Chip

An indicator of a numeric value or a state.

Usage

Wrap any component with a Chip to display an indicator.

<template>
  <UChip>
    <UButton icon="i-lucide-mail" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />
  </UChip>
</template>

Color

Use the color prop to change the color of the Chip.

<template>
  <UChip color="neutral">
    <UButton icon="i-lucide-mail" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />
  </UChip>
</template>

Size

Use the size prop to change the size of the Chip.

<template>
  <UChip size="3xl">
    <UButton icon="i-lucide-mail" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />
  </UChip>
</template>

Text

Use the text prop to set the text of the Chip.

5
<template>
  <UChip :text="5" size="3xl">
    <UButton icon="i-lucide-mail" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />
  </UChip>
</template>

Position

Use the position prop to change the position of the Chip.

<template>
  <UChip position="bottom-left">
    <UButton icon="i-lucide-mail" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />
  </UChip>
</template>

Inset

Use the inset prop to display the Chip inside the component. This is useful when dealing with rounded components.

<template>
  <UChip inset>
    <UAvatar src="https://github.com/benjamincanac.png" />
  </UChip>
</template>

Standalone

Use the standalone prop alongside the inset prop to display the Chip inline.

<template>
  <UChip standalone inset />
</template>
It's used this way in the CommandPalette, InputMenu, Select or SelectMenu components for example.

Examples

Control visibility

You can control the visibility of the Chip using the show prop.

<script setup lang="ts">
const statuses = ['online', 'away', 'busy', 'offline']
const status = ref(statuses[0])

const color = computed(() => status.value ? { online: 'success', away: 'warning', busy: 'error', offline: 'neutral' }[status.value] as any : 'online')

const show = computed(() => status.value !== 'offline')

// Note: This is for demonstration purposes only. Don't do this at home.
onMounted(() => {
  setInterval(() => {
    if (status.value) {
      status.value = statuses[(statuses.indexOf(status.value) + 1) % statuses.length]
    }
  }, 1000)
})
</script>

<template>
  <UChip :color="color" :show="show" inset>
    <UAvatar src="https://github.com/benjamincanac.png" />
  </UChip>
</template>
In this example, the Chip has a color per status and is displayed when the status is not offline.
