Web Component Wrapper

Usage

To create a web component using vue-web-component-wrapper, follow the steps below:

Import the necessary modules in your entry file:

javascript

import App from './App.vue';
import tailwindStyles from './assets/tailwind.css?raw';
import { createWebHashHistory, createRouter } from "vue-router";
import { createI18n } from 'vue-i18n';
import { createStore } from 'vuex'
import { createPinia } from 'pinia'
import { defaultRoutes } from './main.routes.js'
import { store } from './store/index.js'
import { defineCustomElement as VueDefineCustomElement, h, createApp, getCurrentInstance } from 'vue';
import { createWebComponent } from 'vue-web-component-wrapper';

Set up the instances and use your plugins. This is where you configure your Vuex/Pinia store, Vue router, and other Vue plugins.

javascript

export const pluginsWrapper = {
  install(GivenVue: any) {
    const Vue = GivenVue

    //Vuex
    const createdStore = createStore(store)
    Vue.use(createdStore)

    //or Pinia
    const pinia = createPinia()
    Vue.use(pinia)

    //Vue Router
    const router = createRouter({
      history: createWebHashHistory(),
      routes: defaultRoutes,
    })
    Vue.use(router)

    //Vue I18n
    const i18n = createI18n({
      locale: 'en',
      fallbackLocale: 'en',
    })
    Vue.use(i18n)
  },
}

Create your web component using createWebComponent. It takes an options object where you specify your root Vue component, the element name for your custom element, any plugins you want to use, and any CSS framework styles.

javascript

createWebComponent({
  rootComponent: App,
  elementName: 'my-web-component',
  plugins: pluginsWrapper,
  cssFrameworkStyles: tailwindStyles,
  VueDefineCustomElement,
  h,
  createApp,
  getCurrentInstance,
  disableStyleRemoval: false,
  disableShadowDOM: false,
});

Each option in the createWebComponent function has a specific purpose:

rootComponent: The root component of your Vue application.
elementName: The tag name for your custom web component. It must contain a hyphen and be lowercase.
plugins: Any Vue plugins you want to use in your application.
cssFrameworkStyles: Any CSS or SCSS styles that your application needs.
VueDefineCustomElement: The defineCustomElement function from Vue.
h: The h function from Vue.
createApp: The createApp function from Vue.
getCurrentInstance: The getCurrentInstance function from Vue.
disableStyleRemoval: A boolean value that determines whether or not to remove styles on unmount. This is useful for CSS transitions.
disableShadowDOM: A boolean value that determines whether or not to use Shadow DOM for the web component.
