How to load external html file in a template in VueJs
You cant. You must use async components - read guide here
It's actually remarkably easy, but you need to keep something in mind. Behind the scenes, Vue converts your html template markup to code. That is, each element you see defined as HTML, gets converted to a javascript directive to create an element. The template is a convenience, so the single-file-component (vue file) is not something you'll be able to do without compiling with something like webpack. Instead, you'll need to use some other way of templating. Luckily there are other ways of defining templates that don't require pre-compiling and are useable in this scenario.
1 - string/template literals
example: template: '<div>{{myvar}}</div>'
2 - render function ð¤¢
example: render(create){create('div')}
Vue has several other ways of creating templates, but they just don't match the criteria.
here is the example for both:
AddItem.js - using render ð functions
'use strict';
Vue.component('add-item', {
methods: {
add() {
this.$emit('add', this.value);
this.value = ''
}
},
data () {
return {
value: ''
}
},
render(createElement) {
var self = this
return createElement('div', [
createElement('input', {
attrs: {
type: 'text',
placeholder: 'new Item'
},
// v-model functionality has to be implemented manually
domProps: {
value: self.value
},
on: {
input: function (event) {
self.value = event.target.value
// self.$emit('input', event.target.value)
}
}
}),
createElement('input', {
attrs: {
type: 'submit',
value: 'add'
},
on: {
click: this.add
}
}),
])
}
});
ListItem.js - using template literals (back-ticks)
'use strict';
Vue.component('list-item', {
template: `<div class="checkbox-wrapper" @click="check">
<h1>{{checked ? '☑' : '☐'}} {{ title }}</h1>
</div>`,
props: [
'title',
'checked'
],
methods: {
check() {
this.$emit('change', !this.checked);
}
}
});
and the html
