What is the current behavior?
ARIA attributes specified on the host element are not reflected to the cloned element in the light DOM. For example, with
ion-buttonwe create abuttonand clone it into the light DOM so that screen readers can correctly interact with the element. Currently, we are only supportingaria-labelto be reflected to the HTMLbutton.Issue URL: Enterprise FW-1138, Enterprise FW-1071, #20127
What is the new behavior?
All WAI-ARIA attributes, as listed here are reflected to the following components:
ion-buttonion-back-buttonion-breadcrumbion-headerion-inpution-textareaion-menuion-menu-buttonDoes this introduce a breaking change?
Other information
I opted for a manually managed list of aria attributes over regular expression matching, after taking into consideration the execution cost of regex for each web component instance + the number of attributes/properties on an element.
This approach should be easily applicable to other open issues, to add support for aria attributes.
