Composable
Access and control your stepper with the useStepper composable
The useStepper
composable provides methods to interact with and render your stepper. It can be used with or without the Scoped
component.
Usage
Rendering Methods
when
The when method allows rendering content conditionally based on the current step. It can take an id of a step (either a string or an array of a step ID followed by booleans) and a whenFn (the function to execute if the step matches). Additionally, you can provide an optional elseFn (the function to execute if the step does not match).
You can define more complex conditions that not only depend on the current step's ID but also on additional boolean values. This allows for multi-condition logic where each boolean must evaluate to true for the step to match. The boolean values can represent different state conditions or external factors that affect the step's visibility or behavior.
The first element of the array is the step ID, the following elements are the boolean values.
switch
The switch method allows you to render content based on the current step's ID, similar to a switch-case structure. This method provides a cleaner and more scalable way to handle different step-specific rendering logic, making it ideal for scenarios where you need to differentiate the UI depending on the current step without writing multiple when conditions.
match
The match method allows you to render content based on an external state, such as a value fetched from a server or any dynamic state in your application. This provides flexibility for rendering content that is tied not only to the current step in the stepper but also to any other state outside the stepper's context, such as user actions, data from an API, or global application state.
match
allows state-based control from client or server, useful for frameworks like Nuxt with server-side state management.
API Reference
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
all | Step[] | Returns all steps |
current | Step | Returns the current step |
isLast | boolean | Returns true if the current step is the last step |
isFirst | boolean | Returns true if the current step is the first step |
next | () => void | Advances to the next step |
prev | () => void | Returns to the previous step |
get | (id: string) => Step | Returns a step by its ID |
goTo | (id: string) => void | Navigates to a specific step by its ID |
reset | () => void | Resets the stepper to its initial state |
when | (id: string, whenFn: (step: Step) => VNodeChild, elseFn?: (step: Step) => VNodeChild) => VNodeChild | Executes a function based on the current step ID |
switch | (steps: { [id: string]: (step: Step) => VNodeChild }) => VNodeChild | Executes a function based on a switch-case-like structure for steps |
match | (state: string, steps: { [id: string]: (step: Step) => VNodeChild }) => VNodeChild | Matches the current state with a set of possible states and executes the corresponding function |
