This code was from Spree. Unless you have good focus/active styles for all links, the outline is very helpful for accessibility.
Most websites these days add nice thick outlines, which might be worth considering in the future.
This naming scheme removes some duplication which is nice, but it's a little strange and results in a longer name overall. I don't like it very much because:
- filenames don't include the component's actual name. This makes it slightly harder to find them in my text editor (but I'd probably get used to that)
- the namespace and class naming isn't exactly right. This is _the_ vertical_ellipsis_menu, not a subcomponent.
- the stimulus controller name is now longer, adding more cruft to the HTML.
Lots of discussion here: https://github.com/ViewComponent/view_component/discussions/67
People tried to come up with a better way (and I was tempted to try myself). It seems this approach won. I guess it's not so bad if your component names are shorter.
This introduces a new 'toggle' controller, and we already had three\! So I created a generic interface that could be extended to potentially support all of them. I propose we try to reduce them all into the one controller, but won't go down the rabbit-hole just yet..
I have an idea on how to re-arrange and make it more contained, by assigning the controller only to the checkbox, and defining targets with aria-controls="", but chose to stick with Stimulus conventions for now.
I couldn't think of a simpler way to hardcode it, so now we have a clever generic method :)
We can assume that hidden elements will stay hidden, but we need to check each time if an element is disabled or not.
I'm starting to think that these stimulus tests are worthless. The environment is not the same as a browser, which creates extra work to deal with the inconsistencies. And it means we're not testing real world behaviour.
So these are just unit tests, but they take extra effort to put together due to the inter-relatedness with the DOM. Hmm.
Had to update the form controller a little bit to handle buttons.
But arrow not showwing on focus.
Getting some weird SCSS behaviour here.. maybe I'm trying to be too clever.
