- 5. Recap Episode 1 recap • Lightning Web Components - Introduction • Sample Gallery • Component Library and Playground • Base Lightning Components • Developer Tooling – Salesforce CLI and VS Code • Lightning Web Components Demo Episode 2 recap • Work with Data • Base Lightning Components which use Lightning Data Service • Wire service with Lightning Data Service and UI API • Wire service with Apex Methods • Imperative Apex Calls • Configuring for App Builder
- 6. Agenda ● Component Composition ● Inter Component Communication and Events ● Lifecycle hooks ● Pub sub communication ● Interoperability and Co-existence with Aura
- 8. Composition Owner – owns the template Container Component Component Container Component Component Component Component Component Component <!-- todoApp.html --> <template> <c-todo-wrapper> <c-todo-item item-name="Milk"></c-todo-item> </c-todowrapper> </template> <c-todo-item item-name=”Bread"></c-todo-item> Owner: • Set public properties on child • Call public methods on child • Listen for any events from child Container: • Can read public properties on child • Call public methods on child • Listen for events bubbled from child
- 10. Intercomponent Communication • Parent to Child • Child to Parent • Lightning web component to Lightning web component • Lightning web component to Aura component
- 11. Parent to Child Communication Parent Child <c-todo-item item-name={name}></c-todoitem> @api itemName; Parent HTML Child JS(todoItem) Read Only
- 12. Demo Parent to Child Communication
- 13. Child to Parent Communication Parent Child Parent HTML Child JS(display) Event TypeEvent type Naming conventions • No uppercase letters • No spaces • Use underscores to separate words • Don’t prefix your event name with string ‘on’ <c-display onshowdata={handleData}></c-display> showdataHandler() { this.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent(‘showdata’)); } this.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent(‘showdata’,{detail: this.data})); handleData(event){ myData=event.detail; } Parent JS
- 14. Demo Child to Parent Communication
- 15. Shadow DOM • The elements in each Lightning web component are encapsulated in a shadow tree • This part of the DOM is called a shadow tree because it’s hidden from the document that contains it • The shadow tree affects how you work with CSS, events, and the DOM • Since not all browsers that Salesforce supports implement Shadow DOM, LWC uses a shadow DOM polyfill <c-todo-app> #shadow-root <div> <p>Your To Do List</p> </div> <c-todo-item> #shadow-root <div> <p>Go to the store</p> </div> </c-todo-item> </c-todo-app> Shadow tree for todoApp Shadow tree for todoItem
- 16. Event Propagation Phases Event propogation can be controlled using two properties on the event. bubbles • A Boolean value indicating whether the event bubbles up through the DOM or not • Defaults to false. composed • A Boolean value indicating whether the event can pass through the shadow boundary • Defaults to false DOM Event propogation phases
- 17. Controlling Event Propagation bubbles: false and composed: false The event doesn’t bubble up through the DOM and doesn’t cross the shadow boundary. bubbles: true and composed: false The event bubbles up through the DOM, but doesn’t cross the shadow boundary. bubbles: true and composed: true The event bubbles up through the DOM, crosses the shadow boundary, and continues bubbling up through the DOM to the document root. bubbles: false and composed: true Lightning web components don’t use this configuration // myComponent.js this.dispatchEvent( new CustomEvent('notify', { bubbles: true }) ); Sample
- 18. Lifecycle Hooks
- 19. Lifecycle hook Triggered at a specific phase of a component instance’s lifecycle • connectedCallback() à Called when the element is inserted into document • disconnectedCallback() à Called when an element is removed from document • renderCallback() à Called after every render of the component • errorCallback(error,stack) à Called when a descendant component throws an error in one of its lifecycle hooks. This hook is specific to Lightning Web Components Callback methods
- 20. Lifecycle – Component creation with composition Constructor called on parent Public property pending to be updated? Update the public property value Parent inserted into DOM connectedCallback called on parent Parent rendered Constructor called on child Public property pending to be updated? Child inserted into DOM connectedCallback called on child Child rendered renderedCallback called on child renderedCallback called on parent Update the public property value Yes Yes
- 21. Lifecycle – Component removed Parent removed from DOM disconnectedCallback called on parent Child removed from DOM disconnectedCallback called on child
- 22. Component to Component communication Component Component Publisher Subscriber registerListener Fire event Handle event pubsub events Can be used in connectedCallback
- 23. pubsub module • pubsub is a singleton library that follows publish subscribe pattern • The Lightning web components sample repositories include a pubsub module which can be used in your code • Each component that subscribes to the event receives the event • Aura components consume the pubsub module via a Lightning web component wrapper called aurapubsub
- 26. LWC and Aura components composition strategies Nested Composition and Side-by-side Composition Lightning App Page Aura Component Lightning Web Component Aura Component Lightning Web Component Lightning Web Component Lightning Web Component Salesforce Org Aura Component Events Aura Application Events LDS/ UI API Lightning Event Service* Javascript custom Events/Public API
- 28. Aura Migration?
- 29. Migrating From Aura components to LWC Migration Strategy • Identify the components that only render UI and migrate • Find the Aura component whose performance is critical and migrate • Make a migration decision • Migrate one component to see how concepts in the Aura programming model map to concepts in LWC programming model and then you can make decision to • Undertake a larger migration effort • Use Lightning web components for new components only • Stick with Aura components for now
