Vue Bootstrap Buttons
Vue Buttons - Bootstrap 4 & Material Design
Use Vue Bootstrap custom button styles for actions in forms, dialogs, and more. Includes support for a handful of contextual variations, sizes, states, and more.
Sizes
Fancy larger or smaller buttons? Add size="lg" or size="sm" for additional sizes.
<template>
<div>
<mdb-btn size="lg" color="primary">Large button</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn size="lg" color="default">Large button</mdb-btn>
</div>
<template>
<script>
import { mdbBtn } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
name: 'ButtonPage',
components: {
mdbBtn
}
}
</script>
<template>
<div>
<mdb-btn size="sm" color="primary">Small button</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn size="sm" color="default">Small button</mdb-btn>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbBtn } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
name: 'ButtonPage',
components: {
mdbBtn
}
}
</script>
Create block level buttons—those that span the full width of a parent—by adding block.
<template>
<div>
<mdb-btn block color="default">Block level button</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn block color="primary">Block level button</mdb-btn>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbBtn } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
name: 'ButtonPage',
components: {
mdbBtn
}
}
</script>
Button states
Active state
btns will appear pressed (with a darker background, darker border, and inset shadow) when active. There’s no need to add a class to <btn>s as they use a pseudo-class.
However, you can still force the same active appearance with active should you need to replicate the state programmatically.
<template>
<div>
<mdb-btn active size="lg" color="primary">btn active</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn tag="a" role="button" active size="lg" href="#">btn active</mdb-btn>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbBtn } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
name: 'ButtonPage',
components: {
mdbBtn
}
}
</script>
Disabled state
Make buttons look inactive by adding the disabled boolean attribute to any <btn> element.
<template>
<div>
<mdb-btn disabled size="lg" color="primary">Primary button</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn disabled size="lg" color="default">Button</mdb-btn>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbBtn } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
name: 'ButtonPage',
components: {
mdbBtn
}
}
</script>
Link functionality caveat
The
.disabledclass usespointer-events: noneto try to disable the link functionality of<a>s, but that CSS property is not yet standardized. In addition, even in browsers that do supportpointer-events: none, keyboard navigation remains unaffected, meaning that sighted keyboard users and users of assistive technologies will still be able to activate these links. So to be safe, add atabindex="-1"attribute on these links (to prevent them from receiving keyboard focus) and use custom JavaScript to disable their functionality.
Button plugin
Do more with buttons. Control button states or create groups of buttons for more components like toolbars.
Toggle states
<template>
<mdb-btn color="primary" @click.native="toggleActiveState" :active="active">Single Toggle</mdb-btn>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbBtn } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
data() {
return {
active: false,
};
},
name: 'ButtonPage',
components: {
mdbBtn
},
methods: {
toggleActiveState() {
this.active = !this.active;
}
}
}
</script>
Checkbox and radio buttons
<template>
<mdb-btn-group>
<mdb-btn color="primary" @click.native="toggleActiveState2" :active="active2">Checkbox 1 (pre-checked)</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn color="primary" @click.native="toggleActiveState3" :active="active3">Checkbox 2</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn color="primary" @click.native="toggleActiveState4" :active="active4">Checkbox 3</mdb-btn>
</mdb-btn-group>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbBtn, mdbBtnGroup } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
data() {
return {
active2: true,
active3: false,
active4: false
};
},
name: 'ButtonPage',
components: {
mdbBtn,
mdbBtnGroup
},
methods: {
toggleActiveState2() {
this.active2 = !this.active2;
},
toggleActiveState3() {
this.active3 = !this.active3;
},
toggleActiveState4() {
this.active4 = !this.active4;
}
}
}
</script>
<template>
<mdb-btn-group>
<mdb-btn color="primary" @click.native="toggleActiveState5" :active="active5">Radio 1 (preselected)</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn color="primary" @click.native="toggleActiveState6" :active="active6">Radio 2</mdb-btn>
<mdb-btn color="primary" @click.native="toggleActiveState7" :active="active7">Radio 3</mdb-btn>
</mdb-btn-group>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbBtn, mdbBtnGroup } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
data() {
return {
active5: true,
active6: false,
active7: false
};
},
name: 'ButtonPage',
components: {
mdbBtn,
mdbBtnGroup
},
methods: {
toggleActiveState5() {
this.active5 = true;
this.active6 = false;
this.active7 = false;
},
toggleActiveState6() {
this.active5 = false;
this.active6 = true;
this.active7 = false;
},
toggleActiveState7() {
this.active5 = false;
this.active6 = false;
this.active7 = true;
}
}
}
</script>
