vue-shadow-badge!

Instalation

Use yarn add vue-shadow-badge or npm i --save vue-shadow-badge

Motivation

In my search for badges, i only found component based badges, for me, this isn't the ideal, so a build a directive based badge that is extensible and highly configurable.

With shadow-dom is easy to create pseudo-elements in any element with a shadowRoot, just look at src/directives/Badge/utils/shadow-dom.js.

Sadly, shadow-dom isn't supported in all browsers, so keep in mind this.

https://caniuse.com/#feat=shadowdom

But...

Now this directive have a fallback for browsers without shadow-dom. If you encounter something strange, please let me know it.

Usage

Simple import globally or locally in your vue app.

Locally:

//SomeComponent.vue

import Badge from 'vue-shadow-badge';

export default {
  directives: {
    Badge
  }
}

Global:

//main.js (or another entry point)

import Vue from 'vue';
import App from './App.vue';
import Badge from 'vue-shadow-badge';

new Vue({
  render: h => h(App),
  directives: {
    Badge
  }
}).$mount('#app')

Now you can use your new directive like this:

<h1 v-badge="badgeConfig">Examples</h1>

or this:

<button v-badge="3">Hi!</button>

or even this:

<span v-badge="{value: 54, right: '10px'}">

badgeConfig accept some values:

Prop	Type	Description
value	number	Sets the value on Badge
right	string	Set the right value for badge placement
left	string	Set the left value for badge placement
down	string	Set the down value for badge placement
up	string	Set the up value for badge placement
styles	string	Customize your badge! (see above)

Examples

<template>
<button-outline v-badge="{
  value: buttonCounter,
  right: '-25px',
  top: '-4px',
  styles: buttonBadgeStyle}" msg="Click Me!" @click.native="buttonCounter++">
</button-outline>
</template>
<script>
export default {
  data() {
    return {
      badgeConfig: {
        value: 2,
        right: '-20px',
        top: '-4px'
      },
      buttonBadgeStyle: `
        border: 2px solid #662a24;
        color: #662a24;
        background-color: transparent;
        font-size: 0.9em;
      `
    }
    }
  }
}
</script>

You can use styles prop to set the positioning of the badge too! Just use right|top|bottom|left: value
