Person component in Microsoft Graph Toolkit

Άρθρο
11/07/2024

The person component is used to display a person or contact by using their photo, name, email address, or any other person details.

The person component also uses the mgt-person-card to display a flyout card with additional information about the user. For details, see the Person Card section.

Example

The following example displays a person using the mgt-person component. You can use the code editor to see how properties change the behavior of the component.

HTML
React

Open this example in mgt.dev.

Setting the person details

You can use three properties to set the person details. Use only one of the following properties per instance:

Set the user-id attribute or userId property to fetch the user from Microsoft Graph by using their ID.
Set the person-query attribute or personQuery property to search Microsoft Graph for a given person. It chooses the first person available and fetches the person details. An email works best to ensure the right person is queried, but a name works as well.
Set the person-presence attribute or personPresence property to add a presence badge to person avatar manually.
Set the avatar-size attribute or avatarSize property to small or large to determine the size of avatar. This helps add the correct presence badge to the avatar. You need to choose the correct corresponding css custom properties shown below to further customize the avatar size. By default, the value is set to auto which will automatically decide how to render the presence based on the view property. We recommend using small if your avatar is smaller than 32px by 32px.

Use the person-details attribute or personDetails property to manually set the person details, as shown in the following example.

let personControl = document.getElementById('myPersonControl');
personControl.personDetails = {
    displayName: 'Nikola Metulev',
    mail: 'nikola@contoso.com',
    personImage: 'url'
}

If no image is provided, one is fetched (if available).

By default, the person component only requests the standard Microsoft Graph user set of properties. In order to request additional properties, declare them as any part of the line(x)Property.

Properties

You can use several properties to customize the component.

Attribute	Property	Description
user-id	userId	Set to a user ID to fetch that user's details and image from Microsoft Graph.
person-query	personQuery	Set to a name or email of a person to search for a person in Microsoft Graph and fetch the first person's details and image.
person-details	personDetails	Set to an object representing a person. Works with objects from the people, users, contacts, or group, resources.
fallback-details	fallbackDetails	Set to an object representing a person when no user/person/contact is found in Microsoft Graph.
person-image	personImage	Set the image to show for the person.
person-presence	personPresence	Set the presence for the person.
fetch-image	fetchImage	Set flag to fetch `personImage` automatically from Microsoft Graph based on the `personDetails` object provided by the user.
disable-image-fetch	disableImageFetch	Set flag to disable fetching of person image. It can be used to avoid unnecessary fetching from Microsoft Graph when specifying `personImage` property.
avatar-type	avatarType	Set to `initials` or `photo` to render either display state - default is photo.
avatar-size	avatarSize	Set the avatar size to `small`, `large`, or `auto`, helping also determine the correct size for the presence badge. The default value is `auto`. If the `view` attribute is set to `threelines` or `fourlines`, `avatar-size` is automatically treated as `large`, regardless of its actual value.
vertical-layout	verticalLayout	Set the component layout to vertical.
view	view	Set to control how the person is rendered. Default is `image`. `image` - show only avatar `oneline` - show avatar and first line (`displayName` by default) `twolines` - show avatar and two lines of text (`displayName` and `jobTitle` by default) `threelines` - show avatar and three lines of text (`displayName`, `jobTitle` and `department` by default) `fourlines` - show avatar and four lines of text (`displayName`, `jobTitle`, `department` and `email` by default) In `vertical-layout`, view changes. `twolines` - show avatar and two lines of text (`displayName` and `email` by default) `threelines` - show avatar and three lines of text (`displayName` , `email` and `department` by default)
line1-property	line1Property	Sets the property of the personDetails to use for the first line of text. Default is `displayName`.
line2-property	line2Property	Sets the property of the personDetails to use for the second line of text. Default is `jobTitle`.
line3-property	line3Property	Sets the property of the personDetails to use for the third line of text. Default is `department`.
line4-property	line4Property	Sets the property of the personDetails to use for the fourth line of text. Default is `email`.
show-presence	showPresence	Set flag to display person presence - default is `false`.
usage	usage	Specify where the component is being used in order to add customized personalization for it. Currently only supports `people` as used in the people component.
person-card	personCardInteraction	Sets the behavior to show the person card on the rendered person component. The allowed values are `none`, `hover` or `click`. Default is `none`.

Templates

The mgt-person component supports several templates that allow you to replace certain parts of the component. To specify a template, include a <template> element inside a component and set the data-type to one of the following values:

Data type	Data context	Description
loading	none	The template to render while the component is in a loading state.
no-data	none	The template to render when no person image or data is available.
default	person: The person details object `personImage`: The URL of the image `personPresence`: The presence details object for person.	The default template replaces the entire component with your own.
person-card	person: The person details object `personImage`: The URL of the image.	The template to update the mgt-person-card displayed on hover or click.
line1	person: The person details object	The template for the first line of person metadata.
line2	person: The person details object	The template for the second line of person metadata.
line3	person: The person details object	The template for the third line of person metadata.
line4	person: The person details object	The template for the fourth line of person metadata.

The following example defines a template for the person component.

Global component configuration

The MgtPerson class exposes a static config object that configures all person components in the application.

The following example shows how to use the config object.

import { MgtPerson } from '@microsoft/mgt-components';

MgtPerson.config.useContactApis = false;

The following properties are available on the config object.

Property	Description
useContactApis	`boolean` - Indicates whether the person component can use Microsoft Graph personal contacts API to search for contact details and photos. Default value is `true`.

Microsoft Graph permissions

This control uses the following Microsoft Graph APIs and permissions. For each API called, the user must have at least one of the permissions listed.
