A Stimulusjs controller to help with displaying progress when a user is filling out forms.
Checkout the demo
You must have StimulusJS already installed.
yarn add stimulus-form-progress-bar
or
npm install stimulus-form-progress-bar
or use directly from unpkg:
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@hotwired/stimulus/dist/stimulus.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/stimulus-form-progress-bar/dist/stimulus-form-progress-bar.umd.js"></script>
Next you have to initialize StimulusJS and import the Stimulus Form Progress Bar
import { Application } from "stimulus"
import { definitionsFromContext } from "stimulus/webpack-helpers"
const application = Application.start()
const context = require.context("controllers", true, /_controller\.js$/)
application.load(definitionsFromContext(context))
import { ProgressBar } from 'stimulus-form-progress-bar'
application.register('progress-bar', ProgressBar)
Add the relevant markup to get started. Note this example uses TailwindCSS.
Note you need a bar target and each input element except radio buttons need a required attribute.
- Add data-controller to the parent div
- Add data-progress-bar-target='bar' to your progress bar with a width of 0
<div data-controller='progress-bar' class="container mx-auto">
<div class="relative pt-1 px-2">
<div class="flex mb-2 items-center justify-between">
<div>
<span class="text-xs font-semibold inline-block py-1 px-2 uppercase rounded-full text-purple-600 bg-purple-200">
Start
</span>
</div>
<div class="text-right">
<span class="text-xs font-semibold inline-block py-1 px-2 uppercase rounded-full text-purple-600 bg-purple-200">
Finish
</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="overflow-hidden h-2 mb-4 text-xs flex rounded bg-purple-200">
<div data-progress-bar-target='bar' required class="shadow-none flex flex-col text-center whitespace-nowrap text-white justify-center bg-purple-500">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
- Next, add a
required
attribute to the input element followed bydata-action='progress-bar#updateProgressBar'
<input data-action='progress-bar#updateProgressBar' type="text" name="name" id="name" placeholder="John Doe" required class="form-input" />
Checkout the example in the docs/index.html file
There are three configuration options that you can use to change your progress bar behaviour.
data-progress-bar-width-value='30'
will set the initial progress bar to 30%
data-progress-bar-increment-value='30'
will decide how much the bar should be incremented. In this case, it's 30%. Default is calculated based on number of inputs in the form
data-progress-bar-min-width-value='30'
will set the minimum width of the bar
