Autosize

Autosize textarea uses react-textarea-autosize package. Textarea height will grow until maxRows are reached or indefinitely if maxRows not set.

import { Textarea } from '@asuikit/core';
function Demo() {
return (
<>
<Textarea
placeholder="Autosize with no rows limit"
label="Autosize with no rows limit"
autosize
minRows={2}
/>
<Textarea
label="Autosize with 4 rows max"
placeholder="Autosize with 4 rows max"
autosize
minRows={2}
maxRows={4}
/>
</>
);
}

Controlled

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Textarea } from '@asuikit/core';
function Demo() {
const [value, setValue] = useState('');
return <Textarea value={value} onChange={(event) => setValue(event.currentTarget.value)} />;
}

Disabled state

import { Textarea } from '@asuikit/core';
function Demo() {
return <Textarea disabled/>;
}

Invalid state and error

Comment should not include bad words
// Error as boolean – red border color
<Textarea error />
// Error as React node – red border color and message below input
<Textarea error="Comment should not include bad words" />

Get input ref

import { useRef } from 'react';
import { Textarea } from '@asuikit/core';
function Demo() {
const ref = useRef<HTMLTextAreaElement>(null);
return <Textarea ref={ref} />;
}

Accessibility

Provide aria-label in case you use component without label for screen reader support:

<Textarea /> // -> not ok, textarea is not labeled
<Textarea label="My textarea" /> // -> ok, textarea and label is connected
<Textarea aria-label="My textarea" /> // -> ok, label is not visible but will be announced by screen reader
