Quasar is a popular Vue UI library for developing good looking Vue apps.
In this article, we’ll take a look at how to create Vue apps with the Quasar UI library.
Context Menu
We can add a context menu with the q-menu component and the context-menu prop:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link
href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:100,300,400,500,700,900|Material+Icons"
rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"
/>
<link
href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quasar@1.12.13/dist/quasar.min.css"
rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"
/>
</head>
<body class="body--dark">
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue@^2.0.0/dist/vue.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quasar@1.12.13/dist/quasar.umd.min.js"></script>
<div id="q-app">
<q-layout
view="lHh Lpr lFf"
container
style="height: 100vh;"
class="shadow-2 rounded-borders"
>
<div class="q-pa-md">
<q-img
src="https://cdn.quasar.dev/img/parallax1.jpg"
style="height: 100px;"
>
<q-menu touch-position context-menu>
<q-list dense style="min-width: 100px;">
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<q-item-section>Open...</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<q-item-section>New</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-separator></q-separator>
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<q-item-section>Quit</q-item-section>
</q-item>
</q-list>
</q-menu>
</q-img>
</div>
</q-layout>
</div>
<script>
new Vue({
el: "#q-app",
data: {}
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
We add the q-menu component inside the q-img component so that when we right-click on the image, we see the menu displayed.
Persistent Menu
We can create a persistent menu with the persistent prop:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link
href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:100,300,400,500,700,900|Material+Icons"
rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"
/>
<link
href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quasar@1.12.13/dist/quasar.min.css"
rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"
/>
</head>
<body class="body--dark">
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue@^2.0.0/dist/vue.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quasar@1.12.13/dist/quasar.umd.min.js"></script>
<div id="q-app">
<q-layout
view="lHh Lpr lFf"
container
style="height: 100vh;"
class="shadow-2 rounded-borders"
>
<div class="q-pa-md">
<q-btn color="primary" label="Persistent Menu">
<q-menu persistent auto-close>
<q-list style="min-width: 100px;">
<q-item clickable>
<q-item-section>New tab</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-item clickable>
<q-item-section>New incognito tab</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-separator></q-separator>
<q-item clickable>
<q-item-section>Recent tabs</q-item-section>
</q-item>
</q-list>
</q-menu>
</q-btn>
</div>
</q-layout>
</div>
<script>
new Vue({
el: "#q-app",
data: {}
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
Then the menu only closes when we click on the button.
Menu Transitions
We can add transition effects when we click on the menu by adding the transition-show and transition-hide props to add a transition when the menu is being shown or hidden respectively.
To do this, we write:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link
href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:100,300,400,500,700,900|Material+Icons"
rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"
/>
<link
href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quasar@1.12.13/dist/quasar.min.css"
rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"
/>
</head>
<body class="body--dark">
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue@^2.0.0/dist/vue.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quasar@1.12.13/dist/quasar.umd.min.js"></script>
<div id="q-app">
<q-layout
view="lHh Lpr lFf"
container
style="height: 100vh;"
class="shadow-2 rounded-borders"
>
<div class="q-pa-md">
<q-btn color="primary" label="Menu">
<q-menu transition-show="flip-right" transition-hide="flip-left">
<q-list style="min-width: 100px;">
<q-item clickable>
<q-item-section>New tab</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-item clickable>
<q-item-section>New incognito tab</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-separator></q-separator>
<q-item clickable>
<q-item-section>Recent tabs</q-item-section>
</q-item>
</q-list>
</q-menu>
</q-btn>
</div>
</q-layout>
</div>
<script>
new Vue({
el: "#q-app",
data: {}
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
Other options for the 2 props include scale , jump-down , and jump-up .
Conclusion
We can add context menus and menus with transition effects into our Vue app with Quasar.
