Dependencies
The list of dependencies required to use the Badge component in your application is given below:
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-notificationsSetup for local environment
Refer to the following steps to set up your local environment.
Step 1: Create a root folder named my-app for your application.
Step 2: Create a my-app/resources folder to store local scripts and styles files.
Step 3: Open Visual Studio Code and create my-app/index.js and my-app/index.html files to initialize the Essential® JS 2 Badge control.
Adding Syncfusion® resources
The Essential® JS 2 Badge control can be initialized by using either of the following ways.
- Using local script and style.
- Using CDN link for script and style.
Using local script and style references in an HTML page
Step 1: Create an app folder myapp for Essential® JS 2 JavaScript controls.
Step 2: You can get the global scripts and styles from the Essential Studio® JavaScript (Essential® JS 2) build installed location.
Syntax:
Script:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\dist\global\{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.jsStyles:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\styles\material.css
Example:
Script:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\16.3.0.17\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-notifications\dist\global\ej2-notifications.min.jsStyles:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\16.3.0.17\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-notifications\styles\material.css
The below located script and style file contains all Syncfusion® JavaScript (ES5) UI control resources in a single file.
Scripts:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\dist\ej2.min.jsStyles:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\material.css
Step 3: Create a folder myapp/resources, and copy and paste the global scripts and styles from the above installed location to myapp/resources location.
Step 4: Create an HTML page (index.html) in myapp location and add the Essential® JS 2 script and style references.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2</title>
<!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
<link href="resources/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>Step 5: Now, create a span element to apply the Essential® JS 2 Badge control in the index.html by using following code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2</title>
<!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
<link href="resources/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Add the HTML <span> element -->
<h1>Badge control <span class="e-badge e-badge-primary">New</span></h1>
</body>
</html>Step 6: Now, run the index.html in web browser, it will render the Essential® JS 2 Badge control.
Using CDN link for script and style reference
Step 1: Create an app folder myapp for the Essential® JS 2 JavaScript controls.
Step 2: The Essential® JS 2 control’s global scripts and styles are already hosted in the following CDN link formats.
Syntax:
Script:
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/dist/global/{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.jsStyles:
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/styles/material.css
Example:
Styles:
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-base/styles/material.css
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-notifications/styles/material.css
Step 3: Create an HTML page (index.html) in myapp location and add the CDN link references. Now, add the span element and initiate the Essential® JS 2 Badge control in the index.html by using the following code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2</title>
<!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
<link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/32.2.3/ej2-base/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/32.2.3/ej2-notifications/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css" />
<script src="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/syncfusion-helper.js" type ="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Add the HTML <span> element -->
<div id="element">
<h1>Badge control <span class="e-badge e-badge-primary">New</span></h1>
</div>
<style>
#element {
display: flex;
width: 400px;
margin: auto;
border: 1px solid #dddddd;
border-radius: 3px;
justify-content: center;
}
</style>
</body>
</html>Step 4: Now, run the index.html in the web browser to display the Essential® JS 2 Badge control.
