Description

The <sp-alert-banner> shows pressing and high-signal messages, such as system alerts. It is meant to be noticed and prompt users to take action.

Usage

yarn add @spectrum-web-components/alert-banner

Import the side effectful registration of <sp-alert-banner> via:

import '@spectrum-web-components/alert-banner/sp-alert-banner.js';

When looking to leverage the AlertBanner base class as a type and/or for extension purposes, do so via:

import { AlertBanner } from '@spectrum-web-components/alert-banner';

Examples

The alert banner accepts text context in the default slot provided:

<sp-alert-banner open>
    All documents in this folder have been archived
</sp-alert-banner>

Dismissible

Use the dismissible attribute to include an icon-only close button used to dismiss the alert banner:

<sp-alert-banner open dismissible>
    All documents in this folder have been archived
</sp-alert-banner>

Actionable

Use the action slot for the contextual action that a user can take in response to the issue described:

<sp-alert-banner open dismissible>
    Your trial has expired
    <sp-button treatment="outline" static-color="white" slot="action">
        Buy now
    </sp-button>
</sp-alert-banner>

Closing the alert banner

Alert banners should be used for system-level messages and they should be dismissed only as a result of a user action or if the internal state that triggered the alert has been resolved.

The alert can be dismissed by triggering the close button in case of a dismissible alert. It also exposes a public close method to allow consumers to close the alert programmatically.

The component dispatches a close event to announce that the alert banner has been closed. This can be prevented by using the event.preventDefault() API.

Accessibility

The sp-alert-banner element is rendered with a role of alert, to inform screen readers and notify users accordingly. When rendering an alert that is dismissable or has actions on a page, it should be placed in a container with a role of region and that region should be labelled for screen readers users to quickly navigate.

The alert banner supports keyboard interaction as follows:

Tab should place focus on the next interactive element, which can be either the actionable button or the close button.
Tab + Shift should place focus on the previous interactive element.
Space or Enter should trigger the interaction if one of the buttons is focused, thus dismissing the alert in case of the close button or triggering the corresponding contextual action.
Esc will dismiss an alert banner if it’s a dismissible alert.

Once focus is on the alert banner, arrow keys can be used to navigate between the close button and the slotted action buttons.
