Reflect Overrides

We built overrides as a way of customizing individual components at runtime. This can be useful for dynamically altering a component based on it's current environment.

Overrides use JSONPath to manipulate your view's configuration. The documentation on JSONPath's syntax can be found here.

Here's an example of supplying Reflect.js with overrides. Specifically, we're setting the dimensions of a component with id #1.

var ui = new ReflectUI(token),
    overrides = [
      {
        path: '$.components..[?(@.id == 1)].dimensions',
        value: ['dim1', dim2]
      }
    ];

ui.withOverrides(overrides);
ui.view(...)
