Installation

npm install @vueform/slider

Usage with Vue 3

<template>
  <div>
    <Slider v-model="value" />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  import Slider from '@vueform/slider'

  export default {
    components: {
      Slider,
    },
    data() {
      return {
        value: 20
      }
    }
  }
</script>

<style src="@vueform/slider/themes/default.css"></style>

Using with Vue 2

When using Vue 2 install @vue/composition-api via npm/yarn first:

npm i @vue/composition-api --save-dev

Then install the plugin for Vue:

import Vue from 'vue'
import VueCompositionAPI from '@vue/composition-api'

Vue.use(VueCompositionAPI)

After that make sure to change the imported Slider module to:

import Slider from '@vueform/slider/dist/slider.vue2.js'

Using with Nuxt.js

First you need install @nuxtjs/composition-api:

npm i @nuxtjs/composition-api --save-dev

Then you need to enable it as a module in nuxt.config.js:

{
  buildModules: [
    '@nuxtjs/composition-api'
  ]
}

After that make sure to change the imported module to Vue 2 version of Slider, as Nuxt.js still depends on that:

import Slider from '@vueform/slider/dist/slider.vue2.js'

Styling with CSS vars

The following CSS variables can be used to customize slider when using default.css:

--slider-bg: #D1D5DB;
--slider-connect-bg: #10B981;
--slider-connect-bg-disabled: #9CA3AF;
--slider-height: 6px;
--slider-vertical-height: 300px;
--slider-radius: 9999px;

--slider-handle-bg: #fff;
--slider-handle-border: 0;
--slider-handle-width: 16px;
--slider-handle-height: 16px;
--slider-handle-radius: 9999px;
--slider-handle-shadow: 0.5px 0.5px 2px 1px rgba(0,0,0,.32);
--slider-handle-shadow-active: 0.5px 0.5px 2px 1px rgba(0,0,0,.42);
--slider-handle-ring-width: 3px;
--slider-handle-ring-color: #10B98130;

--slider-tooltip-bg: #10B981;
--slider-tooltip-color: #fff;
--slider-tooltip-radius: 5px;
--slider-tooltip-min-width: 20px;
--slider-tooltip-font-size: 0.875rem;
--slider-tooltip-line-height: 1.25rem;
--slider-tooltip-font-weight: 600;
--slider-tooltip-py: 2px;
--slider-tooltip-px: 6px;
--slider-tooltip-arrow-size: 5px;
--slider-tooltip-distance: 3px;

Override them globally:

:root {
  --slider-connect-bg: #3B82F6;
  --slider-tooltip-bg: #3B82F6;
  --slider-handle-ring-color: #3B82F630;
}

Or on instance level:

<Slider
  v-model="value"
  class="slider-red"
/>

<Slider
  v-model="value"
  class="slider-blue"
/>

.slider-red {
  --slider-connect-bg: #EF4444;
  --slider-tooltip-bg: #EF4444;
  --slider-handle-ring-color: #EF444430;
}

.slider-blue {
  --slider-connect-bg: #3B82F6;
  --slider-tooltip-bg: #3B82F6;
  --slider-handle-ring-color: #3B82F630;
}

Styling with Tailwind CSS

To use the slider with Tailwind CSS you must add it as a plugin to tailwind.config.js:

// tailwind.config.js

module.exports = {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    require('@vueform/slider/tailwind'),
  ]
}

This plugin adds certain utilities and variants which are neccessary for the slider but Tailwind does not provide by default.

Once you've installed the plugin you can define utility classes for different parts of slider without having to require default.css. Here's a default styling for Tailwind CSS:

<Slider v-model="value" :classes="{
  target: 'relative box-border user-select-none touch-none tap-highlight-transparent touch-callout-none disabled:cursor-not-allowed',
  focused: 'slider-focused',
  tooltipFocus: 'slider-tooltip-focus',
  tooltipDrag: 'slider-tooltip-drag',
  ltr: 'slider-ltr',
  rtl: 'slider-rtl',
  horizontal: 'slider-horizontal h-1.5',
  vertical: 'slider-vertical w-1.5 h-80',
  textDirectionRtl: 'slider-txt-rtl',
  textDirectionLtr: 'slider-txt-ltr',
  base: 'w-full h-full relative z-1 bg-gray-300 rounded',
  connects: 'w-full h-full relative overflow-hidden z-0 rounded',
  connect: 'absolute z-1 top-0 right-0 transform-origin-0 transform-style-flat h-full w-full bg-green-500 cursor-pointer tap:duration-300 tap:transition-transform disabled:bg-gray-400 disabled:cursor-not-allowed',
  origin: 'slider-origin absolute z-1 top-0 right-0 transform-origin-0 transform-style-flat h-1/10 w-1/10 h:h-0 txt-rtl-h:left-0 txt-rtl-h:right-auto v:w-0 tap:duration-300 tap:transition-transform',
  handle: 'absolute rounded-full bg-white border-0 shadow-slider cursor-grab focus:outline-none h:w-4 h:h-4 h:-top-1.5 h:-right-2 txt-rtl-h:-left-2 txt-rtl-h:right-auto v:w-4 v:h-4 v:-top-2 v:-right-1.25 disabled:cursor-not-allowed focus:ring focus:ring-green-500 focus:ring-opacity-30',
  touchArea: 'h-full w-full',
  tooltip: 'absolute block text-sm font-semibold whitespace-nowrap py-1 px-1.5 min-w-5 text-center text-white rounded border border-green-500 bg-green-500 transform h:-translate-x-1/2 h:left-1/2 v:-translate-y-1/2 v:top-1/2 disabled:bg-gray-400 disabled:border-gray-400 merge-h:translate-x-1/2 merge-h:left-auto merge-v:-translate-x-4 merge-v:top-auto tt-focus:hidden tt-focused:block tt-drag:hidden tt-dragging:block',
  tooltipTop: 'bottom-6 h:arrow-bottom merge-h:bottom-3.5',
  tooltipBottom: 'top-6 h:arrow-top merge-h:top-5',
  tooltipLeft: 'right-6 v:arrow-right merge-v:right-1',
  tooltipRight: 'left-6 v:arrow-left merge-v:left-7',
  tooltipHidden: 'slider-tooltip-hidden',
  active: 'slider-active shadow-slider-active cursor-grabbing',
  draggable: 'cursor-ew-resize v:cursor-ns-resize',
  tap: 'slider-state-tap',
  drag: 'slider-state-drag',
}" />

There are certain variants that help detecting different states/config of the slider:

• h - applied when the slider is horizontal
• v - applied when the slider is vertical
• merge-h - applied when the slider is horizontal and tooltips are merged
• merge-v - applied when the slider is horizontal and tooltips are merged
• disabled - applied when the slider is disabled
• txt-rtl-h - applied when the slider is horizontal and text direction is set to rtl
• tap - applied when the slider bar is being taped to jump to certain position
• tt-focus - applied when the slider should only display tooltips on focus (showToolip: 'focus') and the slider is not focused
• tt-focused - applied when the slider should only display tooltips on focus and the slider is focused
• tt-drag - applied when the slider should only display tooltips on drag (showToolip: 'drag') and the slider is not being dragged
• tt-dragging - applied when the slider should only display tooltips on drag and the slider is being dragged

The target class receives ltr, rtl, horizontal, vertical, textDirectionRtl, textDirectionLtr, focused, tooltipFocus, tooltipDrag, tap, and drag classes when the related state is applied.

Certain classes do not define any styles (like .slider-horizontal, .slider-vertical) but only required to detect certain states. If you are changing the class list for any class name make sure to always keep the ones that start with slider- to be able to use the utilities mentioned above (h, v, etc).

In case you need to override the same type of utility you might use @neojp/tailwind-important-variant and use eg. bg-green-500!.
