Topic: Exported component via vue-cli not looking as intended
Hi there.
I am using MDB Vue Pro to create my components. When I export them via vue-cli as single web component, the component does not look like expected. The export was made this way:
vue-cli-service build --target wc --name star-rating ./src/components/StarRating.vue
Expected behavior
The component should look like this when using it outside of vue, for example in plain html:
Actual behavior
At the moment, it looks like this:
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
Below the code of the StarRating.vue component:
<template>
<div class="StarRatingComponent">
<media :query="{minWidth: sm}">
<div>
<div :ratings="ratings" v-for="(rating, index) in ratings">
<mdb-container>
<mdb-row>
<mdb-col offsetMd="1" md="3">
<mdb-rating
class="stars text-md-right text-left"
far
disabled
:value="parsedRating(index)"
iconClass="rating-inactive-color"
iconActiveClass="rating-active-color"
/>
</mdb-col>
<mdb-col md="6">
<h4 class="title">{{rating.title}}</h4>
<p class="message">{{rating.message}}</p>
</mdb-col>
</mdb-row>
</mdb-container>
</div>

export default class StarRatingComponent extends Vue {

readonly sm = sm;
parsedRating(ratingValue: number): number {
if (ratingValue > 5) {
return 5;
}

return ratingValue;

@import "../scss/app";

text-align: left;
}
.indicator-color {
background-color: $warm-red !important;
}
.carousel-indicators {
border-top: 0px;
bottom: -10px;
}
What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance!

Hi there,
The problem is connected with Vue Web Components itself, not with the MDB library. As Web Components are not plain html elements, they won't catch styles from outside. We don't recommend this way of exporting components. We strongly advice to build them as a Universal Module Definition. Here's the script:
vue-cli-service build --target lib --dest lib/components/${componentName} --formats umd-min --name ${componentName} --filename ${componentName} ./src${componentPath}${componentExt}
