Vue 3 package for showing a loader while an image loading with default using skeleton loader.

Importing

import 'vue3-loader-image/dist/style.css'
</script>

Or use option api.

<script lang="ts">
import { defineComponent } from 'vue'
import VueLoaderImage from 'vue3-loader-image';
import 'vue3-loader-image/dist/style.css'

export default defineComponent({
  components: {
      VueLoaderImage
  }
})
</script>

Example

By default this package uses a skeleton loader, and there are 3 props that must be filled in, they are src, width, and height

<VueLoaderImage src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1439066615861-d1af74d74000" width="300px" height="300px"></VueLoaderImage>

We can use delay props to increase the time the image will be displayed, because sometimes the loader doesn't come out because the internet speed is good during the loading process or image was cached.

<VueLoaderImage delay="4000" src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1439066615861-d1af74d74000?q=80&w=1973" width="300px" height="300px"></VueLoaderImage>

That's will be show image after image loaded plus 4 second.

Beside skeleton loader you also can use custom css loader like using slot like this.

<template>
<VueLoaderImage delay="4000" src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1439066615861-d1af74d74000?q=80&w=1973" width="300px" height="300px">
  <div class="loader"/>
</VueLoaderImage>
</template>
<style>
.loader {
    // loader css animation & style here
}
</style>
