I'm new to Vue.js
I want to render a script tag inside a variable (data string).
I tried to us a v-html directive to do so, but it doesn't work Nothing is rendered
Any way I can achieve this?
If I understand you correctly, my answer is:
<template>
<div>
{{ strWithScriptTag }}
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: 'Example',
methods: {
htmlDecode(input) {
const e = document.createElement('div')
e.innerHTML = input
return e.childNodes[0].nodeValue
},
},
computed: {
strWithScriptTag() {
const scriptStr = '<script>https://some.domain.namet</script>'
return this.htmlDecode(scriptStr)
}
},
}
</script>
I think that by safety vue is escaping your <script> automatically and there is no way to avoid this.
Anyway, one thing you can do is eval(this.property) on created() lifecycle hook.
data: {
script: 'alert("this alert will be shown when the component is created")'
},
created() {
eval(this.script)
}
Use it with caution, as stated in vue js docs, this may open XSS attacks in your app
<script>tag throughinnerHTML(which is whatv-htmlwould be doing). Can scripts be inserted with innerHTML?.
