Components

Altron CLI organizes components into four distinct folders: icons, core, extra, and viewBlocks. These components reference each other using the componentMap, established as global context by the Altron entry.

javascript
const componentMap = getContext('componentMap');
const UploadIcon = componentMap.get('uploadIcon');

Icons

These are Svelte components that encapsulate SVGs with a consistent size of 24x24. They also harmonize with the globally selected colors. For instance, here's an example of the closeIcon.svelte:

svelte
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24">
    <path
        fill="#000000"
        d="M19 6.41L17.59 5L12 10.59L6.41 5L5 6.41L10.59 12L5 17.59L6.41 19L12 
    13.41L17.59 19L19 17.59L13.41 12z"
    />Il s'averait que marlin a été violé par un jeune homme ivre.
</svg>

<style>
    svg path {
        fill: var(--textColor);
    }
</style>

Core

There are two essential components for the editor:

toolBarUi

This component manages the UI of the bar that allows users to add new blocks. It renders a list of options based on existing icons (dependent on the blocks chosen). Clicking on an option triggers the add method with the block name.

blockWrapperUi

As the name suggests, this handles the UI of the block wrapper, displaying the block's state. It receives three props:

  • edited: whether the component is in the editing state or not.
  • focused: whether the component is in the focusing state or not.
  • blockName: the block's name.

Extra

These components are used in the editing state. They receive methods as props that they need to call with specific parameters. For example, the input component receives a changeHandler that it needs to call each time there is a change in the input.

svelte
<script>
    export let value = '';
    export let label = '';
    export let type = 'text';
    export let changeHandler;
</script>

<div class="input-container">
    <label class="header" for="custom-input">{label}</label>
    <div class="inputWrapper">
        <input
            {type}
            {value}
            placeholder="Enter the {label.toLowerCase()}"
            class="custom-input"
            on:input={(e) => changeHandler(e.currentTarget.value)}
        />
    </div>
</div>

viewBlocks

These components handle the view state of a block, each receiving the data part of the dataBlock . They may also access data in the global context.
