Within my Vue application, I utilize a v-data-table. The column values are generated using a render function within a functional component as illustrated below:
render(createElement) {
if (this.$props.format) {
return this.$props.format(this.item, this.index, createElement);
}
return createElement('div', this.getText());
},
The format function, found within an object in a separate file, allows the use of createElement to produce an HTML element and return it. Here's an example snippet from another section of the app:
format: (template, index, createElement) => {
const captureType = template.captureType === 'passphrase' ? 'voice' : template.captureType;
return createElement('div', captureType);
},
Currently, I am attempting a more elaborate task - incorporating a Vuetify icon with a badge. Referencing the code snippet from the Vuetify documentation:
<v-badge left>
<template v-slot:badge>
<span>6</span>
</template>
<v-icon
large
color="grey lighten-1"
>
shopping_cart
</v-icon>
</v-badge>
Initially, constructing the basic badge HTML was achievable
format: (item, index, createElement) => {
const propsObj = {
attrs: {
color: 'blue',
},
props: {
overlap: true,
left: true,
},
slots: {
badge: 'dummy',
},
};
return createElement('v-badge', propsObj, [createElement('v-icon', { attrs: { color: 'success', large: true } }, 'account_circle')]);
},
This implementation almost reaches the desired outcome, displaying the icon wrapped within the badge element, yet without the badge content being visible:
<span class="v-badge v-badge--left v-badge--overlap">
<i aria ....>account_circle></a>
</span>
The challenge lies in getting the display value to appear within the badge slot. What steps am I overlooking to achieve this?
