## Tabs

Divide data collections which are related yet belong to different types.

### Basic usage

Basic and concise tabs.

:::demo Tabs provide a selective card functionality. By default the first tab is selected as active, and you can activate any tab by setting the `value` attribute.

```html
<template>
  <el-tabs v-model="activeName" @tab-click="handleClick">
    <el-tab-pane label="User" name="first">User</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Config" name="second">Config</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Role" name="third">Role</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Task" name="fourth">Task</el-tab-pane>
  </el-tabs>
</template>
<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        activeName: 'first'
      };
    },
    methods: {
      handleClick(tab, event) {
        console.log(tab, event);
      }
    }
  };
</script>
```
:::

### Card Style

Tabs styled as cards.

:::demo Set `type` to `card` can get a card-styled tab.

```html
<template>
  <el-tabs type="card" @tab-click="handleClick">
    <el-tab-pane label="User">User</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Config">Config</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Role">Role</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Task">Task</el-tab-pane>
  </el-tabs>
</template>
<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        activeName: 'first'
      };
    },
    methods: {
      handleClick(tab, event) {
        console.log(tab, event);
      }
    }
  };
</script>
```
:::

### Border card

Border card tabs.

:::demo Set `type` to `border-card`.

```html
<el-tabs type="border-card">
  <el-tab-pane label="User">User</el-tab-pane>
  <el-tab-pane label="Config">Config</el-tab-pane>
  <el-tab-pane label="Role">Role</el-tab-pane>
  <el-tab-pane label="Task">Task</el-tab-pane>
</el-tabs>
```

You can use `tab-position` attribute to set the tab's position.

:::demo You can choose from four directions: `tabPosition="left|right|top|bottom"`

```html
<template>
  <el-radio-group v-model="tabPosition" style="margin-bottom: 30px;">
    <el-radio-button label="top">top</el-radio-button>
    <el-radio-button label="right">right</el-radio-button>
    <el-radio-button label="bottom">bottom</el-radio-button>
    <el-radio-button label="left">left</el-radio-button>
  </el-radio-group>

  <el-tabs :tab-position="tabPosition" style="height: 200px;">
    <el-tab-pane label="User">User</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Config">Config</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Role">Role</el-tab-pane>
    <el-tab-pane label="Task">Task</el-tab-pane>
  </el-tabs>
</template>
<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        tabPosition: 'left'
      };
    }
  };
</script>
```

:::demo
```html
<el-tabs type="border-card">
  <el-tab-pane>
    <template #label>
      <span><i class="el-icon-date"></i> Route</span>
    </template>
    Route
  </el-tab-pane>
  <el-tab-pane label="Config">Config</el-tab-pane>
  <el-tab-pane label="Role">Role</el-tab-pane>
  <el-tab-pane label="Task">Task</el-tab-pane>
</el-tabs>
```

          this.editableTabs.push({
            title: 'New Tab',
            name: newTabName,
            content: 'New Tab content'
          });

        }
        if (action === 'remove') {
          let tabs = this.editableTabs;
          let activeName = this.editableTabsValue;
          if (activeName === targetName) {
            tabs.forEach((tab, index) => {
              if (tab.name === targetName) {
                let nextTab = tabs[index + 1] || tabs[index - 1];
                if (nextTab) {
                  activeName = nextTab.name;
                }
              }
            });
          }
          
          this.editableTabsValue = activeName;
          this.editableTabs = tabs.filter(tab => tab.name !== targetName);
        }
      }
    }
  }

        this.editableTabsValue = newTabName;
      },
      removeTab(targetName) {
        let tabs = this.editableTabs;
        let activeName = this.editableTabsValue;
        if (activeName === targetName) {
          tabs.forEach((tab, index) => {
            if (tab.name === targetName) {
              let nextTab = tabs[index + 1] || tabs[index - 1];
              if (nextTab) {

            }
          });
