Add support to custom loaders?

[niightly]

do you have or intend to add support to custom loaders instead of the 3 predefined?

I have one on my own, and I want to use it instead of dots, spinners and things like that.

This is documented here https://github.com/ankurk91/vue-loading-overlay#vueloadingshowpropsdataslots

// Pass slots by their names
  default: this.$createElement('your-custom-loader-component-name'),

You can find the working example in examples folder as well.

This may be obvious to others with more Vue experience than me. Also, I'm using Nuxt, which may mean this is a bit different. But here's how I did it:

1. Create a new component that is some SVG you want for your loader. In my case it was a fully custom animation and graphic in the SVG, so I didn't need any custom props. e.g. in a LogoLoader.vue file:

   <template>
     <svg ...>
   </template>
   
   <script>
   export default {
     name: 'Logo',
   }
   </script>

2. Add the component in the page/template I was using it on:

   import LogoLoader from '~/components/LogoLoader.vue'
   
   export default {
     components: {
       Loader,
       LogoLoader,
     }
   }

3. Specify the custom loader via slot, in component use:

   <loading
     :active.sync="isLoading"
     :is-full-page="loader.fullPage"
   >
     <LogoLoader />
   </loading>
