Overview

Typescript decorators and type definitions for Polymer 3.0

Available Behaviors

@CustomElement()

This class decorator will automatically add the is() getter and register your element.

@customElement("my-element")
class MyElement extends Polymer.Element {

}

@Property(options?: PropertyOptions)

This property decorator will register your properties for you. Do not declare a properties getter. The type is inferred by the type declared in TypeScript. Assign defaults to the property directly.

class MyElement extends Polymer.Element {

    @property({ reflectToAttribute: true, notify: true })
    shape: string = "circle";
    
    @property()
    size: number = 60;    
}

Available PropertyOptions:

    notify?: boolean;
    reflectToAttribute?: boolean;
    readOnly?: boolean;

@Listen(eventName: string, targetElem?: string)

This function decorator adds an event listener for the provided event name and calls back the function when the event is fired.

TypeScript:

class MyElement extends Polymer.Element {

 //Listen for tap events on the element with an id="submitButton"
  @listen("tap", "submitButton")
  submitButtonTapHandler(e){
      doSomething();
  }
  
  //Listen for all tap events on MyElement
  @listen("tap")
  tapHandler(e){
      doSomething();
  }
}

HTML:

<paper-button id="submitButton">Submit</paper-button>

@GestureListen(eventName: string, targetElem?: string)

This function decorator adds an polymer gesture listener for the provided event name and calls back the function when the event is fired.

IMPORTANT: When using this decorator your class must apply the gesture mix-in.

<link rel="import" href="polymer/lib/mixins/gesture-event-listeners.html">

<script>
    class TestEvent extends Polymer.GestureEventListeners(Polymer.Element) {
      ...
</script>

TypeScript:

class MyElement extends Polymer.Element {

 //Listen for tap events on the element with an id="submitButton"
  @listen("tap", "submitButton")
  submitButtonTapHandler(e){
      doSomething();
  }
  
  //Listen for all tap events on MyElement
  @listen("tap")
  tapHandler(e){
      doSomething();
  }
}

HTML:

<paper-button id="submitButton">Submit</paper-button>

Computed(name: string)

This function decorator registers a computed property with the provided name. When one or more associated properties change, the computed property is updated.

TypeScript:
class MyElement extends Polymer.Element {
  @property( )
  numOne: number = 1;
    
  @property( )
  numTwo: number = 2;
        
  @computed('total')
  getSrc(numOne: number, numTwo: number) : number {
    return numOne + numTwo;
  }
}

HTML:

<h1>[[total]]</h1>

Result:

<h1>3</h1>

Example

my-element.ts

import Property from '../node_modules/@leavittsoftware/polymer-ts/property-decorator.js';
import Observe from '../node_modules/@leavittsoftware/polymer-ts/observe-decorator.js';
import { Element as PolymerElement } from '../node_modules/@polymer/polymer/polymer-element.js';

@CustomElement("my-element")
export class MyElement extends PolymerElement {
      
    @Property({ notify: true })
    personId: number = 44;

    @Property()
    size: number = 60;

    @Observe('size')
    _sizeChanged(size) {
        console.log("size changed to " + size);
    }
    
    @Computed('src')
    _computePictureSrc(personId: number, size: number) {
        var baseUrl = this.isDev() ? "https://dev.example.com/" : "https://example.com/";
        return `${baseUrl}Picture(${personId})/Default.Picture(size=${size})`;
    }
    
    static get template() {
        return `<style>
                 :host {
                    display: block;
                }            
          </style>
          <img src="{{src}}" style="height:[[size]]"></img>`;
