I have a question about dynamic templates in Meteor. I want to use a template multiple times with other data, but have no idea what I am doing wrong.
I have the following template:
<template name="knowyourcompany">
<section>
<header>
<h2>Know your company</h2>
</header>
<p class="question">Q: {{question}}</p>
</section>
</template>
I have the following template helper:
Template.knowyourcompany.helpers({
knowyourcompany1: function(){
return { question: "test" }
}
});
And this is how I include the template
{{> Template.dynamic template="knowyourcompany" data=knowyourcompany1}}
The problem is that I see an empty template. What am I doing wrong?
Template.dynamic should be used if you want the template to be interchangeable, but in your case you want your data context to be interchangeable, so this is no use case for Template.dynamic. Instead, use the ordinary {{> templateName myDataContext}}:
<template name="myMainTemplate">
{{> myTemplate myDataContext}}
</template>
Template.myMainTemplate.helpers({
myDataContext: function(){
return {a: 1, b: 2}
}
})
<template name="myTemplate">
a: {{a}}, b: {{b}}
</template>

I am new to vueJS.
What I want to do is passing parameters to a component, depending on the selection of the routes. Here is my App.vue:
<template>
<div id="main">
<header>
<h1 style="color:red">{{msg}}</h1>
</header>
<div>
<aside class="sidebar">
<router-link v-for="el in this.$router.options.routes" :to="el">
{{el.name}}
</router-link>
</aside>
<SubMenu></SubMenu>
<div class="content">
<router-view></router-view>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import SubMenu from './components/SubMenu.vue'
export default {
components: {
'SubMenu': SubMenu
},
data() {
return {
msg: 'Welcome to Your Vue.js App' }
}
}
</script>
<style>
#import 'style.css';
#import 'grid.css';
</style>
and the SubMenu component I would like to make dynamic:
<template>
<div>
something dynamic
</div>
</template>
How can I pass some parameters to use in the component?
thank you
Your App.vue can be like this:
<template>
<div id="main">
<header>
<h1 style="color:red">{{msg}}</h1>
</header>
<div>
<aside class="sidebar">
<router-link v-for="el in this.$router.options.routes" :to="el">
{{el.name}}
</router-link>
</aside>
<SubMenu :menuTitle="subMenuTitle"></SubMenu>
<div class="content">
<router-view></router-view>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import SubMenu from './components/SubMenu.vue';
export default {
components: {
SubMenu
},
data() {
return {
subMenuTitle: "This is the sub menu",
msg: 'Welcome to Your Vue.js App'
}
}
}
</script>
<style>
#import 'style.css';
#import 'grid.css';
</style>
The SubMenu.vue component could be like this:
<template>
<div>
<h2>{{ menuTitle }}</h2>
something dynamic
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: "SubMenu",
props: {
menuTitle: String,
}
}
</script>
In the SubMenu component that was used in App.vue, notice the colon that appears before the menuTitle attribute. When you do that before an attribute, the value of that attribute would be evaluated by Vue and passed to the component. You can pass literal Javascript expressions or items in your App.vue component.
In the SubMenu component, you can use the props in whatever way you can. If the prop's value is an array, you can use the v-for directive with it to create a list of items in the SubMenu.
Welcome to SO,
In Vue.js passing parameters to components is called "Props"
You can pass props to your SubMenu like below
<SubMenu :id="12345" someText="Some Text About Something" :dataArray="[1,2,3,4,5]" />
then inside your SubMenu component you can define Prop Types as below
props: ['dataArray']
or
props: {
dataArray: {
type: Array,
default: []
}
}
After that you can use the data you passed to your liking
You can also read up on this Vue Documentation regarding the Props, which has much more detailed explanations about various Props related stuff and sample code
Ok many thanks to both.
But what if I would like to pass something that depends on the voices in router-link? I mean, router-link prints a menu with 4 voices...what if I would like a behavior like this:
click on voice1 in router-link ---> pass this object ['input1', 'input2'] to SubMenu
click on voice2 in router-link ---> pass this other object ['input3', 'input4', 'input5'] to SubMenu
and so on.
thanks again :)
I'm trying to make in a bootstrap-vue table a slot to render any boolean value with a custom component.
So I have a simple table
<b-table :items="items" :fields="columns" >
</b-table>
Now if i want to render a single column in a particular way i have to use a slot
<template v-slot:cell(active)="data" >
<my-component :item="data.item" />
</template>
And it works, because I know that active is a boolean.
I would like to generalize this behavior but i cannot use v-for in templates and cannot use v-slot:cell(active) if not on template... The idea was to create an array with all my boolean fields and iterate on it... but it does not work..
Something like this
<template v-slot:cell(b)="data" v-for="b in booleanFields">
<my-component :item="data.item[b]" />
</template>
Because Vue supports Dynamic Slot Names, you can use variables to set the slot names using the v-bind:[attributeName]="value" syntax.
This way you could do something like:
<template v-slot:['cell(' + b + ')']="data" v-for="b in booleanFields">
But using the quotes there is not possible due to the dynamic argument expression constraints. So you'll have to create a helper method to do that concatenation. So:
<template v-slot:[gomycell(b)]="data" v-for="b in booleanFields">
plus
methods: {
gomycell(key) {
return `cell(${key})`; // simple string interpolation
}
Naturally, you could just name the method gomycell as cell and use it like v-slot:[cell(b)]="data" (notice the []s), but I left the name gomycell just so in this texample it is clearer what is the name of the method and what is not.
Demo:
Here's a small demo showcasing the dynamic slot names usage, it's not b-table but I think it is good enough to show it is possible:
Vue.component('my-table', {
template: '#my-table',
})
new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
booleanFields: [true, false]
},
methods: {
gomycell(key) {
return `cell(${key})`;
}
}
})
<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue"></script>
<div id="app">
<my-table>
<template v-slot:[gomycell(b)]="data" v-for="b in booleanFields">
<h3>who? {{ data.is }}</h3>
</template>
</my-table>
</div>
<template id="my-table">
<div>
<div style="color:green"><slot name="cell(true)" v-bind="{is: 'true!'}"></slot></div>
<div style="color:red"><slot name="cell(false)" v-bind="{is: 'false!'}"></slot></div>
</div>
</template>
My over-arching question is: In Vue, how to output inner html while iterating over a collection but without having to wrap it in an additional div or span.
Specifically: I'm iterating over an array of js objects from within a Vue template. Each object has a "render" method which outputs html.
This works:
template:
`<div id="container">
<template v-for="element in elements">
<span v-html="element.render()"></span>
</template>
</div>
`,
But I would like to do something like below, because I don't want the output to be wrapped in a div or span. This code produces no error but also produces no output:
template:
`<div id="container">
<template v-for="element in elements" v-html="element.render()">
</template>
</div>
`,
In a perfect world, I would do something like this, but mustache format can't output html:
<div id="container">
<template v-for="(element, index) in elements">
{{ element.render() }}
</template>
</div>
The desired output:
<div id="container">
(output of element.render())
(output of element.render())
(output of element.render())
etc.
</div>
Thank you for any guidance,

Delete the <template> tag completely and use render function in <script> tag. Something like this, but this code is not tested, demonstrational only.
export default {
...
render (h) {
return h('div', this.elements.map(function (elm) {
return h(elm.render())
})
}
}
I am new to Vuejs. This is what I need to do.
<div v-for="r in records">
<div v-if="r.something">
<div id="x">
{{ r. something}}
more of r here.
</div>
</div>
<div v-else id="x">
same div as in the block above.
</div>
</div>
What I want do is not define div with id x two times as it is huge.
Make your 'div' a component and refer to it in both places.
There are many ways to define your component. This is example shows just one. If you are using WebPack, use a single file component. You can then have your script, html, and css all in one file that gets precompiled. That's the best way to manage your 'huge' div. Then you can continue to refactor and break it up into more components.
const myComponent = {
template: "<div :id='id'>HELLO, my id is {{id}}. r.foo is {{r.foo}} </div>",
props: {
id: String
},
data() {
return {
r: {
foo: 'bar'
}
}
}
}
<div v-for="r in records">
<div v-if="r.something">
<my-component id='x' />
</div>
<div v-else id="x">
<my-component id='x' />
</div>
</div>
I had this issue while trying to render html into a vue component.
I am trying to insert component html through x-template. The issue is when I was trying to display the value {{i.value}} like this it was throwing error on console.
<script type="text/x-template" id="first-template">
<div>
<ul>
<li v-for="i in dataCollection">{{ i.id }}</li>
</ul>
</div>
</script>
Vue.component('menu', {
template: '#first-template',
data() {
return {
dataCollection: [{"id":"01"}, {"id":"02"}, {"id":"03"}],
}
}
});
The error on console was:
But when I was giving value as attribute like:
<script type="text/x-template" id="first-template">
<div>
<ul>
<li v-for="i in dataCollection" :id="i.id"></li>
</ul>
</div>
</script>
it works perfect.
Anyone know any fix ?
You should not put script/x-template tages inside of the element that you mount to the main instance to. Vue 2.0 will read all of its content and try to use it as a template for the main instance, and Vue's virtualDOM treats script/x-template's like normal DOM, which screws everthing up,
Simply moving the template out of the main element solved the problem.

This is a suggestion, not a answer.
As #DmitriyPanov mentioned, you'd better bind unique key when using v-for.
Another issue is you'd better to use non built-in/resevered html elements.
so change component id from menu to v-menu or else you like.
Then simulate similar codes below which are working fine.
I doubt the error is caused by some elements of dataCollection doesn't have key=id (probably you didn't post out all elements). You can try {{ 'id' in i ? i.id : 'None' }}.
Vue.component('v-menu', { //
template: '#first-template',
data() {
return {
newDataCollection: [{"id":"01"}, {"id":"02"}, {"id":"03"}, {'xx':0}],
dataCollection: [{"id":"01"}, {"id":"02"}, {"id":"03"}]
}
}
});
new Vue({
el: '#app',
data() {
return {testProperty: {
'test': '1'
}}
},
methods:{
test: function() {
}
}
})
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/vue/2.5.16/vue.js"></script>
<div id="app">
<v-menu></v-menu>
</div>
<script type="text/x-template" id="first-template">
<div>
<div style="float:left;margin-right:100px;">
<p>Old:</p>
<ul>
<li v-for="(i, index) in dataCollection" :key="index">{{ i.id }}</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
<p>Adjusted:</p>
<ul>
<li v-for="(i, index) in newDataCollection" :key="index">{{ 'id' in i ? i.id : 'None' }}</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</script>
I think the problem here lies in the placement of the X-Template code (I had the same issue). According to the documentation:
Your x-template needs to be defined outside the DOM element to which Vue is attached.
If you are using some kind of CMS, you might end up doing just that.
What helped me in that case was (based on your example):
Placing the X-template script outside the #app
passing the collection as a prop to the v-menu component:
<v-menu v-bind:data-collection="dataCollection"></v-menu>
list dataCollection as a prop inside the v-menu component:
Vue.component('v-menu', { //
template: '#first-template',
props: [ "dataCollection" ],
...
});
I hope that helps anyone.
In 2.2.0+, when using v-for with a component, a key is now required.
