Code Block Command — A tabbed CLI command block that switches between npm, pnpm, yarn and bun, remembers the choice, and copies to the clipboard.

Preview

npm install zod
npx shadcn@latest add button
previews.components.code-block-command.default.blade.php Blade
<div class="flex w-full flex-col gap-4">
    <x-ui.code-block-command npm="npm install zod" />
    <x-ui.code-block-command npm="npx shadcn@latest add button" :show="['npm', 'pnpm', 'bun']" />
</div>

Installation

terminal
php artisan ui:add code-block-command

Note

This component ships an Alpine behavior module at resources/js/ui/code-block-command.js. Import it once from your bundle so it registers on alpine:init:

resources/js/ui/index.js JS
import './code-block-command.js';

Registry contract

php artisan ui:add code-block-command writes only the files below. The CLI validates each file hash before writing and asks before it replaces a local change, unless you pass --force.

  • blade resources/views/components/ui/code-block-command.blade.php
  • js resources/js/ui/code-block-command.js
Registry dependencies
None — installs on its own.
Packages
composer: jml/brok:^0.2
npm: alpinejs

# Brok UI: Code Block Command (`code-block-command`)

A tabbed CLI command block that switches between npm, pnpm, yarn and bun, remembers the choice, and copies to the clipboard.

Brok UI is a Laravel Blade component registry. Installed components are plain Blade files the app owns.

## Install

```bash
php artisan ui:add code-block-command
```

## Usage

```blade
<div class="flex w-full flex-col gap-4">
    <x-ui.code-block-command npm="npm install zod" />
    <x-ui.code-block-command npm="npx shadcn@latest add button" :show="['npm', 'pnpm', 'bun']" />
</div>
```

## Props

- `npm` (mixed|null, default `null`)
- `pnpm` (mixed|null, default `null`)
- `yarn` (mixed|null, default `null`)
- `bun` (mixed|null, default `null`)
- `show` (mixed|null, default `null`)

## Use when

- Use for exact technical detail, code readability, diagnostics, and copyable reference material.
- Documenting an install or run command that differs per package manager.
- Letting a reader stay on their own package manager across a whole docs page.

## Avoid when

- Do not surface developer-specific patterns in end-user flows unless the task genuinely requires them.
- Showing a single command with no per-manager variant; code-block or code-line is enough.
- Switching between unrelated snippets; this control assumes the tabs say the same thing.

## Anti-patterns

- Exposing developer tooling in end-user flows without a task need

## Rules

- Use the `<brok:code-block-command>` tag (or `<x-ui.code-block-command>`) in Blade; do not rewrite the component.
- Prefer the documented props and variants over utility-class overrides; when a utility must win, use the `!` important modifier.
- Use semantic design tokens (`bg-primary`, `text-muted-foreground`), never raw colour utilities.
- Keep the `data-slot` attributes; they are the styling and test hooks.

## Links

Behavior

  • Only the package managers given a command are rendered as tabs, and show picks the one selected first.
  • The choice persists, so every command block on the page follows the last manager the reader picked.
  • Copying copies the visible tab's command and announces the result in a polite live region.
  • Installs a JavaScript behavior module when the registry item includes resources/js/ui files.
  • Declares registry capability flags: a11y, interactive, responsive, rtl, darkMode, localized.

Guidance

Developer and documentation tool

Expose exact technical or diagnostic information.

Use when

  • Use for exact technical detail, code readability, diagnostics, and copyable reference material.
  • Documenting an install or run command that differs per package manager.
  • Letting a reader stay on their own package manager across a whole docs page.

Avoid when

  • Do not surface developer-specific patterns in end-user flows unless the task genuinely requires them.
  • Showing a single command with no per-manager variant; code-block or code-line is enough.
  • Switching between unrelated snippets; this control assumes the tabs say the same thing.

Use instead

  • Plain-language product UI for nontechnical users

Accessibility

WCAG 2.2 AA Keyboard focus-visible RTL-ready Localized labels Dark mode
Keyboard

Focus
managed
  • The switcher is a real tablist: each tab carries aria-selected and roving tabindex, so arrow keys move between managers.
  • The copy confirmation is announced through aria-live="polite" rather than only shown.
  • Semantic HTML and a stable data-slot attribute for styling and scripting hooks.
  • Focus-visible rings use the ring token, so keyboard focus is always visible.
  • Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
  • Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces in the preview.
  • Labels go through __() and layout uses logical properties (ms-*, text-start), so it mirrors under dir="rtl" — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.
  • Dark mode uses the same semantic tokens under the dark class; high contrast follows forced-color system tokens.

Livewire

Needs wire:ignore

Add wire:ignore to the component root because its behavior owns rendered DOM.

livewire-component.blade.php Blade
<div wire:ignore>
    <div class="flex w-full flex-col gap-4">
        <x-ui.code-block-command npm="npm install zod" />
        <x-ui.code-block-command npm="npx shadcn@latest add button" :show="['npm', 'pnpm', 'bun']" />
    </div>
</div>

Validation

Validation support: native. Keep the error message connected with aria-describedby.

livewire-form.blade.php Blade
<form wire:submit="save" class="space-y-2">
    <brok:code-block-command
        wire:model="value"
        :aria-invalid="$errors->has('value') ? 'true' : 'false'"
        aria-describedby="value-error"
    />

    @error('value')
        <p id="value-error" role="alert">{{ $message }}</p>
    @enderror

    <brok:button type="submit" wire:loading.attr="disabled">
        <span wire:loading.remove>Save</span>
        <span wire:loading>Saving…</span>
    </brok:button>
</form>
