The Modal Layout app provides blocks to help you create modals in your store.
Configuration
- Add the Modal Layout app to your theme dependencies in the
manifest.json
:
_10 "dependencies": {_10+ "vtex.modal-layout": "0.x"_10 }
Now, you can use all blocks exported by the modal-layout
app. See the full list below:
Block name | Description |
---|---|
modal-trigger | Defines how the modal content will be triggered through its children blocks. |
modal-layout | Defines how the modal content will be rendered through its children blocks. You can declare the modal-header and modal-content blocks, described below, as children to create a modal with a header and footer. |
modal-header | Renders a close button and the blocks listed as its children, building a modal header. Note that it does not automatically render a header for your modal. Instead, you should create the modal header as you desire using the children list of this block. |
modal-content | Defines how the modal content will be rendered through its children blocks. Preferably, this block should be used along with the modal-header block in order to create a modal with a header and a footer. |
modal-actions | Logical block that only renders its child blocks that, in turn, render call-to-action buttons inside the modal, such as a confirmation button. |
modal-actions.close | Button that closes the modal when clicked. It is extremely useful when your modal only has a form or a disclaimer box providing information to the users. |
- Add the
modal-trigger
block in any store template you choose. In the example below, it will be added to the homepage:
_10{_10 "store.home": {_10 "children": [_10 "modal-trigger#example"_10 ]_10 },
- Declare the
modal-trigger
block using its prop and configure the children blocks. The first child block ofmodal-trigger
must be a block you choose to trigger the modal content. Then, a sibling block calledmodal-layout
will be needed to effectively define the modal content through its child block list. For example:
_21{_21 "store.home": {_21 "children": ["modal-trigger#example"]_21 },_21 "modal-trigger#example": {_21 "children": ["rich-text#example", "modal-layout#example"]_21 },_21 "rich-text#example": {_21 "props": {_21 "text": "Click me"_21 }_21 },_21 "modal-layout#example": {_21 "children": ["rich-text#modal-content"]_21 },_21 "rich-text#modal-content": {_21 "props": {_21 "text": "Hello"_21 }_21 }_21}
In the example above, the Rich Text block renders the Click me
text that will trigger the modal content when clicked. The modal content, in turn, is defined by the modal-layout
block. Based on the example above, the modal content triggered by the Click me
Rich Text would be a Hello
text.
