Warning `[Vue warn]: Invalid VNode type: undefined (undefined)` in `QTable`.

[maarteNNNN]

What happened?

I tried making a Codepen with an example however it's only happening in the Quasar CLI . I'm getting recursive errors of Vue warn]: Invalid VNode type: undefined (undefined) on both examples (one is commented). Until finally the a warning pops:

runtime-core.esm-bundler.js?9e79:38 [Vue warn]: Maximum recursive updates exceeded in component <QTable>. This means you have a reactive effect that is mutating its own dependencies and thus recursively triggering itself. Possible sources include component template, render function, updated hook or watcher source function.

NOTE: This is done with the Quasar CLI with Typescript. I tried to minimize the problem. The template is an exact copy of Selection cell slots. I tried this in a bare minimum project with Typescript.

EDIT: Seems I could make it so the Codepen is acting weird as well. However it's not showing the same warnings... It simply loads sometimes, other times it doesn't.

You can test it by visiting it in a private tab, another device, etc. Please edit your original post above and provide a valid reproduction URL as explained.

Without a proper reproduction, your issue will have to get closed.

Thank you for your collaboration. 👏

I have same problem with Quasar

[TonyMale]

I resolve this problem. Your property 'product' is Array. That call recursive update and crashes project in production. You can use function format in columns.

For example

const columns = [
  { name: 'description', label: 'description', field: 'description' },
  { name: 'class', label: 'class', field: 'class' },
  { name: 'creator', label: 'creator', field: 'creator' },
  { name: 'products', label: 'products', field: 'products', format: (val) => val.reduce((acc, curr) => acc + curr.product, '') },
];

[petr-panek]

I had a same problem. Thank you @TonyMale for solution.

[syldman]

another way is to use 'item' slot to override built-in rendering method
