@morev/vue-swiper (still WIP)

Wrapper under latest Swiper (8.4.2) with extra features working with Vue 2.
SSR / Nuxt friendly.

Most of part API is compatible with original Swiper Vue component, so see the provided link for base docs.

Changes from original Swiper Vue component

• If your environment (such as Nuxt 2 in context of webpack) doesn't support resolution of exports field in package.json, you need to import stylesheets by direct path.
  Original Swiper module places files in package root, this package re-exports it in dist folder. So:

  // Original package direct imports
  import '~swiper/swiper.min.css'
  import '~swiper/modules/pagination/pagination.min.css'
  
  // This package handles it another way
  import '~@morev/vue-swiper/dist/swiper.min.css'
  import '~@morev/vue-swiper/dist/modules/pagination/pagination.min.css'

  If your environment can resolve exports field in package.json there is no changes, just change the package name from swiper to @morev/vue-swiper.

• There is no typings (WIP)

Extra features

Unfortunately, I currently have no time to do proper documentation, playground and even tests, so here is just short info about extra features:

• prop lazyInit - boolean
  Allows to initialize Swiper only when it becomes visible (utilizing IntersectionObserver under the hood)

• prop disabled - boolean
  Allows to render the default <slot></slot> content without swiper layout.
  Just an wrapper called swiper-root and slot content inside.
  This is suitable, for example, for blocks that have a grid layout on the desktop and turn into a slider on mobile devices.

  In this case you don't need to wrap each element in <swiper-slide> component - plugin will do it for you.

• prop emitStyle - string (camelCase (default) or kebab-case)
  Allows to customize emits style. By default Swiper utilizes @camelCasedEvents, but if you prefer (like me) @kebab-cased-events you can set this prop to kebab-case. Just a stylistic thing.

  In Vue 3 there is no difference between @onEvent and @on-event, but Vue 2 handles them different.

• prop bemBlock - string
  If you prefer (like me) to use BEM methodology, plugin can set BEM classes to Swiper elements alongside the Swiper classes (.swiper, .swiper-wrapper, etc).
  So, if bem-block="foo" is passed, then you can access swiper elements like .foo__swiper-wrapper, .foo__swiper-slide, etc.

• prop navigationWrap - boolean
  Allows to wrap automatically created elements .swiper-button-prev and .swiper-button-next to common container .swiper-navigation.
  That's can be useful for custom styling.

• prop navigationOutside - boolean
  Allows to render automatically created Navigation outside of .swiper element (which has overflow: hidden by design).

• prop paginationWrap - boolean
  Wraps automatically created .swiper-pagination to extra wrapper .swiper-pagination-wrapper.
  That's can be useful for custom styling.

• prop paginationOutside
  Allows to render automatically created Pagination outside of .swiper element (which has overflow: hidden by design).

• prop scrollbarWrap - boolean
  Wraps automatically created .swiper-scrollbar to extra wrapper .swiper-scrollbar-wrapper.
  That's can be useful for custom styling.

• prop scrollbarOutside
  Allows to render automatically created Scrollbar outside of .swiper element (which has overflow: hidden by design).

• props rootTag and rootClass
  Because of navigationOutside, paginationOutside and scrollbarOutside all swiper markup should be wrapped with extra node.
  Those props allows to customize tagName and className of this element.

• Slides have the not-initialized class before swiper is initialized.
  It allows to style them properly before initialization (during SSR / hydration) to minimize CLS.

Installation

Note: You don't need to install Swiper alongside this package - it has Swiper as dependency and re-exports all things you need such as modules / stylesheets.

Using yarn

yarn add @morev/vue-swiper

Using npm

npm install @morev/vue-swiper

Using pnpm

pnpm add @morev/vue-swiper
