vue-router-spa-tabs

Package Incomplete and Broken

Description

This Package is used to make your Application tabular, like chrome or sublime text. It achieves this by keeping a track of which routes do you want to open in tabs, opens those routes in tabs, and keeps alive those tabs so they are not rerendered everytime they open. Based on an amazing package by adamschwartz/chrome-tabs but molded for Vue Router

Note: Works best with socket implementation which updates the tabs on the fly for new data otherwise it would require to close and reopen the tab for rerendering it based on new data from server / database.

Installation

npm install vue-router-spa-tabs

Usage

1) Initialize the Package

app.js

import {tabs} from 'vue-router-spa-tabs'
tabs(store, router)

app.css

@import "node_modules/vue-router-spa-tabs/src/css/chromeTabs.css";

or copy paste css from file

1) Routes.js

Routes should include name and meta.tab with tab value is what will be displayed in the Tab Title

export const routes = [
{path: '/', component: App, name: 'home', meta: {tab: 'Dashboard'}}
];

2) Component Name = Router Link Name

router.js

{path: '/', name: 'home'}

component.vue

...
<script>
    export default {
        name: 'home'
    }
</script>
...

3) Make vue-router available global

window.router = rather than router =

window.router = new VueRouter({
routes
});

4) example.vue
