Properties

PropertyTypeDescription
itemsarray of item
elementsarray of element
dataobject
  • aggregate: object — summarise in the database: one record per group with its measures; sort by a group or measure name
  • as: string — identifiers use letters, digits and '_' and do not start with a digit
  • cache: duration (500ms, 6s…) — durations look like 500ms, 30s, 5m, 1h or 7d
  • columns: array of string
  • filter: object {name: string | number | boolean | null | object}
  • include: object {name: object} — related records loaded with each record, one query per include: {"category": {}} or {"reviews": {"source": "DATABASE.reviews", "on": "product"}}
  • items: array of any — inline records for STATIC sources
  • limit: integer (1–500)
  • live: boolean — re-render when the underlying records change (server push)
  • mode: "list" | "single"
  • paginate: object
  • query: object {name: string | number | boolean | null | object} — API sources: query values passed to the api (literals or {param|query|props} references)
  • refresh: duration (500ms, 6s…) — durations look like 500ms, 30s, 5m, 1h or 7d
  • required: boolean — page data: when nothing matches, the page answers 404
  • search: object
  • sort: object
  • source: string — sources are DATABASE.<schema>, API.<name>, STATIC, USER, STATE.<store>.<list> or an expression giving a list ("=product.images")

Example

list example
{
  "type": "list",
  "items": [
    { "label": "Shipping", "target": "/help/shipping" },
    { "label": "Returns", "target": "/help/returns" },
    { "label": "Plain text item" }
  ]
}

Expected output

The HTML IWC rendered for the example above (inside the page's content wrapper). Class names such as i807b63fc are generated per element for its scoped CSS.

Rendered HTML
<div class="iwc-page ipage" id="iwc-content">
  <ul class="iwc-list i99ca5022">
    <li>
      <a href="/help/shipping">Shipping</a>
    </li>
    <li>
      <a href="/help/returns">Returns</a>
    </li>
    <li>
      Plain text item
    </li>
  </ul>
</div>

Data, conditions & styling

  • Conditional rendering: "visible": {"auth": "signed-in"}, {"roles": ["admin"]} or an expression such as "=product.stock > 0". Decided on the server: hidden elements are never sent.
  • Data binding: bind takes text from data (name, user.name, props.title, params.slug, state.cart.count); binds binds attributes. Containers become data-driven with data + item. See data binding.
  • Styling: className for your stylesheets, style for CSS in JSON, states for hover/focus/active, animation for entrance motion. See the style property reference.
  • Responsive behaviour: responsive applies CSS at or below a breakpoint ({"mobile": {"padding": "12px"}}); grids also take responsiveColumns.
