vue: can v-html be inside a js array?

Question

I have a js file containing array and objects. I need to style some properties from these arrays. For example

myArray= [
  {
    id: 1,
    name: 'honda',
    description: 'to buy the latest car, click here'
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    name: 'tesla',
    description: 'to buy the latest car, click here'
  }
]

Let's say I want to style the description property so that I can bind a link there. I figure that the way to do it is to use raw html. But in my case, I'm going to include it to my array. Is this possible? I have tried to search this question everywhere but there's no explanation for this case. Thank you so much.

sure, description: '... <a href="#">...</a>...', then use <span v-html="item.description"></span>, make sure its not user supplied though, else XSS is possible. The only issue comes if you want to do vue in the string, ie a @click="$router.push('/')" etc, then your want to use the runtime complier — Lawrence Cherone

Your array values can contain HTML. In order to display it, you would need to use v-html as you already indicated, eg <p v-for="obj in myArray" :key="obj.id" v-html="obj.description"></p> — Phil

@Phil thank you for your explanation! does this also work if not all description property are styled? I mean, for example, in another new object (another car), I don't want to add any v-html in the description property. — user15142225

v-html doesn't require there to be HTML tags present. It will just output your description value as-is — Phil

You can use any html styled code in your Array such as below.

myArray= [
  {
    id: 1,
    name: 'honda',
    description: '<a href="https://www.honda.com">to buy the latest car, click here</a>'
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    name: 'tesla',
    description: '<a href="https://www.tesla.com" style="font-size:50px">to buy the latest car, click here</a>'
  }
]

And in your templete you would use: like

...
<div v-for="car in myArray" :key="car.id">
    <p v-html="car.description"></p>
</div>
