Mock Data configuration by using defaultOptions configuration

Access from https://localhost:4321/temp/workbench.html Configuration:

PropertyPaneTaxonomyPicker("Language", {
  key: "Language_Field",
  name: "Language",
  displayName: "Language",
  multi: true,
  defaultOptions: [
    { label: "English", value: "f50249b6-310d-43b6-aaa6-f0cb46d851bf" },
    { label: "Spanish", value: "237ca323-1ed8-4199-a49b-a9f7ce4256bf" },
    { label: "German", value: "44024c7e-f738-4755-90e1-15866327c806" },
    { label: "Italian", value: "65f67491-bdca-491a-84fa-f6fd913f40fa" },
  ],
  onPickerChange: this._updateTaxonomyPicker
})

Real Data configuration by using termSetGuid configuration

Access from https://your-domain.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/workbench.aspx Configuration:

PropertyPaneTaxonomyPicker("Language", {
  key: "Language_Field",
  name: "Language",
  displayName: "Language",
  multi: true,
  termSetGuid: "<your-term-set-id>",
  termSetName: "Language",
  termSetCountMaxSwapToAsync: 100,
  onPickerChange: this._updateTaxonomyPicker
})

Features

• Use React for using react-taxonomypicker control inside a custom property pane (it can be used in the web part itself too).
• Use TypeScript to create the custom property pane control containing the taxonomy picker control.
• Reacting to web part property changes
• Loading data for use in custom property pane controls asynchronously without blocking the web part
• Retrieve Terms from a Term Set by Term Set GUID.
• Sync / Async modes
  • Sync mode is used for medium / small Term Sets and loads asynchronously all Terms and store them in React State and SessionStorage cache.
  • Async mode is used for large Term Sets and it doesn't load any data initially, but it loads the Terms upon user input in batches of 10 items.
  • Sync / Async mode configurable via termSetCountMaxSwapToAsync property
    • The control will fetch the number of terms and decide which mode to use depends on termSetCountMaxSwapToAsync value.
• It Uses and depends on SP.Taxonomy.js (the web part uses a wrapper to load all the SP.*.js dependencies)
• Use Promise (polyfill it if needed IE)
• onPickerChange event handler exposed
• react-select properties exposed (extends them)
• defaultOptions array exposed to enable input mock data when no termSetGuid configured
• More configuration options: react-taxonomypicker

Scenarios supported

• SharePoint Web Part using Script Editor or Content Editor Web Part
  • Consume it from ES6 project
  • Consume it from TypeScript project
• SharePoint Framework Web Part (SPFx)
