Help me solve with the problem please.
I am using jquery and jquery-ui to implement drag & drop in QASAR CLI.
But I ran into the fact that I cannot access the vue instance from jquery function events, since "this" no longer belongs to Vue, but refers to the selector element. Tell me how I can refer directly to the vue instance as it could be done in cdn version. There you could just give the name app = new Vue ... And then use it as app.data.variable
I believe this is more javascript question, than quasar/vue/jquery. You can easily set value of this by a bind function
let someFunction = function () {
console.log(this);
}
someFunction();
const obj = { 'test': 123 };
someFunction = someFunction.bind(obj);
someFunction();
Same thing applies to jquery function handlers. I guess you could pass your instance instead of obj
$(window).ready(function () {
console.log(this);
}.bind(obj));

I'm a novice.And I introduced vue.js file.Why would I report an error?
ERROR:Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'element')
......
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function () {
let height = this.$refs.element.offsetHeight;
console.log(height)
}
</script>
......
<nav ref="element">......</nav>
......
In your case "this" is referring to the Vue instance.
To access "this" you need to use it inside any hook of Vuejs where you would have access to "this".
On another hand, use arrow functions because arrow functions do not have their own "this" instance, therefore, arrow functions can use global "this" and in your situation global "this" would be the Vue instance.
For example, you can write this code inside the "mounted" hook like this-
mounted() {
window.onload = () => {
let height = this.$refs.element.offsetHeight;
console.log(height);
};
},
I'm trying to understand the solution in this SO post. The solution allows the user to keep track of the previous route in the current route.
Below is the snippet of Vue code that I'm trying to understand. If I understand correctly, next accepts a callback function that receives the current component's vue instance. We then set the prevRoute data property of this vue instance to from. Is this interpretation correct? If not, what is actually happening?
If someone could also add a brief explanation as to what the Vue API is doing behind the scenes that would also be very helpful for me to actually understand the snippet of code.
...
data() {
return {
...
prevRoute: null
}
},
beforeRouteEnter(to, from, next) {
next(vm => {
vm.prevRoute = from
})
},
...
As per the documentation...
The beforeRouteEnter guard does NOT have access to this, because the guard is called before the navigation is confirmed, thus the new entering component has not even been created yet.
However, you can access the instance by passing a callback to next. The callback will be called when the navigation is confirmed, and the component instance will be passed to the callback as the argument
So vm is the component instance assigned to the destination route.
From your question...
We then set the prevRoute data property of this vue instance to from. Is this interpretation correct?
Almost. All you're doing is setting a direct object property on the Vue component which is after all, just a JavaScript object at heart. For example
const vm = { name: 'I am totally a Vue component' }
vm.prevRoute = from
This property will not be reactive but you can certainly access it within your component via this, just as you can other non-data properties like $el, $refs, etc.
According to the page on event handling in the docs for Vue, when you use v-on like v-on:click="handler" the handler function will automatically get the original DOM event as the first argument. This code snippet is directly adapted from those docs.
new Vue({
// Vue config shortened for brevity
methods: {
handler(event) {
// `this` inside methods points to the Vue instance
alert('Hello ' + this.name + '!')
// `event` is the native DOM event
if (event) {
alert(event.target.tagName)
}
}
}
})
Why the heck can I still access event even if I omit it from the functions parameter list like this:
handler() {
console.log(event); // Still returns the native DOM object even though
// I don't explicitly define `event` anywhere
}
Shouldn't event be undefined if I don't add it as an argument to the function?
I believe that'll be the global window.event:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/event
Nothing to do with Vue, it's just an unfortunate coincidence that you happened to call it event.
Maybe the docs explains the reason to use event in the handler function as first argument:
You should avoid using this property in new code, and should instead use the Event passed into the event handler function.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/event
Following this tutorial, I'm trying to programmatically create instances of a component on my page.
The main snippet is this:
import Button from 'Button.vue'
import Vue from 'vue'
var ComponentClass = Vue.extend(Button)
var instance = new ComponentClass()
instance.$mount()
this.$refs.container.appendChild(instance.$el)
However I get two errors:
The component I'm trying to instantiate contains references to the store, and these don't work: "TypeError: Cannot read property 'state' of undefined".
For the last line of the snippet (this.$refs.container.appendChild(instance.$el)) I get this error: "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'container' of undefined"
I'm really not sure how to troubleshoot this, if anyone strong in Vue.js could give me some hint as to why I'm getting these errors and to solve them that would be terrific.
1) Since you're manually instantiating that component and it doesn't belong to your main app's component tree, the store won't be automatically injected into it from your root component. You'll have to manually provide the store to the constructor when you instantiate the component ..
import ProjectRow from "./ProjectRow.vue";
import Vue from "vue";
import store from "../store";
let ProjectRowClass = Vue.extend(ProjectRow);
let ProjectRowInstance = new ProjectRowClass({ store });
2) In a Vue Single File Component (SFC), outside of the default export this doesn't refer to the Vue instance, so you don't have access to $refs or any other Vue instance property/method. To gain access to the Vue instance you'll need to move this line this.$refs.container.appendChild(instance.$el) somewhere inside the default export, for example in the mounted hook or inside one of your methods.
See this CodeSandbox for an example of how you may go about this.
This is another way to instantiate a component in Vue.js, you can use two different root elements.
// Instantiate you main app
var app = new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
message: 'Hello Vue!'
}
})
//
// Then instantiate your component dynamically
//
// Create a component or import it.
const Hello = {
props: ['text'],
template: '<div class="hello">{{ text }}</div>',
};
// Create a componentClass by Vue.
const HelloCtor = Vue.extend(Hello);
// Use componentClass to instantiate your component.
const vm = new HelloCtor({
propsData: {
text: 'HI :)'
}
})
// then mount it to an element.
.$mount('#mount');
It works by assigning "this" to the property "parent". By setting the parent you also have access to the $store in the new instance. (Provided that "this" is another Vue instance/Component and already has access to the store, of course)
new (Vue.extend(YourNewComponent))({
parent: this,
propsData: {
whatever: 'some value',
},
}).$mount(el.querySelector('.some-id'))
If you don't need the reference to the parent, you can just leave "parent: this," out.
Important note: When mounting many (like 500+) items on the page this way you will get a huge performance hit. It is better to only give the new Component the necessary stuff via props instead of giving it the entire "this" object.
I went down this path, following all the examples above, and even this one: https://css-tricks.com/creating-vue-js-component-instances-programmatically/
While I got far, and it works (I made a lot of components this way), at least for my case, it came with drawbacks. For example I'm using Vuetify at the same time, and the dynamically added components didn't belong to the outer form, which meant that while local (per component) validation worked, the form didn't receive the overall status. Another thing that did not work was to disable the form. With more work, passing the form as parent property, some of that got working, but what about removing components. That didn't go well. While they were invisible, they were not really removed (memory leak).
So I changed to use render functions. It is actually much easier, well documented (both Vue 2 and Vue 3), and everything just works. I also had good help from this project: https://koumoul-dev.github.io/vuetify-jsonschema-form/latest/
Basically, to add a function dynamically, just implement the render() function instead of using a template. Works a bit like React. You can implement any logic in here to choose the tag, the options, everything. Just return that, and Vue will build the shadow-DOM and keep the real DOM up to date.
The methods in here seems to manipulate the DOM directly, which I'm glad I no longer have to do.
I am trying to pass a function into recaptcha to be used as a callback. I need to write:
data-callback="function"
In Vue how do I add the function reference?
I've tried:
data-callback="{{ this.submitFocus }}"
data-callback="this.submitFocus"
I'm using Vue 2
Recaptcha2 uses the data-callback string to call a globally available function.
From what I can see in the documentation, it doesn't look like there's a programmatic way to set this so you might have to use something like this
beforeMount () {
window.submitFocus = () => { // using arrow function to preserve "this"
this.submitFocus()
}
},
beforeDestroy () {
delete window.submitFocus
}
with
data-callback="submitFocus"
in your template. The attribute value just needs to match the function added to window.
data-callback is an html attribute of a DOM element, it's just a string. It does not know about the context of your object instance, ie. this.
So, you can't use this when setting the attribute for your ReCaptcha, it will only understand functions that can be called without this.
If you had a function defined as
function submitFocus(){ ... }
globally, you could get ReCaptcha to call it by setting data-callback to submitFocus without the reference to this.
data-callback="submitFocus"
