Coveo for Sitecore 4.1 (November 2018)

CoveoFacet.ascx is a sublayout file that represents a facet component. Its default location is c:\inetpub\wwwroot\SitecoreInstanceName\Website\layouts\Coveo\CoveoFacet.ascx.

Digging into Its Code

  • There’s a single div element with a class attribute equal to CoveoFacet, which is automatically rendered as a Facet component.
  • A set of options are passed as custom attributes to the component, such as data-title='<%= Model.Title %>':
    • These options customize the behavior as well as the look and feel of the component.
    • Model refers to a property of the user control, which wraps the different properties associated with the facet.
<%@ Control Language="c#" AutoEventWireup="true" Inherits="Coveo.UI.CoveoFacet" TargetSchema="http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="coveoui" Namespace="Coveo.UI.Controls" Assembly="Coveo.UIBase" %>

<%-- When customizing this component, ensure to use "Coveo.$" instead of the regular jQuery "$" to
     avoid any conflicts with Sitecore's Page Editor/Experience Editor. --%>
