## Installation

```bash
# Using pnpm (recommended)
pnpm add -D @design.estate/dees-wcctools

# Using npm
npm install @design.estate/dees-wcctools --save-dev
```

## Quick Start

### 1. Create Your Component

```typescript
import { DeesElement, customElement, html, css, property } from '@design.estate/dees-element';

@customElement('my-button')
export class MyButton extends DeesElement {
  // Define a demo for the catalogue
  public static demo = () => html`
    <my-button .label=${'Click me!'} .variant=${'primary'}></my-button>
  `;

  @property({ type: String })
  accessor label: string = 'Button';

  @property({ type: String })
  accessor variant: 'primary' | 'secondary' = 'primary';

  public static styles = [
    css`
      :host {
        display: inline-block;
      }
      button {
        padding: 8px 16px;
        border-radius: 4px;
        border: none;
        cursor: pointer;
      }
      button.primary {
        background: #3b82f6;
        color: white;
      }
      button.secondary {
        background: #6b7280;
        color: white;
      }
    `
  ];

  public render() {
    return html`
      <button class="${this.variant}">${this.label}</button>
    `;
  }
}
```

### 2. Set Up Your Catalogue

```typescript
// catalogue.ts
import { setupWccTools } from '@design.estate/dees-wcctools';
import { html } from 'lit';

// Import your components
import * as elements from './components/index.js';
import * as views from './views/index.js';
import * as pages from './pages/index.js';

// Initialize with sections-based configuration
setupWccTools({
  sections: [
    {
      name: 'Pages',
      type: 'pages',
      items: pages,
    },
    {
      name: 'Views',
      type: 'elements',
      items: views,
      icon: 'web',
    },
    {
      name: 'Elements',
      type: 'elements',
      items: elements,
      sort: ([a], [b]) => a.localeCompare(b),
    },
  ],
});
```

### 3. Create an HTML Entry Point

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>Component Catalogue</title>
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
</head>
<body style="margin: 0; padding: 0;">
  <script type="module" src="./catalogue.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
```

## 📂 Sections Configuration

The sections-based API gives you full control over how components are organized in the sidebar.

### Section Properties

| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `name` | `string` | Display name for the section header |
| `type` | `'elements' \| 'pages'` | How items render (`elements` show demos, `pages` render directly) |
| `items` | `Record<string, any>` | Object containing element classes or page factories |
| `filter` | `(name, item) => boolean` | Optional filter function to include/exclude items |
| `sort` | `([a, itemA], [b, itemB]) => number` | Optional sort function for ordering items |
| `icon` | `string` | Optional Material Symbols icon name |
| `collapsed` | `boolean` | Start section collapsed (default: `false`) |

### Advanced Example

```typescript
import { setupWccTools } from '@design.estate/dees-wcctools';
import * as allElements from './elements/index.js';
import * as pages from './pages/index.js';

setupWccTools({
  sections: [
    {
      name: 'Pages',
      type: 'pages',
      items: pages,
    },
    {
      name: 'Form Controls',
      type: 'elements',
      items: allElements,
      icon: 'edit_note',
      filter: (name) => name.startsWith('form-') || name.includes('input'),
      sort: ([a], [b]) => a.localeCompare(b),
    },
    {
      name: 'Layout',
      type: 'elements',
      items: allElements,
      icon: 'dashboard',
      filter: (name) => name.startsWith('layout-') || name.startsWith('grid-'),
    },
    {
      name: 'Legacy',
      type: 'elements',
      items: allElements,
      filter: (name) => name.startsWith('legacy-'),
      collapsed: true,  // Start collapsed
    },
  ],
});
```

### Legacy API (Still Supported)

```typescript
// The old format still works for simple use cases
setupWccTools(elements, pages);
```

## Features

### 🎯 Live Property Editing

The properties panel automatically detects and allows editing of:

| Property Type | Editor |
|--------------|--------|
| **String** | Text input |
| **Number** | Number input |
| **Boolean** | Checkbox |
| **Enum** | Select dropdown |
| **Object/Array** | JSON editor modal |

### 📱 Viewport Testing

Test your components across different screen sizes:

- **Phone** — 320px width
- **Phablet** — 600px width
- **Tablet** — 768px width
- **Desktop** — Full width (native)

### 🌓 Theme Support

Components automatically adapt to light/dark themes. Use CSS custom properties with the theme manager:

```typescript
import { cssManager } from '@design.estate/dees-element';

public static styles = [
  css`
    :host {
      color: ${cssManager.bdTheme('#1a1a1a', '#e5e5e5')};
      background: ${cssManager.bdTheme('#ffffff', '#0a0a0a')};
    }
  `
];
```

### 🎬 Screen Recording

Record component demos directly from the catalogue:

- **Viewport Recording** — Record just the component viewport
- **Full Screen Recording** — Capture the entire screen
- **Audio Support** — Add microphone commentary with live level monitoring
- **Video Trimming** — Trim start/end before export with visual timeline
- **WebM Export** — High-quality video output

Click the red record button in the bottom toolbar to start.

### 🧪 Demo Tools

The demotools module provides enhanced testing capabilities with `dees-demowrapper`:

```typescript
import '@design.estate/dees-wcctools/demotools';

@customElement('my-component')
export class MyComponent extends DeesElement {
  public static demo = () => html`
    <dees-demowrapper .runAfterRender=${async (wrapper) => {
      // Find elements using standard DOM APIs
      const myComponent = wrapper.querySelector('my-component');

      // Simulate user interactions
      myComponent.value = 'Test value';
      await myComponent.updateComplete;

      // Work with multiple elements
      wrapper.querySelectorAll('.item').forEach((el, i) => {
        console.log(`Item ${i}:`, el.textContent);
      });
    }}>
      <my-component></my-component>
      <div class="item">Item 1</div>
      <div class="item">Item 2</div>
    </dees-demowrapper>
  `;
}
```

### 🎭 Multiple Demos

Components can expose multiple demo variations:

```typescript
@customElement('my-button')
export class MyButton extends DeesElement {
  public static demo = [
    () => html`<my-button variant="primary">Primary</my-button>`,
    () => html`<my-button variant="secondary">Secondary</my-button>`,
    () => html`<my-button variant="danger">Danger</my-button>`,
  ];
}
```

Each demo appears as a numbered item in an expandable folder in the sidebar.

### 🗂️ Demo Groups

Organize elements into groups within a section for better discoverability:

```typescript
@customElement('my-input')
export class MyInput extends DeesElement {
  // Single group
  public static demoGroups = 'Form Controls';

  // Or multiple groups — element appears in each
  public static demoGroups = ['Form Controls', 'Inputs'];

  public static demo = () => html`<my-input></my-input>`;
}
```

Groups appear as collapsible headers in the sidebar, sorted alphabetically. Searching matches group names too — searching "Form Controls" shows all elements in that group.

### ⏳ Async Demos

Return a `Promise` from `demo` for async setup:

```typescript
public static demo = async () => {
  const data = await fetchSomeData();
  return html`<my-component .data=${data}></my-component>`;
};
```

### 🎯 Container Queries

Components can respond to their container size using the `wccToolsViewport` container:

```typescript
public static styles = [
  css`
    @container wccToolsViewport (min-width: 768px) {
      :host {
        flex-direction: row;
      }
    }

    @container wccToolsViewport (max-width: 767px) {
      :host {
        flex-direction: column;
      }
    }
  `
];
```

## Component Guidelines

### Required for Catalogue Display

1. Components must expose a static `demo` property returning a Lit template (or array of templates)
2. Use `@property()` decorators with the `accessor` keyword for editable properties
3. Export component classes for proper detection

### Best Practices

```typescript
@customElement('best-practice-component')
export class BestPracticeComponent extends DeesElement {
  // ✅ Static demo property (single or array)
  public static demo = () => html`
    <best-practice-component
      .complexProp=${{ key: 'value' }}
      simpleAttribute="test"
    ></best-practice-component>
  `;

  // ✅ Typed properties with defaults (TC39 decorators)
  @property({ type: String })
  accessor title: string = 'Default Title';

  // ✅ Complex property without attribute
  @property({ attribute: false })
  accessor complexProp: { key: string } = { key: 'default' };

  // ✅ Enum with proper typing
  @property({ type: String })
  accessor variant: 'small' | 'medium' | 'large' = 'medium';
}
```

## URL Routing

The catalogue uses URL routing for deep linking:

```
/wcctools-route/:sectionName/:itemName/:demoIndex/:viewport/:theme

Examples:
/wcctools-route/Elements/my-button/0/desktop/dark
/wcctools-route/Views/view-dashboard/0/tablet/bright
/wcctools-route/Pages/home/0/desktop/dark
```

## API Reference

### `setupWccTools(config)`

Initialize the WCC Tools dashboard with sections configuration.

```typescript
interface IWccSection {
  name: string;
  type: 'elements' | 'pages';
  items: Record<string, any>;
  filter?: (name: string, item: any) => boolean;
  sort?: (a: [string, any], b: [string, any]) => number;
  icon?: string;
  collapsed?: boolean;
}

interface IWccConfig {
  sections: IWccSection[];
}

setupWccTools(config: IWccConfig): void;

// Legacy (still supported)
setupWccTools(elements: Record<string, any>, pages?: Record<string, TTemplateFactory>): void;
```

### `DeesDemoWrapper`

Component for wrapping demos with post-render logic.

| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `runAfterRender` | `(wrapper) => void \| Promise<void>` | Callback after wrapped elements render |

The wrapper provides full DOM API access:
- `wrapper.querySelector()` — Find single element
- `wrapper.querySelectorAll()` — Find multiple elements
- `wrapper.children` — Access child elements directly

### Recording Components (Advanced)

For custom recording integrations:

```typescript
import { RecorderService } from '@design.estate/dees-wcctools';

const recorder = new RecorderService({
  onDurationUpdate: (duration) => console.log(`${duration}s`),
  onRecordingComplete: (blob) => console.log('Recording done!', blob),
  onAudioLevelUpdate: (level) => console.log(`Audio: ${level}%`),
});

await recorder.startRecording({ mode: 'viewport' });
// ... later
recorder.stopRecording();
```
