Semantics
By default, components generated by the library (
Box, Composition, and area components) render a <div> element, which may not be a valid HTML element in some use cases.You can provide a custom HTML element or a React component to render instead of the default one by using polymorphic prop
styled-components feature.Using HTML element
To render a different HTML element provide its name as a value of the
as prop of any component exported or generated by the library:1
import React from 'react'
2
import { Box } from 'atomic-layout'
3
4
export const Header = (props) => (
5
<Box as="header" {...props} />
6
)

Using React component
To render a custom React component provide its reference as a value to the
as prop.You must spread the props in your custom component to propagate class names generated by
styled-components.1
import React from 'react'
2
import { Box } from 'atomic-layout'
3
import styled from 'styled-components'
4
5
const Header = (props) => (
6
// Spreading the props assigns "className" (SC)
7
// and the props from Atomic Layout.
8
<div {...props} />
9
)
10
11
export const MyComponent = () => (
12
<Box as={Header} height={50} padding={10} />
13
)

Custom areas components
Polymorphic prop can be used on the area components generated by
Composition.1
import React from 'react'
2
import { Composition } from 'atomic-layout'
3
import { Footer as CustomFooter } from '@components'
4
5
export const PageContent = () => (
6
<Composition as="main" areas="header footer">
7
{(Areas) => (
8
<>
9
<Areas.Header as="header">{...}</Areas.Header>
10
<Areas.Footer as={CustomFooter}>{...}</Areas.Footer>
11
</>
12
)}
13
</Composition>
14
)
