API 🔌

Config options

Usage

Simple one

<template>
  <textarea v-dynamic-height></textarea>
</template>

Custom setup

<template>
  <textarea v-dynamic-height="{ disabled: false, minHeight: '100px' }"></textarea>
</template>

Turn height calc reactive

It might not not be the most beautiful way to do it, but it seems to be a good and efficient way.

The point is just trigger an native input event every time the value prop updates.

<template>
  <textarea
    ref="textarea"
    :value="value"
    @input="onInput"
    v-dynamic-height></textarea>
</template>

<script>
import DynamicHeight from 'vue-dynamic-height';

export default {
  name: 'MyTextareaComponent',
  directives: {
    DynamicHeight,
  },
  props: {
    value: String,
  },
  watch: {
    value() {
      this.triggerEventToDynamicHeight();
    },
  },
  methods: {
    triggerEventToDynamicHeight() {
      this.$nextTick(() => {
        this.$refs.textarea.dispatchEvent(new Event('input'));
      });
    },
    onInput(event) {
      this.$emit('input', event.target.value);
    },
  },
};
</script>
