Vue.js Click Event

Vue.js is a progressive framework for building user interfaces. The core library is focused on the view layer only and is easy to pick up and integrate with other libraries. Vue is also perfectly capable of powering sophisticated Single-Page Applications in combination with modern tooling and supporting libraries.

The v-on directive is used to let users interact with the application. It can be attached to the event listeners that invoke methods on Vue instances. This allows any required function to be invoked when the click event occurs. 

Example 1:

  • Filename- index.html:

    HTML




    <html>
    <head>
        <script src=
      </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id='parent'>
            <h2>Counter - {{counter}}</h2>
            <button v-on:click='increment'>
              Increment
              </button>
            <button v-on:click='decrement'>
              Decrement
              </button>
        </div>
        <script src='app.js'>
      </script>
    </body>
    </html>

    
    
  • Filename- app.js:

    Javascript




    const parent = new Vue({
        el : '#parent',
        data : {
            counter : 0
        },
        methods: {
           increment : function(){
               this.counter += 1
           },
           decrement : function(){
               this.counter -= 1
           }
        }
    })

              Change Color
              </button>
        </div>
        <script src='app.js'></script>
    </body>

                  document.querySelector('#box')
                const red =
                  Math.floor(Math.random() * 256 + 1)
                const green =
                  Math.floor(Math.random() * 256 + 1)
                const blue =
                  Math.floor(Math.random() * 256 + 1)
      
                box.style.background =
                  "rgb("+red+", "+green+", "+blue+ ")"
            }
          }
    })
