Named slots are awesome, they allow e.g. defining table columns inside a html.heex file like
<.table items={items}>
<:col let={f} field={:title}>...></:col>
</.table>
I want to write a reusable wrapper to allow selecting multiple table entries for bulk operations.
To achieve this, an additional column-slot is added to the list of columns and handed forward to the real table-render function.
@impl Phoenix.LiveComponent
def render(assigns) do
edit_col = %{
label: "",
field: :select,
inner_block: fn _changed, argument ->
assigns = assign(assigns, id: argument.id)
~H"""
<button rel="toggle-select" phx-click="toggle-select" phx-value-id={@id} phx-target={@myself}>
<input type="checkbox" checked={MapSet.member?(@selected, @id)} />
</button>
"""
end,
__slot__: :col
}
assigns
|> assign(:col, [edit_col | assigns.col])
|> FlopComponents.table()
end
This works, but edit_col is created using the private API.
Is there a better way to create a named slot inside Elixir-Code - like a pre-defined function slot that can be used instead?

I think the simplest way to is to just provide a boolean attribute:
If you wanted to make it more configurable, allowing the user to define the checkbox (I was a little unclear from your example) because you want to treat those columns different in the styling or not allowing a “row click” on them, you can make it its own slot:

Hi @sodapopcan, thanks for your super fast response.
The app has multiple data tables and uses a framework for rendering the table (
flop_phoenix, amazing work, btw.) - I don’t render the table itself.Your suggestion with a boolean flag would work. The current named-slot approach with using the private API however, comes with the advantage of having the whole selection-work encapsulate in a live-component (
handle_event, etc.) and by that not spread all over the place.
