Optional configurations

*in this snippet all settings has its default value. No need to specify them unless you want to change default behavior. Unfortunately if you used CDN way to include plugin you can't set up these options, but still can set them up inline.

const vueImgConfig = {
  // Use `alt` attribute as gallery slide title
  altAsTitle: false,
  // Display 'download' button near 'close' that opens source image in new tab
  sourceButton: false,
  // Event listener to open gallery will be applied to <img> element
  openOn: 'click',
  // Show thumbnails for all groups with more than 1 image
  thumbnails: false,
}
Vue.use(VueImg, vueImgConfig);
