@isa/ui/toolbar

A flexible toolbar container component for Angular applications with configurable sizing and content projection.

Overview

The Toolbar library provides a single component (ui-toolbar) that serves as a styled container for toolbar content. It supports two size variants (small and medium) and uses content projection to allow flexible composition of toolbar items such as buttons, inputs, and action controls.

  template: `
    <ui-toolbar [size]="toolbarSize()">
      @if (isDesktop()) {
        <h1>Full Desktop Title</h1>
        <div class="actions">
          <button>Action 1</button>
          <button>Action 2</button>
          <button>Action 3</button>
        </div>
      } @else {
        <h1>Mobile</h1>
        <button>Menu</button>
      }
    </ui-toolbar>
  `
})
export class ResponsiveToolbarComponent {
  isDesktop = breakpoint([Breakpoint.Desktop, Breakpoint.DekstopL, Breakpoint.DekstopXL]);

  toolbarSize = computed(() =>
    this.isDesktop() ? ToolbarSize.Medium : ToolbarSize.Small
  );
}

Styling and Customization

CSS Classes

The component exposes the following CSS classes for styling:

/* Base toolbar class */
.ui-toolbar {
  /* Base toolbar styles */
}

/* Medium toolbar (default) */
.ui-toolbar__medium {
  /* Medium size styles */
}

/* Small toolbar */
.ui-toolbar__small {
  /* Small size styles */
}

Example Styling

// Base toolbar styling
.ui-toolbar {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: space-between;
  padding: 0 1rem;
  background-color: var(--isa-surface-100);
  border-bottom: 1px solid var(--isa-border-200);

  // Medium toolbar (default height)
  &.ui-toolbar__medium {
    height: 4rem;
    padding: 0 1.5rem;
  }

  // Small toolbar (compact height)
  &.ui-toolbar__small {
    height: 3rem;
    padding: 0 1rem;
    font-size: 0.875rem;
  }
}

// Toolbar sections and layouts
.ui-toolbar {
  .toolbar-section {
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    gap: 0.5rem;
  }

  .toolbar-title {
    font-weight: 600;
    font-size: 1.125rem;
  }

  .toolbar-actions {
    display: flex;
    gap: 0.5rem;
    margin-left: auto;
  }
}

Dark Theme Example

// Dark mode toolbar
.dark-theme {
  .ui-toolbar {
    background-color: var(--isa-surface-900);
    border-bottom-color: var(--isa-border-700);
    color: var(--isa-text-inverse);
  }
}

Architecture Notes

Size Management

The component uses Angular signals for reactive size management:

size = input<ToolbarSize>('medium');

sizeClass = computed(() => `ui-toolbar__${this.size()}`);

Benefits:

• Automatic updates - Size changes trigger class recomputation
• Type safety - ToolbarSize type ensures valid values
• Performance - OnPush detection with signals

ViewEncapsulation.None

The component uses ViewEncapsulation.None to allow external styling:

@Component({
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})

This enables:

• Parent components can style toolbar content
• Global styles can target toolbar elements
• Flexible theme integration

Content Projection

The toolbar uses simple content projection for maximum flexibility:

<ng-content></ng-content>

This allows any content structure:

• Buttons, inputs, dropdowns
• Custom components
• Icons and text
• Complex layouts

Standalone Architecture

The component is fully standalone with no dependencies:

@Component({
  standalone: true,
  imports: []
})

Testing

The library uses Jest for testing.

Running Tests

# Run tests for this library
npx nx test ui-toolbar --skip-nx-cache

# Run tests with coverage
npx nx test ui-toolbar --code-coverage --skip-nx-cache

# Run tests in watch mode
npx nx test ui-toolbar --watch

Test Coverage

The library should include tests covering:

• Component rendering - Verifies toolbar renders correctly
• Size variants - Tests both small and medium sizes
• Content projection - Validates content appears correctly
• Class bindings - Tests dynamic class application
• Signal reactivity - Tests size changes update classes

Example Test

import { ComponentFixture, TestBed } from '@angular/core/testing';
import { ToolbarComponent, ToolbarSize } from './toolbar.component';

describe('ToolbarComponent', () => {
  let component: ToolbarComponent;
  let fixture: ComponentFixture<ToolbarComponent>;

  beforeEach(() => {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      imports: [ToolbarComponent]
    });
    fixture = TestBed.createComponent(ToolbarComponent);
    component = fixture.componentInstance;
  });

  it('should apply medium size by default', () => {
    fixture.detectChanges();
    expect(component.sizeClass()).toBe('ui-toolbar__medium');
  });

  it('should apply small size when specified', () => {
    component.size = ToolbarSize.Small;
    fixture.detectChanges();
    expect(component.sizeClass()).toBe('ui-toolbar__small');
  });

  it('should project content correctly', () => {
    const compiled = fixture.nativeElement;
    compiled.innerHTML = '<span>Test Content</span>';
    fixture.detectChanges();
    expect(compiled.textContent).toContain('Test Content');
  });
});

Dependencies

Required Libraries

• @angular/core - Angular framework (v20.1.2)

Path Alias

Import from: @isa/ui/toolbar

No External Dependencies

This component has no external dependencies beyond Angular core, making it lightweight and easy to integrate.

Best Practices

1. Consistent Sizing - Use the same toolbar size throughout similar contexts (e.g., all page headers use medium)
2. Flexbox Layouts - Structure toolbar content using flexbox for responsive behavior
3. Semantic HTML - Use appropriate HTML elements within the toolbar (headings, buttons, etc.)
4. Accessibility - Ensure toolbar controls are keyboard accessible and have proper ARIA labels
5. Content Organization - Group related toolbar items visually using spacing and dividers
6. Responsive Design - Consider using the breakpoint service to adapt toolbar content for different screen sizes

Common Patterns

Left-Right Layout

<ui-toolbar>
  <div class="toolbar-left">
    <h1>Title</h1>
    <span>Subtitle</span>
  </div>
  <div class="toolbar-right">
    <button>Action 1</button>
    <button>Action 2</button>
  </div>
</ui-toolbar>

<style>
  .ui-toolbar {
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-between;
  }
</style>

Three-Section Layout

<ui-toolbar>
  <div class="toolbar-left">Left content</div>
  <div class="toolbar-center">Center content</div>
  <div class="toolbar-right">Right content</div>
</ui-toolbar>

<style>
  .ui-toolbar {
    display: grid;
    grid-template-columns: 1fr auto 1fr;
    gap: 1rem;
  }
  .toolbar-center {
    justify-self: center;
  }
  .toolbar-right {
    justify-self: end;
  }
</style>
