vue-thin-modal provides thin but powerful modal component. Its styles, transitions and contents are fully customizable.

Installation

$ npm install --save vue-thin-modal
# or
$ yarn add vue-thin-modal

Usage

  1. Import VueThinModal and install it in Vue constructor.
import Vue from 'vue'
import VueThinModal from 'vue-thin-modal'

Vue.use(VueThinModal)

new Vue({
  // ...
})
  1. (Optional) Import base CSS file for the modal wherever you want or you can define your own styles.
import 'vue-thin-modal/dist/vue-thin-modal.css'
  1. Use <modal> component in your apps. You can see this.$modal in your components
<template>
  <div>
    <button type="button" @click="open">Open Modal</button>
    <modal name="example">
      <div class="basic-modal">
        <h1 class="title">Modal Title</h1>
        <button class="button" type="button" @click="close">Close Modal</button>
      </div>
    </modal>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  methods: {
    open () {
      this.$modal.push('example')
    },

    close () {
      this.$modal.pop()
    }
  }
}
</script>

Auto installing vue-thin-modal

If you have Vue constructor on window, you don't need to call Vue.use(VueThinModal) since it will be called automatically. This is the case when you load Vue.js and vue-thin-modal via <script> element.

Manually mount portal

By default, the modal content will be automatically sent just under the <body> element by <modal-portal> component. You can disable this behavior by setting autoMountPortal: false option.

import Vue from 'vue'
import VueThinModal from 'vue-thin-modal'

Vue.use(VueThinModal, {
  autoMountPortal: false
})

In that case, you have to put <modal-portal> by yourself.

<template>
  <div id="app">
    <!-- Application body goes here -->

    <modal-portal />
  </div>
</template>

This is useful when you want to inject some plugin instances from the root Vue instance because the auto-mounted portal will not belong to the user defined root Vue instance. For example, you need to put the portal manually when you use vue-i18n plugin.

import Vue from 'vue'
import VueI18n from 'vue-i18n'
import VueThinModal from 'vue-thin-modal'

Vue.use(VueThinModal, {
  autoMountPortal: false
})

Vue.use(VueI18n)

// Create VueI18n instance with options
const i18n = new VueI18n({
  // vue-i18n options
})


new Vue({
  el: '#app',

  // Since you need to inject i18n instance here,
  // you should put <modal-portal> by yourself.
  i18n,

  // ... remaining options ...
})
