Passing ID through router-link in Vue.js - vuejs2

Question

I have 2 router links that link to the same page (definition page) but has different ids, in my definition page I have an if else loop that checks the id and then posts the apropriate definition for that id.my problem is that my loop can't properly read my id and goes straight to my else statment, this is the closest that I've gotten it to work.
My 2 router-links in page 1
<router-link :to="{ path: '/Pulse/Definition',id:'Alignment'}" v-bind:tooltip="Alignment" append><a >Read more ></a></router-link>
<router-link :to="{ path: '/Pulse/Definition'}" id="Trust" append><a >Read more ></a></router-link>
My definition page
<template>
<div class="PulseDefinition page row">
<h2 v-if=" id=='Alignment'">hello world {{id}}</h2>
<h2 v-else-if=" id=='Trust'">hello world {{id}}</h2>
<h2 v-else>Sorry try again</h2>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
}
</script>
<style scoped>
.PulseDefinition{
margin-top:2.5rem;
margin-left:3rem;
background-color: aquamarine;
width:50rem;
height:50rem;
}
</style>
Router
import Vue from 'vue';
import Router from 'vue-router';
import Community from '../components/PulseCommunity';
import Home from '../components/Home';
import Definition from '../components/Definition.vue';
Vue.use(Router)
export default new Router({
routes:[
{
path:'Tuba',
name:'Tuba',
component: Default
},
{
path:'/Pulse',
name:'Pulse',
component:PulseNav,
children:[{
path:'/Pulse/Overview',
name:'Overview',
component:Overview
},
{
path:'/Pulse/Personal',
name:'Personal',
component:Personal
},
{
path:'/Pulse/Community',
name:'Community',
component:Community
},
{
path:'/Pulse/Definition/:id',
name:'Pulse Definition',
component:Definition
}
]
},
{
path:'/Coaching',
name:'Coaching',
component:Coaching
},
{
path:'/Comunication',
name:'Comunication',
component:Comunication
},
{
path:'/Home',
name:'Home',
component:Home
},
]
})

Answer 1

Normally when your using the router inside of a Vue application you'll want to use route parameters, check out the dynamic routing link here.
Using the same example:
const router = new VueRouter({
routes: [
// dynamic segments start with a colon
{ path: '/user/:id', component: User }
]
})
Here in our router whenever we navigate to a url where /user/ is present providing we then add something after we can match the /:id section of it. Then inside of our component we are able to query the parameters for the ID that was sent in our url:
console.log(this.$route.query.id)
Using this we could then save that value into our component or we could build reactivity around this.$route.query.
In your case you'd only need to append to the string that you pass into that router link by simply using your data / methods or if you require further rules you could use a computed method. This might become or something simmilar:
<router-link :to="{ path: '/Pulse/Definition'+ this.alignmentType}" v-bind:tooltip="Alignment" append><a >Read more ></a></router-link>

i found a solution thx to the help of li x and a senior coworker of mine,here is the awnser.
my working router-link in page 1
<router-link :to="{ path: '/Pulse/Definition/'+'Alignment'}" v-bind:tooltip="Alignment" append><a >Read more ></a></router-link>
im adding the id(Alignment) to my url with[:to="{ path: '/Pulse/Definition/'+'Alignment'}"]
my definition page
<template>
<div class="PulseDefinition page row">
<h2 v-if=" this.$route.params.id=='Alignment'">hello world {{this.$route.params.id}}</h2>
<h2 v-else-if=" this.$route.params.id=='Trust'">hello world {{this.$route.params.id}}</h2>
<h2 v-else-if=" this.$route.params.id=='undefined'">Sorry try again {{this.$route.params.id}}</h2>
<h2 v-else>XXXSorry try againXXX{{this.$route.params.id}}</h2>
<!-- {{console.log("hi")}} -->
</div>
</template>
<script>
// console.log(this.$route.query.id);
export default {
}
</script>
im using [this.$route.params.id] to retrieve my id, and my router page stayed the same.
thank you all for the great help ;)
