I have a component like this:
<test></test>
I declare this as follows:
Vue.component('test', {
data: {
showModal: true
},
methods: {
displayComponentModalDialog: function() {
this.showModal = true;
}
},
template: `<button #click='displayComponentModalDialog'>test</button>`
});
The <test></test> component is then placed somewhere inside the <div id="#app"> wrapper.
var app = new Vue({
router,
el: '#app',
// etc.
})
Now, I want to display another component inside the test component. So in this case I want a dialog to appear after I click the button in test component. I am not able to achieve this.
What I did is adding a new component:
Vue.component('dialog', {
template: '#dialog-template'
});
And then the following code, although I do not know for sure where to put it.
<!-- template for the modal component -->
<script type="text/x-template" id="dialog-template">
<transition name="dialog">
<div class="modal-mask">
<div class="modal-wrapper">
<div class="modal-container">
<div class="modal-header">
<slot name="header">
default header
</slot>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<slot name="body">
default body
</slot>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<slot name="footer">
<button class="btn btn-primary" #click="$emit('close')">
OK
</button>
</slot>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</transition>
</script>
<!-- use the modal component, pass in the prop -->
<dialog v-if="showModal" #close="showModal = false">
<h3 slot="header">header</h3>
<p slot="body">
test
</p>
</dialog>
I tried putting this code inside the <test></test> but doesn't work. If I put it inside the template attribute in the component structure, it complains about only one root element.
So it is clear I miss some basic conception how this actually works in VueJS. Someone can help me clarify? Thanks.
As far as I can see your component indeed doesn't have a root tag. Templates have to have a root tag.
This is NOT a valid Vue template:
<div>
<h1>Stuff</h1>
</div>
<h2>Other stuff</h2>
This IS a valid Vue template:
<div>
<div>
<h1>Stuff</h1>
</div>
<h2>Other stuff</h2>
</div>
Note that in the second version we have a single root element for the template, a <div>, whereas in the first one we do not.
You have both a <script></script> and a <dialog></dialog> in your component template.
if you want to add another component in your test component . you can use slot on it.
You can refer to this documentation: https://v2.vuejs.org/v2/guide/components-slots.html
Example:
//component 1
<template>
<div id="modal">
// do something for your modal here.
<slot></slot> // reserve area for your another html or component.
</div>
</template>
// component 2
<template>
<your-modal-component>
<another-component>
</your-modal-component>
</template>

One thing that I have been struggling to figure out how to do better is modals. Currently, I am registering the modal component on each Vue that needs it. However, this feels rather sloppy, as I am having to register the component several times. Even using mix-ins just does not feel like an elegant solution. What would be optimal to be able to do is to mimic JavaScript's alert() method on the Vue instance. For example, be able to call this.ShowModal(Header, Body)
However, from my understanding, there is no way to accomplish this
Take for example my Modal example. You could have a modal template like this:
<script type="text/x-template" id="modal-template">
<transition name="modal">
<div class="modal-mask">
<div class="modal-wrapper">
<div class="modal-container">
<div class="modal-header">
<slot name="header">
default header
</slot>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<slot>
</slot>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<slot name="footer">
default footer
<button class="modal-default-button" #click="$emit('close')">
OK
</button>
</slot>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</transition>
</script>
Then you would have to reference the component over and over again like this
<template>
<button #click="displayModal">Display the Modal Alert</button>
<modal v-if="showModal" #close="showModal = false">
<h3 slot="header"> This is a good header </h3>
<p>
Look at me I am the body! You have seen me {{displayCount}} times!
</p>
</modal>
</template>
<script>
components: {modal},
data: {
showModal: false,
displayCount: 0
},
methods: {
displayModal(){
this.displayCount++
this.showModal = true;
}
}
</script>
If you wanted to reuse the component for several messages from within the parent you would then have to add several more variables to store things such as the header and body. You could put some of the logic into a mixin but you would still have to have the clutter of adding the modal component and possibly the mixin.
This brings us to the question. Is there a way to create a function in the Vue instance that would allow for us to dynamically create a Modal component and fill in the slots with arguments passed to the function? e.g. this.ShowModal("This is a good header", "Look at me I am the body!")
Use Vue.extend() create a "modal" constructor and create a instance,you can mount it to DOM dynamically by $mount or other ways
In Modal example:
modal.vue:
<template>
<div>
{{message}} //your modal content
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: 'modal',
data(){
return {
message: '',
}
},
methods:{
/************/
close () {
/****this.$destroy()****/
}
}
}
</script>
modal.js:
import myModal from 'modal.vue'
import Vue from 'vue'
const modalConstructor = Vue.extend(myModal)
const modal = (options,DOM)=>{
const modalInstance = new modalConstructor({data:options})
modalInstance.vm = modalInstance.$mount() //get vm
const dom = DOM || document.body // default DOM is body
dom.appendChild(modalInstance.vm.$el) // mount to DOM
return modalInstance.vm
}
export default modal
now you can create a Modal component by a function like this:
import showModal from 'modal.js'
showModal({message:"..."})
Below code only works when "'test'" is inside a double and single quote like this: v-b-modal="'test'"
Sample working code:
<div id="app">
<div>
<b-link v-b-modal="'test'">Click to Test Modal</b-link>
</div>
<b-modal id="test" title="Bootstrap Vue Modal 2">
<p class="my-4">Testing Bootstrap Vue Modal Without</p>
</b-modal>
</div>
But, what if I want to use a value of a data property, like below example. If I use :v-b-modal="'name'", it uses "name" instead of "testModal".
<div id="app">
<div>
<b-link :v-b-modal="name">Click to Test Modal</b-link>
</div>
<b-modal :id="name" title="Bootstrap Vue Modal">
<p class="my-4">Testing Bootstrap Vue Modal</p>
</b-modal>
</div>
<script>
new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
name: 'testModal'
}
})
</script>
Any help is appreciated on how to use a value of a data property inside v-b-modal.
You just have to remove the two dots v-b-modal="name" and it is going to work.
You can see on this codepen.
So I currently have a template sitting in a ".vue" file like so:
<template>
<div id="dataAttachToMe"></div>
</template>
I don't want this to load, unless a user clicks a button, something like
<button #click="loadTheTemplateAbove">See Data</button>
I've tried using this example:https://v2.vuejs.org/v2/guide/conditional.html#Controlling-Reusable-Elements-with-key. But it says something like "Component template should contain exactly one root element" in the error message.
I need more than a show/hide here I think, something that can initiate the template dynamically.
<template>
<div id="data">
<button #click="loadTemplate">Load the template</button>
<div v-if="buttonClicked">
<div id="dataAttachedToThisDiv"></div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
The error you are getting, means that there is more than one root element inside <template></template> tag.
It is required in Vue.js (and other template based frameworks/libraries) to have only one root element.
This will NOT work:
<template>
<div id="dataAttachToMe"></div>
<button #click="loadTheTemplateAbove">See Data</button>
</template>
This will work:
<template>
<div id="someRootDiv">
<div id="dataAttachToMe">Some data</div>
<button #click="loadTheTemplateAbove">See Data</button>
</div>
</template>
Here is a code example (App.vue) of what you are trying to achieve:
Basic idea: we have to create a variable, that will be changed upon button click. We add v-if directive that depends on that variable and will handle element's visibility.
Welcome to StackOverflow. When you get the error Component template should contain exactly one root element it means that you can only have one root element in your template. You can fix that error by wrapping everything in a blank div like so
<template>
<div>
<template v-if="loginType === 'username'">
<label>Username</label>
<input placeholder="Enter your username">
</template>
<template v-else>
<label>Email</label>
<input placeholder="Enter your email address">
</template>
</div>
</template>
Please edit your post and place you <script> tag. Conditional Rendering requires a data field of a boolean that you can place in your if statement on your template
<template>
<div>
<div v-if="show">{{message}}</div>
<div v-if="#show">Not Showing when show is set to false</div>
<button v-on:click="show = true">Show</button>
</div>
</template>
<script>
module.exports {
data: function () {
message: 'Hello Vue!',
show: false
}
}
</script>
I would like to automatically include the contents of one component in a named slot of another component. I.e., something like this:
Vue.component('comp-one', {
template: `
<div class="comps>
<div class="comp-two">
<slot name="compTwo"></slot>
</div>
<div class="comp-one">
<slot></slot>
</div>
</div>
`
})
Vue.component('comp-two', {
slot: 'compTwo',
template: `
<div class="sub-comp-two">
<!-- content goes here -->
<slot></slot>
</div>
`
})
The idea is that if someone uses <comp-two>Some content</comp-two>, it will automatically get added to the slot compTwo in comp-one. Is there a way to do this?
NOTE: I made up slot: 'compTwo'. Just trying to illustrate what I'd like to accomplish.
VueJS component doesn't get cached or atleast reattached after navigation. On refresh or launch everything gets attached and rendered well but after navigating to another page then back. The First Component - Carousel - component in my case doesn't get rendered but the API call is made.
<template>
<div class="rel">
<div id="homeCarousel" class="owl-carousel owl-slider">
<div class="item" v-for="product in featured">
<div class="bg-holder top-area-half" >
<div class="bg-mask-lighten"></div>
<img class="bg-img" v-bind:src="product.feature_image_url">
<div class="hero-caption">
<div class="container">
<h3 class="hero-title">{{product.feature_title}}</h3>
<p class="hero-subtitle">{{product.feature_subtitle}}</p>
<a class="btn btn-white btn-ghost btn-lg hero-btn" href="#">Shop now</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="hero-slider-nav" class="hero-slider-nav">
<div class="container">
<div class="pull-right"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
<style>
</style>
<script>
export default{
data(){
return{
featured:[]
}
},
ready(){
},
mounted(){
this.getFeaturedProducts();
},
components:{
},
methods: {
getFeaturedProducts: function () {
Vue.http.get('/api/product/filter/featured=1').then(
(response) => {
this.featured = response.body;
}
)
}
}
}
</script>
`
<template>
<div class="global-wrapper clearfix ">
<keep-alive>
<Carousel></Carousel>
</keep-alive>
//The rest of the code which is just importing the Component
I found out what i was doing wrong. I had a separate JS/JQuery file and on the document ready i was initializing an owl carousel by id #('homeCarousel').owlCarousel({}) . What worked was, since i had already bootstrapped owl carousel -> on the mounted lifecycle callback i was now targeting the element and making it an owl carousel.
