StaticLabel

Abstract Inherits: StaticComponent

StaticLabel is the headless base class for standalone <label> components. Use it when your UI kit needs a label that can sit next to any input rather than living inside an input component’s template.

Note that StaticLabel inherits from StaticComponent (not StaticInputBase) and exposes the bound expression as For instead of InputExpression — but the consumer-facing attribute is still asp-for.

Namespace

TechGems.StaticComponents.Headless

Usage

using TechGems.StaticComponents.Headless;

namespace YourAssembly.Views.Components;

public class PinesLabel : StaticLabel { }

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

<label static-for="@Model.For" class="…"></label>

@* consumer view *@
<pines-label asp-for="Form.FullName"></pines-label>

The rendered label content comes from the property’s [DisplayName] if present, otherwise the property name itself.

Public Properties

[HtmlAttributeName("asp-for")]
