    Button

Use the variant prop to change the visual style of the CButton. You can set the value to solid, ghost, outline, or link.

Button with Icon#

You can add left and right icons to the Button component. See how to add icons to your project.

Editable Example
<c-button-group :spacing="4">
  <c-button left-icon="email" variant-color="blue" variant="solid">
    Email

    Call us
  </c-button>
</c-button-group>    

Button loading state#

Pass isLoading prop to the Button component to show its loading state. You can optionally pass loadingText prop, if you do, the button will show a spinner and the loading text. Otherwise, the button will take the width of the text label and show only the spinner.

Editable Example
<c-button-group :spacing="4">
  <c-button isLoading variant-color="blue" variant="solid">
    Email
  </c-button>
  <c-button
    is-loading
    loading-text="Submitting"
    variant-color="blue"
    variant="outline"
  >
    Submit
  </c-button>
</c-button-group>    

Accessibility#

  • CButton has role button.
  • When CButton has focus, space and enter activate it.

Composition#

CButton composes CPseudobox and all props (variant, variantColor, etc.) are converted to style props. This means you can override any style of the CButton via props.

Editable Example
//  The size prop affects the height of the button
//  but I can still override it by passing a custom height

  <c-button size="md" height="50px" width="250px" border="2px" border-color="green.500">
    Button
  </c-button>    

Custom Button#

In the event you need to make your own custom button, you can leverage the PseudoBox component. It provides the hover, focus, active and disabled style props to style the button.

Editable Example
<c-pseudo-box
  as="button"
  height="24px"
  line-height="1.2"
  transition="all 0.2s cubic-bezier(.08,.52,.52,1)"
  border="1px"
  px="8px"
  rounded="2px"
  fontSize="14px"
  font-weight="semibold"
  bg="#f5f6f7"
  border-color="#ccd0d5"
  color="#4b4f56"
  :_active="{ bg: 'tomato' }"
>
  Join Group
</c-pseudo-box>
