Form Input Bindings

Basic Usage

You can use the v-model directive to create two-way data bindings on form input and textarea elements. It automatically picks the correct way to update the element based on the input type. Although a bit magical, v-model is essentially syntax sugar for updating data on user input events, plus special care for some edge cases.

v-model will ignore the initial value, checked or selected attributes found on any form elements. It will always treat the Vue instance data as the source of truth. You should declare the initial value on the JavaScript side, inside the data option of your component.

For languages that require an IME (Chinese, Japanese, Korean etc.), you’ll notice that v-model doesn’t get updated during IME composition. If you want to cater for these updates as well, use input event instead.

Text

<input v-model="message" placeholder="edit me">
<p>Message is: {{ message }}</p>
Live examples are not available on DevDocs, sorry.

Multiline text

<span>Multiline message is:</span>
<p style="white-space: pre">{{ message }}</p>
<br>
<textarea v-model="message" placeholder="add multiple lines"></textarea>

Interpolation on textareas (<textarea>{{text}}</textarea>) won't work. Use v-model instead.

Checkbox

Single checkbox, boolean value:

<input type="checkbox" id="checkbox" v-model="checked">
<label for="checkbox">{{ checked }}</label>
Live examples are not available on DevDocs, sorry.

Multiple checkboxes, bound to the same Array:

<input type="checkbox" id="jack" value="Jack" v-model="checkedNames">
<label for="jack">Jack</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="john" value="John" v-model="checkedNames">
<label for="john">John</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="mike" value="Mike" v-model="checkedNames">
<label for="mike">Mike</label>
<br>
<span>Checked names: {{ checkedNames }}</span>
new Vue({
  el: '...',
  data: {
    checkedNames: []
  }
})

Radio

<input type="radio" id="one" value="One" v-model="picked">
<label for="one">One</label>
<br>
<input type="radio" id="two" value="Two" v-model="picked">
<label for="two">Two</label>
<br>
<span>Picked: {{ picked }}</span>
Live examples are not available on DevDocs, sorry.

Select

Single select:

<select v-model="selected">
  <option disabled value="">Please select one</option>
  <option>A</option>
  <option>B</option>
  <option>C</option>
</select>
<span>Selected: {{ selected }}</span>
new Vue({
  el: '...',
  data: {
    selected: ''
  }
})
Live examples are not available on DevDocs, sorry.

If the initial value of your v-model expression does not match any of the options, the <select> element will render in an “unselected” state. On iOS this will cause the user not being able to select the first item because iOS does not fire a change event in this case. It is therefore recommended to provide a disabled option with an empty value, as demonstrated in the example above.

Multiple select (bound to Array):

<select v-model="selected" multiple>
  <option>A</option>
  <option>B</option>
  <option>C</option>
</select>
<br>
<span>Selected: {{ selected }}</span>
Live examples are not available on DevDocs, sorry.

Dynamic options rendered with v-for:

<select v-model="selected">
  <option v-for="option in options" v-bind:value="option.value">
    {{ option.text }}
  </option>
</select>
<span>Selected: {{ selected }}</span>
new Vue({
  el: '...',
  data: {
    selected: 'A',
    options: [
      { text: 'One', value: 'A' },
      { text: 'Two', value: 'B' },
      { text: 'Three', value: 'C' }
    ]
  }
})

Value Bindings

For radio, checkbox and select options, the v-model binding values are usually static strings (or booleans for checkbox):

<!-- `picked` is a string "a" when checked -->
<input type="radio" v-model="picked" value="a">

<!-- `toggle` is either true or false -->
<input type="checkbox" v-model="toggle">

<!-- `selected` is a string "abc" when selected -->
<select v-model="selected">
  <option value="abc">ABC</option>
</select>

But sometimes we may want to bind the value to a dynamic property on the Vue instance. We can use v-bind to achieve that. In addition, using v-bind allows us to bind the input value to non-string values.

Checkbox

<input
  type="checkbox"
  v-model="toggle"
  v-bind:true-value="a"
  v-bind:false-value="b"
>
// when checked:
vm.toggle === vm.a
// when unchecked:
vm.toggle === vm.b

Radio

<input type="radio" v-model="pick" v-bind:value="a">
// when checked:
vm.pick === vm.a

Select Options

<select v-model="selected">
  <!-- inline object literal -->
  <option v-bind:value="{ number: 123 }">123</option>
</select>
// when selected:
typeof vm.selected // -> 'object'
vm.selected.number // -> 123

Modifiers

.lazy

By default, v-model syncs the input with the data after each input event (with the exception of IME composition as stated above). You can add the lazy modifier to instead sync after change events:

<!-- synced after "change" instead of "input" -->
<input v-model.lazy="msg" >

.number

If you want user input to be automatically typecast as a number, you can add the number modifier to your v-model managed inputs:

<input v-model.number="age" type="number">

This is often useful, because even with type="number", the value of HTML input elements always returns a string.

.trim

If you want user input to be trimmed automatically, you can add the trim modifier to your v-model managed inputs:

<input v-model.trim="msg">

v-model with Components

If you’re not yet familiar with Vue’s components, just skip this for now.

HTML’s built-in input types won’t always meet your needs. Fortunately, Vue components allow you to build reusable inputs with completely customized behavior. These inputs even work with v-model! To learn more, read about custom inputs in the Components guide.
