Vue.js SVG Responsive Component

Simply Demonstrate a Vue.js component that returns a .svg file passed to the component as a property + turn the img html tag into a responsive/adaptative element using CSS rules

Method:

  • we use a computed property to work with the SVG file into the component.

note: Computed properties sit halfway between properties of the data object and methods: we can access them as if they were properties of the data object, but they are specified as functions...

  • we create a computed property function that returns the .svg file path using the require() method to access the assets folder
  • we create the full path to the .svg source file using the value stored/passed as the property (props) of the component this.SVGFile
  • we use the ES6 template literal syntax to construct the full path dynamically...
  • we bind the value of the computed property to the src attribute of the img html tag...
  • the responsive-img CSS class will let the img tag to automatically fit the size of its parent container

component src\components\SVG-image.vue

<template>
    <img class="responsive-img" alt="JS logo" :src="path">
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'SVG-image',
  props: {
    SVGFile: String
  },
  computed: {
    path(){
      return require( `@/assets/svg/${this.SVGFile}`)
    }
  }
}
</script>

<style lang="scss" scoped>

.responsive-img{
  max-width: 100%;
  height: auto;
}

</style>

Using the component src\App.vue

<template>
  <div id="app">
    <main>
      <SVGImage SVGFile='logo-js.svg'/>
    </main>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import SVGImage from './components/SVG-image.vue'

export default {
  name: 'app',
  components: {
    SVGImage,
  }
}
</script>
//...
