Polymer 2 : component doesn't render

I'm trying to create a Polymer element using the CLI. My component is really simple but the demo is blank.

It was working and I can't figure out what I've changed. After searching around the internet I think the problem is a wrong path or a wrong name (case sensitivity ?).

But I haven't found anything.

There isn't any error in the console and since I don't really know what code to link here, I've created a repo to share this little element.

The code is very little. I think sharing the 'hole' element is the easiest way.

Thanks a lot.

Solution

  • You are not calling super.ready() in your ready callback.

    This is required because the Polymer.Element declares a ready function to initialise the elements template and data system. As you are overriding this function, you need to call the super class function to initialise your element.

    See the info on initialisation.

    Without super.ready()

    Before

    With call to super.ready()

    After

    I also noticed that in your handleClick function, you have mis-typed the function you wish to call.
