Description
How can I dynamically change the color of the Stepper steps?
Solution
This example demonstrates how to validate or save each step and change its color dynamically based on the following requirements:
- If a specified step is validated successfully, its icon is colored in green.
- If the step validation fails, its icon is colored in red.
- If the step is saved, its icon is colored in blue.
- When selecting the next step, the previous step is colored in yellow if it has not been validated or saved.
The scenario relies on the following key steps:
- Create a "Validate step" button and handle its
clickevent. In theclickevent handler:
- Get the currently active step by using the
select()method of the Stepper. - Validate the step's content and store the step-index in a global array
validatedSteps. - If the validation succeeds, add class "correct" to the step HTML element. Otherwise, add class "errors-step".
- Create a "Save step" button and handle its
clickevent. In theclickevent handler:
- Get the currently active step and store its index in a global array
savedSteps. - Add class "save" to the step HTML element.
- Create a Stepper and handle its
Selectevent. In the event handler:
- Iterate through the
validatedSteps/savedStepsarrays and persist the added class of each step. - Add class "pending" to the steps that are not validated or saved.
- Set the respective CSS attributes (
background-colorandborder-color) to the classes "errors-step", "correct", "pending", and "save".
