## Installation

This library supports both Vue 3 and Vue 2. However, active maintenance is focused on Vue 3. If you still need to support Vue 2, you can stay on version [`0.5.2`](https://github.com/morkro/vue-a11y-dialog/tree/0.5.2).

**Vue 3**

```bash
npm install vue-a11y-dialog
```

**Vue 2**

```bash
npm install [email protected]
```

## Usage

In your `main.js` application file, install the component:

```js
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import A11yDialog from 'vue-a11y-dialog'
import App from './App.vue'

createApp(App).use(A11yDialog).mount('#app')
```

Then use it as follows:

```html




Open dialog



Your dialog title


Your content




```

```js
export default {
name: 'YourComponent',

data: () => ({
dialog: null
}),

methods: {
openDialog() {
if (this.dialog) {
this.dialog.show()
}
},

assignDialogRef(dialog) {
this.dialog = dialog
}
}
}
```

It's important to assign the direct reference to the dialog instance via `@dialog-ref`, otherwise there is no way to call its methods.

Alternatively, you can also import the component directly into your file without installing it first:

```js
import { A11yDialog } from 'vue-a11y-dialog'
export default {
name: 'YourComponent',

components: {
'a11y-dialog': A11yDialog
},

methods: {
// ...
}
}
```

### Multiple dialogs

It's possible to use multiple dialogs in the same component, just make sure to assign the different `dialog` instances separately.

In your ``:

```html



assignDialogRef('first', dialog)"
>

First dialog title


Your content




assignDialogRef('second', dialog)"
>

Second dialog title


Your content




```

In your ``:

```js
import { A11yDialog } from 'vue-a11y-dialog';
export default {
name: 'YourComponent',

data: () => ({
dialogs: {}
}),

methods: {
assignDialogRef(type, dialog) {
this.dialogs[type] = dialog
}
}
}
```

<!-- ... -->
</a11y-dialog>
```

</template>
<!-- ... -->

## Server-side Rendering

This is a client-only component; `a11y-dialog` won't render anything on the server and wait for your bundle to be executed on the client.
