assignAriaHidden: true}}">
<input value={enabled ? "focus is traped here" : "regular tabbable input"} />
</div>
<input value={enabled ? "can't tab here" : "can be tabbed into!"} />
component
<script>
import { Focus } from "focus-svelte";
let enabled = true;
function toggleFocus() {
enabled = !enabled;
}
</script>
<button on:click="{toggleFocus}">{enabled ? "disable" : "enable"} focus</button>
<Focus {enabled} assignAriaHidden="{true}">
<input value={enabled ? "focus is traped here" : "regular tabbable input"} />
</Focus>
<input value={enabled ? "can't tab here" : "can be tabbed into!"} />
Note: As the action needs an HTMLElement
, the component version wraps your content with a div
.
override
If you wish to override the behavior of an element, you can set data-focus-override="true"
and it will retain its original tabindex.
