Table-of-content (TOC)

in earlier versions of pxp, tocs have been configured via a toolbar the toc field in the toolbar is deprecated now in favour of the configuration below it allow greater flexibility this guide presents a fully configurable and flexible method for implementing a table of contents (toc) in pxp reference app https //staging purplemanager com/#appdetail;id=9e5a0da6 c284 4720 9b59 d942b2c48bf7 https //staging purplemanager com/#appdetail;id=9e5a0da6 c284 4720 9b59 d942b2c48bf7 content body component (app + web) 1\ toc button 1\ 1 overview create a custom toc button using an html component this approach allows full control over styling, icon selection , and functionality 1\ 2 json configuration 1\ 2 1 views json { "tag" "img", "type" "html", "tap" { "type" "setcontextvariables", "variables" \[ { "key" "tocopened", "value" "$functions updatetoc($context tocopened)" } ] }, "attributes" { "src" "resource //dynamic/storefront/assets/images/icons/toc svg", }, "class" "toc icon" } 1\ 2 2 custom server js updatetoc (tocopened) => { return !tocopened; } explanation tag "img" → specifies the element type (an image in this case) type "html" → renders as a raw html component tap sets the tocopened context variable by calling the updatetoc function this toggles the toc list open/closed it also sets a context variable accordingly via custom server js attributes src path to the toc icon image in this example, the icon is stored in dynamic resources class "toc icon" → apply custom css for styling 2\ toc panel this section explains how to configure a fully functional toc panel that displays a list of content items, allows navigation to each, and provides a close action 2\ 1 json configuration 2\ 1 1 toc data source { "type" "content", "contextkey" "toc content", "filter" { "properties" { "key" "slug", "value" "\ bundleslug" } }, "fetchoptions" { "includebundledcontent" true } } explanation purpose this data source should be added to the data field of the view it provides the content list for the toc panel content type in this example, a bundle type is requested includebundledcontent ensures that post data within the bundle is included in the response alternative the same logic can be implemented in the url resolver const content = await dataresolver findcontentbyid(id, { includebundledcontent true });
