roving-tabindex-element-list v1.2.0

Roving tabindex element list

JavaScript library that keeps a list of Elements that can be navigated using tab. This is very useful when working with accessibility.

Usage

import NavigationList from 'roving-tabindex-element-list';

const navigationList = new NavigationList(); 

navigationList.registerElement(element1);
navigationList.registerElement(element2);

// congratulations, you can now use arrow keys + HOME + END to move between the elements in the list 

Altering behaviour with plugins

const plugin = {
  init: (navigationList) => {
    navigationList.on('beforeUpdateState', ({ elements }) => {
      console.log('State is updating for list: ', elements);
    });
  }
}
  
const navigationList = new NavigationList({
  plugins: [plugin]
});

List of included plugins

• Sort by dom position - Plugin that keeps the element list sorted based on element positions in the dom.
• Prevent wrapping - Plugin that prevents the tabindex from wrapping around to the last element, when pressing up on the first element, and vise versa.
