# vue-extend-layout
A simple extend the default layout or create custom layouts for your SPA Vue.js, using dynamic import component.

> For vue-extend-layout version 1.* you can access [this link](https://github.com/ktquez/vue-extend-layout/tree/v1.1.3)

## [vue-cli-plugin-layouts](https://github.com/ktquez/vue-cli-plugin-layouts) (vue-cli 3)
You can easily add the vue-extend-layout in your vue-cli 3 project.

```shell
vue add layouts
```

You will be asked if you want the plugin to configure the component for you automatically, if you accept, the plugin will create the default layout in the `src/layouts/default.vue` directory and will convert your `App.vue` into a *wrapper* for the layouts, similar to this example (https://github.com/ktquez/vue-extend-layout#in-your-appvue)

---

## Others installations

**NPM**
```shell
npm install vue-extend-layout --save
```

**Yarn**
```shell
yarn add vue-extend-layout
```

## Create and Using layouts

First of all:
- Create a directory called `layouts/` inside the main directory of your application, usually it will be from `src/layouts/`
- Inside the layout directory create a layout called `default.vue`

For example:
`src/layouts/default.vue`
```vue








export default {
name: 'defaultLayout' // you can enter any name (optional)
}

/* your style */

```

#### In your `App.vue`

```vue



import VueExtendLayouts from 'vue-extend-layout'

export default {
name: 'App',
components: { VueExtendLayouts }
}

```

## Custom extend layout
To create a layout you just need to create a component within the layouts directory and name that component.

For example:
`src/layouts/auth.vue`

```vue




export default {
name: 'MyNameComponent' // you can enter any name (optional)
}

/* your style */

```

And to extend this layout in any the desired route, simply include the property `layout: auth` in meta object of the route.
```javascript
{
path: '/login',
name: 'Login',
component: () => import('@/pages/Login'),
meta: {
layout: 'auth'
}
}
```

# Create a error layout (Optional)

For example:
`src/layouts/error.vue`

```vue


PAGE NOT FOUND


export default {
name: 'error' // you can enter any name (optional)
}

/* your style */

```

And in the route add in the 'meta' object the 'layout' property with the name of the layout component, in this case 'error'.
```javascript
{
path: '*',
name: 'Error',
// component: () => import('@/pages/Error') (Optional)
meta: {
layout: 'error' // name of the layout
}
}
```

## Defining the directory path of layouts

Prop | Data Type | default | Description
---------- | ---------- | ---------- | -----------
`path` | String | `layouts` | The layout directory path without a slash at the end

```vue



import VueExtendLayouts from 'vue-extend-layout'

export default {
name: 'App',
components: { VueExtendLayouts }
}

```

In this example the layouts will be in `src/views/layouts`

# Loading layout

For pages that need to load ajax requests and that take a moment to load, you can define a custom layout for a loading effect. Working only reloaded page;

**Attn: Only works when the page refreshes.**

Prop | Data Type | default | Description
---------- | ---------- | -------- | -----------
`loading` | String | `null` | Set the loading layout for late routes

```vue



import VueExtendLayouts from 'vue-extend-layout'

export default {
name: 'App',
components: { VueExtendLayouts }
}

```

**In the above example, the webpack will load the layout `loading.vue`**

> See example: https://vue-layouts2.surge.sh/contact

# Layout prefix

Add a prefix, avoiding conflict between the components of the layout and its application.

It also gives you the ability to load layouts according to the user's choices and seasonality, such as loading layouts on commemorative dates, using a new or modified version of the application, internationalization defining a layout template for a particular country, and so on.

Prop | Data Type | default | Description
---------- | ---------- | -------- | -----------
`prefix` | String | | Set the layout prefix

```vue



import VueExtendLayouts from 'vue-extend-layout'

export default {
name: 'App',
components: { VueExtendLayouts }
}

```

**For example, if the layout is `default.vue` and you add the prefix `old-` the webpack will load the `old-default.vue` layout**
