import { Story, Canvas, ArgsTable } from '@storybook/addon-docs'; import { Modal } from './modal'; # Modal The `Modal` focuses the user's attention exclusively on information via a window that is overlaid on primary content. It should be used with the `ModalOverlay`, `ModalContent` and `ModalHeader` components to create a complete modal. ## Props The `Modal` accepts all props below as well as all [Box](/docs/components-ui-box--default-story#props) component props ### Usage The `Modal` component is a very atomic level component that is meant to be used with `ModalOverlay`, `ModalContent` and `ModalHeader`. When the modal opens: - Focus is trapped within the modal and set to the first tabbable element. - Content behind a modal dialog is inert, meaning that users cannot interact with it. - Use the `isOpen` prop to control whether the modal is open or closed. - Use the `onClose` prop to fire a callback when the modal is closed. This is used for the `isClosedOnOutsideClick` prop and the `isClosedOnEscapeKey`. ```jsx import React, { useState, useRef } from 'react'; import { Modal, ModalOverlay, ModalContent, ModalHeader, Text, Button } from '../../component-library'; const [open, setOpen] = useState(false); const handleOnClick = () => { setOpen(true); }; const handleOnClose = () => { setOpen(false); }; Modal Header Children ``` ### Is Closed On Outside Click Use the `isClosedOnOutsideClick` prop to control whether the modal should close when the user clicks outside of the modal. Defaults to `true`. ```jsx import { Modal } from '../../component-library'; ; ``` ### Is Closed On Escape Key Use the `isClosedOnEscapeKey` prop to control whether the modal should close when the user presses the escape key. Defaults to `true`. ```jsx import { Modal } from '../../component-library'; ; ``` ### Initial Focus Ref Use the `initialFocusRef` to set the `ref` of the element to receive focus initially. This is useful for input elements that should receive focus when the modal opens. ```jsx import React, { useState, useRef } from 'react'; import { Modal, ModalOverlay, ModalContent, ModalHeader, TextFieldSearch, Button } from '../../component-library'; // Ref to set initial focus const inputRef = React.useRef(null); const [open, setOpen] = useState(false); const handleOnClick = () => { setOpen(true); }; const handleOnClose = () => { setOpen(false); }; Modal Header ``` ### Final Focus Ref Use the `finalFocusRef` to set the `ref` of the element to receive focus when the modal closes. ```jsx import React, { useState, useRef } from 'react'; import { Modal, ModalOverlay, ModalContent, ModalHeader, TextFieldSearch, Button } from '../../component-library'; // Ref to set focus after modal closes const buttonRef = React.useRef(null); const [open, setOpen] = useState(false); const handleOnClick = () => { setOpen(true); }; const handleOnClose = () => { setOpen(false); }; Modal Header {args.children} ``` ### Restore Focus Use the `restoreFocus` prop to restore focus to the element that triggered the `Modal` once it unmounts Defaults to `false` ```jsx import { Modal } from '../../component-library'; ; ``` ### Auto Focus If `true`, the first focusable element within the `children` will auto-focused once `Modal` mounts. Depending on the content of `Modal` this is usually the back or close button in the `ModalHeader`. Defaults to `true` ```jsx import { Modal } from '../../component-library'; ; ``` ## Accessibility ### Keyboard and Focus Management - When the modal opens, focus is trapped within it. - When the modal opens, focus is automatically set to the first enabled element, or the element from `initialFocusRef`. - When the modal closes, focus returns to the element that was focused before the modal activated, or the element from `finalFocusRef`. - Clicking on the overlay closes the Modal. - Pressing ESC closes the Modal. - Scrolling is blocked on the elements behind the modal. - The modal is rendered in a portal attached to the end of document.body to break it out of the source order and make it easy to add aria-hidden to its siblings. ### ARIA - The `ModalContent` has aria-modal="true" and role="dialog" - The `ModalOverlay` has aria-hidden="true"
