Usage

Modal Views

Make a Livewire component you want to show as a modal. The view for this component must use the Bootstrap modal-dialog container:

<div>
        <div class="modal-header">
            <h5 class="modal-title">Modal title</h5>
            <button type="button" class="btn-close" wire:click="$dispatch('hideModal')" aria-label="Close"></button>
        </div>
        <div class="modal-body">
            <p>Modal body text goes here.</p>
        </div>
        <div class="modal-footer">
            <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary"  wire:click="$dispatch('hideModal')">Close</button>
            <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
        </div>
</div>
 

Showing Modals

Show a modal by emitting the showModal event with the component alias:

<button type="button" wire:click="$dispatch('showModal', {data: {'alias' : 'livewire.modal.user','params' :{'user':'Ali Qasemzadeh'}}})">
    {{ __('Update Profile') }}
</button>

Mount Parameters

Pass parameters to the component mount method after the alias:

<button type="button"wire:click="$dispatch('showModal', {data: {'alias' : 'livewire.modal.user','params' :{'user':'Ali Qasemzadeh'}}})">
    {{ __('Update User #' . $user->id) }}
</button>

The component mount method for the example above would look like this:

namespace App\Http\Livewire\Users;

use App\Models\User;
use Livewire\Component;

class Update extends Component
{
    public $user;
    
    public function mount(User $user)
    {
        $this->user = $user;
    }
    
    public function render()
    {
        return view('users.update');
    }
}

Hiding Modals

Hide the currently open modal by emitting the hideModal event:

<button type="button" wire:click="$dispatch('hideModal')">
    {{ __('Close') }}
</button>

Dismissing Modals

You can emit events inside your views:

<button type="button" wire:click="$dispatch('hideModal')">
    {{ __('Close') }}
</button>

Or inside your components, just like any normal Livewire event:

public function save()
{
    $this->validate();

    // save the record

    $this->dispatch('hideModal');
}

Custom modal size

Now you can have custom modal size by default we use modal-lg:

<button type="button"wire:click="$dispatch('showModal', {data: {'alias' : 'livewire.modal.user','size' :'modal-xl')">
  {{ __('Show XL Modal') }}
</button>

Publishing Assets

Custom View

Use your own modals view by publishing the package view:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=livewire-bootstrap-modal:views

Now edit the view file inside resources/views/vendor/livewire-bootstrap-modal. The package will use this view to render the component.

Notes

1- You should use button or @click in main slot.

2- We are working hard on some problems, We hope fix them soon.

3- We will add some options soon.

4- wire:navigate not work (just first modal open).
