4 mins read

This guide demonstrates how to bind a Command to the content of an AccordionItem in .NET MAUI Accordion.

C#
The ItemInfoRepository class contains a command that will be bound in the XAML.

public class ItemInfoRepository
{
    public Command<object> ShowDetailsCommand { get; set; }

    public ItemInfoRepository()
    {
        ShowDetailsCommand = new Command<object>(OnShowDetailClicked);            
    }

    private void OnShowDetailClicked(object obj)
    {
        var item = obj as ItemInfo;
        App.Current!.MainPage!.DisplayAlert(item!.Name, item.Description, "Ok");
    }
}

XAML

Bind the ViewModel Command to the ImageButton that is loaded inside the Content of the AccordionItem.

<ContentPage xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2021/maui"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
             xmlns:accordion="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Accordion;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Expander"
             xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Accordion"
             x:Class="Accordion.MainPage">
    
    <ContentPage.BindingContext>
        <local:ItemInfoRepository x:Name="viewModel"/>
    </ContentPage.BindingContext>

    <accordion:SfAccordion x:Name="accordion" BindableLayout.ItemsSource="{Binding Info}" ExpandMode="SingleOrNone">
        <BindableLayout.ItemTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <accordion:AccordionItem>
                    <accordion:AccordionItem.Header>
                        <Grid Padding="5,0,0,0" HeightRequest="50">
                            <Label Text="{Binding Name}" FontSize="20" />
                        </Grid>
                    </accordion:AccordionItem.Header>
                    <accordion:AccordionItem.Content>
                        <Grid BackgroundColor="#C0C0C0" Padding="5,0,0,0">
                            <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                                <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
                                <ColumnDefinition Width="45" />
                            </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                            <Label Text="{Binding Description}" VerticalOptions="Center"/>
                            <Grid Grid.Column="1" Padding="10" BackgroundColor="#C0C0C0">
                                <ImageButton BackgroundColor="{OnPlatform WinUI=#C0C0C0}" HeightRequest="30" WidthRequest="30" Source="Details.png" Command="{Binding Path=BindingContext.ShowDetailsCommand, Source={x:Reference accordion}}" CommandParameter="{Binding .}"/>
                            </Grid>
                        </Grid>
                    </accordion:AccordionItem.Content>
                </accordion:AccordionItem>
            </DataTemplate>
        </BindableLayout.ItemTemplate>
    </accordion:SfAccordion>
