Vue Business Hours

Vue component for setting business hours in an administration panel. Option to use a text <input> and <datalist> component with 'autocomplete' functionality for greater flexbility to define business hours. Or a <select> component to limit options to predetermined times in 15, 30 and 60 minute increments.

Demo

Install

NPM

Install with NPM

npm install vue-business-hours

Then in your main.js or other entry point register as a plugin.

import BusinessHours from 'vue-business-hours';

Vue.use(BusinessHours);

Or register as a component.

import BusinessHours from 'vue-business-hours';

Vue.component('BusinessHours', BusinessHours);

CDN

You can also add this component straight to an HTML page with a <script> tag along with Vue and Moment.js.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/vue.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/moment.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue-business-hours"></script>

Usage

This component can be used for regular business hours, holiday hours and/or other special hours with simple configuration changes.

<div id="app">
  <!-- default -->
  <h2>Business Hours</h2>
  <business-hours :days="days"></business-hours>

  <!-- with options -->
  <h2>Holiday Hours</h2>
  <business-hours
    :days="holidays"
    name="holidayHours"
    type="select"
    :time-increment="60"
    color="#00af0b"
  ></business-hours>
</div>

In your main.js, App.vue or in <script> tags on your HTML page.

new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data() {
    return {
      days: yourDaysObject,
      holidays: yourHolidaysObject
    };
  }
});

Here's an example in an App.vue file fetching the days object with an Axios API call.

<template>
  <h1>Business Hours</h1>
  <section v-if="errored">
    <p>
      Oops, something went wrong. Please check the console for more details.
    </p>
  </section>
  <section v-else>
    <div v-if="loading">Loading...</div>
    <business-hours v-else :days="businessHours"></business-hours>
  </section>
</template>

<script>
  import axios from 'axios';

  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        businessHours: {},
        loading: true,
        errored: false
      };
    },
    created() {
      this.getData('https://example.com/api/business-hours-endpoint').then(
        data => (this.businessHours = data)
      );
    },
    methods: {
      getData: function(endpoint) {
        return axios
          .get(endpoint)
          .then(response => {
            return response.data;
          })
          .catch(error => {
            // eslint-disable-next-line
            console.log(error);
            this.errored = true;
          })
          .finally(() => (this.loading = false));
      }
    }
  };
</script>

The width of the component is set by its containing element's width. For default usage, we recommend setting the containing element to 660px. If you adjust the toggle switch via the switchWidth prop to a value greater than the 90px default, you may need to set the containing element to wider than 660px.

    placeholderCloses: 'Closes',
    addHours: 'Add hours',
    open: {
