Vue Form Components

This package provides easy form wrappers for Vue2, based upon the Bootstrap CSS Framework.

The following components which are supported are:

• Standard Input Box (Including input addons)
• Toggle Switch
• Text Area

Installation

You can install this package by running the following command: npm install --save vue-form-components

You can then import this package into your project using one of the following:

Import VueFormComponents from 'vue-form-components'

Or

require('vue-form-components')

If you would just like to import one or selected components, you can do the following:

Import { InputBoxComponent } from 'vue-form-components'

Usage

I recommend when using this package to declare the components as global components. This can be done one of the following ways:

Import VueFormComponents from 'vue-form-components';
Vue.component('input-box', VueFormComponents.InputBoxComponent);

Or

const VueFormComponents  = require('vue-form-components');
Vue.component('input-box', VueFormComponents.InputBoxComponent);

You can then use these components globally throughout your application.

Standard Input Box

This component is designed to save time and repetition by not having to duplicate form groups. The name for this component is InputBoxComponent. This component can be used in conjunction with the v-model directive.

Addons

With the Standard input box component, you can also use input group addons. This can be done by simply adding slots.

For example, if I wanted to create an input box, with an addon on the right hand side, I could do the following:

<input-box v-model="model" name="email_address" label="Email Address">
    <div slot="rightAddon">@example.com</div>
</input-box>

Alternatively, for a button on the right hand side, I could do the following:

<input-box v-model="model" name="email_address" label="Email Address">
    <button slot="rightBtn" class="btn btn-default">Search</button>
</input-box>

Toggle Switch

This component displays a nice alternative to a standard checkbox. The name for this component is SwitchComponent. This component can be used in conjunction with the v-model directive.

Text Area

This component generates a textarea within a bootstrap form group. The name for this component is TextAreaComponent. This component can be used in conjunction with the v-model directive.
