Progress

Show determinate completion with a native progress element.

Import from hedron import Progress
Distribution hedron
Backend activity No
Normal render mode RenderMode.FRAGMENT

Live demo

68%68%

The preview is a local docs simulation (not a running Hedron server). Interactive demos show a “Simulated HTMX” trace when applicable.

Basic use

from hedron import Progress

component = Progress(68, maximum=100, label='Import progress')

Compose under Page for full documents, or return from a fragment route for HTMX swaps.

How it works

The browser calculates completion from value and maximum and exposes native progress semantics. Render a separate numeric Text value when precise percentage matters visually.

This component's core behavior is server-rendered HTML and does not require a browser runtime. The preview is ordinary semantic HTML, so keyboard, form, link, and disclosure behavior comes from the platform.

Constructor and parameters

Progress(value, *, maximum=100, label=None)
Parameter Type Meaning
value float Current progress.
maximum float Completion value.
label str | None Accessible name.

Composition and backend behavior

Keep Progress at the smallest semantic boundary. Fragment routes should return only the replaced region and preserve stable target IDs across success, validation, empty, loading, and error responses.

This component is primarily presentational; keep any mutation on an explicit action or component route.

Accessibility

Always provide a label unless nearby labelled context names the progress element.

Security

Escaping and SafeUrl / TrustedHtml are framework concerns; authorization and data exposure remain application code. Redact secrets before rendering.

Common mistakes

  • Use Loading or Status for indeterminate work; do not fake determinate values.
  • Do not copy docs-preview JavaScript into an application server.

Testing

from hedron import RenderMode, render

result = render(component, mode=RenderMode.FRAGMENT)
assert result.html
assert not result.diagnostics
