Unable to understand how vue-router query params work - vue.js

Question

I am building an app with the following route settings.
export default new Router({
routes: [
{
path: '/login',
name: 'Login',
component: Login
},
{
path: '/home',
name: 'Dashboard',
component: Dashboard,
beforeEnter(to, from, next) {
if (!store.getters.isLoggedIn) {
next('/login');
} else {
next();
}
}
},
{
path: '/',
redirect: '/home'
}
]
});
I also set query parameters based on some select boxes I have by using $router.push say as follows.
this.$router.replace({
query: {
scope: this.$store.getters.filterScope
}
});
Problems I have
Reloading the page removes the query params from the URL.
Updating one query parameter removes the other one I had. Example - updating scope using the above method removes the dateRange parameter I already had.
I am using Vuex too so is there any way I can manage these query params using the store?

Answer 1

If you store your parameters in vuex and you don't use vuex-persistedstate, when you refresh the page state will be removed.
So, my suggestion for you:
your-awesome-site.com/dashboard?first=hello&second=hi
In your Dashboard component, you can do like this
mounted () {
console.log(this.$route.params)
// Update vuex state filterScope
}
So you will retrieve your parameters from url and save it in vuex.
Also you can solve your second issue using this.$route.params
