Modal description

Installation

npm i @tryg/vue-ui-library

Usage

Install the component library as a Vue plugin. This globally registers all Anchor components.

main.js
import { createApp } from 'vue';
import { ComponentLibrary } from '@tryg/vue-ui-library';
import App from './App.vue';

const app = createApp(App);
app.use(ComponentLibrary);
app.mount('#app');
YourComponent.vue
<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue';
const isOpen = ref(false);
</script>
<template>
  <anchor-modal :is-visible="isOpen">ANYTHING HERE IS SHOWN WHEN THE MODAL OPENS</anchor-modal>
  <anchor-button text="OPEN MODAL" variant="primary" @click="isOpen = true"></anchor-button>
</template>

Import only the components you need for optimal bundle size.

YourComponent.vue
<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue';
import { AnchorModal, AnchorButton } from '@tryg/vue-ui-library';
const isOpen = ref(false);
</script>
<template>
  <anchor-modal :is-visible="isOpen">ANYTHING HERE IS SHOWN WHEN THE MODAL OPENS</anchor-modal>
  <anchor-button text="OPEN MODAL" variant="primary" @click="isOpen = true"></anchor-button>
</template>

You have to specify the text you want shown next to the Close icon. You add the text as a slot and use the slot name to control if the text is shown before or after the Close icon.

Like this:

<template>
  <anchor-modal>
    <span slot="close-button-before-icon">Close</span>
  </anchor-modal>
</template>

or

<template>
  <anchor-modal>
    <span slot="close-button-after-icon">Close</span>
  </anchor-modal>
</template>

CSS variables

The modal is by default set to be 600px wide and 100% minus a padding for the height. Both of these values are exposed as CSS variables and can be changed in your stylesheet.

VariableDescription
--heightDEPRECATED: kept for backwards compatibility, but will be removed by April 2024
--modal-border-radiusSets the radius for the corners of the Modal
--modal-font-familyAllows you to set a specific font-family for the Modal
--modal-header-heightSets the height of the header of the Modal
--modal-heightThe height of the Modal. Set to 100% of its parent container
--modal-margin-horizontalThe space reserved to the left and right of the Modal
--modal-margin-verticalThe space reserved above and below the Modal
--modal-paddingThe padding of the content area
--modal-positionDetermines the position value of the anchor-modal and anchor-modal__overlay classes
--modal-widthThe width of the Modal. Set to 600 pixels
--modal-z-indexThe z-index of the Modal, when opened
--widthDEPRECATED: kept for backwards compatibility, but will be removed by April 2024

Set a custom width and height for the Modal by setting your own values for these CSS variables:

anchor-modal {
  --modal-width: 400px;
  --modal-height: 400px;
}
<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue';
const isOpen = ref(false);
</script>
<template>
  <anchor-modal :is-visible="isOpen" close-btn="false">CONTENT</anchor-modal>
  <anchor-button text="OPEN MODAL" variant="primary" @click="isOpen = true"></anchor-button>
</template>
<template>
  <anchor-modal is-visible="true">CONTENT</anchor-modal>
</template>

Accessibility

  • The modal uses role="dialog" and aria-modal="true" to clearly communicate its purpose to assistive technologies.
  • Focus is trapped within the modal while it is open using the focusTrap prop (enabled by default), preventing users from tabbing into background content.
  • Pressing Escape closes the modal, providing a standard keyboard escape mechanism.
  • The close button receives an aria-label from the required closeBtnTitle prop, ensuring screen readers announce a meaningful action.
  • Background scrolling is locked when the modal is open via the scrollLock prop (enabled by default). The overlay behind the modal has aria-hidden="true" to avoid announcing decorative content.
