  el: '#test-format',
  data: {
    template: "Hello {0}, {1}! {0}, and {{0}}"    // list formatting template
  },

    foo: function(arg1, arg2) {
      return this.$format(template2, arg1, arg2);
    }

<div id="test-format" class="message">

  <p>Hello world, 456! world, and {0}</p>
  <p>Hello world, 789! world, and {0}</p>
</div>

Note that the double brackets, e.g., {{0}}, will escape the brackets.

API

$format(message, arg1, arg2, ...)

This is a Vue instance method used to format the messages with arguments.

• message: the message template, which is a string contains zero or more placeholders, e.g., "{0}", "{1}", ...
• arg1, arg2, ...: zero or more arguments used to replace the corresponding placeholders in the message template.
• return: the formatted message.
• If there is no formatting arguments provided, the function simply returns the message without any changes.
• If there is any argument which is null or undefined, or if there is no enough argument provided, the function will treat those arguments as empty strings.
• If there is no message nor arguments, the function returns an empty string.
• In order to escape a brackets, use double brackets; e.g., {{0}} will be treated as a string {0} with escaped brackets.

format

This is a customized Vue filter used to format messages.

• Usage example: {{ message | format arg1 arg2 }}
• The effect of this filter is the same as the effect of the $format() function.
