I understand we can change a C# property value in Blazor from JavaScript by invoking the method DotNet.invokeMethodAsync. I have the below working but in this method I want to also call a non static method.
JS File:
[script.js] function ChangeContentJS() { DotNet.invokeMethodAsync('InvokeFromJsApp', "ChangeParaContentValue", "New Content"); }
Razor page:
[Index.razor] @page "/" @inject IJSRuntime JSRuntime <h1>Change C# property value from JavaScript</h1> <br /> <button @onclick='ButtonClickHandler'>Change Content - JS</button> <br /> <p>@ParaContent</p> @code { public static string ParaContent = "Some Text Content"; public async Task ButtonClickHandler() { await JSRuntime.InvokeAsync<string>("ChangeContentJS"); } [JSInvokable] public static void ChangeParaContentValue(string value) { ParaContent = value; RunNewCode(); //DOESNT WORK AS ITS A NON-STATIC METHOD } public void RunNewCode() { jsRuntime.InvokeVoidAsync("RunFunction"); } }
I am trying to run a non static method in a static method (IN BLAZOR APPLICATION). How can I call this method?
I attempted to make the following method static and got the below error:
public static void RunNewCode() { jsRuntime.InvokeVoidAsync("RunFunction"); }
CS0120: An object reference is required for the nonstatic field, method, or property ‘JSRuntime’
How do I make this static: @inject IJSRuntime JSRuntime

Answer
That’s actually described in the docs
summery:
create a static Action
for the update and register the local instance
private static Func<string, Task> ChangeParaContentActionAsync; private async Task LocalChangeParaContentValueAsync(string value) { ParaContent = value; await jsRuntime.InvokeVoidAsync("RunFunction"); } protected override void OnInitialized() { base.OnInitialized(); ChangeParaContentActionAsync = LocalChangeParaContentValueAsync; } [JSInvokable] public static async Task ChangeParaContentValue(string value) { await ChangeParaContentActionAsync?.Invoke(value); }
(not tested)
NOTE It is important to remember that you can still invoke the JSInvokable method even if the component is not loaded (i.e. no instance). This might infer undefined behavior!
edit: changed to async Task
, due to the async InvokeVoidAsync
method
