## Description
A composable which returns the loading state of the page. Used by [`<NuxtLoadingIndicator>`](/docs/api/components/nuxt-loading-indicator) and controllable.
It hooks into [`page:loading:start`](/docs/api/advanced/hooks#app-hooks-runtime) and [`page:loading:end`](/docs/api/advanced/hooks#app-hooks-runtime) to change its state.
## Parameters
- `duration`: Duration of the loading bar, in milliseconds (default `2000`).
- `throttle`: Throttle the appearing and hiding, in milliseconds (default `200`).
- `estimatedProgress`: By default Nuxt will back off as it approaches 100%. You can provide a custom function to customize the progress estimation, which is a function that receives the duration of the loading bar (above) and the elapsed time. It should return a value between 0 and 100.
## Properties
### `isLoading`
- **type**: `Ref<boolean>`
- **description**: The loading state
### `error`
- **type**: `Ref<boolean>`
- **description**: The error state
### `progress`
- **type**: `Ref<number>`
- **description**: The progress state. From `0` to `100`.
## Methods
### `start()`
Set `isLoading` to true and start to increase the `progress` value.
### `finish()`
Set the `progress` value to `100`, stop all timers and intervals then reset the loading state `500` ms later. `finish` accepts a `{ force: true }` option to skip the interval before the state is reset, and `{ error: true }` to change the loading bar color and set the error property to true.
### `clear()`
Used by `finish()`. Clear all timers and intervals used by the composable.
## Example
```vue
<script setup lang="ts">
const { progress, isLoading, start, finish, clear } = useLoadingIndicator({
duration: 2000,
throttle: 200,
// This is how progress is calculated by default
estimatedProgress: (duration, elapsed) => (2 / Math.PI * 100) * Math.atan(elapsed / duration * 100 / 50)
})
</script>
```
