In my Vue.js application I want to have some global functions. For example a callApi() function which I can call every time I need access to my data.
What is the best way to include these functions so I can access it in all my components?
I have a file with function like a func.js like below
export const func = {
functionName: (data) => {
return something
}
}
In main.js add 2 string
import {func} from './func.js'
Vue.prototype.$func = func
and you can use from all components if in script tag like below
this.$func.functionName(somedata)
or if template tag like
$func.functionName(somedata)
Your best bet would be a Plugin, which lets you add features to the global vue system.
[from the vuejs Docs]
MyPlugin.install = function (Vue, options) {
// 1. add global method or property
Vue.myGlobalMethod = ...
// 2. add a global asset
Vue.directive('my-directive', {})
// 3. add an instance method
Vue.prototype.$myMethod = ...
}
Then you would just add
Vue.use(MyPlugin)
in your code before calling your function.
Vue.myGlobalMethod(parameters);
or in your case
Vue.callApi(parameters);
Mixins can be registered globally too. https://v2.vuejs.org/v2/guide/mixins.html#Global-Mixin
Very simle way is to declare function in window (if is web aplication)
window.myFunc = () => {
console.log("Hello")
}
...
new Vue({
el: "#app",
mounted() {
myFunc()
}
})
