onLongPress

Listen for a long press on an element. Returns a stop function.

Usage

<script setup lang="ts">
import { onLongPress } from '@vueuse/core'
import { shallowRef, useTemplateRef } from 'vue'

const htmlRefHook = useTemplateRef('htmlRefHook')
const longPressedHook = shallowRef(false)

function onLongPressCallbackHook(e: PointerEvent) {
  longPressedHook.value = true
}
function resetHook() {
  longPressedHook.value = false
}

onLongPress(
  htmlRefHook,
  onLongPressCallbackHook,
  {
    modifiers: {
      prevent: true
    }
  }
)
</script>

<template>
  <p>Long Pressed: {{ longPressedHook }}</p>

  <button ref="htmlRefHook" class="ml-2 button small">
    Press long
  </button>

  <button class="ml-2 button small" @click="resetHook">
    Reset
  </button>
</template>

Custom Delay

By default, the handler fires after 500ms. You can customize this with the delay option. It can be a number or a function that receives the PointerEvent.

import { onLongPress } from '@vueuse/core'

// Fixed delay
onLongPress(target, handler, { delay: 1000 })

// Dynamic delay based on event
onLongPress(target, handler, {
  delay: ev => ev.pointerType === 'touch' ? 800 : 500,
})

Distance Threshold

The long press will be canceled if the pointer moves more than the threshold (default: 10 pixels). Set to false to disable movement detection.

import { onLongPress } from '@vueuse/core'

// Custom threshold
onLongPress(target, handler, { distanceThreshold: 20 })

// Disable movement detection
onLongPress(target, handler, { distanceThreshold: false })

On Mouse Up Callback

You can provide an onMouseUp callback to be notified when the pointer is released.

import { onLongPress } from '@vueuse/core'

onLongPress(target, handler, {
  onMouseUp(duration, distance, isLongPress) {
    console.log(`Held for ${duration}ms, moved ${distance}px, long press: ${isLongPress}`)
  },
})

Modifiers

The following modifiers are available:

Modifier Description
stop Calls event.stopPropagation()
once Removes event listener after first trigger
prevent Calls event.preventDefault()
capture Uses capture mode for event listener
self Only trigger if target is the element itself
onLongPress(target, handler, {
  modifiers: {
    prevent: true,
    stop: true,
  },
})

Component Usage

<script setup lang="ts">
import { OnLongPress } from '@vueuse/components'
import { shallowRef } from 'vue'

const longPressedComponent = shallowRef(false)

function onLongPressCallbackComponent(e: PointerEvent) {
  longPressedComponent.value = true
}
function resetComponent() {
  longPressedComponent.value = false
}
</script>

<template>
  <p>Long Pressed: {{ longPressedComponent }}</p>

  <OnLongPress
    as="button"
    class="ml-2 button small"
    @trigger="onLongPressCallbackComponent"
  >
    Press long
  </OnLongPress>

  <button class="ml-2 button small" @click="resetComponent">
    Reset
  </button>
</template>

Directive Usage

<script setup lang="ts">
import { vOnLongPress } from '@vueuse/components'
import { shallowRef } from 'vue'

const longPressedDirective = shallowRef(false)

function onLongPressCallbackDirective(e: PointerEvent) {
  longPressedDirective.value = true
}
function resetDirective() {
  longPressedDirective.value = false
}
</script>

<template>
  <p>Long Pressed: {{ longPressedDirective }}</p>

  <button
    v-on-long-press.prevent="onLongPressCallbackDirective"
    class="ml-2 button small"
  >
    Press long
  </button>

  <button
    v-on-long-press="[onLongPressCallbackDirective, { delay: 1000, modifiers: { stop: true } }]"
    class="ml-2 button small"
  >
    Press long (with options)
  </button>

  <button class="ml-2 button small" @click="resetDirective">
    Reset
  </button>
</template>
