import { FocusTrap } from "@valu/focus-trap";

const trap = new FocusTrap({
    containers: document.querySelectorAll(".container"),
});

trap.enable();

document.querySelector("button#disable").addEventListener(() => {
    trap.disable();
});

Options

The FocusTrap constructor takes following options object

interface FocusTrapOptions {
    containers: HTMLElement | HTMLElement[] | NodeList | null | undefined;

    /**
     * Disable the trap when user click an element outside of the selected
     * containers
     */
    outsideClickDisables?: boolean;

    /**
     * Disable the trap when user hits escape key
     */
    escDisables?: boolean;

    /**
     * Options to control aspects of the focusing process
     */
    focusOptions?: FocusOptions;

    /**
     * Executed before trap enables
     */
    onBeforeEnable?(trap: FocusTrap): void;

    /**
     * Executed after the trap has been enabled
     */
    onBeforeDisable?(trap: FocusTrap): void;

    /**
     * Execute before the trap gets disabled
     */
    onAfterEnable?(trap: FocusTrap): void;

    /**
     * Executed after the trap has been disabled. By default the focus trap
     * restores focus to the element that had the focus before trap activation.
     * This hook can used to focus some other element manually.
     */
    onAfterDisable?(trap: FocusTrap): void;

    /**
     * Skip focusing given tabbable when returning false
     */
    validateTabbable?(
        tabbable: HTMLElement,
        container: HTMLElement,
        trap: FocusTrap,
    ): boolean;
}
