Posts component

Use the Posts component to render a feed of posts and comments.

Element: <wy-posts>
Class: WyPosts

Usage

First import and configure Weavy and the WyPosts component.

import { Weavy, WyPosts } from "@weavy/uikit-web";

const weavy = new Weavy();
weavy.url = "https://myenvironment.weavy.io";
weavy.tokenFactory = async (refresh) => "token_from_server";

Then add the <wy-posts> component to your HTML. Since it is a contextual app you must specify the uid property. The corresponding app will be created automatically on the server when a new uid is defined.

You can also adjust permissions and details for the app using the Apps API.

<wy-posts uid="product-1-feed"></wy-posts>

Note: The unique ids (uid) used when creating apps, users etc. is something you decide what it should be. Since the apps are contextual, the uid is often related to the context it's in. For example "product-123-chat", "customer-2-files" etc.

Properties

Property Type Default Description
uid string Unique identifier for the Posts app to load
features FeaturesConfigType {} Overrides the default features available for the product
submodals boolean false Enables modal compatibility with other modals, backdrops and focus-traps. Note that it may have implications with layout (such as z-index effects) in your app.

The available features are controlled by your product license. The features config is opt-out, meaning you can disable available features, but never enable features that are not included in your license.

Feature Description
attachments Disable the possibility to upload local attachments.
cloudFiles Disable the cloud file picker (Google Drive, Dropbox etc).
embeds Disable creating embeds from urls in the post text.
meetings Disable Zoom meetings.
mentions Disable the possibility to mention other people in the directory.
previews Disable previews of files.
reactions Disable the possibility to add emoji reactions to a message.
polls Disable possibility to create a poll.
comments Disable comments on a post.

Example: Render a posts component without embeds and polls.

const posts = new WyPosts();
posts.features = {
  embeds: false,
  polls: false,
};

document.body.append(posts);
