I'm trying to bind the src of an image in an element, but it doesn't seem to work. I'm getting an "Invalid expression. Generated function body: { backgroundImage:{ url(image) }".
The documentation says to use either 'Kebab-case' or 'camel-case'.
<div class="circular" v-bind:style="{ backgroundImage: { url(image) }"></div>
Heres a fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/0dw9923f/2/
The issue is that the value for backgroundImage
needs to be a string like this:
<div class="circular" v-bind:style="{ backgroundImage: 'url(' + image + ')' }"></div>
Here's a simplified fiddle that's working: https://jsfiddle.net/89af0se9/1/
Re: the comment below about kebab-case, this is how you can do that:
<div class="circular" v-bind:style="{ 'background-image': 'url(' + image + ')' }"></div>
In other words, the value for v-bind:style
is just a plain Javascript object and follows the same rules.
UPDATE: One other note about why you may have trouble getting this to work.
You should make sure your image
value is quoted so that the end resulting string is:
url('some/url/path/to/image.jpeg')
Otherwise, if your image URL has special characters in it (such as whitespace or parentheses) the browser may not apply it properly. In Javascript, the assignment would look like:
this.image = "'some/url/path/to/image.jpeg'"
or
this.image = "'" + myUrl + "'"
Technically, this could be done in the template, but the escaping required to keep it valid HTML isn't worth it.
More info here: Is quoting the value of url() really necessary?
<div :style="{'background-image': 'url(' + require('./assets/media/img.jpg') + ')'}"></div>
Another solution:
<template>
<div :style="cssProps"></div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
cssProps: {
backgroundImage: `url(${require('@/assets/path/to/your/img.jpg')})`
}
}
}
}
</script>
What makes this solution more convenient? Firstly, it's cleaner. And then, if you're using Vue CLI (I assume you do), you can load it with webpack.
Note: don't forget that require()
is always relative to the current file's path.
<div :style="{ backgroundImage: `url(${post.image})` }">
there are multiple ways but i found template string easy and simple
I searched in this post but no one posted require
with dynamic
filename that's why I am posting it.
:style="{ backgroundImage: `url(${require('@/assets/' + banner.image)})` }"
For single repeated component this technic work for me
<div class="img-section" :style=img_section_style >
computed: {
img_section_style: function(){
var bgImg= this.post_data.fet_img
return {
"color": "red",
"border" : "5px solid ",
"background": 'url('+bgImg+')'
}
},
}
I tried @david answer, and it didn't fix my issue. after a lot of hassle, I made a method and return the image with style string.
HTML Code
<div v-for="slide in loadSliderImages" :key="slide.id">
<div v-else :style="bannerBgImage(slide.banner)"></div>
</div>
Method
bannerBgImage(image){
return `background-image: url(${image})`;
},
methods
when we don't change the component's state. That's what computed
are for..
Binding background image style using a dynamic value from v-for loop could be done like this.
<div v-for="i in items" :key="n"
:style="{backgroundImage: 'url('+require('./assets/cars/'+i.src+'.jpg')+')'}">
</div>
I experienced an issue where background images with spaces in the filename where causing the style to not be applied. To correct this I had to ensure the string path was encapsulated in single quotes.
Note the escaped \' in my example below.
<div :style="{
height: '100px',
backgroundColor: '#323232',
backgroundImage: 'url(\'' + event.image + '\')',
backgroundPosition: 'center center',
backgroundSize: 'cover'
}">
</div>
The accepted answer didn't seem to solve the problem for me, but this did
Ensure your backgroundImage declarations are wrapped in url( and quotes so the style works correctly, no matter the file name.
ES2015 Style:
<div :style="{ backgroundImage: `url('${image}')` }"></div>
Or without ES2015:
<div :style="{ backgroundImage: 'url(\'' + image + '\')' }"></div>
Source: vuejs/vue-loader issue #646
I use the VUE options (~@/)
I defined a class
<template>
<v-container class="bgExampleClass" fuild>
<!-- Content-->
</v-container>
</template>
<script></script>
<style>
.bgExampleClass{
background-image: url('~@/assets/imgs/backgroundExample.jpg');
}
</style>
Based on my knowledge, if you put your image folder in your public folder, you can just do the following:
<div :style="{backgroundImage: `url(${project.imagePath})`}"></div>
If you put your images in the src/assets/
, you need to use require. Like this:
<div :style="{backgroundImage: 'url('+require('@/assets/'+project.image)+')'}">.
</div>
One important thing is that you cannot use an expression that contains the full URL like this project.image = '@/assets/image.png'
. You need to hardcode the '@assets/'
part. That was what I've found. I think the reason is that in Webpack, a context is created if your require contains expressions, so the exact module is not known on compile time. Instead, it will search for everything in the @/assets
folder. More info could be found here. Here is another doc explains how the Vue loader treats the link in single file components.
Try encodeURI()
The issue I had was due to special chars and/or whitespace in the URL I was attempting to use.
So I had to change this:
:style="{ backgroundImage : 'url(' + item.media.url + ')' }"
To this:
:style="{ backgroundImage : 'url(' + encodeURI(item.media.url) + ')' }"
the easiest wat to add background image by style tag in vuejs is
<style>
.somediv {
background-image: url('~@/image-path')
}
</style>
you need to add `~` before source alias
A solution I'd recommend, without modifying too much of your fiddle code, only requires a simple tweak:
To quote a snippet of the Vue.js v2 documentation;
In-template expressions are very convenient, but they are meant for simple operations. Putting too much logic in your templates can make them bloated and hard to maintain.
As it applies to this very case, (assuming the value/state of the image
data property isn't likely to change), using a computed property will keep your template cleaner and more maintainable. See refactor --
<!-- HTML -->
<div id="app"></div>
// JS
var template = "<div class=\"circular\" v-bind:style=\"imageUrl\"></div>";
var el = document.querySelector("#app");
var data = {
image: "http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8PfnHfgrH4I/TylX2v8pTMI/AAAAAAAAJJ4/TICBoSEI57o/s1600/search_by_image_image.png"
};
new Vue({
el: el,
replace: false,
template: template,
data: data,
computed: {
imageUrl: function() {
return {'background-image': `url(${this.image})`}
}
}
})
I had to add .default
after require
for this to work:
:style="{ backgroundImage: `url(${require('@/media/bg-1.jpg').default})` }"
<template>
<section :style="banner"></section>
</template>
<script>
import banner from "@/assets/images/banners/rectangle1.png";
export default {
data() {
return { banner: { backgroundImage: `url('${banner}')` } };
},
};
</script>
Success story sharing
backgroundImage
) not kebab case (background-image
) even though the docs say it can be either.backgroundImage: image
instead ofbackgroundImage: 'url('+image+')'
. I got so hung up on the vue syntax that I forgot theurl()
.v-bind:style="{ 'background-image': url(image) }"
, but outside of a component (just on a regular page) it seemed to require putting url in quotes. Does anyone know why that might be?
