Aurelia offers a way to add components dynamically. You can reuse a single component on different parts of your app without the need to include HTML multiple times. In this chapter, you will learn how to achieve this.
Step 1 – Create the Custom Component
Let”s create new components directory inside src folder.
C:UsersusernameDesktopaureliaAppsrc>mkdir components
Inside this directory, we will create custom-component.html. This component will be inserted later in the HTML page.
custom-component.html
<template> <p>This is some text from dynamic component...</p> </template>
Step 2 – Create the Main Component
We will create simple component in app.js. It will be used to render header and footer text on screen.
app.js
export class MyComponent { header = "This is Header"; content = "This is content"; }
Step 3 – Add the Custom Component
Inside our app.html file, we need to require the custom-component.html to be able to insert it dynamically. Once we do that, we can add a new element custom-component.
app.html
<template> <require from = "./components/custom-component.html"></require> <h1>${header}</h1> <p>${content}</p> <custom-component></custom-component> </template>
Following is the output. Header and Footer text is rendered from myComponent inside app.js. The additional text is rendered from the custom-component.js.
