How to auto-import component for a directive and trigger it properly wit hevents?

[ivanjaros]

I have a auto-completing popup(q-menu) that shows up when users types in '@' into input that has my custom directive enabled. The problems I have are two:

a) i need to use the global event bus with custom event, which must be on the instance via boot file(in itself not a problem since i already use it, but it imposes unwanted dependency) in order to trigger this component
b) i have to import this component in my main App.vue template so it is essentially always in the application and shows up only when triggered via said event

I do not think this is the right approach. So what would be the proper way to invoke the component without quasar's event bus and how can i "open" the component(q-menu+some backend api lookup logic) without having to manually specify in in the main App.vue template? The q-menu or q-dialog themselves work like i would expect this to be(ie. auto-imported and toggled based on events).
