JavaScript isolation in JavaScript modules

Blazor enables JavaScript (JS) isolation in standard JavaScript modules (ECMAScript specification). JavaScript module loading works the same way in Blazor as it does for other types of web apps, and you're free to customize how modules are defined in your app. For a guide on how to use JavaScript modules, see MDN Web Docs: JavaScript modules.

JS isolation provides the following benefits:

• Imported JS no longer pollutes the global namespace.
• Consumers of a library and components aren't required to import the related JS.

Dynamic import with the import() operator is supported with ASP.NET Core and Blazor:

if ({CONDITION}) import("/additionalModule.js");

In the preceding example, the {CONDITION} placeholder represents a conditional check to determine if the module should be loaded.

For browser compatibility, see Can I use: JavaScript modules: dynamic import.

In server-side scenarios, JS interop calls can't be issued after Blazor's SignalR circuit is disconnected. Without a circuit during component disposal or at any other time that a circuit doesn't exist, the following method calls fail and log a message that the circuit is disconnected as a JSDisconnectedException:

• JS interop method calls
  • IJSRuntime.InvokeAsync
  • JSRuntimeExtensions.InvokeAsync
  • JSRuntimeExtensions.InvokeVoidAsync)
• Dispose/DisposeAsync calls on any IJSObjectReference.

In order to avoid logging JSDisconnectedException or to log custom information in server-side Blazor, catch the exception in a try-catch statement.

For the following component disposal example:

• The server-side component implements IAsyncDisposable.
• module is an IJSObjectReference for a JS module.
• JSDisconnectedException is caught and not logged.
• Optionally, you can log custom information in the catch statement at whatever log level you prefer. The following example doesn't log custom information. The code assumes that the developer doesn't care about when or where circuits are disconnected during component disposal.

async ValueTask IAsyncDisposable.DisposeAsync()
{
    try
    {
        if (module is not null)
        {
            await module.DisposeAsync();
        }
    }
    catch (JSDisconnectedException)
    {
    }
}

If you must clean up your own JS objects or execute other JS code on the client after a circuit is lost in a server-side Blazor app, use the MutationObserver pattern in JS on the client. The MutationObserver pattern allows you to execute JS code when an element is removed from the DOM.

For more information, see the following articles:

• ASP.NET Core Blazor JavaScript interoperability (JS interop): Includes a code example of the MutationObserver pattern.
• Handle errors in ASP.NET Core Blazor apps: The JavaScript interop section discusses error handling in JS interop scenarios.
• ASP.NET Core Razor component lifecycle: The Component disposal with IDisposable and IAsyncDisposable section describes how to implement disposal patterns in Razor components.

The following JS module exports a JS function for showing a browser window prompt. Place the following JS code in an external JS file.

wwwroot/scripts.js:

export function showPrompt(message) {
  return prompt(message, 'Type anything here');
}

Add the preceding JS module to an app or class library as a static web asset in the wwwroot folder and then import the module into the .NET code by calling InvokeAsync on the IJSRuntime instance.

IJSRuntime imports the module as an IJSObjectReference, which represents a reference to a JS object from .NET code. Use the IJSObjectReference to invoke exported JS functions from the module.

In the preceding example:

• By convention, the import identifier is a special identifier used specifically for importing a JS module.
• Specify the module's external JS file using its stable static web asset path: ./{SCRIPT PATH AND FILE NAME (.js)}, where:
  • The path segment for the current directory (./) is required in order to create the correct static asset path to the JS file.
  • The {SCRIPT PATH AND FILE NAME (.js)} placeholder is the path and file name under wwwroot.
• Disposes the IJSObjectReference for garbage collection in IAsyncDisposable.DisposeAsync.

Dynamically importing a module requires a network request, so it can only be achieved asynchronously by calling InvokeAsync.

IJSInProcessObjectReference represents a reference to a JS object whose functions can be invoked synchronously in client-side components. For more information, see the Synchronous JS interop in client-side components section.

module = await js.InvokeAsync<IJSObjectReference>(
    "import", "./_content/ComponentLibrary/scripts.js");

Throughout the Blazor documentation, examples use the .js file extension for module files, not the newer .mjs file extension (RFC 9239). Our documentation continues to use the .js file extension for the same reasons the Mozilla Foundation's documentation continues to use the .js file extension. For more information, see Aside — .mjs versus .js (MDN documentation).

JavaScript libraries that render UI

Sometimes you may wish to use JavaScript (JS) libraries that produce visible user interface elements within the browser DOM. At first glance, this might seem difficult because Blazor's diffing system relies on having control over the tree of DOM elements and runs into errors if some external code mutates the DOM tree and invalidates its mechanism for applying diffs. This isn't a Blazor-specific limitation. The same challenge occurs with any diff-based UI framework.

Fortunately, it's straightforward to embed externally-generated UI within a Razor component UI reliably. The recommended technique is to have the component's code (.razor file) produce an empty element. As far as Blazor's diffing system is concerned, the element is always empty, so the renderer does not recurse into the element and instead leaves its contents alone. This makes it safe to populate the element with arbitrary externally-managed content.

The following example demonstrates the concept. Within the if statement when firstRender is true, interact with unmanagedElement outside of Blazor using JS interop. For example, call an external JS library to populate the element. Blazor leaves the element's contents alone until this component is removed. When the component is removed, the component's entire DOM subtree is also removed.

<h1>Hello! This is a Razor component rendered at @DateTime.Now</h1>

<div @ref="unmanagedElement"></div>

@code {
    private ElementReference unmanagedElement;

    protected override async Task OnAfterRenderAsync(bool firstRender)
    {
        if (firstRender)
        {
            ...
        }
    }
}

Consider the following example that renders an interactive map using open-source Mapbox APIs.

The following JS module is placed into the app or made available from a Razor class library.

wwwroot/mapComponent.js:

import 'https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v1.12.0/mapbox-gl.js';

mapboxgl.accessToken = '{ACCESS TOKEN}';

export function addMapToElement(element) {
  return new mapboxgl.Map({
    container: element,
    style: 'mapbox://styles/mapbox/streets-v11',
    center: [-74.5, 40],
    zoom: 9
  });
}

export function setMapCenter(map, latitude, longitude) {
  map.setCenter([longitude, latitude]);
}

To produce correct styling, add the following stylesheet tag to the host HTML page.

Add the following <link> element to the <head> element markup (location of <head> content):

<link href="https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v1.12.0/mapbox-gl.css" 
    rel="stylesheet" />

    private IJSObjectReference? mapModule;
    private IJSObjectReference? mapInstance;

    protected override async Task OnAfterRenderAsync(bool firstRender)
    {
        if (firstRender)
        {
            mapModule = await JS.InvokeAsync<IJSObjectReference>(
                "import", "./mapComponent.js");
            mapInstance = await mapModule.InvokeAsync<IJSObjectReference>(
                "addMapToElement", mapElement);
        }
    }

    private async Task ShowAsync(double latitude, double longitude)
    {
        if (mapModule is not null && mapInstance is not null)
        {
            await mapModule.InvokeVoidAsync("setMapCenter", mapInstance, 
                latitude, longitude);
        }
    }

    async ValueTask IAsyncDisposable.DisposeAsync()
    {
        if (mapInstance is not null)
        {
            await mapInstance.DisposeAsync();
        }

        if (mapModule is not null)
        {
            await mapModule.DisposeAsync();
        }
    }
}

The preceding example produces an interactive map UI. The user:

• Can drag to scroll or zoom.
• Select buttons to jump to predefined locations.

In the preceding example:

• The <div> with @ref="mapElement" is left empty as far as Blazor is concerned. The mapbox-gl.js script can safely populate the element and modify its contents. Use this technique with any JS library that renders UI. You can embed components from a third-party JS SPA framework inside Razor components, as long as they don't try to reach out and modify other parts of the page. It is not safe for external JS code to modify elements that Blazor does not regard as empty.
• When using this approach, bear in mind the rules about how Blazor retains or destroys DOM elements. The component safely handles button click events and updates the existing map instance because DOM elements are retained where possible. If you were rendering a list of map elements from inside a @foreach loop, you want to use @key to ensure the preservation of component instances. Otherwise, changes in the list data could cause component instances to retain the state of previous instances in an undesirable manner. For more information, see how to use the @key directive attribute to preserve the relationship among elements, components, and model objects.
• The example encapsulates JS logic and dependencies within a JavaScript module and loads the module dynamically using the import identifier. For more information, see JavaScript isolation in JavaScript modules.

Byte array support

Blazor supports optimized byte array JavaScript (JS) interop that avoids encoding/decoding byte arrays into Base64. The following example uses JS interop to pass a byte array to JavaScript.

Provide a receiveByteArray JS function. The function is called with InvokeVoidAsync and doesn't return a value:

<script>
  window.receiveByteArray = (bytes) => {
    let utf8decoder = new TextDecoder();
    let str = utf8decoder.decode(bytes);
    return str;
  };
</script>

Stream from .NET to JavaScript

Blazor supports streaming data directly from .NET to JavaScript (JS). Streams are created using a DotNetStreamReference.

DotNetStreamReference represents a .NET stream and uses the following parameters:

• stream: The stream sent to JS.
• leaveOpen: Determines if the stream is left open after transmission. If a value isn't provided, leaveOpen defaults to false.

In JS, use an array buffer or a readable stream to receive the data:

• Using an ArrayBuffer:

  async function streamToJavaScript(streamRef) {
    const data = await streamRef.arrayBuffer();
  }
  

• Using a ReadableStream:

  async function streamToJavaScript(streamRef) {
    const stream = await streamRef.stream();
  }
  

In C# code:

var streamRef = new DotNetStreamReference(stream: {STREAM}, leaveOpen: false);
await JS.InvokeVoidAsync("streamToJavaScript", streamRef);

In the preceding example:

• The {STREAM} placeholder represents the Stream sent to JS.
• JS is an injected IJSRuntime instance.

Disposing a DotNetStreamReference instance is usually unnecessary. When leaveOpen is set to its default value of false, the underlying Stream is automatically disposed after transmission to JS.

If leaveOpen is true, then disposing a DotNetStreamReference doesn't dispose its underlying Stream. The app's code determines when to dispose the underlying Stream. When deciding how to dispose the underlying Stream, consider the following:

• Disposing a Stream while it's being transmitted to JS is considered an application error and may cause an unhandled exception to occur.
• Stream transmission begins as soon as the DotNetStreamReference is passed as an argument to a JS interop call, regardless of whether the stream is actually used in JS logic.

Given these characteristics, we recommend disposing the underlying Stream only after it's fully consumed by JS (the promise returned by arrayBuffer or stream resolves). It follows that a DotNetStreamReference should only be passed to JS if it's unconditionally going to be consumed by JS logic.

Call .NET methods from JavaScript functions in ASP.NET Core Blazor covers the reverse operation, streaming from JavaScript to .NET.

Abort a long-running JavaScript function

Use a JS AbortController with a CancellationTokenSource in the component to abort a long-running JavaScript function from C# code.

The following JS Helpers class contains a simulated long-running function, longRunningFn, to count continuously until the AbortController.signal indicates that AbortController.abort has been called. The sleep function is for demonstration purposes to simulate slow execution of the long-running function and wouldn't be present in production code. When a component calls stopFn, the longRunningFn is signalled to abort via the while loop conditional check on AbortSignal.aborted.

<script>
  class Helpers {
    static #controller = new AbortController();

    static async #sleep(ms) {
      return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
    }

    static async longRunningFn() {
      var i = 0;
      while (!this.#controller.signal.aborted) {
        i++;
        console.log(`longRunningFn: ${i}`);
        await this.#sleep(1000);
      }
    }

    static stopFn() {
      this.#controller.abort();
      console.log('longRunningFn aborted!');
    }
  }

  window.Helpers = Helpers;
</script>

The following component:

• Invokes the JS function longRunningFn when the Start Task button is selected. A CancellationTokenSource is used to manage the execution of the long-running function. CancellationToken.Register sets a JS interop call delegate to execute the JS function stopFn when the CancellationTokenSource.Token is cancelled.
• When the Cancel Task button is selected, the CancellationTokenSource.Token is cancelled with a call to Cancel.
• The CancellationTokenSource is disposed in the Dispose method.

CallJs12.razor:

@page "/call-js-12"
@inject IJSRuntime JS

<h1>Cancel long-running JS interop</h1>

<p>
    <button @onclick="StartTask">Start Task</button>
    <button @onclick="CancelTask">Cancel Task</button>
</p>

@code {
    private CancellationTokenSource? cts;

    private async Task StartTask()
    {
        cts = new CancellationTokenSource();
        cts.Token.Register(() => JS.InvokeVoidAsync("Helpers.stopFn"));

        await JS.InvokeVoidAsync("Helpers.longRunningFn");
    }

    private void CancelTask()
    {
        cts?.Cancel();
    }

    public void Dispose()
    {
        cts?.Cancel();
        cts?.Dispose();
    }
}

CallJsExample12.razor:

@page "/call-js-example-12"
@inject IJSRuntime JS

<h1>Cancel long-running JS interop</h1>

<p>
    <button @onclick="StartTask">Start Task</button>
    <button @onclick="CancelTask">Cancel Task</button>
</p>

@code {
    private CancellationTokenSource? cts;

    private async Task StartTask()
    {
        cts = new CancellationTokenSource();
        cts.Token.Register(() => JS.InvokeVoidAsync("Helpers.stopFn"));

        await JS.InvokeVoidAsync("Helpers.longRunningFn");
    }

    private void CancelTask()
    {
        cts?.Cancel();
    }

    public void Dispose()
    {
        cts?.Cancel();
        cts?.Dispose();
    }
}

A browser's developer tools console indicates the execution of the long-running JS function after the Start Task button is selected and when the function is aborted after the Cancel Task button is selected:

longRunningFn: 1
longRunningFn: 2
longRunningFn: 3
longRunningFn aborted!

JavaScript [JSImport]/[JSExport] interop

This section applies to client-side components.

As an alternative to interacting with JavaScript (JS) in client-side components using Blazor's JS interop mechanism based on the IJSRuntime interface, a JS [JSImport]/[JSExport] interop API is available to apps targeting .NET 7 or later.

For more information, see JavaScript JSImport/JSExport interop with ASP.NET Core Blazor.

Unmarshalled JavaScript interop

This section applies to client-side components.

Unmarshalled interop using the IJSUnmarshalledRuntime interface is obsolete and should be replaced with JavaScript [JSImport]/[JSExport] interop.

For more information, see JavaScript JSImport/JSExport interop with ASP.NET Core Blazor.

Unmarshalled JavaScript interop

Blazor WebAssembly components may experience poor performance when .NET objects are serialized for JavaScript (JS) interop and either of the following are true:

• A high volume of .NET objects are rapidly serialized. For example, poor performance may result when JS interop calls are made on the basis of moving an input device, such as spinning a mouse wheel.
• Large .NET objects or many .NET objects must be serialized for JS interop. For example, poor performance may result when JS interop calls require serializing dozens of files.

IJSUnmarshalledObjectReference represents a reference to an JS object whose functions can be invoked without the overhead of serializing .NET data.

In the following example:

• A struct containing a string and an integer is passed unserialized to JS.
• JS functions process the data and return either a boolean or string to the caller.
• A JS string isn't directly convertible into a .NET string object. The unmarshalledFunctionReturnString function calls BINDING.js_string_to_mono_string to manage the conversion of a JS string.

<script>
  window.returnObjectReference = () => {
    return {
      unmarshalledFunctionReturnBoolean: function (fields) {
        const name = Blazor.platform.readStringField(fields, 0);
        const year = Blazor.platform.readInt32Field(fields, 8);

        return name === "Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart" &&
            year === 1968;
      },
      unmarshalledFunctionReturnString: function (fields) {
        const name = Blazor.platform.readStringField(fields, 0);
        const year = Blazor.platform.readInt32Field(fields, 8);

        return BINDING.js_string_to_mono_string(`Hello, ${name} (${year})!`);
      }
    };
  }

If an IJSUnmarshalledObjectReference instance isn't disposed in C# code, it can be disposed in JS. The following dispose function disposes the object reference when called from JS:

window.exampleJSObjectReferenceNotDisposedInCSharp = () => {
  return {
    dispose: function () {
      DotNet.disposeJSObjectReference(this);
    },

    ...
  };
}

Array types can be converted from JS objects into .NET objects using js_typed_array_to_array, but the JS array must be a typed array. Arrays from JS can be read in C# code as a .NET object array (object[]).

Other data types, such as string arrays, can be converted but require creating a new Mono array object (mono_obj_array_new) and setting its value (mono_obj_array_set).
