Share JavaScript Code Between LWC and Aura


To share JavaScript code between Lightning web components and Aura components, put the code in an ES6 module.

To share an ES6 module:
  • Create an ES6 module using the Lightning Web Components programming model.
  • To use the code in a Lightning web component, import and reference it in the component’s JavaScript file.
  • To use the code in an Aura component, use the same syntax that you use to import an Aura component and call its methods.
Create a .js file, example: extendableJS

const calculateMonthlyPayment = (principal, years, rate) => { if (principal && years && rate && rate > 0) { const monthlyRate = rate / 100 / 12; const monthlyPayment = (principal * monthlyRate) / (1 - Math.pow(1 / (1 + monthlyRate), years * 12)); return monthlyPayment; } return 0; }; export { calculateMonthlyPayment };

Create a lwc which can use your .js functions, example: applicationTest

        import { LightningElement, track} from 'lwc'; import { getTermOptions, calculateMonthlyPayment } from 'c/extendableJS'; export default class ApplicationTest extends LightningElement { @track principal = 200000; @track term = 30; @track rate = 4; @track monthlyPayment = ''; calculateMonthlyPayment() { this.monthlyPayment = calculateMonthlyPayment( this.principal, this.term, this.rate ); }

Create a Aura Component which can use same .js functions, 
example: auraDomListener

<aura:attribute name="termOptions" type="List"/> <aura:attribute name="principal" type="integer" default="1000"/> <aura:attribute name="term" type="integer"/> <aura:attribute name="rate" type="integer" default="10"/> <aura:attribute name="monthlyPayment" type="integer" default=""/> <c:extendableJS aura:id="pubsub" />

     calculateMonthlyPayment:function(component, event){ var pubsub = component.find('pubsub'); var calResult = pubsub.calculateMonthlyPayment(component.get("v.principal"), component.get("v.term"),component.get("v.rate")); component.set("v.monthlyPayment",calResult); }

Custom Table In LWC

I'm assuming you've Basic understanding of Lightning Web Component, I'll be explaining you the syntax that will be generic. HTML: < template > <!-- Header Part -->      < lightning-card   title = "Custom Data table in Lightning Web Components" >          < div   class = "slds-grid slds-gutters" >              < div   class = "slds-col" >                  < span ></ span >              </ div >              < div   class = "slds-col" >                  < span > <!--A Button For extra feature-->                      < lightning-button   label = "Show Selected Contacts"   onclick = {showContacts}   style = "margin-left: 40%"   variant = "brand" > </ lightning-button >                  </ span >              </ div >          </ div >< br />

LWC js-meta.xml Configuration File Tags

Each Lightning web component folder must include a configuration file named <componentName>.js-meta.xml. The configuration file defines the metadata values for the component, including the design configuration for the Lightning App Builder and Community Builder. Some Standard Key metadata values: apiVersion : A double value that binds the component to a Salesforce API version. isExposed : If isExposed is false, the component is not exposed to Lightning App Builder or Community Builder. To allow the component to be used in Lightning App Builder or Community Builder, set isExposed to true and define at least one <target>, which is a type of Lightning page. Some Standard Optional metadata values: description : A short description of the component, usually a single sentence. masterLabel : The title of the component. Appears in list views, like the list of Lightning Components in Setup, and in the Lightning App Builder and in Community Builder. targets : Specifies wher
