Textarea¶

Textarea is a component that allows the user to enter text over multiple rows. It is a wrapper around the native <textarea> element.

Usage¶

Include the vc-textarea component in your Vue application.

vc-textarea

Usage¶

Basic VueDynamic Views

Create a basic textarea as follows:

<template>
    <vc-textarea v-model="textareaProperty" :placeholder="Textarea placeholder" :label="Textarea label"></vc-textarea>
</template>

To start using all the available textarea properties, specify the vc-textarea component when creating the schema. For example:

{
    id: "textareaId",
    component: "vc-textarea",
    label: "Textarea label",
    property: "textareaProperty",
    placeholder: "Textarea placeholder",
}

Textarea API¶

API empowers you to create dynamic and interactive textarea component to customize its appearance and behavior.

Basic Vue¶

You can easily incorporate the vc-textarea component into your Vue applications using simple templates.

Props¶

To customize the appearance and behavior of your textarea, use the following props:

Property and Type	Description
`placeholder` {string}	Textarea placeholder text.
`modelValue` {string}	Model of the component.
`required` {boolean}	Textarea required state.
`disabled` {boolean}	Put component in disabled mode.
`label` {string}	Textarea label text.
`tooltip` {string}	Textarea tooltip information.
`name` {string}	Used to specify the name of the control.
`maxchars` {string}	Specify a max length of model.
`errorMessage` {string}	Validation error message.
`multilanguage` {boolean}	Textarea multilanguage state.
`currentLanguage` {string}	Textarea current language.

Slots¶

To enhance the content of the vc-textarea component, use the slot system:

Name	Type	Description
`error`	void	Slot for errors

Emits¶

To interact with the vc-textarea component, use the emitted events. The update:modelValue event is triggered when the value of the component changes:

Name	Parameters	ReturnType	Description
`update:modelValue`	value: `string \\| undefined`	`void`	Emitted when the value of the component changes.

Dynamic Views¶

To dynamically integrate the vc-textarea component into your views, use the schema interface:

interface TextareaSchema {
    id: string;
    component: "vc-textarea";
    label?: string;
    property: string;
    rules?: IValidationRules;
    placeholder?: string;
    tooltip?: string;
    clearable?: boolean;
    disabled?: {
        method: string;
    };
    multilanguage?: boolean;
    visibility?: {
        method: string;
    };
    update?: {
        method: string;
    };
    horizontalSeparator?: boolean;
}

To incorporate the textarea into your dynamic applications, define the following properties:

Property and Type	Description
`id` {string}	The unique Id for the `vc-textarea` component.
`component` {vc-textarea}	Component used in schema.
`label` {string}	Label for the textarea. Also available interpolation `{}` syntax based on current element context. You can specify the localization key for the `label`. Under the hood, vue-i18n is used.
`property` {string}	Property name that is used for binding textarea value to blade data. Supports deep nested properties like `property[1].myProperty`. Additionally, you have the flexibility to bind computed property that returns a value. Computed property should be defined in the blade `scope`.
