Programmatic access to the WAI-ARIA 1.1 Roles Model.
Utilities
Roles
import { roles } from 'aria-query';
A Map of role names to the role definition. For example:
let alertRole = roles.get('alert');
/**
* Value of alertRole
* {
* "requiredProps": [],
* "props": [
* "aria-expanded",

* ],

Elements to Roles
import { elementRoles } from 'aria-query';
HTML Elements with inherent roles are mapped to those roles. In the case of an element like <input>
, the element often requires a type
attribute to map to an ARIA role.
Map {
'{"name": "article"}' => Set { 'article' },
'{"name": "button"}' => Set { 'button' },
'{"name": "td"}' => Set { 'cell', 'gridcell' },
'{"name": "input", "attributes": [ {"name": "type", "value": "checkbox"}] }' => Set { 'checkbox' },
'{"name": "th"}' => Set { 'columnheader' },
'{"name": "select"}' => Set { 'combobox', 'listbox' },
'{"name": "menuitem"}' => Set { 'command', 'menuitem' },

}
The map of elements to roles is keyed by an HTML concept. An HTML concept corresponds to the baseConcepts
and relatedConcepts
of an ARIA role. Concepts exist in the context of a module
: HTML, XForms, Dublin Core, for example. The concept representation is an object literal with a name property (the element name) and an optional attributes array.
The roles are provided in a Set.
Role to element
import { roleElements } from 'aria-query';
ARIA roles are mapped to the HTML Elements with the same inherent role. Some roles, such as columnheader
are only mapped to an HMTL element that expresses specific attributes. In the case of <input>
, the element often requires a type
attribute to map to an ARIA role.
Map {
'article' => Set { '{"name": "article"}' },
'button' => Set { '{"name": "button"}' },
'cell' => Set { '{"name": "td"}' },
'checkbox' => Set { '{"name": "input", "attributes": [ {"name": "type", "value": "checkbox"}] }' },
'columnheader' => Set { '{"name": "th"}' },
'combobox' => Set { '{"name": "select"}' },
'command' => Set { '{"name": "menuitem"}' },
'definition' => Set { '{"name": "dd"}', '{"name": "dfn"}' },
