Handle Bootstrap modal hide event in Vue JS

Is there a decent way in Vue (2) to handle a Bootstrap (3) modal hide-event?

I found this as a JQuery way but I can't figure out how to capture this event in Vue:

$('#myModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
  // do something…
})

Adding something like v-on:hide.bs.modal="alert('hide') doesn't seem to work.

Solution

  • Bootstrap uses JQuery to trigger the custom event hidden.bs.modal so it is not easily caught by Vue (which I believe uses native events under the hood).

    Since you have to have JQuery on a the page to use Bootstrap's native modal, just use JQuery to catch it. Assuming you add a ref="vuemodal" to your Bootstrap modal you can do something like this.

    new Vue({
  el:"#app",
  data:{
  },
  methods:{
    doSomethingOnHidden(){
      //do something
    }
  },
  mounted(){
    $(this.$refs.vuemodal).on("hidden.bs.modal", this.doSomethingOnHidden)
  }
})

    Working example.
