# vue/no-bare-strings-in-template

disallow the use of bare strings in <template>

# 📖 Rule Details

This rule disallows the use of bare strings in <template>.
In order to be able to internationalize your application, you will need to avoid using plain strings in your templates. Instead, you would need to use a template helper specializing in translation.

This rule was inspired by no-bare-strings rule in ember-template-lint (opens new window).

<template> <!-- ✓ GOOD --> <h1>{{ $t('foo.bar') }}</h1> <h1>{{ foo }}</h1> <h1 v-t="'foo.bar'"></h1> <!-- ✗ BAD --> <h1>Lorem ipsum</h1> <div title="Lorem ipsum" aria-label="Lorem ipsum" aria-placeholder="Lorem ipsum" aria-roledescription="Lorem ipsum" aria-valuetext="Lorem ipsum" /> <img alt="Lorem ipsum"> <input placeholder="Lorem ipsum"> <h1 v-text="'Lorem ipsum'" /> <!-- Does not check --> <h1>{{ 'Lorem ipsum' }}</h1> <div v-bind:title="'Lorem ipsum'" /> </template>

TIP

This rule does not check for string literals, in bindings and mustaches interpolation. This is because it looks like a conscious decision.
If you want to report these string literals, enable the vue/no-useless-v-bind and vue/no-useless-mustaches rules and fix the useless string literals.
