StaticButton

Inherits: StaticComponent

StaticButton is a headless base class for <button> components. Unlike the input headless classes, it does not bind to a model — buttons don’t have an asp-for analogue. It adds a validated type attribute and a Disabled flag, leaving styling and child content composition to your component template.

Namespace

TechGems.StaticComponents.Headless

Usage

using TechGems.StaticComponents.Headless;

namespace YourAssembly.Views.Components;

public class PinesButton : StaticButton { }

@* ~/Views/Components/PinesButton.cshtml *@
@model PinesButton

<button type="@Model.Type"
        disabled="@(Model.Disabled ? "disabled" : null)"
        class="…">
    @Model.ChildContent
</button>

@* consumer view *@
<pines-button type="submit">Save changes</pines-button>
<pines-button type="button" disabled="true">Loading…</pines-button>

Public Properties

`Type`

[HtmlAttributeName("type")]
public string Type { get; set; } = "button";

The HTML type attribute the rendered <button> should carry. Only "button", "submit" and "reset" are accepted — any other value throws ArgumentException at render time, so typos surface immediately instead of producing broken HTML.

Attribute	Value
HTML attribute	`type`
Required	No
Default	`"button"`
Accepted values	`"button"`, `"submit"`, `"reset"`

`Disabled`

[HtmlAttributeName("disabled")]
public bool Disabled { get; set; } = false;

A boolean that maps to the consumer-facing disabled HTML attribute, surfaced as a C# bool so your template can branch on it directly.

Attribute	Value
HTML attribute	`disabled`
Required	No
Default	`false`

Methods

`ProcessAsync(TagHelperContext context, TagHelperOutput output)`

public override async Task ProcessAsync(TagHelperContext context, TagHelperOutput output)

Validates that Type is one of the three accepted values and then delegates to StaticComponent.ProcessAsync.

Error Conditions

Condition	Exception
`Type` is null, empty, or not one of `"button"` / `"submit"` / `"reset"`	`ArgumentException`
