A fast, composable, unstyled
Command
+K
interface (Command Palette) for Vue.
Command palette interfaces are used to create a web experience where users can quickly get in charge with keyboard shortcuts, rather than using the mouse.
With macOS's Spotlight
and Raycast
's command palette experience in mind, vue-command-palette
is designed to provide a fast, composable, unstyled command palette to your site.
TOC
- 🧩 Compound Component + Namespaced Components Design
- 💄 Completely unstyled, but more customizable
- 🔍 Fuzzy search support to find relevant command
- ⌨️ keyboard shortcut support to bind custom keybindings to your command
yarn add vue-command-palette
# or
pnpm add vue-command-palette
Then you can import the Command
Compound Component in your project.
<script lang="ts" setup>
import { ref } from 'vue'
import { Command } from 'vue-command-palette'
</script>
<template>
<Command theme="custom">
<Command.Input placeholder="Type a command or search..." />
<Command.List>
<Command.Empty>No results found.</Command.Empty>
<Command.Group heading="Letters">
<Command.Item>a</Command.Item>
<Command.Item>b</Command.Item>
<Command.Separator />
<Command.Item>c</Command.Item>
</Command.Group>
<Command.Item>Apple</Command.Item>
</Command.List>
</Command>
</template>
<style>
// import your custom css
@import '~/assets/css/custom.css';
</style>
or in a dialog:
<script lang="ts" setup>
import { ref } from 'vue'
import { Command } from 'vue-command-palette'
const visible = ref(false)
</script>
<template>
<Command.Dialog :visible="visible" theme="custom">
<template #header>
<Command.Input placeholder="Type a command or search..." />
</template>
<template #body>
<Command.List>
<Command.Empty>No results found.</Command.Empty>
<Command.Group heading="Letters">
<Command.Item>a</Command.Item>
<Command.Item>b</Command.Item>
<Command.Separator />
<Command.Item>c</Command.Item>
</Command.Group>
<Command.Item>Apple</Command.Item>
</Command.List>
</template>
</Command.Dialog>
</template>
<style>
// import your custom css
@import '~/assets/css/custom.css';
</style>
Do I have to use command + K? No, it's just a convention that you can use any key binding to perform the Command Palette.
Tips, we use
@vueuse/core
to bind the keybindings
<script lang="ts" setup>
import { watch } from 'vue'
import { useMagicKeys } from '@vueuse/core'
const keys = useMagicKeys()
const CmdK = keys['Meta+K']
watch(CmdK, (v) => {
if (v) {
console.log('Meta + K has been pressed')
// do your own logic, maybe make dialog visible
}
})
</script>
Name | Description | Parameters |

All namespaced components have a specific data-attribute
starting with command-
that can be used for styling.
eg:

background: #ffffff;
}
Command.Dialog

.

CSS variable.
With Namespaced components, You can use component tags with dots like <Foo.Bar>
to refer to components nested under object properties. This is useful when you import multiple components from a single file.

props to set your own style.
<Command theme="custom">
<!-- Contains other namespaced components -->
</Command>

v-for="item in items"
:data-value="item.label"
:shortcut="item.shortcut"
