Switch
Install: npm install @mantine/core@9.7.1 @mantine/hooks@9.7.1
Version and compatibility
Pinned Mantine Core 9.7.1 requires React and React DOM ^19.2.0 and matching @mantine/hooks@9.7.1, from the installed npm package's peerDependencies. Do not force it into React 18 or another incompatible version. Explain upgrade impact and agree on a plan with the project owner; do not hide conflicts with --force/--legacy-peer-deps. The native Provider enables theme.respectReducedMotion and uses forceColorScheme for light/dark.
Use case
Toggle a boolean setting.
Native props used by this example
These props are extracted from the local typechecked JSX and grouped by their owning native component. This is not an exhaustive prop list; see pinned source signatures and inheritance below.
| Component prop | Explanation |
|---|---|
Switch.disabled | Disable user input/action; not equivalent to readOnly. |
Switch.label | Visible label or component-specific label content. |
Interaction and state checks
Current scenarios: Default, Disabled. Check actual behavior after selecting supported disabled/error/read-only scenarios; components without those native states do not receive invented universal props. Verify keyboard focus and exits, then connect changed values through the native callback signature.
Business integration boundary
Demo content/state is local, without server persistence, authorization or fetching. A static display component is not a completed business workflow.
Host setup
Install pinned @mantine/core and @mantine/hooks, import @mantine/core/styles.css at the entry and use MantineProvider. The example's theme/variant are JGuang-authored host props, not universal native component APIs; forceColorScheme synchronizes the app theme. Native implementation source is a reading reference: use npm exports rather than copying internal engines. This batch covers Core, not dates/charts/forms extension packages. Detailed upstream prose remains English.
Runnable usage
import { useState } from 'react';
import * as M from '@mantine/core';
import '@mantine/core/styles.css';
function ComponentPreview({ variant = 'Default' }: { variant?: string }) {
const disabled = variant === "Disabled";
return <M.Switch disabled={disabled} label="Dark mode / 深色模式" />;
}
export default function Example({ variant = 'Default', theme = 'light' }: { variant?: string; theme?: 'light' | 'dark' }) {
return <M.MantineProvider forceColorScheme={theme} theme={{ respectReducedMotion: true }}><ComponentPreview variant={variant} /></M.MantineProvider>;
}
Preview states
Default, Disabled
The example uses the native Mantine API. For supported input demos, change the local variant to Disabled, Invalid or Read only; these are example labels, not new component props. Keep the documented data, controlled values, stores and compound children when adapting the example.
Usage
Controlled
import { useState } from 'react';
import { Switch } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
const [checked, setChecked] = useState(false);
return (
<Switch
checked={checked}
onChange={(event) => setChecked(event.currentTarget.checked)}
/>
);
}
Uncontrolled
Switch can be used with uncontrolled forms the same way as a native input[type="checkbox"].
Set the name attribute to include switch value in FormData object on form submission.
To control the initial checked state in uncontrolled forms, use defaultChecked prop.
Example usage of uncontrolled Switch with FormData:
import { Switch } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
return (
<form
onSubmit={(event) => {
event.preventDefault();
const formData = new FormData(event.currentTarget);
console.log('Switch value:', !!formData.get('notifications'));
}}
>
<Switch label="Enable notifications" name="notifications" defaultChecked />
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
);
}
States
Inner Labels
Icon labels
Thumb icon
With tooltip
Set refProp="rootRef" on Tooltip and other similar components to make them work with Switch:
Pointer cursor
By default, the switch input and label have cursor: default (same as native input[type="checkbox"]).
To change the cursor to pointer, set cursorType on the theme:
import { createTheme, MantineProvider, Switch } from '@mantine/core';
const theme = createTheme({
cursorType: 'pointer',
});
function Demo() {
return (
<MantineProvider theme={theme}>
<Switch label="Pointer cursor" />
</MantineProvider>
);
}
Switch.Group
Switch.Group with uncontrolled forms
Switch.Group can be used with uncontrolled forms, it renders a hidden input
which joins all checked values into a single string using hiddenInputValuesSeparator prop.
Props for usage with uncontrolled forms:
name– name attribute passed to the hidden inputhiddenInputValuesSeparator– string used to join checked values into a single string,','by defaulthiddenInputProps– additional props passed to the hidden input
export function UncontrolledForm() {
return (
<form
onSubmit={(event) => {
event.preventDefault();
const formData = new FormData(event.currentTarget);
console.log('Switch group value:', formData.get('frameworks'));
}}
>
<Switch.Group label="Frameworks" name="frameworks" hiddenInputValuesSeparator="|">
<Switch label="React" value="react" />
<Switch label="Angular" value="ng" />
</Switch.Group>
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
);
}
maxSelectedValues
Use maxSelectedValues prop to limit the number of selected values in Switch.Group.
When the limit is reached, the remaining switches are disabled and cannot be selected.
Switch.Group disabled
Controlled Switch.Group
import { useState } from 'react';
import { Switch } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
const [value, setValue] = useState<string[]>([]);
return (
<Switch.Group value={value} onChange={setValue}>
<Switch value="react" label="React" />
<Switch value="svelte" label="Svelte" />
</Switch.Group>
);
}
Change styles based on checked state
Get input ref
import { useRef } from 'react';
import { Switch } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
const ref = useRef<HTMLInputElement>(null);
return <Switch ref={ref} />;
}
Accessibility
Switch is a regular input[type="checkbox"]. Set aria-label if the Switch is used without the label prop:
import { Switch } from '@mantine/core';
// -> not ok, input is not labeled
function Bad() {
return <Switch />;
}
// -> ok, input has aria-label
function Good() {
return <Switch aria-label="I agree to everything" />;
}
// -> ok, input has associated label
function AlsoGood() {
return <Switch label="I agree to everything" />;
}
Source-backed parameter reference
Implementation signatures and types are generated from the pinned local source. Optional props, native inherited types, union branches and never exclusions are preserved. A forwardRef implementation's ref is a React reference, not an additional business prop.
