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.
Menu
We can add a menu into our Vue app with the q-menu component.
For instance, we can 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="Basic Menu">
<q-menu>
<q-list style="min-width: 100px;">
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<q-item-section>New tab</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<q-item-section>New incognito tab</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-separator></q-separator>
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<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"
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
We add the q-menu component inside the q-btn to make the button trigger the menu.
We can auto toggle the menu by binding to a reactive property with v-model :
<!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">
<div class="q-gutter-sm">
<q-btn color="primary" @click="showing = true" label="Show"></q-btn>
<q-btn
color="primary"
@click="showing = false"
label="Hide"
></q-btn>
</div>
<div>
<q-menu v-model="showing">
<q-list style="min-width: 100px;">
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<q-item-section>New tab</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<q-item-section>New incognito tab</q-item-section>
</q-item>
<q-separator></q-separator>
<q-item clickable v-close-popup>
<q-item-section>Recent tabs</q-item-section>
</q-item>
</q-list>
</q-menu>
</div>
</div>
</q-layout>
</div>
<script>
new Vue({
el: "#q-app",
data: {
showing: false
}
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
We can add submenus with the q-menu component:
<!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="Click me">
<q-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>
<q-item-section>Preferences</q-item-section>
<q-item-section side>
<q-icon name="keyboard_arrow_right"></q-icon>
</q-item-section>
<q-menu anchor="top end" self="top start">
<q-list>
<q-item v-for="n in 3" :key="n" dense clickable>
<q-item-section>Submenu</q-item-section>
<q-item-section side>
<q-icon name="keyboard_arrow_right"></q-icon>
</q-item-section>
<q-menu auto-close anchor="top end" self="top start">
<q-list>
<q-item v-for="n in 3" :key="n" dense clickable>
<q-item-section>3rd level Label</q-item-section>
</q-item>
</q-list>
</q-menu>
</q-item>
</q-list>
</q-menu>
</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-btn>
</div>
</q-layout>
</div>
<script>
new Vue({
el: "#q-app",
data: {}
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
We add the q-btn component to add a button to trigger the menu.
Then we add the submenu by adding the q-menu inside the q-item component.
Conclusion
We can add the Quasarq-menu component to add a menu into our Vue app.
