I'm building a VueJS component which needs to update the data attributes when a prop is updated however, it's not working as I am expecting.
Basically, the flow is that someone searches for a contact via an autocomplete component I have, and if there's a match an event is emitted to the parent component.
That contact will belong to an organisation and I pass the data down to the organisation component which updates the data attributes. However it's not updating them.
The prop being passed to the organisation component is updated (via the event) but the data attibute values is not showing this change.
This is an illustration of my component's structure...
Here is my code...
Parent component
<template>
<div>
<blink-contact
:contact="contact"
v-on:contactSelected="setContact">
</blink-contact>
<blink-organisation
:organisation="organisation"
v-on:organisationSelected="setOrganisation">
</blink-organisation>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import BlinkContact from './BlinkContact.vue'
import BlinkOrganisation from './BlinkOrganisation.vue'
export default {
components: {BlinkContact, BlinkOrganisation},
props: [
'contact_id', 'contact_name', 'contact_tel', 'contact_email',
'organisation_id', 'organisation_name'
],
data () {
return {
contact: {
id: this.contact_id,
name: this.contact_name,
tel: this.contact_tel,
email: this.contact_email
},
organisation: {
id: this.organisation_id,
name: this.organisation_name
}
}
},
methods: {
setContact (contact) {
this.contact = contact
this.setOrganisation(contact.organisation)
},
setOrganisation (organisation) {
this.organisation = organisation
}
}
}
</script>
Child component (blink-organisation)
<template>
<blink-org-search
field-name="organisation_id"
:values="values"
endpoint="/api/v1/blink/organisations"
:format="format"
:query="getQuery"
v-on:itemSelected="setItem">
</blink-org-search>
</template>
<script>
export default {
props: ['organisation'],
data() {
return {
values: {
id: this.organisation.id,
search: this.organisation.name
},
format: function (items) {
for (let item of items.results) {
item.display = item.name
item.resultsDisplay = item.name
}
return items.results
}
}
},
methods: {
setItem (item) {
this.$emit('organisationSelected', item)
}
}
}
</script>
How can I update the child component's data properties when the prop changes?
Thanks!
Use a watch.
watch: {
organisation(newValue){
this.values.id = newValue.id
this.values.search = newValue.name
}
}
In this case, however, it looks like you could just use a computed instead of a data property because all you are doing is passing values along to your search component.
computed:{
values(){
return {
id: this.organisation.id
search: this.organisation.name
}
}
}

Hello I have a component Carousel, and I have method:
carousel () {
return this.$refs.carousel
}
When I try pass to prop of other component, I get undefined in prop data, why?
<Dots :carousel="carousel()" />
In child component I have:
export default {
name: 'Dots',
props: ['carousel']
}
In mounted when I try call console.log(this.carousel), I get undifined. But I need get a component data of Carousel. How I can do it?
Sandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/flamboyant-monad-5bhjz?file=/src/components/Test.vue
You can set a function in carousel to return the data you want to send to dots. Then, in the parent component, set its return value to an attribute in data which will be passed as a prop:
const dotsComponent = Vue.component('dotsComponent', {
template: '#dotsComponent',
props: ['carousel']
});
const carouselComponent = Vue.component('carouselComponent', {
template: '#carouselComponent',
data() { return { id:1 } },
methods: {
getData() { return { id: this.id } }
}
});
new Vue({
el: "#app",
components: { dotsComponent, carouselComponent },
data() { return { carousel:null } },
mounted() { this.carousel = this.$refs.carousel.getData(); }
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/vue/2.5.17/vue.js"></script>
<div id="app">
<div><carousel-component ref="carousel"/></div>
<div><dots-component :carousel="carousel"/></div>
</div>
<template id="dotsComponent"><p>Dots: {{carousel}}</p></template>
<template id="carouselComponent"><p>Carousel</p></template>
You could pass the ref directly without using a method any other property :
<Dots :carousel="$refs.carousel" />
I need a Vue component to show some HTML content in v-data-table from Vuetify. I have seen this post Vue 2 contentEditable with v-model, and I created a similar code shown below.
My problem is the component is not reactive. When I click the "Test button", no content is updated in HtmlTextArea.
<template>
<div>
<v-btn #click="doTest()">Test Button</v-btn>
<HtmlTextArea
v-model="content"
style="max-height:50px;overflow-y: scroll;"
></HtmlTextArea>
</div>
<template>
export default {
name: "ModelosAtestados",
components: { HtmlTextArea },
data: () => ({
content: "",
}),
methods: {
doTest() {
this.content = "kjsadlkjkasfdkjdsjkl";
},
},
};
//component
<template>
<div ref="editable" contenteditable="false" v-on="listeners"></div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: "HtmlTextArea",
props: {
value: {
type: String,
default: "",
},
},
computed: {
listeners() {
return { ...this.$listeners, input: this.onInput };
},
},
mounted() {
this.$refs.editable.innerHTML = this.value;
},
methods: {
onInput(e) {
this.$emit("input", e.target.innerHTML);
},
},
};
</script>
This occurs because HtmlTextArea sets the div contents to its value prop only in the mounted lifecycle hook, which is not reactive.
The fix is to setup a watcher on value, so that the div contents are updated to match whenever a change occurs:
// HtmlTextArea.vue
export default {
watch: {
value: {
handler(value) {
this.$refs.editable.innerHTML = value;
}
}
}
}

In the #click event binder, you have to pass a function. You passed the result of an executed function.
To make it work: #click="doTest" or #click="() => doTest()".
How to debug such problems:
Display the value you want to update on your template to check if its updated: {{content}}
Use the vue devtool extension to check the current state of your components
I've got a problem with state in component. I have websocket and over it come changes, which I put it in some state. It's ok in one component, it dynamically changes value. But, when I go to the next component (vue-router). Its state changes as well, but is not dynamic. hmmmmm... in console.log changes coming, but not change value in another component.
How can I make it?
Let's see some code:
Here my action, with change states
actions: {
play(ctx, array){
axios.get('http://localhost/task_run?task_id='+array.id)
var conn = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:8080', "protocol");
conn.onmessage = function (ev) {
ctx.commit('procent', {key:array.key, val:ev.data});
ctx.commit('procentOne', {key:array.key, val:ev.data});
console.log('Message: ', ev);
};
},
},
mutations: {
procent(state, val){
var array = JSON.parse(val.val);
state.process[val.key] = array.procent;
state.processOnePersone[array.comp] = array.procent;
}
},
state: {
process: [],
processOnePersone:[],
},
getters: {
process(state){
return state.process
},
processOnePersone(state){
return state.processOnePersone;
}
}
I have one compenent, where it works
<v-progress-circular
:rotate="-90"
:size="50"
:width="5"
:value="process[key]"
color="primary"
>
{{ process[key] }}
</v-progress-circular>
<script>
import {mapGetters} from 'vuex';
export default {
name: 'taskListComponent',
computed: {
...mapGetters(['process',]),
},
}
And component where it doesn't work
<v-progress-circular
:rotate="-90"
:size="50"
:width="5"
:value="processOnePersone[key]"
color="primary"
>
{{ processOnePersone[key] }}
</v-progress-circular>
<script>
import {mapGetters} from 'vuex';
export default {
name: 'queueComponent',
computed: {
...mapGetters(['processOnePersone',]),
},
}
I'm trying to build a form using "v-for" for input component and then generate a pdf file with PDFMake using data from inputs. But I didn't know how to pass the data from input component back to parent.
I read a lot of topics, but can't find a way to do this.
Here is short code without additional inputs, checkboxes etc. I plan to use around 15 inputs with different parameters to generate final PDF. Some of parameters also will be used to change final data depending of conditional statements.
Everything is work fine if code in one file, without loop and components. But not now.
Here is parent:
<template lang="pug">
.form
Input(v-for="data in form.client_info" v-bind:key="data.id" v-bind:data="data")
button(#click="pdfgen") Download PDF
</template>
<script>
export default {
components: {
Input: () => import('#/components/items/form/input')
},
data() {
return {
client_name: '',
client_email: '',
form: {
client_info: [
{id:'client_name', title:'Name'},
{id:'client_email', title: 'Email'},
{id:'foo', title: 'foo'}
],
}
}
},
methods: {
pdfgen: function () {
var pdfMake = require('pdfmake/build/pdfmake.js')
if (pdfMake.vfs == undefined) {
var pdfFonts = require('pdfmake/build/vfs_fonts.js')
pdfMake.vfs = pdfFonts.pdfMake.vfs;
}
if (this.foo) {
var foo = [
'Foo: ' + this.foo
];
} else {
foo = ''
]
}
var docDefinition = {
content: [
'Name: ' + this.client_name,
'Email: ' + this.client_email,
'\n',
foo
]
}
pdfMake.createPdf(docDefinition).download('Demo.pdf');
}
}
}
</script>
Here is a children (Input component):
<template lang="pug">
label.form_item
span.form_item_title {{ data.title }}
input.form_item_input(:v-model="data.id" type="text")
</template>
<script>
export default {
props: ['data']
}
</script>
Any ideas how to make it work?
You'll want to use a method that vue has build-in named $emit().
Before going into how to do that, a quick explanation. Because vue attempts to make data flow one-directional there is not a super quick way to just pass data back to a parent. What Vue proposes instead is to pass a method to the child component that, when called, will 'emit' the value it changed to it's parent and the parent can then do what it wants with that value.
So, in your parent component you'll want to add a method that will handle a change when the child emits. This could look something like:
onChildValueChanged(value){ this.someValue = value }
The value we passed to the function will be coming from our child component. We will need to define in our child component what this function should do. In your child component you could have a function that looks like so:
emitValueChange(event){ this.$emit('childFunctionCall', this.someChildValue) }
Next we need to tie those two functions together by adding an attribute on our child template. In this example that might look like:
<Child :parentData="someData" v-on:childFunctionCall="onChildValueChanged"></Child>
What that above template is doing is saying that when the function on:childFunctionCall is 'emited' then our function in the parent scope should fire.
Finally, in the child template we just need to add some event that calls out emiter. That could look like:
<button v-on:click="emitToParent">This is a button</button>
So when our button is clicked, the emiter is called. This triggers the function in our child component named 'emitToParent' which in turn calls the function we passed to our child component.
You'll have to tailor your use case to match the exam
I found a solution using Vuex.
So now my components look like this.
Here is parent:
<template lang="pug">
.form
Input(v-for="data in formClient" v-bind:key="data.id" v-bind:data="data")
button(#click="pdfgen") Download PDF
</template>
<script>
export default {
components: {
Input: () => import('#/components/items/form/input'),
store: () => import('#/store'),
},
computed: {
formClient() { return this.$store.getters.client }
}
}
</script>
Here is a children (Input component):
<template lang="pug">
label.form_item
span.form_item_title {{ data.title }}
input.form_item_input(v-model="data.value" :type="data.input_type")
</template>
<script>
export default {
props: ['data'],
computed: {
form: {
get () {
return this.$store.state.obj.message
},
set (value) {
this.$store.commit('updateMessage', value)
}
}
}
}
</script>
Here is a store module:
<script>
export default {
actions: {},
mutations: {},
state: {
form: {
client: [
{id:'client_name', title:'Name', value: ''},
{id:'client_email', title: 'Email', value: ''},
{id:'foo', title: 'foo', value: ''}
]
}
},
getters: {
client: state => {
return state.form.client;
}
}
}
</script>
Now I can read updated data from store directly from PDFMake function.
I've a dynamic view:
<div id="myview">
<div :is="currentComponent"></div>
</div>
with an associated Vue instance:
new Vue ({
data: function () {
return {
currentComponent: 'myComponent',
}
},
}).$mount('#myview');
This allows me to change my component dynamically.
In my case, I have three different components: myComponent, myComponent1, and myComponent2. And I switch between them like this:
Vue.component('myComponent', {
template: "<button #click=\"$parent.currentComponent = 'myComponent1'\"></button>"
}
Now, I'd like to pass props to myComponent1.
How can I pass these props when I change the component type to myComponent1?
To pass props dynamically, you can add the v-bind directive to your dynamic component and pass an object containing your prop names and values:
So your dynamic component would look like this:
<component :is="currentComponent" v-bind="currentProperties"></component>
And in your Vue instance, currentProperties can change based on the current component:
data: function () {
return {
currentComponent: 'myComponent',
}
},
computed: {
currentProperties: function() {
if (this.currentComponent === 'myComponent') {
return { foo: 'bar' }
}
}
}
So now, when the currentComponent is myComponent, it will have a foo property equal to 'bar'. And when it isn't, no properties will be passed.
You can also do without computed property and inline the object.
<div v-bind="{ id: someProp, 'other-attr': otherProp }"></div>
Shown in the docs on V-Bind - https://v2.vuejs.org/v2/api/#v-bind
You could build it like...
comp: { component: 'ComponentName', props: { square: true, outlined: true, dense: true }, model: 'form.bar' }
<component :is="comp.component" v-bind="{...comp.props}" v-model="comp.model"/>
I have the same challenge, fixed by the following:
<component :is="currentComponent" v-bind="resetProps">
{{ title }}
</component>
and the script is
export default {
…
props:['title'],
data() {
return {
currentComponent: 'component-name',
}
},
computed: {
resetProps() {
return { ...this.$attrs };
},
}
<div
:color="'error'"
:onClick="handleOnclick"
:title="'Title'"
/>
I'm came from reactjs and I found this solve my issue
If you have imported you code through require
var patientDetailsEdit = require('../patient-profile/patient-profile-personal-details-edit')
and initalize the data instance as below
data: function () {
return {
currentView: patientDetailsEdit,
}
you can also reference the component through the name property if you r component has it assigned
currentProperties: function() {
if (this.currentView.name === 'Personal-Details-Edit') {
return { mode: 'create' }
}
}
When you use the <component> inside a v-for you can change the answer of thanksd as follow:
methods: {
getCurrentProperties(component) {
if (component === 'myComponent') {
return {foo: baz};
}
}
},
usage
<div v-for="object in object.items" :key="object._your_id">
<component :is="object.component" v-bind="getCurrentProperties(object.component)" />
</div>
Let me know if there is an easier way.
