Slug input

Slug input allows user to enter a slug for a resource they're creating, for example a new workspace. It supports an optional prefix and validation states for asynchronous uniqueness checks.

Example

Always pair an input with a form field label so the input is named for everyone, including screen reader users.

Usage

Prefix

Show a prefix before the input to hint where the slug would be used via prefix prop.

Disabled

Input should be disabled, when it shouldn't be allowed to be interacted with.

Read only

A read only input shows a value and does not take focus. Add a clipboard button beside it when the value should be copied in one click.

Validation

SlugInput supports three states of validation via validationState prop:

  1. "validating" - Slug is being validated.
  2. "valid" - Slug is valid.
  3. "invalid" - Slug is invalid.

Size

The size prop impacts font-size and height. Default is set to md.

To set the width, use the width prop instead.

Guidelines

When to use

  • When users enter a URL-safe identifier for a resource they're creating, for example a new workspace.
  • When the value needs validation feedback, for example an asynchronous uniqueness check.

When not to use

  • If the value is free-form text rather than a slug, use a text input instead.

Content

  • Use sentence case for placeholder text.
  • End placeholder text with three dots.

Props

Inherits margin props.
