Introduction

Vue form elements is a set of form elements you can use in your Vue.js project. For example, you can create checkbox groups, radio button groups and sliders. All these elements support Vue's form input bindings (https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/forms.html) so you can use v-model on them. The package comes with minimal styling.

Installation

Package installation

Add the package to your project:

yarn add @acato/vue-form-elements
# or NPM:
# npm install --save @acato/vue-form-elements

Registering it to Vue.js

In your code, add the following line:

import Vue from 'vue';
import VueFormElements from '@acato/vue-form-elements';

Vue.use(VueFormElements, {
    requiredLabel: '*',
    optionalLabel: '(optional)',
});

This will add all elements from the package to your project. Alternatively you can add only the components you'll need:

import Vue from 'vue';
import VFESlider from '@acato/vue-form-elements/vue/elements/vfe-slider';

// globally
Vue.component('vfe-slider', VFESlider);

// within a component
...
    {
        props: {...},
        methods: {...},
        ...
        components: {
            'vfe-slider': VFESlider,
            ...
        }
    }
...

Add minimal styling

Some form elements such as the (non-native) select box and autocompelete, need a minimal styling to in order to be usable. Import this styling in you sass:

@import '@acato/vue-form-elements/scss/vue-form-elements';

If you don't want all the default styling, only include the styling for the elements you would like to include. There are some sass-variables available for you to easily color the elements. Please check out these variabales at @acato/vue-form-elements/scss/_variables.scss.

Basic usage
