import {MDCTopAppBar} from '@material/top-app-bar/index';

const topAppBarElement = document.querySelector('.mdc-top-app-bar');
const topAppBar = new MDCTopAppBar(topAppBarElement);

See Importing the JS component for more information on how to import JavaScript.

Variants

Top App Bar With Action Items

Top app bars can contain action items which are placed on the side opposite the navigation icon.

<header class="mdc-top-app-bar">
  <div class="mdc-top-app-bar__row">
    <section class="mdc-top-app-bar__section mdc-top-app-bar__section--align-start">
      <a href="#" class="material-icons mdc-top-app-bar__navigation-icon">menu</a>
      <span class="mdc-top-app-bar__title">Title</span>
    </section>
    <section class="mdc-top-app-bar__section mdc-top-app-bar__section--align-end" role="toolbar">
      <a href="#" class="material-icons mdc-top-app-bar__action-item" aria-label="Download" alt="Download">file_download</a>
      <a href="#" class="material-icons mdc-top-app-bar__action-item" aria-label="Print this page" alt="Print this page">print</a>
      <a href="#" class="material-icons mdc-top-app-bar__action-item" aria-label="Bookmark this page" alt="Bookmark this page">bookmark</a>
    </section>
  </div>
</header>

Short

Short top app bars are top app bars that can collapse to the navigation icon side when scrolled.

<header class="mdc-top-app-bar mdc-top-app-bar--short">
  <div class="mdc-top-app-bar__row">
    <section class="mdc-top-app-bar__section mdc-top-app-bar__section--align-start">
      <a href="#" class="material-icons mdc-top-app-bar__navigation-icon">menu</a>
      <span class="mdc-top-app-bar__title">Title</span>
    </section>
    <section class="mdc-top-app-bar__section mdc-top-app-bar__section--align-end" role="toolbar">
      <a href="#" class="material-icons mdc-top-app-bar__action-item" aria-label="Bookmark this page" alt="Bookmark this page">bookmark</a>
    </section>
  </div>
</header>

Short top app bars should be used with no more than 1 action item.

Short - Always Closed

Short top app bars can be configured to always appear collapsed by applying the mdc-top-app-bar--short-collapsed before instantiating the component :

<header class="mdc-top-app-bar mdc-top-app-bar--short mdc-top-app-bar--short-collapsed">
  ...
</header>

Fixed

Fixed top app bars stay at the top of the page and elevate above the content when scrolled.

<header class="mdc-top-app-bar mdc-top-app-bar--fixed">
  ...
</header>

Prominent

The prominent top app bar is taller.

<header class="mdc-top-app-bar mdc-top-app-bar--prominent">
  ...
</header>

Dense

The dense top app bar is shorter.

<header class="mdc-top-app-bar mdc-top-app-bar--dense">
  ...
</header>

Usage within Web Frameworks

If you are using a JavaScript framework, such as React or Angular, you can create a Top App Bar for your framework. Depending on your needs, you can use the Simple Approach: Wrapping MDC Web Vanilla Components, or the Advanced Approach: Using Foundations and Adapters. Please follow the instructions here.

MDCTopAppBarAdapter

getViewportScrollY() => number Gets the number of pixels that the content of body is scrolled from the top of the page.
