# Widget

## Gtk3

### Additional widget properties

These are properties that Astal additionally adds to Gtk.Widgets

- `className`: `string` - List of class CSS selectors separated by white space.
- `css`: `string` - Inline CSS. e.g `label { color: white; }`. If no selector is specified `*` will be assumed. e.g `color: white;` will be inferred as `* { color: white; }`.
- `cursor`: `string` - Cursor style when hovering over widgets that have hover states, e.g it won't work on labels. [list of valid values](https://docs.gtk.org/gdk3/ctor.Cursor.new_from_name.html).
- `clickThrough`: `boolean` - Lets click events through.

To have a full list of available properties, reference the documentation of the widget.

- [Astal3 widgets](https://aylur.github.io/libastal/astal3/index.html#classes)
- [Gtk3 widgets](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/#classes)

Most common ones you will use frequently are
  - [halign](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/property.Widget.halign.html)
  - [valign](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/property.Widget.valign.html)
  - [hexpand](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/property.Widget.hexpand.html)
  - [vexpand](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/property.Widget.vexpand.html)

### Additional widget methods

#### setup

`setup` is a convenience prop to remove the need to predefine widgets
before returning them in cases where a reference is needed.

without `setup`

```tsx
function MyWidget() {
    const button = new Widget.Button()
    // setup button
    return button
}
```

using `setup`

```tsx
function MyWidget() {
    function setup(button: Widget.Button) {
        // setup button
    }

    return <buttons setup={setup} />
}
```

#### hook

Shorthand for connection and disconnecting to [Subscribable and Connectable](./binding#subscribable-and-connectable-interface) objects.

without `hook`

```tsx
function MyWidget() {
    const id = gobject.connect("signal", callback)
    const unsub = variable.subscribe(callback)

    return <box
        onDestroy={() => {
            gobject.disconnect(id)
            unsub()
        }}
    />
}
```

with `hook`

```tsx
function MyWidget() {
    return <box
        setup={(self) => {
            self.hook(gobject, "signal", callback)
            self.hook(variable, callback)
        }}
    />
}
```

#### toggleClassName

Toggle classNames based on a condition

```tsx
function MyWidget() {
    return <box
        setup={(self) => {
            self.toggleClassName("classname", someCondition)
        }}
    />
}
```

### How to use non builtin Gtk widgets

Using the `astalify` mixin you can subclass widgets
to behave like builtin widgets.
The `astalify` mixin will apply the following:

- set `visible` to true by default (Gtk3 widgets are invisible by default)
- make gobject properties accept and consume `Binding` objects
- add properties and methods listed above
- set up signal handlers that are passed as props prefixed with `on`

```tsx
import GObject from "gi://GObject"
import { Gtk, Gdk, Widget, astalify, type ConstructProps } from "astal/gtk3"

// subclass, register, define constructor props
class ColorButton extends astalify(Gtk.ColorButton) {
    static { GObject.registerClass(this) }

    constructor(props: ConstructProps<
        ColorButton,
        Gtk.ColorButton.ConstructorProps,
        { onColorSet: [] } // signals of Gtk.ColorButton have to be manually typed
    >) {
        super(props as any)
    }
}

function MyWidget() {
    function setup(button: ColorButton) {

    }

    return <ColorButton
        setup={setup}
        useAlpha
        rgba={new Gdk.RGBA({
            red: 1,
            green: 0,
            blue: 0,
            alpha: 0.5,
        })}
        onColorSet={(self) => {
            print(self.rgba)
        }}
    />
}
```

:::info
Signal properties have to be annotated manually for TypeScript.
You can reference [Gtk3](https://gjs-docs.gnome.org/gtk30~3.0/)
and [Astal3](https://aylur.github.io/libastal/astal3/#classes) for available signals.

### TypeScript

Type of widgets are available through `Widget`.
Here is an example Widget that takes in and handles a possibly `Binding` prop.

```tsx
import { Binding, Variable } from "astal"
import { Widget } from "astal/gtk3"

export interface ToggleButtonProps extends Widget.ButtonProps {
    onToggled?: (self: Widget.Button, on: boolean) => void
    state?: Binding<boolean> | boolean
    child?: JSX.Element
}

export default function ToggleButton(btnprops: ToggleButtonProps) {
    const { state = false, onToggled, setup, child, ...props } = btnprops
    const innerState = Variable(state instanceof Binding ? state.get() : state)

    return <button
        {...props}
        setup={self => {
            setup?.(self)

            self.toggleClassName("active", innerState.get())
            self.hook(innerState, () => self.toggleClassName("active", innerState.get()))

            if (state instanceof Binding) {
                self.hook(state, () => innerState.set(state.get()))
            }
        }}
        onClicked={self => {
            onToggled?.(self, !innerState.get())
        }}
    >
        {child}
    </button>
}
```

      keymode={Astal.Keymode.ON_DEMAND}
  >
      <centerbox />
  </window>
  ```

## Gtk4

The Gtk4 js library does not add any additional properties to the widgets,
but it still has some additional properties that the constructors handle.

- `type`: `string` an arbitrary string that the [Buildable](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/iface.Buildable.html) interface uses.
- event handlers for [EventControllers](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/class.EventController.html)
  ```ts
  type EventController<Self extends Gtk.Widget> = {
      onFocusEnter?: (self: Self) => void
      onFocusLeave?: (self: Self) => void

      onKeyPressed?: (self: Self, keyval: number, keycode: number, state: Gdk.ModifierType) => void
      onKeyReleased?: (self: Self, keyval: number, keycode: number, state: Gdk.ModifierType) => void
      onKeyModifier?: (self: Self, state: Gdk.ModifierType) => void

      onLegacy?: (self: Self, event: Gdk.Event) => void
      onButtonPressed?: (self: Self, state: Gdk.ButtonEvent) => void
      onButtonReleased?: (self: Self, state: Gdk.ButtonEvent) => void

      onHoverEnter?: (self: Self, x: number, y: number) => void
      onHoverLeave?: (self: Self) => void
      onMotion?: (self: Self, x: number, y: number) => void

      onScroll?: (self: Self, dx: number, dy: number) => void
      onScrollDecelerate?: (self: Self, vel_x: number, vel_y: number) => void
  }
  ```

- `setup`: `(self): void` setup function that runs after constructor
  ```tsx
  // without `setup`
  function MyWidget() {
      const button = Widget.Button()
      // setup button
      return button
  }

  // using `setup`
  function MyWidget() {
      function setup(button: Widget.Button) {
          // setup button
      }

      return <buttons setup={setup} />
  }
  ```

There is also a `hook` utility

```tsx
// without `hook`
function MyWidget() {
    const id = gobject.connect("signal", callback)
    const unsub = variable.subscribe(callback)

    return <box
        onDestroy={() => {
            gobject.disconnect(id)
            unsub()
        }}
    />
}

// with `hook`
import { hook } from "astal/gtk4"

function MyWidget() {
    return <box
        setup={(self) => {
            hook(self, gobject, "signal", callback)
            hook(self, variable, callback)
        }}
    />
}
```

### How to use non builtin Gtk widgets

Using the `astalify` function you can create wrappers around widget constructors
to make them behave like builtin widgets.
The `astalify` function will do the followings:

- make `gobject` properties accept and consume `Binding` objects
- handle properties listed above
- set up signal handlers that are passed as props prefixed with `on`

```tsx
import GObject from "gi://GObject"
import { Gtk, astalify, type ConstructProps } from "astal/gtk4"

type CalendarProps = ConstructProps<Gtk.Calendar, Gtk.Calendar.ConstructorProps>
const Calendar = astalify<Gtk.Calendar, Gtk.Calendar.ConstructorProps>(Gtk.Calendar, {
    // if it is a container widget, define children setter and getter here
    getChildren(self) { return [] },
    setChildren(self, children) {},
})

function MyWidget() {
    function setup(button: Gtk.Calendar) {

    }

    return <Calendar
        setup={setup}
        onDaySelected={(self) => {
            print(self.day)
        }}
    />
}
```
