React-TaxonomyPicker-PnP

A Taxonomy Picker control built with TypeScript for React based on React-Select and PnP JS SP-Taxonomy. This version was built because a dependency on JSOM was considered undesirable and an SPFx webpart context was unavailable.

Always consider using the SPFx React TaxonomyPicker before using this one. But if you can't or won't use SPFx, this is a nice alternative.

There is one drawback to the original: async searching for terms can currently not be done on a termset, only on a termstore.

Features

• Retrieve Terms from a Term Set by Term Set GUID.
• Support for large Term Set using Async mode
  • Configurable via termSetCountMaxSwapToAsync property
• Use PnP JS SP-Taxonomy
• Use Promise (polyfill it if needed IE)

Features not supported

• Add new Terms (Open TermSets)

Scenarios supported

• SharePoint Web Part using Script Editor or Content Editor Web Part
• SharePoint Framework Web Part (SPFx)
• ES6 project consumer sample
• TypeScript project consumer sample
• SPFx project consumer sample

Scenarios not supported

• SharePoint Provider-hosted app
• Other environment in which we are not allowed to use JSOM
• Add new terms to the Taxonomy Store (specific for get terms by now)

Installation

Steps to use react-taxonomypicker-pnp in your React project

1.Install from NPM

npm install --save react-taxonomypicker-pnp

Note: You need to install the PnP packages or JS file separately!

2. Import and use in your application

import TaxonomyPicker from "react-taxonomypicker-pnp";
// Optionally include its styles in you build process as well
import "react-taxonomypicker-pnp/dist/React.TaxonomyPicker.css";

Though you can also use theming for this.

3. Usage

Mock / Local mode

Don't configure termSetGuid and load the options from defaultOptions object.

<TaxonomyPicker
  name="Language"
  displayName="Language"
  defaultOptions={[
    { label: "English", value: "f50249b6-310d-43b6-aaa6-f0cb46d851bf" },
    { label: "Spanish", value: "237ca323-1ed8-4199-a49b-a9f7ce4256bf" },
    { label: "German", value: "44024c7e-f738-4755-90e1-15866327c806" },
    { label: "Italian", value: "65f67491-bdca-491a-84fa-f6fd913f40fa" },
  ]}
  multi
  showPath
/>

SharePoint environment mode

Configure termSetGuid with the desired term set

<TaxonomyPicker
  name="Language"
  displayName="Language"
  termSetGuid="26ebf149-101a-4996-9df2-8179a537350d"
  termSetName="Language"
  termSetCountMaxSwapToAsync={100}
  multi
  showPath
/>

Setup PnP Context

Don't forget to setup the PnP context in your component constructor.

sp.setup({
 
  sp: {
    headers: {
      Accept: "application/json;odata=verbose",
    },
    baseUrl: url
    // For example: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl (In classic SP)
  },
});

Theming

The picker uses react-select and supports it's theming. Simply add a theme property and implement it like so:

<TaxonomyPicker
  ...
  theme={theme => ({
      ...theme,
      borderRadius: 0,
      colors: {
        ...theme.colors,
        primary: 'green',
        primary25: 'blue',
        primary50: 'red'
      },
    })}
  />

Docker

For use with docker a docker file has been included. Take the following steps to use it if you are a docker user:

1.Update webpack/webpack.config.dev.js

the following line should be uncommented on the devServer property.

host:"0.0.0.0",

2.Build the docker file

docker build . -t=react-taxonomypicker

3.Run the docker command

docker run -it --rm -p 3000:3000 -v ${PWD}:/usr/app/react-taxonomypicker react-taxonomypicker

This command can also be executed by running the dock.ps1

Done

• Expose as a Module / Global / UMD library
• Upload to npm
• Create ES6 sample application for usage
• Create TypeScript sample application for usage
• Create SPFx webpart sample for usage
• Create types and include them with the npm package
• onPickerChange event handler exposed
• react-select properties exposed (extends them)
• termSetCountMaxSwapToAsync property exposed to choose between Sync / Async modes
• defaultOptions array exposed to enable input mock data when no termSetGuid configured
• Create and Expose properties for custom styles

TODOs

• Create types to allow people include with @types
