[Vuejs]-Vue.js – passing value from parent to child does not work (as expected)

0👍

But its work.. I see selected image preview

const Preview = Vue.component('ImagePreview', {
  data: () => {
    return {
      image_url: ""
    }
  },
  template: `
    <section>
      <span>{{ setImage(msg) }}</span><!-- This I would like to avoid -->
      <img :src="image_url" alt=""/>
    </section>
  `,
  props: [ "msg" ],
  methods: {
    setImage(data) {
      const reader = new FileReader();
      reader.onload = (event) => {
        this.image_url = event.target.result;
      };
      reader.readAsDataURL(data);
      return null;
    }
  }
});


new Vue({
  name: "ProductAdd",
  components: {Preview},
  data() {
    return {
      files: []
    }
  },
  methods: {
    addFile() {
      for (let i = 0; i < this.$refs.files.files.length; i++) {
        const file = this.$refs.files.files[i]
        this.files.push( file );
      }
    },
    async send() {
      /// Sending data to API
    }
  }
}).$mount('#container');
