• The <SystemMessage>component is intended to be wrapped in a <BottomBarContainer> and placed inside the site <header> landmark to create the right reading order for screen readers
  • The component uses live region roles ("alert" or "status") so that the content is read automatically by screen readers as soon as it appears or is updated.
  • The live regions has an accessible label "Important messages" which can be overridden with the customTranslations prop.
  • Parameters

    Returns ReactNode

Properties

contextTypes?: ValidationMap<any>

Lets you specify which legacy context is consumed by this component.

defaultProps?: Partial<SystemMessageProps>

Used to define default values for the props accepted by the component.

type Props = { name?: string }

const MyComponent: FC<Props> = (props) => {
return <div>{props.name}</div>
}

MyComponent.defaultProps = {
name: 'John Doe'
}
displayName?: string

Used in debugging messages. You might want to set it explicitly if you want to display a different name for debugging purposes.


const MyComponent: FC = () => {
return <div>Hello!</div>
}

MyComponent.displayName = 'MyAwesomeComponent'
propTypes?: WeakValidationMap<SystemMessageProps>

Used to declare the types of the props accepted by the component. These types will be checked during rendering and in development only.

We recommend using TypeScript instead of checking prop types at runtime.
