I'm trying import js-cookies in my main.js
Main.js
import * as Cookies from "js-cookie";
Vue.use(Cookies)
Using in component
this.$Cookies.set('name', data.user, { secure: true });
Error
TypeError: Cannot read property 'set' of undefined
what is the problem?
I have tried a thousand ways and it still does not work.
Vue.use(name) is used to install a vue plugin. The package will need an install method that receives a vue instance.
#1
You can use the cookies packages without a plugin importing the module in the component
<script>
import Cookies from 'js-cookie';
export default {
methods: {
addCookie() {
console.log('adding the cookie');
Cookies.set('chocolate', 'chookies');
console.log(Cookies.get());
}
}
}
</script>
#2 you can add a VUE plugin and set a Cookies prototype function to the Cookies module.
(Prototype vue functions will be available for components, it's standard to prefix them with $).
src/CookiesPlugin.js
import Cookies from 'js-cookie';
const CookiesPlugin = {
install(Vue, options) {
Vue.prototype.$Cookies = Cookies;
}
};
export default CookiesPlugin;
src/main.js
import CookiesPlugin from './CookiesPlugin';
Vue.use(CookiesPlugin);
In the component
this.$Cookies.set('chocolate', 'chookies');
console.log(this.$Cookies.get());
You are using a NOT Vue (Vanilla JS library) library and you are trying to use it as a Vue resource.
Try using this one instead

I would like to make a js module file that imports vue component and register there.
and then inherit this component and use it for the app's main component.
I've found similar cases but the thing is, I don't use vue cli.
custom.js
import customMain from '/custom/components/main/main.js';
window.Vue.defineComponent('custom-main', customMain);
and in the app.js
import Main from '/global/components/main/main.js';
var App = createApp({
...
components: {
'global-main': Main,
},
template: `<component :is='mainComponent'></component>`,
computed: {
mainComponent() {
if(this.settings.customComponent){
return 'custom-main';
}else{
return 'global-main';
}
}
is this doable? what should I do to make this work?
is there other alternative way to load components dynamically?
The best approach for this case is defining a plugin named registerComponents in the plugins folder : plugins/registerComponents.js
import customMain from '/custom/components/main/main.js';
export default {
install: (app, options) => {
app.component('custom-main', customMain);
}
}
in App.js use the plugin:
import registerComponents from './plugins/registerComponents'
var App = createApp({....})
App.use(registerComponents)
I'm using Vue.js in my PHP project as a CDN (it's not a vue Cli project).
I want to use vue-resource to connect one of my vue methods to my ApiController but i don't know how to use this package in a js file.
By the way when i import it like this: import vueResource from 'vue-resource'
i get this error : Cannot use import statement outside a module
import vueResource from 'vue-resource'
use(vueResource);
new Vue({
el:'#panel-main-wrapper',
data : {
collapse:false
},
methods:{
loadCities(field){
this.$http.post('/api/getCities',{
'name' : this.$refs[field].value
}).then(function (data){
alert(data)
})
}
}
})
i'm trying to export a Vue.js 2 project as a library containing multiple components.
Using this as example I managed to export a single component.
In my "library" project, I've exported in the main.js:
import TestButton from "#/components/TestButton";
import store from "#/store";
export default {
install(Vue, options) {
if (!options || !options.store) {
throw new Error("Please initialise plugin with a Vuex store.");
}
options.store.registerModule("testLibrary", store);
Vue.component("test-button", TestButton);
}
};
I build it via vue-cli-service build --target lib --name testlib src/main.js
Published on npm via npm publish --access-public
And then imported in another Vue 2 project.
Here in the main.js I've:
[...]
new Vue({
store,
render: (h) => h(App),
}).$mount("#app");
import TestButton from "my-test-library";
Vue.use(TestButton, { store });
And then I can successfully use <test-button></test-button> in whatever component I need, while the Vuex Store has a working "testLibrary" module.
Now the question is how I can export multiple components in the first app and import in the second one.
I've found many example about, such as this one, however I can't get it working.
For example, in the library app I'm trying
import TestButton from "#/components/TestButton";
import AnotherComponent "#/components/AnotherComponent";
import store from "#/store";
export default {
install(Vue, options) {
if (!options || !options.store) {
throw new Error("Please initialise plugin with a Vuex store.");
}
options.store.registerModule("testLibrary", store);
Vue.component("test-button", TestButton);
Vue.component("another-component", AnotherComponent);
}
};
While in the second app I'm trying something like
[...]
import { TestButton, AnotherComponent } from "my-test-library";
But whatever syntax I try it seems like the second app goes in a loop while building and don't work.
Any idea how is this done?
According to this blog post the correct way of including frequently used libraries (e.g. axios) in Vue.js 2 is to set them as property of Vue prototype object like this:
import axios from 'axios';
Object.defineProperty(Vue.prototype, '$axios', { value: axios });
Unfortunately, this approach is not working in Vue.js 3 anymore. So what is the correct way of importing library to be accesible in whole project? I would prefer not to set them as global variable (i.e. to the window object.)
To use provide/inject as an alternative
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'
import axios from 'axios';
const app = createApp(App)
app.provide('axios', axios ) // <-- define here
app.mount('#app')
Then in any component you wanna use axios you would do this
app.component('todo-list-statistics', {
inject: ['axios'],
created() {
this.axios // --> Injected property
}
}
I think the best way to us a library in a vue 3 project is to use the depency injection
https://v3.vuejs.org/guide/component-provide-inject.html
however I simply recommend that you import the library where you really need it, to have a more accurate intellisense, and a better three-shaking
I'm using Vue with it's Electron plugin and I want to use fs to read directories, but it gives me this error. What could be the problem?
TypeError: Object(...) is not a function
import Vue from 'vue';
import Component from 'vue-class-component';
import { readdir } from 'fs';
#Component
export default class Directory {
mounted() {
readdir('C:/', (err, files) => {
if (err) console.log(err);
console.log(files)
})
}
}
I only worked with Angular+Electron combo, but with that I used electron's main process to do file manipulation stuff.
Further read: https://www.electronjs.org/docs/api/ipc-main
In the main process, you can access "fs" easily like you would in node.
I don't know if this is the case with Vue, but maybe this helps.
