Header

:sparkles: Branch: header

Introduction

In this step, we'll learn how to configure the store's first component: the Header.

The Header plays a very important role on the store's main page, being responsible for housing other blocks that are crucial to user browsing, such as the search bar and the menu.

Desktop Header:

Mobile Header:

Configuring the Header

The Header block is responsivo, meaning that it can be configured to adapt to different devices, be it desktop or mobile.

Below, we can see an implementation example:

{
  "header": {
    "blocks": [
      "header-layout.desktop",
      "header-layout.mobile"
    ]
  },
  "header.full": {
    "blocks": [
      "header-layout.desktop",
      "header-layout.mobile"
    ]
  },

  "header-layout.desktop": {
    "children": [
      "header-row#notification",
      "header-row#main"
    ]
  },

  "header-layout.mobile": {
    "children": [
      "header-row#notification",
      "header-row#main-mobile",
      "header-row#search"
    ]
  },
}

Activity

We will now configure a Header for your store's main page from scratch, with a notification and search bar, logo, cart and login. We will not configure the menu for now, since we'll look at it in depth during our next activity.

To implement a Header containing all these blocks, we'll start out from the code mentioned above and thus be able to build a responsive header, adaptable to desktop and mobile users alike.

Unlike the behavior found in other blocks, the Header doesn't need to be declared in one your theme's templates, since it will rendered on every store page anyway. In this exercise, we will declare the header block in the header.jsonc file, which must be created in the store/blocks folder.
Thereafter, declare the following block:

"header-row#notification": {
  "children": [
    "header-spacer",
    "rich-text#header",
    "header-spacer"
  ]
},

Based on the block above, build the header-row#main, giving it the following children: logo, header-spacer, search-bar, minicart and login;
Still in the header-row#main block, declare the inverted, sticky and fullWidth props with the following values: true, true and false, respectively;
Copy and paste the code below to configure the header block for mobile, in the same way that we did for desktop before:

"header-row#main-mobile": {
  "children": [
    "logo",
    "header-spacer",
    "minicart",
    "login"
  ],

  "props": {
    "sticky": true,
    "inverted":true
  }
},

"header-row#search": {
  "children": [
    "search-bar"
  ],
  "props": {
    "sticky": true
  }
},

Declare the block responsible for defining the store's login and logo, using the code displayed below, which will be used by the Header of the two devices;

"login":{
  "props": {
    "showIconProfile": true,
    "iconLabel": "Login"
  }
},

"logo":{
  "props": {
    "url": "https://appliancetheme.vteximg.com.br/assets/vtex.file-manager-graphql/images/flatflat___6081e50402943bcb11bc45a8e613aa72.png"
  }
},

Lastly, we need to declare the notification Header line's main component ("header-row#notification"): the Rich Text;

"rich-text#header": {
  "props": {
    "text": "**Free Shipping on orders over $50**",
    "textPosition": "CENTER"
  }
}

Following the recipe on customizing store icons, replace the default icon used in the search bar and in the cart with the examples below.

New search bar:

<path fill="currentColor" d="M4,13H1c-0.552,0-1-0.448-1-1v0c0-0.552,0.448-1,1-1h3V13z"></path> <path fill="currentColor" d="M15,3H1C0.448,3,0,2.552,0,2v0c0-0.552,0.448-1,1-1h14c0.552,0,1,0.448,1,1v0C16,2.552,15.552,3,15,3z"></path> <path fill="currentColor" d="M4,8H1C0.448,8,0,7.552,0,7v0c0-0.552,0.448-1,1-1h3V8z"></path> <path fill="currentColor" d="M15.707,13.293l-2.274-2.274C13.785,10.424,14,9.74,14,9c0-2.206-1.794-4-4-4S6,6.794,6,9 s1.794,4,4,4c0.74,0,1.424-0.215,2.019-0.567l2.274,2.274L15.707,13.293z M10,11c-1.103,0-2-0.897-2-2s0.897-2,2-2s2,0.897,2,2 S11.103,11,10,11z"></path>

New cart icon:

<path fill="currentColor" d="M15,6h-1.4l-2.7-5.4C10.6,0.1,10-0.1,9.6,0.1C9.1,0.4,8.9,1,9.1,1.4L11.4,6H4.6l2.3-4.6 c0.2-0.5,0-1.1-0.4-1.3C6-0.1,5.4,0.1,5.1,0.6L2.4,6H1c-1.1,0-1.1,1-0.9,1.4l3,8C3.2,15.7,3.6,16,4,16h8c0.4,0,0.8-0.3,0.9-0.6l3-8 C16.1,7,16,6,15,6z"></path>

After completing step 8, the new search bar and cart icon should be rendered on your store page as follows:
