Quasar is a popular Vue UI library for developing good looking Vue apps.
In this article, we’ll take a look at how to create Vue apps with the Quasar UI library.
Table
Quasar comes with the q-table component to let us add a table into our Vue app.
To use it, we write:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quasar@1.12.13/dist/quasar.umd.min.js"></script>
<div id="q-app">
<q-layout
view="lHh Lpr lFf"
container
style="height: 100vh;"
class="shadow-2 rounded-borders"
>
<div class="q-pa-md">
<q-table
title="Treats"
:data="data"
:columns="columns"
row-key="name"
>
</q-table>
</div>
</q-layout>
</div>
<script>
const columns = [
{
name: "name",
required: true,
label: "Dessert",
align: "left",
field: (row) => row.name,
format: (val) => `${val}`,
sortable: true
},
{
name: "calories",
align: "center",
label: "Calories",
field: "calories",
sortable: true
},
{ name: "fat", label: "Fat (g)", field: "fat", sortable: true },
{
name: "calcium",
label: "Calcium (%)",
field: "calcium",
sortable: true,
sort: (a, b) => parseInt(a, 10) - parseInt(b, 10)
}
];
const data = [
{
name: "Frozen Yogurt",
calories: 159,
fat: 6.0,
calcium: "14%"
},
{
name: "Ice cream sandwich",
calories: 237,
fat: 9.0,
calcium: "8%"
},
{
name: "Eclair",
calories: 262,
fat: 16.0,
calcium: "6%"
},
{
name: "Honeycomb",
calories: 408,
fat: 3.2,
calcium: "0%"
},
{
name: "Donut",
calories: 452,
fat: 25.0,
calcium: "2%"
},
{
name: "KitKat",
calories: 518,
fat: 26.0,
calcium: "12%"
}
];
new Vue({
el: "#q-app",
data: {
columns,
data
}
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
The columns prop has the column definition.
data has the table data.
title has the table title.
row-key sets the property name with the unique ID value.
In the columns array, the field is a function that returns the value that we want to display from the table data.
format returns the formatted value
align sets the cell content alignment.
required sets whether the column is required.
label has the column label.
sortable lets us enable or disable sorting of the column.
sort is a method that lets us change how to sort the column data.
name is the property name of the data entry to display.
Pagination is built into the table by default.
We can add the dark prop to set the table to show with a dark background:
