Depending on your environment you'll want to use render or include. As a rule of thumb: server-side use include, precompiled browser use render. If you're using vf-eleventy you should use include.

Using include

You'll need to pass a context object from your code or Yaml file (example), as well as the path to the Nunjucks template. Nunjucks' include is an abstraction of render and provides some additional portability.

{% set context fromYourYamlFile %}
- or -
{% set context = { 
"component-type" : "form",
 }
%}
{% include "../path_to/vf-form__select/vf-form__select.njk" %}
                

Using render

This approach is best for bare-bones Nunjucks environments, such as precompiled templates with the Nunjucks slim runtime where include is not be available.

{% render '@vf-form__select', {
  "component-type" : "form",}
%}
                

<div class="vf-form__item vf-stack">

  <label class="vf-form__label" for="vf-form__select">Choose a pet:</label>

  <select class="vf-form__select" id="vf-form__select">
    <option value="cat">Cat</option>
    <option value="hamster">Hamster</option>
    <option value="parrot">Parrot</option>
    <option value="dog" selected>Dog</option>
    <option value="spider">Spider</option>
    <option value="goldfish">Goldfish</option>
  </select>

</div>
