This example has been updated to follow the Custom Elements v1 specification. The old example is available for reference.
One of the best ways to understand how to create a component is to see an example of one and how it's put together.
Here we've created a simple QR code generator that contains a JSON manifest file and two JavaScript files (one for the custom element, and one to generate the code). Download the example custom component as a .zip file. The .zip file contains three files:
- myqrcode.js – The custom element for the QR code generator. The .zip file contains the ES5-compatible version of this file, which differs from the code below.
- manifest.json – The JSON manifest for the component.
- qr.js – The JavaScript that generates the QR code.
You can also examine the customised element, the manifest file and the QR code generator below.
myqrcode.jsThe QR code uses the following JavaScript to create a custom element. Download the JavaScript for the custom element.
/** @fileoverview Implementation of the my-qrcode component. */ if (window.customElements && window.customElements.define) { class MyQrcode extends HTMLElement { constructor() { super(); this.img = null; } connectedCallback() { this.generateImage(); } static get observedAttributes() { return ['data']; } attributeChangedCallback(attributeName) { if (!this.img) { return; } switch (attributeName) { case 'data': this.generateImage(); break; } } generateImage() { const data = this.getAttribute('data'); if (data) { if (!this.img) { this.img = document.createElement('img'); this.img.style.height = '100%'; this.appendChild(this.img); } this.img.setAttribute('src', QRCode.generatePNG(data)); } } } customElements.define('my-qrcode', MyQrcode); }
This is the JSON manifest file for the QR code generator. It follows the component JSON manifest format. Download the example JSON manifest.

/* Quick overview: QR code composed of 2D array of modules (a rectangular
* area that conveys one bit of information); some modules are fixed to help
* the recognition of the code, and remaining data modules are further divided
* into 8-bit code words which are augumented by Reed-Solomon error correcting
* codes (ECC). There could be multiple ECCs, in the case the code is so large
* that it is helpful to split the raw data into several chunks.
*
* The number of modules is determined by the code's "version", ranging from 1
* (21x21) to 40 (177x177). How many ECC bits are used is determined by the
* ECC level (L/M/Q/H). The number and size (and thus the order of generator
* polynomial) of ECCs depend to the version and ECC level.
