I'm making a custom smartdashboard widget and wanted to use the sendable chooser class. So far it seems like that code is only available in the robot library. Is there any way I can use that class or something similar in a widget.

The code for the sendable chooser widget is in the SmartDashboard source, in the Chooser class.

The code for the sendable chooser widget is in the SmartDashboard source, in the Chooser class.

I'm having trouble finding information on how to use this chooser. Is there a javadoc somewhere?

Check out this web page. It has an example of using a SendableChooser for selecting one of many Autonomous programs. Of course you can use it for any purpose in the same way.
