This section explains how to use Dropdown Tree component in Vue 3 application.
System requirements for Syncfusion Vue UI components
The easiest way to create a Vue application is to use the Vue CLI
. Vue CLI versions above 4.5.0
are mandatory for creating applications using Vue 3. Use the following command to uninstall older versions of the Vue CLI.
npm uninstall vue-cli -g
Use the following commands to install the latest version of Vue CLI.
npm install -g @vue/cli
npm install -g @vue/cli-init
Create a new project using the command below.
vue create quickstart
Initiating a new project prompts us to choose the type of project to be used for the current application. Select the option Default (Vue 3)
from the menu.
Syncfusion Vue packages are maintained in the npmjs.com
registry.
The Dropdown Tree component will be used in this example. To install it use the following command.
npm install @syncfusion/ej2-vue-dropdowns --save
Import the needed CSS styles for the Dropdown Tree component along with dependency styles in the <style>
section of the src/App.vue
file as follows.
<style>
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-inputs/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-vue-dropdowns/styles/material.css";
</style>
Note: Dropdown Tree component use other Syncfusion components too, the dependent component’s CSS references need to be added for using all the Dropdown Tree functionalities.
You have completed all the necessary configurations needed for rendering the Syncfusion Vue component. Now, you are going to add the Dropdown Tree component using following steps.
<script>
section of the src/App.vue
file. <script>
import { DropDownTreeComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-vue-dropdowns';
</script>
src/App.vue
file which are used in this example. import { DropDownTreeComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-vue-dropdowns';
//Component registeration
export default {
name: "App",
components: {
'ejs-dropdowntree' : DropDownTreeComponent
}
}
In the above code snippet, you have registered Dropdown Tree component.
<template>
<ejs-dropdowntree id='dropdowntree' :fields='fields'></ejs-dropdowntree>
</template>
Above is the Dropdown Tree component definition, with fields
property binding definition.
