Dynamic modal v2.0.0+

Vue Final Modal has a helper function to dynamically show a modal. This means that you don't have to add the modal to your Vue template and you don't have to use v-model to hide or show the modal. You can simply execute $vfm.show and pass a modal component as per the example below:

import { $vfm } from 'vue-final-modal'

$vfm.show({ component: 'MyDynamicModal' })

The component MyDynamicModal is hypothetical, check the Examples below for an accurate example.

Prerequisite

As a requirement to using Dynamic modals you must add <ModalsContainer /> to your main App.vue file like so:

App.vue
<template>
  <div>
    ...
    <modals-container></modals-container>
  </div>
</template>
App.vue
<script>
import { ModalsContainer } from 'vue-final-modal'

export default {
  components: {
    ModalsContainer
  }
}
</script>

ModalsContainer is an invisible Vue component that is responsible for hosting the Vue instances of your dynamic modals. You don't need to do add anything else to the ModalsContainer, as long as you include it in your Vue tree, you can use Dynamic modals.

API

$vfm.show(dynamicModalOptions, params)

  • Type: Function,
  • Arguments:
    • dynamicModalOptions: Object 
      type dynamicModalOptions = {
  component?: string | Component | AsyncComponent // modal component
  bind?: { [key: string]: any}, // bind props and attrs to modal
  on?: { [key: string]: Function | Function[] } // register events to modal
  slots?: {
    [key: string]: // slot name
      | {
          component: string | Component | AsyncComponent // slot component
          bind?: { [key: string]: any } // bind props and attrs to slot component
          on?: { [key: string]: Function | Function[] } // register events to slot component
        }
      | string
  }
}
    • params: same as API $vfm.show
  • Returns: Promise<Object> | Promise<Array>

To show dynamic modal you can use the API $vfm.show function.

$vfm.dynamicModals

  • Type:
    • Array: returns dynamic modal instances.
  • Examples:
    • get the first created dynamic modal instance 
        this.$vfm.dynamicModals[0]
    • get how many dynamic modals was created 
        this.$vfm.dynamicModals.length

Examples

Basic

<template>
  <v-button @click="dynamic">Open Dynamic Modal</v-button>

    dynamic() {
      this.$vfm.show({
        component: 'VDynamicModal'
      })
    }
  }
}
