# ShadowTemplate
A component to aid creating ShadowDOM based components (when required), heavily
inspired by the upcoming Declarative Shadow DOM spec, a new way to implement and
use Shadow DOM directly in HTML.
Instead of passing `shadowroot="open|closed"` as you would with Declarative
Shadow DOM we have a `@shadowRoot` argument to which you would pass the actual
Shadow DOM element (which itself either open or closed). You can get a reference
to this by using the `{{attach-shadow}}` modifier.
Additionally a `@styles` argument is made available for you to optionally
pass completely isolated, scoped, constructable stylesheets to be used for the
Shadow DOM tree (you can also continue to use `<style>` within the template
itself also if necessary).
For the moment we'd generally use a standard div element and add Shadow DOM to
it, but as shown in the second example, you could also use it to make
Glimmerized native custom-elements using Declarative ShadowDOM and
Constructable Stylesheets.
**Important:** As ShadowDOM elements are completely isolated please take care
to use the features available (slots/parts etc) to make sure components built in
this way can make use of a11y functionality, i.e. any elements having necessary
`id` relationships for a11y reasons should be slotted to ensure that the all
`id`s remain in the LightDOM. Native form controls such as inputs etc should
also be slotted in order to keep them in the LightDOM to ensure that native
form functionality continues to work.
Beside several advantages of isolated DOM/CSS ShadowDOM slots can also be used
within conditionals, something which is currently not possible with
Glimmer/Ember slots. Mixing Glimmer/Handlebars conditionals with native
ShadowDOM slots will give you this additional feature (see truthy conditional in
the example below).
```hbs preview-template
<div
class={{class-map
"component-name"
}}
...attributes
{{attach-shadow (set this 'shadow')}}
>
<ShadowTemplate
@shadowRoot={{this.shadow}}
@styles={{css '
:host {
background-color: rgb(var(--tone-strawberry-500) / 20%);
padding: 1rem; /* 16px */
}
header {
color: purple;
}
p {
color: green;
}
::slotted(header) {
color: blue;
}
::slotted(p) {
color: red;
}
header {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
header::before {
margin-right: 0.375rem; /* 6px */
}
'}}
>
<header part="header">
<slot name="header">
<h1>Default Header</h1>
</slot>
</header>
<!-- Wrap the slot in a conditional -->
{{#if true}}
<slot name="body">
<p>Default Body</p>
</slot>
{{/if}}
<slot>
<!-- The default slot -->
</slot>
</ShadowTemplate>
</div>
```
```css
.component-name::part(header)::before {
@extend %with-logo-consul-color-icon, %as-pseudo;
width: 2rem; /* 32px */
height: 2rem; /* 32px */
}
```
Example with a custom element. **Please note:** These must still be instantiated
using Glimmer syntax i.e. `<ComponentName />` not `<component-name />` but a
`<component-name />` element will be rendered to the DOM instead of a `<div>`.
```hbs preview-template
<component-name
...attributes
{{attach-shadow (set this 'shadow')}}
>
<ShadowTemplate
@shadowRoot={{this.shadow}}
@styles={{css '
header {
color: purple;
}
p {
color: green;
}
::slotted(header) {
color: blue;
}
::slotted(p) {
color: red;
}
header {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
header::before {
margin-right: 0.375rem; /* 6px */
}
'}}
>
<header part="header">
<slot name="header">
<h1>Default Header</h1>
</slot>
</header>
{{#if true}}
<slot name="body">
<p>Default Body</p>
</slot>
{{/if}}
<slot>
<!-- The default slot -->
</slot>
</ShadowTemplate>
</component-name>
```
```css
component-name::part(header)::before {
@extend %with-logo-consul-color-icon, %as-pseudo;
width: 2rem; /* 32px */
height: 2rem; /* 32px */
}
```
