Use Attribute

const [attribute, setAttribute] = useAttribute('Attribute Name');

Overview

The useAttribute hook allows us to connect a component to an Attribute in our product's configurator.

It takes the name of the attribute that you want to interact with and returns an array where the first element is the data for that attribute, as returned by the getDisplayAttributes() function, and the second element is a function that can be used to update the value of that attribute, by prepping and passing the value on to setConfiguration().

Code Examples

For a Asset/Part Reference type Attribute

import { useAttribute } from '@threekit-tools/treble';

const AttributeComponent = () => {
const [attribute, setAttribute] = useAttribute('Attribute Name');

return (
<div>
<h2>{attribute.label}</h2>
<div>
{attribute.values.map((option, i) => (
<button
key={i}
type="button"
onClick={() => setAttribute(option.assetId)}
selected={option.assetId === attribute.value.assetId}
>
{option.label}
</button>
))}
</div>
</div>
);
};

For a String type Attribute with a defined option set

import { useAttribute } from '@threekit-tools/treble';

const AttributeComponent = () => {
const [attribute, setAttribute] = useAttribute('Attribute Name');

const selected = attribute.value;

return (
<div>
<h2>{attribute.label}</h2>
<div>
{attribute.values.map((option, i) => (
<button
type="button"
key={i}
onClick={() => setAttribute(option.value)}
selected={option.value === attribute.value}
>
{option.label}
</button>
))}
</div>
</div>
);
};
