# A Vue component to easily render tabs

[![Latest Version on NPM](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/vue-tabs-component.svg?style=flat-square)](https://npmjs.com/package/vue-tabs-component)
[![Software License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-brightgreen.svg?style=flat-square)](LICENSE.md)
[![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/travis/spatie/vue-tabs-component/master.svg?style=flat-square)](https://travis-ci.org/spatie/vue-tabs-component)
[![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/dt/vue-tabs-component.svg?style=flat-square)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/vue-tabs-component)

The package contains a [Vue](https://vuejs.org/) component to easily display some tabs.

This is how they can be used:
=
```html




This is the content of the first tab


This is the content of the second tab


This content will be unavailable while :is-disabled prop set to true


The fragment that is appended to the url can be customized


A prefix and a suffix can be added



```

When reloading the page the component will automatically [display the tab that was previously opened](https://github.com/spatie/vue-tabs-component#remembering-the-last-opened-tab).

The rendered output adheres to [the ARIA specification](http://heydonworks.com/practical_aria_examples/#tab-interface).

## Demo

You can see a demo here: http://vue-tabs-component.spatie.be

## Installation

You can install the package via yarn:

```bash
yarn add vue-tabs-component
```

or npm:

```php
npm install vue-tabs-component --save
```

## Usage

The most common use case is to register the component globally.

```js
//in your app.js or similar file
import Vue from 'vue';
import {Tabs, Tab} from 'vue-tabs-component';

Vue.component('tabs', Tabs);
Vue.component('tab', Tab);
```

Alternatively you can do this to register the components:

```js
import Tabs from 'vue-tabs-component';

Vue.use(Tabs);
```

On your page you can now use html like this to render tabs:

```html




First tab content


Second tab content


Third tab content



```

By default it will show the first tab.

If you click on a tab a `href` representation of the name will be append to the url. For example clicking on the tab `Second tab` will append `#second-tab` to the url.

When loading a page with a fragment that matches the `href` of a tab, it will open up that tab. For example visiting `/#third-tab` will open up the tab with name `Third tab`.

### Remembering the last opened tab

By default the component will remember which was the last open tab for 5 minutes . If you for instance click on `Third tab` and then visit `/` the third tab will be opened.

You can change the cache life time by passing the lifetime in minutes in the `cache-lifetime` property of the `tabs` component.

```html

...

```

### Disable modifying the url fragment

When using with other libraries that use the url fragment, you can disable modifying the url fragment by passing the `useUrlFragment` options. This helps using it with vue-router, or using vue-tabs-component twice in the same page.

```html

...

```

### Callbacks
Tabs has two events to which you can bind: `changed` and `clicked`

```html

...

```

```js
export default {
...
methods: {
...
tabClicked (selectedTab) {
console.log('Current tab re-clicked:' + selectedTab.tab.name);
},
tabChanged (selectedTab) {
console.log('Tab changed to:' + selectedTab.tab.name);
},
...
}
}
```

`changed` is emitted when the tab changes and can be used as handle to load data on request.
`clicked` is emitted when an active tab is re-clicked and can be used to e.g. reload the data in the current tab.

### Adding a suffix and a prefix to the tab name

You can add a suffix and a prefix to the tab by using the `suffix` and `prefix` attributes.

```html

First tab content

```

The title of the tab will now be `my prefix - First tab - my suffix`.

The fragment that's added to the url when clicking the tab will only be based on the `name` of a tab, the `name-prefix` and `name-suffix` attributes will be ignored.

### Customizing fragments

When clicking on a tab it's name will be used as a fragment in the url. For example clicking on the `Second tab` will append `#second-tab` to the current url.

You can customize that fragment by using the `id` attribute.

```html




First tab content



```

Clicking on `My tab` will then append `#custom-fragment` to the url.

### Setting a default tab

When disabling the cache, it can be useful to specify a default tab to load which is not the first one. You can select this by passing the `defaultTabHash` option.

```html


First tab content


Second tab content

```

### CSS

You can use the [CSS](docs/resources/tabs-component.css) from the docs as a starting point for your own styling.
The output HTML has namespaced classes to target all nodes directly.

```html
