@appydesign/polaris-vue NPM

Notice: This has recently been detached so I am working on updating NPM modules and bringing the components up to date. If you'd like to help I'd welcome PRs!

Allows you to use Shopify Polaris components in Vue 2.

This library currently contains components up-to-date with: @shopify/polaris v1.9.1

polaris-vue has been used in production and been exposed to thousands of merchants, but please note that there may still be some rough edges. If you notice any bugs, please submit a PR or issue. You can also contact support@appydesign.co.uk

Getting started

npm install @appydesign/polaris-vue

When initializing Vue, i.e. in main.js:

import Vue from 'vue';
import PolarisVue from '@appydesign/polaris-vue';

// Recommended: import the correct CSS for the version of Polaris the library uses.
import '@appydesign/polaris-vue/lib/polaris-vue.css';

// Register the plugin with Vue
Vue.use(PolarisVue);

// Use polaris components in your Vue templates
new Vue({
    el: '#app',
    template: '<polaris-layout><polaris-button>Hello world!</polaris-button></polaris-layout>'
});

Check the demo page for usage examples.

Viewing the demo page

The demo page contains code examples of almost all the functionality in the library, so it can be pretty helpful.

To view the demo, open up node_modules/@appydesign/polaris-vue/test/index.html after installing the library.

Or to create a standalone copy: clone the repo, run npm run dev, then open the file at test/index.html.

Differences to @shopify/polaris

There are a few differences from the official react version you should be aware of:

1. Naming for some attributes has been adjusted to be more Vue-like.

i.e. Button is <polaris-button>, helpText is :help-text, and onDismiss is @dismiss.

                     |  Polaris        |  Polaris-Vue     |
                     +-----------------+------------------+
Component            |  Banner         |  polaris-banner  |
Prop (HTML attr)     |  helpText       |  help-text       |
Prop (JS)            |  helpText       |  helpText        |
Event                |  onDismiss      |  @dismiss        |

2. Attributes in the original library which accept ReactNodes have been implemented as both props and slots in this library, so you can include slot templates in them if needed.

<polaris-layout-section :description="Hello world!">
    <p>Body</p>
</polaris-layout-section>

<polaris-layout-section>
    <template slot="description">
        Hello <strong>world</strong>!
    </template>
    <p>Body</p>
</polaris-layout-section>

3. Where render functions are passed to components (at the moment only ResourceList), this library instead uses scoped slots.

Check out the <polaris-resource-list> examples on the demo page for examples.

4. No support for the Polaris EASDK integrations.

This library doesn't currently support complete integration with the EASDK.

Support for the official behavior is planned.

Configuration

The plugin supports passing configuration via Vue.use. Here's the defaults:

Vue.use(PolarisVue, {
    // Allows you to change the default component names
    componentNameFormat: (polarisName, changeCase) => {
        // polarisName is the name of the component as it appears in Shopfiy/polaris
        // changeCase is an instance of the `change-case` library.
        
        // By default the library takes 'FormLayout' and turns it into
        // the tag name polaris-form-layout, etc.
        return 'polaris-' + changeCase.paramCase(polarisName);
    },
});

Icons and Laravel Mix

If you are using mix from Laravel, then you'll need to set up the inline loader for the svg icons otherwise you'll only see the grey square placeholder.

You can add an override like so, where we run the html-loader to parse the svg files into their HTML.

mix.override(config => {
config.module.rules.find(rule =>
rule.test.test('.svg')
).exclude = /\.svg$/

    config.module.rules.push({
        test: /\.svg$/,
        use: [
            {loader: 'html-loader'}
        ]
    })
})
