ActiveLink: add support for aria-current attribute #902
Description
Enhancement
ActiveLink would benefit from adding support for the aria-current attribute. This could be achieved by adding an ariaCurrent property and setting it when the link is active.
export interface ActiveLinkProperties extends LinkProperties {
activeClasses: SupportedClassName[];
ariaCurrent?: 'page' | 'step' | 'location' | 'date' | 'time' | true;
isExact?: boolean;
}Code
<ActiveLink
to="myRoute"
classes="link"
activeClasses="active"
ariaCurrent="page"
>
Link to my route
</ActiveLink>Expected behavior:
<a href="myroute" class="link active" aria-current="page">Link to my route</a>

Hi, I’d like to work on issue #902. I plan to add the optional
ariaCurrentproperty toActiveLink, apply it to the rendered link only when the route is active, and add tests for active and inactive states. Is this still wanted, and is there an existing branch or PR I should coordinate with?
