Usage

šŸ‘€šŸ‘‰ Demo: CodeSandbox

<template>
  <content-loader></content-loader>
</template>

<script>
import { ContentLoader } from 'vue-content-loader'

export default {
  components: {
    ContentLoader,
  },
}
</script>

Built-in loaders

import {
  ContentLoader,
  FacebookLoader,
  CodeLoader,
  BulletListLoader,
  InstagramLoader,
  ListLoader,
} from 'vue-content-loader'

ContentLoader is a meta loader while other loaders are just higher-order components of it. By default ContentLoader only displays a simple rectangle, here's how you can use it to create custom loaders:

<ContentLoader viewBox="0 0 250 110">
  <rect x="0" y="0" rx="3" ry="3" width="250" height="10" />
  <rect x="20" y="20" rx="3" ry="3" width="220" height="10" />
  <rect x="20" y="40" rx="3" ry="3" width="170" height="10" />
  <rect x="0" y="60" rx="3" ry="3" width="250" height="10" />
  <rect x="20" y="80" rx="3" ry="3" width="200" height="10" />
  <rect x="20" y="100" rx="3" ry="3" width="80" height="10" />
</ContentLoader>

This is also how ListLoader is created.

You can also use the online tool to create shapes for your custom loader.

Examples

Responsiveness

To create a responsive loader that will follow its parent container width, use only the viewBox attribute to set the ratio:

<ContentLoader viewBox="0 0 300 200">
  <!-- ... -->
</ContentLoader>

To create a loader with fixed dimensions, use width and height attributes:

<ContentLoader width="300" height="200">
  <!-- ... -->
</ContentLoader>

Note: the exact behavior might be different depending on the CSS you apply to SVG elements.
