Difference with usage

Directive and the only difference in the use of the Component:

• component find Swiper instance by ref attribute.
• directive find Swiper instance by directive arg.

Other configurations, events are the same.

The effect of the two ways and the difference in the applicable environment is here.

Component

<template>
  <swiper ref="mySwiper" :options="swiperOptions">
    <swiper-slide>Slide 1</swiper-slide>
    <swiper-slide>Slide 2</swiper-slide>
    <swiper-slide>Slide 3</swiper-slide>
    <swiper-slide>Slide 4</swiper-slide>
    <swiper-slide>Slide 5</swiper-slide>
    <div class="swiper-pagination" slot="pagination"></div>
  </swiper>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    name: 'carrousel',
    data() {
      return {
        swiperOptions: {
          pagination: {
            el: '.swiper-pagination'
          },
          // Some Swiper option/callback...
        }
      }
    },
    computed: {
      swiper() {
        return this.$refs.mySwiper.$swiper
      }
    },
    mounted() {
      console.log('Current Swiper instance object', this.swiper)
      this.swiper.slideTo(3, 1000, false)
    }
  }
</script>

Directive

<template>
  <div v-swiper:mySwiper="swiperOption">
    <div class="swiper-wrapper">
      <div class="swiper-slide" :key="banner" v-for="banner in banners">
        <img :src="banner">
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="swiper-pagination"></div>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data () {
      return {
        banners: [ '/1.jpg', '/2.jpg', '/3.jpg' ],
        swiperOption: {
          pagination: {
            el: '.swiper-pagination'
          },
          // ...
        }
      }
    },
    mounted() {
      console.log('Current Swiper instance object', this.mySwiper)
      this.mySwiper.slideTo(3, 1000, false)
    }
  }
</script>

Swiper component API

<!-- All events/props support camelCase or kebab-case. -->
<swiper
  :options="swiperOptionsObject"
  :auto-update="true"
  :auto-destroy="true"
  :delete-instance-on-destroy="true"
  :cleanup-styles-on-destroy="true"
  @ready="handleSwiperReadied"
  @click-slide="handleClickSlide"
/>

<!-- vue-awesome-swiper converts all Swiper events into component/directive events, e.g.: -->
<swiper
  @slide-change-transition-start="onSwiperSlideChangeTransitionStart"
  @slideChangeTransitionStart="onSwiperSlideChangeTransitionStart"
  @slideChangeTransitionEnd="..."
  @transitionStart="..."
  ...
/>

interface IProps {
  // Auto update swiper when vue component `updated`
  autoUpdate?: boolean // default: true
  // Auto destroy swiper when vue component 'beforeDestroy'
  autoDestroy?: boolean // default: true

  // swiper.destroy's params
  // swiper.destroy(deleteInstanceOnDestroy, cleanupStylesOnDestroy)
  deleteInstanceOnDestroy?: boolean // default: true
  cleanupStylesOnDestroy?: boolean // default: true
}

// `@ready` event will emit when the Swiper instance mounted
function handleSwiperReadied(swiper: Swiper) {
  console.log('Swiper was munted!', swiper)
}

// `@click-slide` event has special treatment for Swiper's loop mode, which is still available in loop mode
function handleClickSlide(index: number, reallyIndex: number | null) {
  console.log('Click slide!', index, reallyIndex)
}

Swiper directive API

Based on the exact same as the component API.

In the directive mode, the Swiper instance will be mounted in the parent's component context use the default name$swiper. In order to implement multiple swipers in a context, the directive has an additional name called instanceName API, through this API, you can easily control the name of each swiper mount context.

<div v-swiper="swiperOptionsObject" />
<div v-swiper:secondSwiper="swiperOptionsObject" />
<div v-swiper:[dynamicSwiperName]="swiperOptionsObject" />
<div v-swiper="swiperOptionsObject" instance-name="fourthSwiper" />

export dafault {
  data() {
    return {
      dynamicSwiperName: 'thirdSwiper'
    }
  },
  mounted() {
    console.log('Swiper instances:', this.$swiper, this.secondSwiper, this.thirdSwiper, this.fourthSwiper)
  }
}

Swiper API
