Slider formatting slice

  • Article

Slider is a simple formatting slice which is used to represent numeric and integer object types from capabilities.json file.

Example: Slider implementation

In this example, we show how to build a Slider slice using formatting model utils.

Capabilities object

Insert the following JSON fragment into the capabilities.json file.

{
  // ... same level as dataRoles and dataViewMappings
  "objects": {
    "labels": {
      "properties": {
        "min": {
          "type": {
            "numeric": true
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Formatting model class

Insert the following code fragment into the settings file.

import { formattingSettings } from "powerbi-visuals-utils-formattingmodel";

class LabelsCardSetting extends formattingSettings.SimpleCard {
    name: string = "labels"; // same as capabilities object name
    displayName: string = "Labels";

    public minValue : formattingSettings.Slider = new formattingSettings.Slider({
        name: "min", // same as capabilities property name
        displayName: "Min value",
        value: 50
    });
    
    public slices: formattingSettings.Slice[] = [ this.minValue ];
}

export class VisualSettings extends formattingSettings.Model {
    public labels: LabelsCardSetting = new LabelsCardSetting();
    public cards: formattingSettings.SimpleCard[] = [this.labels];
}

Validators (optional)

You can validate Slider slice input by specifying options property as in the example:

import powerbi from "powerbi-visuals-api";
import { formattingSettings } from "powerbi-visuals-utils-formattingmodel";

class LabelsCardSetting extends formattingSettings.SimpleCard {
    name: string = "labels"; // same as capabilities object name
    displayName: string = "Labels";

    public minValue : formattingSettings.Slider = new formattingSettings.Slider({
        name: "min", // same as capabilities property name
        displayName: "Min value",
        value: 50,
        options: // optional input value validator  
        {
            maxValue: {
                type: powerbi.visuals.ValidatorType.Max,
                value: 80
            },
            minValue: {
                type: powerbi.visuals.ValidatorType.Min,
                value: 30
            }
        }
    });
    
    public slices: formattingSettings.Slice[] = [ this.minValue ];
}
