I am working on a Vue 3 app. I have run into a problem working with a <Navbar /> component and one of its sub-components.
In App.vue:
<template>
<Navbar />
<Content title="Home" />
<Footer />
</template>
<script>
import Navbar from './components/Navbar.vue'
import Content from './components/Content.vue'
import Footer from './components/Footer.vue'
export default {
name: 'App',
components: {
Navbar,
Content,
Footer
}
}
</script>
Within the Content.vue component, I can display the title this way:
<h1>{{ title }}</h1>
<script>
export default {
name: 'Content',
props: {
title: String
}
}
</script>
But displaying buttons with their labels by the same pattern as above does not work:
// Button.vue component
<template>
<button class="btn btn-sm btn-generate">
{{ label }}
</button>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: 'Button',
props: {
label: String
}
}
</script>
// Navbar.vue component
<template>
<div class="navbar">
<Button label="Button 1" />
<Button label="Button 2" />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import Button from './Button'
export default {
name: 'Navbar',
components: {
Button
}
}
</script>
The problem
As a result of the code above, inside <div class="navbar"> there is only one button with no label, instead of 2 buttons labeled "Button 1" and "Button 2".
Where is my mistake?
>Solution :
I think that naming your component just as the already existing HTML element is not a good idea. Try changing it to MyButton and use <my-button>... in the navbar component (you still want to use <button> in MyButton, as you want to build upon it).
Most probably browser still picks just a default button instead of yours.
The first essential rule mentioned in Vue docs is Use multi-word component names.
