Template in Vue Base component

16 May 20259 minutes to read

The Essential JS 2 for Vue Components support native Vue Templates, using Single File Components and Vue.component().

The Template support can be configured by these two ways given below.

  • Single File Components (.vue file)
  • Vue.component()

Single File Components

  • Define the template in a template.vue file, and create an empty object data in the data option of the template.vue file.

  • For passing arguments, pass as property of data object.

Refer below code snippet of template.vue file

// template.vue

<template>
    <div class="button">
      <ejs-button  :content="`${data.ShipCountry}`"></ejs-button>
    </div>
  </template>
  <script setup>
    import { ButtonComponent as EjsButton } from '@syncfusion/ej2-vue-buttons';
  </script>
  • Import the template.vue file in your corresponding app.vue file as specified in the following code snippet.
import buttonTemplate from './template.vue'
  • Create a template function which returns an object { key: ‘template’, value: ‘importedTemplate’ }.
cTemplate: function(e) {
   return {
       template: buttonTemplate
   };
}
  • Template function is assigned to the template property of the Essential JS2 Vue Component.

Refer the below code snippet of App.vue file.

// App.vue

<template>
    <div id="app">
        <ejs-grid ref="grid" :dataSource="ds">
            <e-columns>
                <e-column headerText='Ship Country' width='150' textAlign='Center' :template='cTemplate' />
                <e-column field="OrderID" headerText="Order ID" width=120 textAlign="Right" />
                <e-column field="CustomerName" headerText="Customer Name" width=150 />
            </e-columns>
        </ejs-grid>
    </div>
</template>
<script setup>
import { GridComponent as EjsGrid, ColumnDirective as EColumn, ColumnsDirective as EColumns } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-grids";
import { empData } from "./data";
import buttonTemplate from "./template.vue";
const ds = empData;
const cTemplate = function (e) {
    return {
        template: buttonTemplate
    };
};
</script>

<style>
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-vue-grids/styles/material.css";
</style>

Vue.component()

  • The Template is initialized with Vue.component() where template is provided in the template option.
    Create an empty object data in the data option for passing arguments.

  • For passing arguments, pass as property of data object.

var demoTemplate = Vue.component("demo", {
  template: "<ejs-button :content="`${data.ShipCountry}`"></ejs-button>",
  data() {
    return {
      data: {}
    };
  }
});
  • Create a template function which returns an object { key: ‘template’, value: ‘importedTemplate’ }.
cTemplate: function(e) {
   return {
       template: demoTemplate
   };
}

  • Template function is assigned to the template property of the Essential JS2 Vue Component.

  • Refer the below code snippet of App.vue file.

// App.vue

<template>
    <div id="app">
        <ejs-grid ref="grid" :dataSource="ds">
            <e-columns>
                <e-column headerText='Ship Country' width='150' textAlign='Center' :template='cTemplate' />
                <e-column field="OrderID" headerText="Order ID" width=120 textAlign="Right" />
                <e-column field="CustomerName" headerText="Customer Name" width=150 />
            </e-columns>
        </ejs-grid>
    </div>
</template>
<script setup>
import { createApp } from 'vue';
import { GridComponent } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-grids";
import { empData } from "./data";
const app = createApp();
var demoTemplate = app.component("demo", {
    template: "<ejs-button></ejs-button>",
    data() {
        return {
            data: {}
        };
    }
});
const ds = empData;
const cTemplate = function (e) {
    return {
        template: demoTemplate
    };
};
</script>

<style>
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-vue-grids/styles/material.css";
