MudBlazor - Blazor Component Library

Note

The Dialog is dependant on IDialogService and MudDialogProvider

Check the Installation page for instructions regarding default setup.

Usage

Suppose you define a MudDialog in TermsOfServiceDialog.razor. To show the dialog you simply call:

DialogService.Show<TermsOfServiceDialog>("Terms");

The advantage of having the dialog in its own Razor component is obviously the ability to reuse it throughout your code-base. You can pass parameters to your dialog on show which allow you to load the dialog with custom data.

Note: Even though it is technically possible to show any razor component as a dialog it is highly recommended to use a <MudDialog> as the top-level of your dialogs!

@inject IDialogService DialogService


<MudButton @onclick="OpenDialog" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary">
    Open Simple Dialog
</MudButton>

@code {

    private void OpenDialog()
    {
        var options = new DialogOptions { CloseOnEscapeKey = true };
        DialogService.Show<DialogUsageExample_Dialog>("Simple Dialog", options);
    }
}

Configuration

The dialog's default behavior can be changed in two ways, either globally with parameters in the <MudDialogProvider/> or pass down the DialogOptions class when you open the dialog.

Global Settings

In the file where you added <MudDialogProvider/>, we can pass down different options as parameters. See installation page for more information regarding this.

<MudDialogProvider
    FullWidth="true"
    MaxWidth="MaxWidth.ExtraSmall"
    CloseButton="true"
    DisableBackdropClick="true"
    NoHeader="true"
    Position="DialogPosition.Center"
    CloseOnEscapeKey="true"
/>

Per Dialog

Below we pass along the DialogOptions class when we open the dialog, this can be done per dialog or you can predefine a bunch of them that you use for specific cases in your system.

@inject IDialogService Dialog

<MudButton OnClick="@((e) => OpenDialog(maxWidth))">Open MaxWidth Dialog</MudButton>
<MudButton OnClick="@((e) => OpenDialog(closeButton))" Color="Color.Primary">Close Button Dialog</MudButton>
<MudButton OnClick="@((e) => OpenDialog(noHeader))" Color="Color.Secondary">No header Dialog</MudButton>
<MudButton OnClick="@((e) => OpenDialog(disableBackdropClick))" Color="Color.Tertiary">Disable backdrop dialog</MudButton>
<MudButton OnClick="@((e) => OpenDialog(fullScreen))" Color="Color.Info">Full Screen Dialog</MudButton>
<MudButton OnClick="@((e) => OpenDialog(topCenter))" Color="Color.Success">Top Center Dialog</MudButton>

@code {
    DialogOptions maxWidth = new DialogOptions() { MaxWidth = MaxWidth.Medium, FullWidth = true };
    DialogOptions closeButton = new DialogOptions() { CloseButton = true };
    DialogOptions noHeader = new DialogOptions() {  NoHeader = true };
    DialogOptions disableBackdropClick = new DialogOptions() { DisableBackdropClick = true };
    DialogOptions fullScreen = new DialogOptions() { FullScreen = true, CloseButton = true };
    DialogOptions topCenter = new DialogOptions() { Position = DialogPosition.TopCenter };

    private void OpenDialog(DialogOptions options)
    {
        Dialog.Show<DialogUsageExample_Dialog>("Custom Options Dialog", options);
    }
}

From dialog

The title and the options can also be modified from the dialog component itself by calling SetTitle and SetOptions on the MudDialogInstance object.

@inject IDialogService DialogService

<MudButton OnClick="OpenDialog" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary">
    Options Dialog
</MudButton>

@code {

    private void OpenDialog()
    {
        DialogService.Show<DialogSetOptionsExample_Dialog>("Options Dialog");
    }
}

Templating and Passing Simple Data

In this section, we will demonstrate how you can build one dialog and reuse it for multiple purposes.

@inject IDialogService DialogService


<MudButton @onclick="DeleteUser" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Error">Delete Records</MudButton>
<MudButton @onclick="Confirm" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Success">Remove Email</MudButton>
<MudButton @onclick="Download" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Warning">Slow Computer</MudButton>

@code {

    private void DeleteUser()
    {
        var parameters = new DialogParameters<DialogTemplateExample_Dialog>();
        parameters.Add(x => x.ContentText, "Do you really want to delete these records? This process cannot be undone.");
        parameters.Add(x => x.ButtonText, "Delete");
        parameters.Add(x => x.Color, Color.Error);

        var options = new DialogOptions() { CloseButton = true, MaxWidth = MaxWidth.ExtraSmall };

        DialogService.Show<DialogTemplateExample_Dialog>("Delete", parameters, options);
    }

    private void Confirm()
    {
        var parameters = new DialogParameters<DialogTemplateExample_Dialog>();
        parameters.Add(x => x.ContentText, "Are you sure you want to remove thisguy@emailz.com from this account?");
        parameters.Add(x => x.ButtonText, "Yes");
        parameters.Add(x => x.Color, Color.Success);

        DialogService.Show<DialogTemplateExample_Dialog>("Confirm", parameters);
    }

    private void Download()
    {
        var parameters = new DialogParameters<DialogTemplateExample_Dialog>();
        parameters.Add(x => x.ContentText, "Your computer seems very slow, click the download button to download free RAM.");
        parameters.Add(x => x.ButtonText, "Download");
        parameters.Add(x => x.Color, Color.Info);

        DialogService.Show<DialogTemplateExample_Dialog>("Slow Computer Detected", parameters);
    }
}

Passing Data

Here is a little more advanced use case. We will use the same dialog but feed it with different server data and then mimic a delete operation.

Server1

Server2

Server3

Server4

@using MudBlazor.Examples.Data.Models

@inject IDialogService DialogService

<div class="d-flex flex-wrap">
    @foreach (var item in Servers)
    {
        <MudPaper Class="d-flex align-center pa-2 mx-2 my-2">
            <MudText>@item.Name</MudText>
            <MudButton Variant="Variant.Text" Color="Color.Error" OnClick="@((e) => DeleteServer(item))">Delete</MudButton>
        </MudPaper>
    }
</div>

@code {

    async Task DeleteServer(Server server)
    {
        var parameters = new DialogParameters<DialogPassingDataExample_Dialog> { { x => x.server, server } };

        var dialog = await DialogService.ShowAsync<DialogPassingDataExample_Dialog>("Delete Server", parameters);
        var result = await dialog.Result;

        if (!result.Canceled)
        {
            //In a real world scenario we would reload the data from the source here since we "removed" it in the dialog already.
            Guid.TryParse(result.Data.ToString(), out Guid deletedServer);
            Servers.RemoveAll(item => item.Id == deletedServer);
        }
    }

    //Pretend we are loading this data from a database or API
    public List<Server> Servers { get; } = new List<Server>
    {
        new Server{ Id = Guid.NewGuid(), Name = "Server1", Location = "Denmark", IpAddress = "193.254.123.1" },
        new Server{ Id = Guid.NewGuid(), Name = "Server2", Location = "Sweden", IpAddress = "127.0.0.1" },
        new Server{ Id = Guid.NewGuid(), Name = "Server3", Location = "Russia", IpAddress = "173.164.2.1" },
        new Server{ Id = Guid.NewGuid(), Name = "Server4", Location = "Germany", IpAddress = "193.168.1.1" },
    };
}

Scrollable Dialog

Quick example on how to give your dialog scrollable content.

@inject IDialogService DialogService

<MudButton OnClick="OpenDialog" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary">
    Scrollable Dialog
</MudButton>

@code {
    bool license_accepted = false;

    async Task OpenDialog()
    {
        var result = await DialogService.Show<DialogScrollableExample_Dialog>("MudBlazor License").Result;

        if (!result.Canceled)
        {
            license_accepted = (bool)(result.Data ?? false);
        }
    }
}

Blurry Dialog

Dialog background can be changed via ClassBackground dialog option.

@inject IDialogService DialogService


<MudButton @onclick="OpenDialog" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary">
    Open Simple Dialog
</MudButton>

<style>
    .my-custom-class {
        backdrop-filter: blur(10px);
    }
</style>

@code {

    private void OpenDialog()
    {
        var options = new DialogOptions { ClassBackground = "my-custom-class" };
        DialogService.Show<DialogBlurryExample_Dialog>("Simple Dialog", options);
    }
}

Inlining Dialog

You can inline MudDialog directly in another component which, of course, makes most sense for small dialogs that are not re-used somewhere else. The advantage is that you can easily share code and data between dialog and owning component via bindings.
This example also shows how to override the dialog title with a render fragment.

<div class="d-flex">
    <MudButton OnClick="OpenDialog" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary">
        Edit rating
    </MudButton>
    <MudRating SelectedValue="rating" Disabled="true" Class="mt-1 ml-3" />
</div>

<MudDialog @bind-IsVisible="visible" Options="dialogOptions">
    <TitleContent>
        <MudText Typo="Typo.h6">
            <MudIcon Icon="@Icons.Material.Filled.Edit" Class="mr-3" /> Edit rating
        </MudText>
    </TitleContent>
    <DialogContent>
        <p>How awesome are inline dialogs?</p>
        <MudRating @bind-SelectedValue="rating" Class="mt-3" />
    </DialogContent>
    <DialogActions>
        <MudButton Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary" OnClick="Submit" Class="px-10">Close</MudButton>
    </DialogActions>
</MudDialog>

@code {
    private bool visible;
    private int rating;
    private void OpenDialog() => visible = true;
    void Submit() => visible = false;

    private DialogOptions dialogOptions = new() { FullWidth = true };
}

Nested Inline Dialogs

You can inline a MudDialog within another MudDialog, even in another inline dialog. This example shows both ways of nesting an inline dialog.

@inject IDialogService DialogService

<MudButton Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary" OnClick="Open">Open Inline</MudButton>
<MudButton Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary" OnClick="Open2">Open With Show</MudButton>

@*Outer inline dialog*@
<MudDialog @bind-IsVisible="visible">
    <DialogContent>
        <MudText>Hi There, I'm an inline dialog!</MudText>
        <MudButton Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Tertiary" OnClick="OpenNested">Open Nested</MudButton>
        @*Nested inline dialog*@
        <MudDialog @bind-IsVisible="nestedVisible">
            <DialogContent>
                <MudText Class="nested">Nested inline dialog!</MudText>
            </DialogContent>
            <DialogActions>
                <MudButton Color="Color.Primary" OnClick="CloseNested">Close</MudButton>
            </DialogActions>
        </MudDialog>
    </DialogContent>
    <DialogActions>
        <MudButton Color="Color.Primary" OnClick="Close">Close</MudButton>
    </DialogActions>
</MudDialog>

@code {
    private bool visible;
    private bool nestedVisible;

    private void Open() => visible = true;
    private void Close() => visible = false;
    private void OpenNested() => nestedVisible = true;
    private void CloseNested() => nestedVisible = false;

    @*Open a non-inline dialog component that nests an inline dialog*@
    private void Open2() => DialogService.Show<DialogNestedInlineExample_Dialog>();
}

Nested Dialogs and Cancel All

It is possible to open multiple dialogs at the same time.
This example also shows how to open a second dialog and cancel all dialogs at once.

@inject IDialogService DialogService

<MudButton @onclick="OpenDialog" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary">
    Open Simple Dialog
</MudButton>

@code {
    private void OpenDialog()
    {
        var options = new DialogOptions { CloseOnEscapeKey = true };
        var dialog = DialogService.Show<DialogNestedExample_Dialog>("First Level Dialog", options);
    }
}

Keyboard Navigation

MudDialog accepts keys to keyboard navigation.

Escape key to close dialog. Closing a dialog by pressing escape has to be enabled by setting option CloseOnEscapekey=true

@inject IDialogService DialogService


<MudButton @onclick="OpenDialog" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary">
    Open Dialog
</MudButton>

@code {

    private void OpenDialog()
    {    
        DialogOptions closeOnEscapeKey = new DialogOptions() { CloseOnEscapeKey = true };

        DialogService.Show<DialogKeyboardNavigationExample_Dialog>("Simple Dialog", closeOnEscapeKey);
    }
}

Focus Trap

Dialog uses the FocusTrap-Component to keep the keyboard-focus within. By default, the first element is focused With DefaultFocus you can change the behaviour to, for example, focus the last element.

@inject IDialogService DialogService


<MudButton @onclick="OpenDialog" Variant="Variant.Filled" Color="Color.Primary">
    Open Dialog
</MudButton>

@code {

    private void OpenDialog()
    {
        var options = new DialogOptions { CloseOnEscapeKey = true };
        DialogService.Show<DialogFocusExample_Dialog>("Last element focused", options);
    }
}
