In first component I have a function that changes the array using the value that is stored in VueX
methods: {
//get a function that changes the pickedlist array that is stored in vuex store
...mapActions([
'updatePickedDates'
]),
...mapGetters([
'dates'
]),
resetArray() {
this.updatePickedDates(this.dates}
}
In another component
I use getter from VueX that is passed on this array:
computed: {
...mapGetters(["managementNews"])
}
However when resetArray() function runs I get error that
state.pickedDates.includes is not a function
Here are the getters and mutations in my VueX store:
mutations: {
mutatePickedDates: (state, payload) => {
state.pickedDates=payload
}
},
actions: {
updatePickedDates({commit}, payload) {
commit('mutatePickedDates', payload)
}
},
modules: {
},
getters : {
//get news that are of type management
managementNews: function(state) {
return state.news.filter(i => i.type === "management" && state.pickedDates.includes(i.date));
},
dates: state => {
return state.dates
},
pickedDates: state => {
return state.pickedDates
}
},
In this case this.dates is a function and not an array. The error indicates that it's not undefined, yet it doesn't have includes method.
mapGetters should provide getters for computed properties. There's no way how mapGetters could be applied to methods and make this.dates to be an array.
It should be:
methods: {
...mapActions([
'updatePickedDates'
])
},
computed: {
...mapGetters([
'dates'
]),
}
I defined a getter in my store, and i try to access it within my child components, but i only can access it as a method...
I read in the doc we could access it as a property, but when im doing so, it returns me the signature of the getter function, here is my code :
const store = {
state: {
storage
},
getters: {
username: (state, getters) => {
return 'tmp';
}
}
}
My child component :
export default {
data() {
return {
username: this.initialUsername
}
},
methods: {
...mapMutations([
'login'
]),
onLogin(e) {
this.login(this.username);
}
},
computed: {
...mapGetters({
initialUsername: 'username'
})
},
created() {
console.log(this.username)
}
}
What i get in the console :
ƒ username(state, getters) {
return 'tmp';
}
Any idea why ?
Thanks ;)
Alright, i figured out why it didn't work lol, i just didn't instantiate a vuex store, but just a normal object containing my state and getters... :
export default {
state: {
storage
},
getters: {
username: (state, getters) => {
return state.storage.username;
}
},
mutations: {
[LOGIN]: (state, username) => {
state.storage.username = username;
},
[LOGOUT]: state => {
state.storage.logout();
}
}
}
Sorry buddies, that was the first time I used vuex '-'
My module has:
export default {
namespaced: true,
state: {
conversations: false
},
getters: {
getConversation(state, ConversationId) {
console.log('here i am!')
let conversation = _.find(state.conversations, { id: ConversationId })
console.log('conversation', conversation)
return conversation
},
In my component, I'm trying:
export default {
name: "ConversationDetail",
components: { HeaderSection },
computed: {
...mapGetters("conversation", ["getConversation"]),
ConversationId() {
return this.$route.params.ConversationId;
},
conversation() {
return this.getConversation(this.ConversationId);
}
},
methods: {
...mapActions("conversation", ["loadConversation"])
},
mounted() {
this.loadConversation(this.ConversationId);
But am getting an error:
Error in render: "TypeError: this.getConversation is not a function"
What am I doing wrong?
You are referencing the getter correctly, however, if you wish to pass parameters to your getter it needs to return a function that takes your parameter, for example with a curried lambda:
getter: (state) => (ConversationId) => {...}
I'm learning Vue and I've run into a problem where my data returns undefined from a computed method. It seems that the data is not computed by the time the component is mounted, probably due to the get request - wrapping my this.render() in a setTimeout returns the data correctly. Setting a timeout is clearly not sensible so how should I be doing this for best practice?
Home.vue
export default {
created() {
this.$store.dispatch('retrievePost')
},
computed: {
posts() {
return this.$store.getters.getPosts
}
},
methods: {
render() {
console.log(this.comments)
}
},
mounted() {
setTimeout(() => {
this.render()
}, 2000);
},
}
store.js
export const store = new Vuex.Store({
state: {
posts: []
},
getters: {
getPosts (state) {
return state.posts
}
},
mutations: {
retrievePosts (state, comments) {
state.posts = posts
}
},
actions: {
retrievePosts (context) {
axios.defaults.headers.common['Authorization'] = 'Bearer ' + context.state.token
axios.get('/posts')
.then(response => {
context.commit('retrievePosts', response.data)
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error)
})
}
}
})
It is because axios request is still processing when Vue invokes mounted hook(these actions are independent of each other), so state.posts are undefined as expected.
If you want to do something when posts loaded use watch or better computed if it's possible:
export default {
created() {
this.$store.dispatch('retrievePost')
},
computed: {
posts() {
return this.$store.getters.getPosts
}
},
methods: {
render() {
console.log(this.comments)
}
},
watch: {
posts() { // or comments I dont see comments definition in vue object
this.render();
}
}
}
P.S. And don't use render word as methods name or something because Vue instance has render function and it can be a bit confusing.
I am using Vue.js 2.0 and Vuex 2.0 for a small app. I am initializing the store in the 'created' life-cycle hook on the root Vue instance by calling an action that retrieves the initial state from an API....like so in my Root Component:
const app = new Vue({
el: "#app",
router,
store,
data: {
vacation: {},
},
components: {
'vacation-status': VacationStatus,
},
created() {
//initialize store data structure by submitting action.
this.$store.dispatch('getVacation');
},
computed: {},
methods: {}
});
This is working just fine. Here is the action on my store that I'm calling here:
getVacation({ commit }) {
api.getVacation().then(vacation => commit(UPDATE_VACATION, vacation))
}
The mutation that this is committing with 'UPDATE_VACATION' is here:
[UPDATE_VACATION] (state, payload) {
state.vacation = payload.vacation;
},
My Problem: When I load the app, all my components that are 'getting' values from the store throw errors I'm trying to access 'undefined' values on the store. In other words, state hasn't been initialized yet.
For example, I have a component that has getters in Child Components like this:
computed: {
arrival() {
return this.$store.getters.arrival
},
departure() {
return this.$store.getters.departure
},
countdown: function() {
return this.$store.getters.countdown
}
}
All these getters cause errors because 'vacation' is undefined on the state object. It seems like an asynchronous problem to me, but could be wrong. Am I initializing my store state in the wrong spot?
Vue.use(Vuex);
export default new Vuex.Store({
state: {},
getters: {
getVacation: state => {
return state.vacation
},
guests: state => {
return state.vacation.guests
},
verifiedGuests: state => {
return state.vacation.guests.filter(guest => guest.verified)
},
emergencyContacts: state => {
return state.emergency_contacts
},
arrival: state => {
return state.vacation.check_in
},
departure: state => {
return state.vacation.check_out
},
countdown: state => {
let check_in = new Date(state.vacation.check_in);
let now = new Date();
if ((now - check_in) > 0) {
return 'This vacation started on ' + check_in;
}
let difference = check_in - now;
let day = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
return Math.ceil(difference / day) + " days until your vacation";
}
},
mutations: {
[UPDATE_VACATION](state, payload) {
state.vacation = payload.vacation;
},
[ADD_GUEST](state, payload) {
state.vacation.guests.push(payload.guest);
},
[REMOVE_GUEST](state, payload) {
state.vacation.guests.filter(guest => {
debugger;
return guest.id != payload.guest.id
})
},
[UPDATE_GUEST](state, payload) {
state.vacation.guests.map(guest => {
// Refactor Object.assign to deep cloning of object
return guest.id === payload.guest.id ? Object.assign({}, guest, payload.guest) : guest;
})
},
[ADD_EMERGENCY](state, payload) {
state.vacation.emergency_contacts.push(payload.emergency_contact)
},
[REMOVE_EMERGENCY](state, payload) {
state.vacation.emergency_contacts.filter(contact => contact.id !== payload.emergency_contact.id)
},
[UPDATE_EMERGENCY](state, payload) {
state.vacation.emergency_contacts.map(contact => {
// Refactor not needed because emergency_contact is a shallow object.
return contact.id === payload.emergency_contact.id ? Object.assign({}, contact, payload.emergency_contact) : contact;
});
}
},
actions: {
getVacation({
commit
}) {
api.getVacation().then(vacation => commit(UPDATE_VACATION, vacation))
},
addGuest({
commit
}, guest) {
commit(ADD_GUEST, guest);
},
removeGuest({
commit
}, guest) {
commit(REMOVE_GUEST, guest);
},
updateGuest({
commit
}, guest) {
commit(UPDATE_GUEST, guest);
},
addEmergency({
commit
}, guest) {
commit(ADD_EMERGENCY, contact)
},
removeEmergency({
commit
}, contact) {
commit(REMOVE_EMERGENCY, contact)
},
updateEmergency({
commit
}, contact) {
commit(UPDATE_EMERGENCY, contact)
},
updateServer(store, payload) {
return api.saveVacation(payload)
}
}
});
Just so the solution is clear to others:
I wasn't setting my initial state quite properly in the store itself. I was pulling in the data, and updating the store correctly, but the store needed to be initialized like this:
export default new Vuex.Store({
state: {
vacation: {} //I added this, and then justed updated this object on create of the root Vue Instance
},
});
I think you're doing everything right. Maybe you're just not creating the getters correctly (can't see any definition in your code). Or your setting the initial state not correctly (also not visible in your snippet).
I would use mapState to have the state properties available in components.
In the demo simply add users to the array in mapState method parameter and the users data will be available at the component. (I've just added the getter users to show how this is working. That's not needed if you're using mapState.)
Please have a look at the demo below or this fiddle.
const api =
'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users'
const UPDATE_USERS = 'UPDATE_USERS'
const SET_LOADING = 'SET_LOADING'
const store = new Vuex.Store({
state: {
users: {},
loading: false
},
mutations: {
[UPDATE_USERS](state, users) {
console.log('mutate users', users)
state.users = users;
console.log(state)
}, [SET_LOADING](state, loading) {
state.loading = loading;
}
},
getters: {
users(state) {
return state.users
}
},
actions: {
getUsers({commit}) {
commit(SET_LOADING, true);
return fetchJsonp(api)
.then((users) => users.json())
.then((usersParsed) => {
commit(UPDATE_USERS, usersParsed)
commit(SET_LOADING, false)
})
}
}
})
const mapState = Vuex.mapState;
const Users = {
template: '<div><ul><li v-for="user in users">{{user.name}}</li></ul></div>',
computed: mapState(['users'])
}
new Vue({
el: '#app',
store: store,
computed: {
...mapState(['loading']),
//...mapState(['users']),
/*users () { // same as mapState
return this.$store.state.users;
}*/
users() { // also possible with mapGetters(['users'])
return this.$store.getters.users
}
},
created() {
this.$store.dispatch('getUsers')
},
components: {
Users
}
})

You can create a function that returns the initial state, and use it into your Vuex instance, like this:
function initialStateFromLocalStorage() {
...
const empty = {
status: '',
token: '',
user: null
}
return empty;
}
export default new Vuex.Store({
state: initialStateFromLocalStorage,
...
As soon as you return an object for the state, you can do whatever you want inside that function, right?
