Babel Plugin JSX for Vue 3

To add Vue JSX support.

English | 简体中文

Installation

Install the plugin with:

npm install @vue/babel-plugin-jsx -D

Then add the plugin to your babel config:

{
  "plugins": ["@vue/babel-plugin-jsx"]
}

Usage

options

transformOn

Type: boolean

Default: false

transform on: { click: xx } to onClick: xxx

optimize

Type: boolean

Default: false

When enabled, this plugin generates optimized runtime code using PatchFlags and SlotFlags to improve rendering performance. However, due to JSX's dynamic nature, the optimizations are not as comprehensive as those in Vue's official template compiler.

Since the optimized code may skip certain re-renders to improve performance, we strongly recommend thorough testing of your application after enabling this option to ensure everything works as expected.

isCustomElement

Type: (tag: string) => boolean

Default: undefined

configuring custom elements

mergeProps

Type: boolean

Default: true

merge static and dynamic class / style attributes / onXXX handlers

enableObjectSlots

Type: boolean

Default: true

Whether to enable object slots (mentioned below the document) syntax". It might be useful in JSX, but it will add a lot of _isSlot condition expressions which increase your bundle size. And v-slots is still available even if enableObjectSlots is turned off.

pragma

Type: string

Default: createVNode

Replace the function used when compiling JSX expressions.

resolveType

Type: boolean

Default: false

(Experimental) Infer component metadata from types (e.g. props, emits, name). This is an experimental feature and may not work in all cases.

Syntax

Content

functional component

const App = () => <div>Vue 3.0</div>;

with render

const App = {
  render() {
    return <div>Vue 3.0</div>;
  },
};

import { withModifiers, defineComponent } from 'vue';

const App = defineComponent({
  setup() {
    const count = ref(0);

    const inc = () => {
      count.value++;
    };

    return () => (
      <div onClick={withModifiers(inc, ['self'])}>{count.value}</div>
    );
  },
});

Fragment

const App = () => (
  <>
    <span>I'm</span>
    <span>Fragment</span>
  </>
);

Attributes / Props

const App = () => <input type="email" />;

with a dynamic binding:

const placeholderText = 'email';
const App = () => <input type="email" placeholder={placeholderText} />;

Directives

v-show

const App = {
  data() {
    return { visible: true };
  },
  render() {
    return <input v-show={this.visible} />;
  },
};

v-model

Note: You should pass the second param as string for using arg.

<input v-model={val} />

<input v-model:argument={val} />

<input v-model={[val, ['modifier']]} />
// Or
<input v-model_modifier={val} />

<A v-model={[val, 'argument', ['modifier']]} />
// Or
<input v-model:argument_modifier={val} />

Will compile to:

h(A, {
  argument: val,
  argumentModifiers: {
    modifier: true,
  },
  'onUpdate:argument': ($event) => (val = $event),
});

v-models (Not recommended since v1.1.0)

Note: You should pass a Two-dimensional Arrays to v-models.

<A v-models={[[foo], [bar, 'bar']]} />

<A
  v-models={[
    [foo, 'foo'],
    [bar, 'bar'],
  ]}
/>

<A
  v-models={[
    [foo, ['modifier']],
    [bar, 'bar', ['modifier']],
  ]}
/>

Will compile to:

h(A, {
  modelValue: foo,
  modelModifiers: {
    modifier: true,
  },
  'onUpdate:modelValue': ($event) => (foo = $event),
  bar: bar,
  barModifiers: {
    modifier: true,
  },
  'onUpdate:bar': ($event) => (bar = $event),
});

custom directive

Recommended when using string arguments

const App = {
  directives: { custom: customDirective },
  setup() {
    return () => <a v-custom:arg={val} />;
  },
};

const App = {
  directives: { custom: customDirective },
  setup() {
    return () => <a v-custom={[val, 'arg', ['a', 'b']]} />;
  },
};

Slot

Note: In jsx, v-slot should be replaced with v-slots

const A = (props, { slots }) => (
  <>
    <h1>{slots.default ? slots.default() : 'foo'}</h1>
    <h2>{slots.bar?.()}</h2>
  </>
);

const App = {
  setup() {
    const slots = {
      bar: () => <span>B</span>,
    };
    return () => (
      <A v-slots={slots}>
        <div>A</div>
      </A>
    );
  },
};

// or

const App = {
  setup() {
    const slots = {
      default: () => <div>A</div>,
      bar: () => <span>B</span>,
    };
    return () => <A v-slots={slots} />;
  },
};

// or you can use object slots when `enableObjectSlots` is not false.
const App = {
  setup() {
    return () => (
      <>
        <A>
          {{
            default: () => <div>A</div>,
            bar: () => <span>B</span>,
          }}
        </A>
        <B>{() => 'foo'}</B>
      </>
    );
  },
};

In TypeScript

tsconfig.json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "jsx": "preserve"
  }
}
