The package contains a Vue component to easily display some tabs.
<div>
<tabs :options="{ useUrlFragment: false }" @clicked="tabClicked" @changed="tabChanged">
<tab name="First tab">
This is the content of the first tab
</tab>
<tab name="Second tab">
This is the content of the second tab
</tab>
<tab name="Disabled tab" :is-disabled="true">
This content will be unavailable while :is-disabled prop set to true
</tab>
<tab id="oh-hi-mark" name="Custom fragment">
The fragment that is appended to the url can be customized
</tab>
<tab prefix="<span class='glyphicon glyphicon-star'></span> "
name="Prefix and suffix"
suffix=" <span class='badge'>4</span>">
A prefix and a suffix can be added
</tab>
</tabs>
</div>When reloading the page the component will automatically display the tab that was previously opened.
The rendered output adheres to the ARIA specification.
You can see a demo here: http://vue-tabs-component.spatie.be
You can install the package via yarn:
yarn add vue-tabs-componentor npm:
npm install vue-tabs-component --saveThe most common use case is to register the component globally.
//in your app.js or similar file
import Vue from 'vue';
import {Tabs, Tab} from 'vue-tabs-component';
Vue.component('tabs', Tabs);
Vue.component('tab', Tab);Alternatively you can do this to register the components:
import Tabs from 'vue-tabs-component';
Vue.use(Tabs);On your page you can now use html like this to render tabs:
<div>
<tabs>
<tab name="First tab">
First tab content
</tab>
<tab name="Second tab">
Second tab content
</tab>
<tab name="Third tab">
Third tab content
</tab>
</tabs>
</div>By default it will show the first tab.
If you click on a tab a href representation of the name will be append to the url. For example clicking on the tab Second tab will append #second-tab to the url.
When loading a page with a fragment that matches the href of a tab, it will open up that tab. For example visiting /#third-tab will open up the tab with name Third tab.
By default the component will remember which was the last open tab for 5 minutes . If you for instance click on Third tab and then visit / the third tab will be opened.
You can change the cache life time by passing the lifetime in minutes in the cache-lifetime property of the tabs component.
<tabs cache-lifetime="10">
...
</tabs>When using with other libraries that use the url fragment, you can disable modifying the url fragment by passing the useUrlFragment options. This helps using it with vue-router, or using vue-tabs-component twice in the same page.
<tabs :options="{ useUrlFragment: false }">
...
</tabs>Tabs has two events to which you can bind: changed and clicked
<tabs @clicked="tabClicked" @changed="tabChanged">
...
</tabs>export default {
...
methods: {
...
tabClicked (selectedTab) {
console.log('Current tab re-clicked:' + selectedTab.tab.name);
},
tabChanged (selectedTab) {
console.log('Tab changed to:' + selectedTab.tab.name);
},
...
}
}changed is emitted when the tab changes and can be used as handle to load data on request.
clicked is emitted when an active tab is re-clicked and can be used to e.g. reload the data in the current tab.
You can add a suffix and a prefix to the tab by using the suffix and prefix attributes.
<tab prefix="my prefix - " name="First tab" suffix=" - my suffix">
First tab content
</tab>The title of the tab will now be my prefix - First tab - my suffix.
The fragment that's added to the url when clicking the tab will only be based on the name of a tab, the name-prefix and name-suffix attributes will be ignored.
When clicking on a tab it's name will be used as a fragment in the url. For example clicking on the Second tab will append #second-tab to the current url.
You can customize that fragment by using the id attribute.
<div>
<tabs>
<tab id="custom-fragment" name="My tab">
First tab content
</tab>
</tabs>
</div>Clicking on My tab will then append #custom-fragment to the url.
When disabling the cache, it can be useful to specify a default tab to load which is not the first one. You can select this by passing the defaultTabHash option.
<tabs :options="{ defaultTabHash: 'second-tab' }">
<tab id="first-tab" name="First tab">
First tab content
</tab>
<tab id="second-tab" name="Default tab">
Second tab content
</tab>
</tabs>You can use the CSS from the docs as a starting point for your own styling. The output HTML has namespaced classes to target all nodes directly.
<div class="tabs-component">
<ul class="tabs-component-tabs">
<li class="tabs-component-tab">
<a class="tabs-component-tab-a">…</a>
