So I want to apply the class .testcolor to the div when testvalue is true and apply nothing when testvalue is false.
When I add the getClass method to :class it doesn't even get called, but does when called from {{ getClass }}. I've tried clearing the cache and even rewriting the entire code but still doesn't work! The complete code is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Vue Test</title>
<style>
.testcolor {
color: red !important;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="test" :class="getClass">
<h1>Test stuff</h1>
<h2>{{ testvalue }}</h2>
</div>
<script type="module">
import { createApp } from "https://unpkg.com/vue@3.2.19/dist/vue.esm-browser.js";
createApp({
data() {
return {
testvalue: true,
};
},
methods: {
getClass() {
console.log("Method 'getClass' called");
return this.testvalue ? "testcolor" : "";
},
},
}).mount("#test");
</script>
</body>
</html>
I found that if I mount the Vue instance on a div element and add :class="testClass" (from the answer) to h2 it works! But when I install it on h2 element it doesn't work!

Edited based on your comment @martin0300
First, you need to wrap the partition in another partition whose id must be test. Vue does not consider the container element (the div with id
test) to be part of the application and does not handle any directives. References mentioning this are left below.https://vuejs.org/guide/essentials/application .html#Install application
So change your markup to something like this to apply the value from the getClass method...
...or this way using the computed property method (described below.)

Original message:
getClassNeeds to be called when defined as a method, and the return value ("testcolor") is set to the value of :class. Note that the function callgetClass()is used instead ofgetClass.That said, this is not the preferred way to apply classes conditionally. We prefer computed properties to methods. A method is called on every render, whereas a computed property is only recalculated when the underlying reactive data it depends on changes (in this case, the computed property
testClassdepends on the reactive propertytestvalue代码>.The idiomatic Vue code in your case is as follows. Note that computed properties are not called like functions as they are implemented internally using accessor methods/using JS proxies (
:class="testClass"and NOT:class="testClass()"). I believe the difference between how methods and computed properties are used is the cause of your confusion.
