PrimeVue

PrimeVue is available at npm, if you have an existing application run the following commands to download PrimeVue and PrimeIcons to your project.

npm install primevue --save
npm install primeicons --save

Module Loader

This is the recommended way if your application uses vue-cli or has a webpack based build with vue-loader configured. Import the components as .vue files for seamless integration within your project where path of each component is available at the "import" section of a component documentation.

//import {ComponentName} from 'primevue/{componentname}';

import {Dialog} from 'primevue/dialog';

In the next step, register the component with the tag name you'd like to use.

Vue.component('Dialog', Dialog);

Then you'll be able to utilize the component in your application.

<Dialog></Dialog>

Script Tag

Other alternative is utilizing the components directly within the browser with UMD packages.

<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>calendar demo</title>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/primevue/components/calendar/calendar.umd.js"></script>

<div id="app">
  <p-calendar></p-calendar>
</div>

<script>
new Vue({
  components: {
    'p-calendar': calendar
  }
}).$mount('#app')
</script>

Dependencies

Majority of PrimeVue components (95%) are native and there are some exceptions having 3rd party dependencies such as Quill for Editor.

In addition, components require PrimeIcons library for icons.

dependencies: {
    "vue": "^2.6.10",
    "primeicons": "^1.0.0"
}

Here is the list of components with 3rd party dependencies.

Component	Dependency
Charts	Charts.js 2.1.x+
Editor	Quill.js 1.3.3+
FullCalendar	FullCalendar 4.0.2+
PrimeFlex	DataView

Styles

The css dependencies are as follows, note that you may change the theme with another one of your choice. If you are using a bundler such as webpack with a css loader you may import them to your main application component.

primevue/resources/themes/nova-light/theme.css      //theme
primevue/resources/primevue.min.css                 //shared css
primeicons/primeicons.css                           //icons
