Vue-Overlay-Host

About

The Overlay-Host allows you to easily inject your custom Overlay-Components and manage those. It's simple and efficient and isn't hard to install nor to use.

Installation

Install the Overlay-Host via a package manager of your choice

# Add the dependency with your package manager
yarn add vue-overlay-host
npm i vue-overlay-host

Then register the Component and the Vuex-Store Plugin. This is an example with a basic setup

main.js

import { OverlayHost, OverlayHostPlugin } from 'vue-overlay-host';

// Register the Overlay-Host Component globally
Vue.component('overlay-host', OverlayHost);

// Register the Plugin to the Store when you initialize it
const store = new Vuex.Store({
    plugins: [OverlayHostPlugin],
});

App.vue

<template>
    <div>
        <div class="your-app-content"></div>
        <overlay-host />
    </div>
</template>

SampleComponent.vue

<template>
    <button v-on:click="openSomething()"></button>
</template>

<script>
export default {
    methods: {
        openSomething() {
            this.$store.dispatch('vue-overlay-host/open', {
                component: 'my-modal',
                overlay: {
                    show: true,
                    closeOnClick: true,
                },
                closeOnEscape: true,
            })
            .then(hosted => {
                console.log('modal opened!');
                return hosted.promise;
            })
            .then(() => console.log('modal closed!'));
        }
    }
}
</script>
