## Installation

> [!TIP]
> Looking for a nuxt version?
> [Nuxt version (Special thanks to BayBreezy)](https://github.com/BayBreezy/nuxt-tour)

> [!CAUTION]
> As of version 2.0.1, VueJS Tour has been rewritten in TypeScript. The `VTour` component is now a named export and must be imported as such.

<ins>If you still want to use the old version, then this is the correct way to install it:</ins>

* Step 1: Go to your project directory and install VueJS Tour using npm:

```bash
cd my-project
npm install @globalhive/vuejs-tour
```

* Step 2: Import the plugin in your application entry point (typically `main.js`):

```javascript
import { createApp } from "vue";
import App from "./App.vue";
import VueJsTour from '@globalhive/vuejs-tour';
import '@globalhive/vuejs-tour/dist/style.css';

const app = createApp(App)
  .use(VueJsTour)
  .mount("#app");
```
Everything is ready! Now you can use VueJS Tour in your application.<br>
Make sure to check out the [documentation](https://globalhive.github.io/vuejs-tour/) for more information.

## Create a tour

Add the VueJS Tour component anywhere in your app. It is recommended to add it to `App.vue`
and create the required steps using `<script setup>` syntax.

```vue
<template>
  <div>
    <div id="selectByID">Selected by its id 'selectByID'</div>
    <p class="selectByClass">Telected by its class 'selectByClass'</p>
    <button data-step="3">Selected by the 'data-step="3"' attribute</button>

    <VTour :steps="steps"/>
  </div>
</template>

<script setup>
const steps = [
  {
    target: '#selectByID',
    content: 'This is the first step',
  },
  {
    target: '.selectByClass',
    content: 'This is the second step, placed on the bottom of the target',
    placement: 'bottom',
  },
  {
    target: '[data-step="3"]',
    content: 'This is the third step',
  }
];
</script>
```


## Start the tour

To start the tour, you can use the `autoStart` prop...

```vue
<template>
  <div>
    <div id="selectByID">Selected by its id 'selectByID'</div>
    <p class="selectByClass">Telected by its class 'selectByClass'</p>
    <button data-step="3">Selected by the 'data-step="3"' attribute</button>

    <VTour :steps="steps" autoStart/>
  </div>
</template>

<script setup>
const steps = [...];
</script>
```

...or call the `startTour()` method on the component instance.

```vue
<template>
  <div>
    <div id="selectByID">Selected by its id 'selectByID'</div>
    <p class="selectByClass">Telected by its class 'selectByClass'</p>
    <button data-step="3">Selected by the 'data-step="3"' attribute</button>

    <VTour ref="tour" :steps="steps"/>
  </div>
</template>

<script setup>
import { ref, onMounted } from 'vue';
const tour = ref(null);

const steps = [...];

onMounted(() => {
  tour.value.startTour();
});
</script>
```

The `target` property of the step object can be any valid [CSS selector](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Selectors).
