autofocus

The autofocus input specifies that the button should automatically get focus when the page loads.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Load button with autofocus -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui [autofocus]="true">Load More</bb-load-button-ui>
                                                        
                                                            

 

block

The block input makes the button fill the full width of its container.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Full width load button -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui [block]="true">Load More</bb-load-button-ui>
                                                        
                                                            

 

buttonSize

The buttonSize input sets the size of the button.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Small load button -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui [buttonSize]="'sm'">Load More</bb-load-button-ui>
                                                        
                                                            

 

circle

The circle input renders the button as a circular shape instead of the default oblong shape.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Circular load button -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui [circle]="true">+</bb-load-button-ui>
                                                        
                                                            

 

color

The color input sets the button color theme.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Secondary colored load button -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui [color]="'secondary'">Load More</bb-load-button-ui>
                                                        
                                                            

 

disabled

The disabled input prevents user interaction with the button.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Disabled load button -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui [disabled]="true">Load More</bb-load-button-ui>
                                                        
                                                            

 

from

The from input specifies the starting index for pagination in finite loading scenarios.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Load button with pagination starting from index 20 -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui
                                                            [from]="20"

                                                            [totalCount]="100">Load More
                                                        </bb-load-button-ui>

The id input sets a unique identifier for the button element.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Load button with custom ID -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui [id]="'my-load-button'">Load More</bb-load-button-ui>
                                                        
                                                            

 

isLoading

The isLoading input shows the loading indicator and hides the button content when set to true.


                                                        
                                                        
                                                            <!-- Load button in loading state -->
                                                        <bb-load-button-ui [isLoading]="true">Load More</bb-load-button-ui>

Accessibility

This component is built with accessibility in mind. See the information below for supported behaviors and configuration options to ensure a fully accessible experience for all users.

The Load Button component automatically manages several accessibility features:

  • Loading state announcement: When loading, a visually hidden status message announces the state to screen readers.
  • Content completion: When all content is loaded, an appropriate status message is announced.
  • Proper button semantics: Maintains standard button role and keyboard interaction.
  • Focus management: Preserves focus behavior during loading states.

 

ARIA

These inputs support WAI-ARIA compliance and are intended to improve accessibility for users relying on assistive technologies. Use them to provide meaningful semantic information for the component when additional context is needed to convey its purpose, state, or behavior.
