Content/View loader for Laravel with Livewire

Installation

Requires:

• PHP version 8.1 or later
• Laravel version 10 or later
• Livewire version 3 or later
• AlpineJS

Via Composer:

composer require linuxstreet/wire-content-loader

Usage

Seamlessly integrate dynamic content into any part of your web page. By specifying a unique ID for each loader, you can ensure accurate and independent loading of content within multiple containers. This feature is particularly valuable for Single-Page Applications (SPAs) or when you need to dynamically load components for a more interactive user experience.

Place content loader with default ID

<livewire:content-loader/>

Set content loader ID to 'menu'

<livewire:content-loader id="menu"/>

Set ID to 'sidebar' and initially load Blade view into it.

<livewire:content-loader id="sidebar" view="my-blade-view"/>

Set ID to 'footer' and initially load Livewire component into it.

<livewire:content-loader id="footer" component="my-livewire-component"/>

Content loader is listening for 'content-load' browser event.

AlpineJS @click example:

<button x-data @click.throttle="$dispatch('content-load', [=PARAMS])">Show</button>

Params:

Mandatory:

• component: [string] - Name of the Livewire component to be loaded
• OR
• view: [string] - Name of the Blade view to be loaded

NOTE: If neither component or view is provided, Exception will be thrown.

Optional:

• forceReload: [true|false] - Use only when loading Livewire component. Forces component to re-render if called multiple times. (default: false)
• spinner: [true|false] - Enable/Disable loading spinner inside the loader while content is loading. (default: true)
• spinnerClass: [string] - Pass additional CSS classes to the loading spinner (default: '')
• target: [string] - Use only if multiple content loaders present on page. (default: 'main')
• hideWhileLoading: [true|false] - Show/hide content while re-loading the component.(default: false)
• params: [array] - Pass additional params to Component/View (default: [])

Examples:

Provide either 'component' or 'view' options like this:

{ component: 'livewire_component' }
{ view: 'blade_view' }

Here are some examples with optional params:

{ component: 'my-component', forceReload: true }
{ component: 'my-component', forceReload: true, hideWhileLoading: false }
{ component: 'my-component', forceReload: false, target: 'sidebar }
{ view: 'my-view', target: 'footer, spinner: false }
{ view: 'my-view', target: 'footer, spinner: false, params: { id: 5 } }

Examples with HTML button element using AlpineJS:

<button x-data @click.throttle="$dispatch('content-load', [{ component: 'my-component', forceReload: true }] )">Show</button>
<button x-data @click.throttle="$dispatch('content-load', [{ component: 'my-component', forceReload: true, hideWhileLoading: false }] )">Show</button>
<button x-data @click.throttle="$dispatch('content-load', [{ component: 'my-component', forceReload: true, params: { id: 1 } }] )">Show</button>
