Toast

Transient message (a.k.a. Snackbar).

#Contract

Transient message (a.k.a. Snackbar). This is the archetype's identity: a component that keeps it is a Toast on every target, however differently each one draws it. Its content category is a region, which decides where it may sit and what it may contain.

#Anatomy

The published parts, with the role each one carries. The role is what a target derives the element from; the file never names an element.

text

icon: icon  (optional)
content: text
action: control  (optional)
close: control  (optional)

#Behaviours

Composed from the prelude's atoms. An optional one is marked.

#Realization

iOS: top banner; Android: snackbar bottom

What the React target does with it

The React generator realizes every archetype the prelude defines, and its output is typechecked against the real React types for each one on every change. Where a part or a constraint cannot be expressed, the generator reports it rather than approximating.

#Start from it

A component that starts from Toast, before the author touches it: the root and the published anatomy, each part with the kind its role gives it. Paste it into a file, or open it in the Playground, and add the contract, the tokens and the states.

component Toast {
  archetype Toast

  part Toast: container {
  }

  part icon: icon {
  }

  part content: text {
  }

  part action: control {
  }

  part close: control {
  }
}

Every statement a part can carry is in the reference; the tour shows the arc from archetype to generated code.
