A Vue component to easily render tabs
The package contains a Vue 3 component to easily display some tabs.
This is how they can be used:
<div>
<tabs :options="{ useUrlFragment: false, defaultTabHash: 'second-tab' }"
:cache-lifetime="5"
nav-class="tabs-component-tabs"
nav-item-active-class="is-active"
nav-item-class="tabs-component-tab"
nav-item-disabled-class="is-disabled"
nav-item-link-active-class="is-active"
nav-item-link-class="tabs-component-tab-a"
nav-item-link-disabled-class="is-disabled"
panels-wrapper-class="tabs-component-panels"
wrapper-class="tabs-component"
@changed="tabChanged"
@clicked="tabClicked"
>
<tab id="First-tab"
name="First-tab"
>
This is the content of the first tab
</tab>
<tab id="Second-tab"
name="First-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="this-text-differs"
name="Custom fragment"
>
The fragment that is appended to the url can be customized
</tab>
<tab name="Scroll window"
:link="true"
>
When you press this tab, the screen scrolls towards the content of the tab.
</tab>
<tab name="Hidden tab"
:is-hidden="true"
>
This tab is not visible, but can be if you set is-hidden to false.
</tab>
<tab panel-class="tabs-component-panel"
prefix="<svg height='20' width='20' viewBox='0 0 128 128' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'><g><path d='m57.362 26.54-37.262 64.535a7.666 7.666 0 0 0 6.639 11.5h74.518a7.666 7.666 0 0 0 6.639-11.5l-37.258-64.535a7.665 7.665 0 0 0 -13.276 0z' fill='#ffb400'/><g fill='#fcf4d9'><rect height='29.377' rx='4.333' width='9.638' x='59.181' y='46.444'/><circle cx='64' cy='87.428' r='4.819'/></g></g></svg> "
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.
Installation
You can install the package via yarn:
yarn add @jbtje/vue3tabsor npm:
npm install @jbtje/vue3tabs --saveUsage
The most common use case is to register the components globally:
import {createApp} from 'vue'
import {Tabs, Tab} from '@jbtje/vue3tabs';
createApp( App )
.component( 'tabs', Tabs )
.component( 'tab', Tab )
.mount( '#app' )Alternatively you can do this to register the components:
import Vue from 'vue';
import {Tabs, Tab} from '@jbtje/vue3tabs';
Vue.component( 'tabs', Tabs );
Vue.component( 'tab', Tab );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.
Remembering the last opened 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 lifetime by passing the lifetime in minutes in the cache-lifetime property of the tabs
component.
<tabs :cache-lifetime="10">
...
</tabs>Auto scrolling the container content
When you press a different tab, the container scrollWindow will be scrolled to the top. This only works if you add
overflow to tabs-component-panels.
.tabs-component-panels {
...
overflow: auto;
}Anchor Link
If you set link to true, the id of the tab will be the same as the hash in the url. Thus creating an Anchor link.
This causes your browser to automatically line up with the top of the content of the tab.
By default, link is set to false, to prevent the screen from jumping on pressing a tab. The tab id is prefixed with tab-.
Disable modifying the url fragment
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 vue3-tabs-component twice in the same page.
<tabs :options="{ useUrlFragment: false }">
...
</tabs>Callbacks
Tabs have two events to which you can bind: changed and clicked
<tabs @clicked="tabClicked"
@changed="tabChanged"
>
...
</tabs>For example:
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.
Adding a suffix and a prefix to the tab name
You can add a suffix and a prefix to the tab by using the suffix and prefix attributes, which can contain HTML.
<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.
Customizing fragments
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.
Note:
Setting a default tab
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>CSS
Each node can be styled by specifying classes.
The output HTML classes can be overridden by using the following Tabs component attributes:
wrapper-classpanels-wrapper-classnav-classnav-item-classnav-item-active-classnav-item-disabled-classnav-item-link-classnav-item-link-active-classnav-item-link-disabled-class
The Tab content (section) class can be overridden with the panel-class attribute
If no custom classes are set, the following classes are used as default:
<div class="tabs-component"
id="tabs-panels"
> // wrapper-class
<ul class="tabs-component-tabs"> // nav-class
<li class="tabs-component-tab is-disabled"> // nav-item-class + nav-item-disabled-class
<a class="tabs-component-tab-a is-disabled">…</a> // nav-item-link-class + nav-item-link-disabled-class
</li>
<li class="tabs-component-tab is-active"> // nav-item-class + nav-item-active-class
<a class="tabs-component-tab-a is-active">…</a> // nav-item-link-class + nav-item-link-active-class
</li>
</ul>
<div class="tabs-component-panels"
ref="scrollWindow"
> // panels-wrapper-class
<section class="tabs-component-panel"> // Tab > panel-class
…
</section>
</div>
</div>Example: style.css
