Overview

This skill provides guidance for writing CSP-compatible Alpine.js components in Hyvä themes. Alpine CSP is a specialized Alpine.js build that operates without the unsafe-eval CSP directive, which is required for PCI-DSS 4.0 compliance on payment-related pages (mandatory from April 1, 2025).

Key principle: CSP-compatible code functions in both standard and Alpine CSP builds. Write all Alpine code using CSP patterns for future-proofing.

CSP Constraints Summary

| Capability | Standard Alpine | Alpine CSP | |------------|-----------------|------------| | Property reads | x-show="open" | Same | | Negation | x-show="!open" | Method: x-show="isNotOpen" | | Mutations | @click="open = false" | Method: @click="close" | | Method args | @click="setTab('info')" | Dataset: @click="setTab" data-tab="info" | | x-model | Available | Not supported - use :value + @input | | Range iteration | x-for="i in 10" | Not supported |

Component Structure Pattern

Every Alpine component in Hyvä follows this structure:

<div x-data="initComponentName">
    <!-- Template content -->
</div>
<script>
    function initComponentName() {
        return {
            // Properties
            propertyName: initialValue,

            // Lifecycle
            init() {
                // Called when component initializes
            },

            // Methods for state access
            isPropertyTrue() {
                return this.propertyName === true;
            },

            // Methods for mutations
            setPropertyValue() {
                this.propertyName = this.$event.target.value;
            }
        }
    }
    window.addEventListener('alpine:init', () => Alpine.data('initComponentName', initComponentName), {once: true})
</script>
<?php $hyvaCsp->registerInlineScript() ?>

Critical requirements:

1. Register constructor with Alpine.data() inside alpine:init event listener
2. Use {once: true} to prevent duplicate registrations
3. Call $hyvaCsp->registerInlineScript() after every <script> block
4. Use $escaper->escapeJs() for PHP values in JavaScript strings
5. Use $escaper->escapeHtmlAttr() for data attributes (not escapeJs)

Constructor Functions

Basic Registration

function initMyComponent() {
    return {
        open: false
    }
}
window.addEventListener('alpine:init', () => Alpine.data('initMyComponent', initMyComponent), {once: true})

Why named global functions? Constructor functions are declared as named functions in global scope (not inlined in the Alpine.data() callback) so they can be proxied and extended in other templates. This is an extensibility feature of Hyvä Themes - other modules or child themes can wrap or override these functions before they are registered with Alpine.

Composing Multiple Objects

When combining objects (e.g., with hyva.modal), use spread syntax inside the constructor:

function initMyModal() {
    return {
        ...hyva.modal.call(this),
        ...hyva.formValidation(this.$el),
        customProperty: '',
        customMethod() {
            // Custom logic
        }
    };
}

Use .call(this) to pass Alpine context to composed functions.

Property Access Patterns

Value Properties with Dot Notation

return {
    item: {
        is_visible: true,
        title: 'Product'
    }
}

<span x-show="item.is_visible" x-text="item.title"></span>

Transforming Values (Negation, Conditions)

CSP does not allow inline transformations. Create methods instead:

Wrong (CSP incompatible):

<span x-show="!item.deleted"></span>
<span x-text="item.title || item.value"></span>

Correct:

<span x-show="isItemNotDeleted"></span>
<span x-text="itemLabel"></span>

return {
    item: { deleted: false, title: '', value: '' },

    isItemNotDeleted() {
        return !this.item.deleted;
    },
    itemLabel() {
        return this.item.title || this.item.value;
    }
}

Negation Method Shorthand

For simple boolean negation, use bracket notation:

return {
    deleted: false,
    ['!deleted']() {
        return !this.deleted;
    }
}

<template x-if="!deleted">
    <div>The item is present</div>
</template>

Property Mutation Patterns

Extract Mutations to Methods

Wrong (CSP incompatible):

<button @click="open = !open">Toggle</button>

Correct:

<button @click="toggle">Toggle</button>

return {
    open: false,
    toggle() {
        this.open = !this.open;
    }
}

Passing Arguments via Dataset

Wrong (CSP incompatible):

<button @click="selectItem(123)">Select</button>

Correct:

<button @click="selectItem" data-item-id="<?= $escaper->escapeHtmlAttr($itemId) ?>">Select</button>

return {
    selected: null,
    selectItem() {
        this.selected = this.$el.dataset.itemId;
    }
}

Important: Use escapeHtmlAttr for data attributes, not escapeJs.

Accessing Event and Loop Variables in Methods

Methods can access Alpine's special properties:

return {
    onInput() {
        // Access event
        const value = this.$event.target.value;
        this.inputValue = value;
    },
    getItemUrl() {
        // Access x-for loop variable
        return `${BASE_URL}/product/id/${this.item.id}`;
    }
}

x-model Alternatives

x-model is not available in Alpine CSP. Use two-way binding patterns instead.

Text Inputs

<input type="text"
       :value="username"
       @input="setUsername">

return {
    username: '',
    setUsername() {
        this.username = this.$event.target.value;
    }
}

Number Inputs

Use hyva.safeParseNumber() for numeric values:

return {
    quantity: 1,
    setQuantity() {
        this.quantity = hyva.safeParseNumber(this.$event.target.value);
    }
}

Textarea

<textarea @input="setComment" x-text="comment"></textarea>

return {
    comment: '',
    setComment() {
        this.comment = this.$event.target.value;
    }
}

Checkboxes

<input type="checkbox"
       :checked="isSubscribed"
       @change="toggleSubscribed">

return {
    isSubscribed: false,
    toggleSubscribed() {
        this.isSubscribed = this.$event.target.checked;
    }
}

Checkbox Arrays

<template x-for="option in options" :key="option.id">
    <input type="checkbox"
           :value="option.id"
           :checked="isOptionSelected"
           @change="toggleOption"
           :data-option-id="option.id">
</template>

return {
    selectedOptions: [],
    isOptionSelected() {
        return this.selectedOptions.includes(this.option.id);
    },
    toggleOption() {
        const optionId = this.$el.dataset.optionId;
        const index = this.selectedOptions.indexOf(optionId);
        if (index === -1) {
            this.selectedOptions.push(optionId);
        } else {
            this.selectedOptions.splice(index, 1);
        }
    }
}

Select Elements

<select @change="setCountry">
    <template x-for="country in countries" :key="country.code">
        <option :value="country.code"
                :selected="isCountrySelected"
                x-text="country.name"></option>
    </template>
</select>

return {
    selectedCountry: '',
    isCountrySelected() {
        return this.selectedCountry === this.country.code;
    },
    setCountry() {
        this.selectedCountry = this.$event.target.value;
    }
}

x-for Patterns

Basic Iteration

<template x-for="(product, index) in products" :key="index">
    <div x-text="product.name"></div>
</template>

Using Methods in Loops

Loop variables (product, index) are accessible in methods:

<template x-for="(product, index) in products" :key="index">
    <span :class="getItemClasses" @click="goToProduct" x-text="product.name"></span>
</template>

return {
    products: [],
    getItemClasses() {
        return {
            'font-bold': this.index === 0,
            'text-gray-500': this.product.disabled
        };
    },
    goToProduct() {
        window.location.href = `${BASE_URL}/product/${this.product.url_key}`;
    }
}

Function as Value Provider

The value provider can be a method (called without parentheses):

<template x-for="(item, index) in getFilteredItems" :key="index">
    <div x-text="item.name"></div>
</template>

return {
    items: [],
    filter: '',
    getFilteredItems() {
        return this.items.filter(item => item.name.includes(this.filter));
    }
}

Note: Range iteration (x-for="i in 10") is not supported in Alpine CSP.

Hyva Utility Functions

The global hyva object provides these utilities:

Form and Security

• hyva.getFormKey() - Get/generate form key for POST requests
• hyva.getUenc() - Base64 encode current URL for redirects
• hyva.postForm({action, data, skipUenc}) - Submit a POST form programmatically

Cookies

• hyva.getCookie(name) - Get cookie value (respects consent)
• hyva.setCookie(name, value, days, skipSetDomain) - Set cookie
• hyva.setSessionCookie(name, value, skipSetDomain) - Set session cookie

Formatting

• hyva.formatPrice(value, showSign, options) - Format currency
• hyva.str(template, ...args) - String interpolation with %1, %2 placeholders
• hyva.strf(template, ...args) - Zero-based string interpolation (%0, %1)

Numbers

• hyva.safeParseNumber(rawValue) - Parse number safely (for x-model.number replacement)

DOM

• hyva.replaceDomElement(selector, content) - Replace DOM element with HTML content
• hyva.trapFocus(rootElement) - Trap focus within element (for modals)
• hyva.releaseFocus(rootElement) - Release focus trap

Storage

• hyva.getBrowserStorage() - Get localStorage/sessionStorage safely

Boolean Object Helper

For toggle components, use hyva.createBooleanObject:

function initToggle() {
    return {
        ...hyva.createBooleanObject('open', false),
        // Additional methods
    };
}

This generates: open(), notOpen(), toggleOpen(), setOpenTrue(), setOpenFalse()

Alpine Initialization

hyva.alpineInitialized(fn)  // Run callback after Alpine initializes

Event Patterns

Listening to Custom Events

<div x-data="initMyComponent"
     @private-content-loaded.window="onPrivateContentLoaded"
     @update-gallery.window="onGalleryUpdate">

return {
    onPrivateContentLoaded() {
        const data = this.$event.detail.data;
        // Handle customer data
    },
    onGalleryUpdate() {
        const images = this.$event.detail;
        this.images = images;
    }
}

Dispatching Events

return {
    updateQuantity() {
        this.qty = newValue;
        this.$dispatch('update-qty-' + this.productId, this.qty);
    }
}

Common Hyvä Events

• private-content-loaded - Customer section data loaded
• reload-customer-section-data - Request customer data refresh
• update-gallery - Product gallery images changed
• reset-gallery - Reset gallery to initial state

Event Listeners Object Pattern

For multiple window/document event listeners, use the x-bind pattern:

<div x-data="initGallery" x-bind="eventListeners">

return {
    eventListeners: {
        ['@keydown.window.escape']() {
            if (!this.fullscreen) return;
            this.closeFullScreen();
        },
        ['@update-gallery.window'](event) {
            this.receiveImages(event.detail);
        },
        ['@keyup.arrow-right.window']() {
            if (!this.fullscreen) return;
            this.nextItem();
        }
    }
}

Dynamic Classes Pattern

Return class objects from methods:

<div :class="containerClasses">

return {
    fullscreen: false,
    containerClasses() {
        return {
            'w-full h-full fixed top-0 left-0 bg-white z-50': this.fullscreen,
            'relative': !this.fullscreen
        };
    }
}

Passing PHP Data to Components

Via Data Attributes

<div x-data="initProductList"
     data-products="<?= $escaper->escapeHtmlAttr(json_encode($products)) ?>"
     data-config="<?= $escaper->escapeHtmlAttr(json_encode($config)) ?>">

return {
    products: [],
    config: {},
    init() {
        this.products = JSON.parse(this.$root.dataset.products || '[]');
        this.config = JSON.parse(this.$root.dataset.config || '{}');
    }
}

Via Inline JavaScript (with escaping)

function initComponent() {
    return {
        productId: '<?= (int) $product->getId() ?>',
        productName: '<?= $escaper->escapeJs($product->getName()) ?>',
        config: <?= /* @noEscape */ json_encode($config) ?>
    }
}

Complete Example: Quantity Selector

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

use Hyva\Theme\ViewModel\HyvaCsp;
use Magento\Framework\Escaper;

/** @var Escaper $escaper */
/** @var HyvaCsp $hyvaCsp */

$productId = (int) $product->getId();
$minQty = 1;
$maxQty = 100;
$defaultQty = 1;
?>
<div x-data="initQtySelector">
    <label for="qty-<?= $productId ?>" class="sr-only">
        <?= $escaper->escapeHtml(__('Quantity')) ?>
    </label>
    <div class="flex items-center">
        <button type="button"
                class="btn"
                @click="decrement"
                :disabled="isMinQty"
                :class="decrementClasses">
            -
        </button>
        <input type="number"
               id="qty-<?= $productId ?>"
               name="qty"
               :value="qty"
               @input="onInput"

        <button type="button"
                class="btn"

            +
        </button>
    </div>
</div>
<script>
    function initQtySelector() {
        return {
            qty: <?= (int) $defaultQty ?>,
            minQty: <?= (int) $minQty ?>,
            maxQty: <?= (int) $maxQty ?>,
            productId: '<?= $productId ?>',

            onInput() {
                let value = hyva.safeParseNumber(this.$event.target.value);
                if (value < this.minQty) value = this.minQty;
                if (value > this.maxQty) value = this.maxQty;
                this.qty = value;
                this.$dispatch('update-qty-' + this.productId, this.qty);
            },

            increment() {
                if (this.qty < this.maxQty) {
                    this.qty++;
                    this.$dispatch('update-qty-' + this.productId, this.qty);

                    this.$dispatch('update-qty-' + this.productId, this.qty);
                }
            },

            isMinQty() {
