First, you need a parent so two component can communicate. when my-button component is clicked triggers an event add-value that calls doSomething() function, then updates the value & show it to my-viewer component.
HTML
<!--PARENT-->
<div id="app">
<!--CHILD COMPONENTS-->
<my-button :title="'Add Value'" v-on:add-value="doSomething"></my-button>
<my-viewer :counter="counter"></my-viewer>
</div>
VUE.JS
//component A
Vue.component('my-button',{
props:['title'],
template:`<button v-on:click="$emit('add-value')">{{title}}</button>`
});
//Component B
Vue.component('my-viewer',{
props:['counter'],
template:`<button>{{counter}}</button>`
});
//Parent
new Vue({
el: '#app',
data:{
counter:0,
},
methods:{
doSomething:function(){
this.counter++;
}
}
})
This is base on Vue Components Guide
Passing Data to Child Components with Props (Parent to Child)
VUE.JS
//component (child)
//Vue component must come first, else it won't work
Vue.component('blog-post', {
/*Props are custom attributes you can register on a component. When a
value is passed to a prop attribute, it becomes a property on that
component instance*/
props: ['title'],
template: '<h3>{{ title }}</h3>'
});
//parent
new Vue({
el: '#blog-post-demo',
data: {
posts: [
{ id: 1, title: 'My journey with Vue' },
{ id: 2, title: 'Blogging with Vue' },
{ id: 3, title: 'Why Vue is so fun' }
]
}
});
HTML:
v-for will loop on posts and pass data to blog-post component
<div id="blog-post-demo">
<blog-post v-for="post in posts"
v-bind:key="post.id"
v-bind:title="post.title"></blog-post>
</div>
Listening to Child Components Events (Child to Parent)
HTML
You must first register the event by v-on:enlarge-text="onEnlargeText" to use $emit and make sure that it's always set to lower case or it won't work properly. example enlargeText and Enlargetext will always be converted to enlargetext, thus use enlarge-text instead, because its easy to read & valid, for a brief explanation about $emit you can read it here
<div id="blog-posts-events-demo">
<div :style="{ fontSize: postFontSize + 'em' }">
<blog-post
v-for="post in posts"
v-bind:key="post.id"
v-bind:post="post"
v-on:enlarge-text="onEnlargeText"></blog-post>
</div>
</div>
VUE.JS
When user clicks the button the v-on:click="$emit('enlarge-text')" will trigger then calling the function onEnlargeText() in the parent
//component (child)
Vue.component('blog-post', {
props: ['post'],
template: `
<div class="blog-post">
<h3>{{ post.title }}</h3>
<button v-on:click="$emit('enlarge-text')">
Enlarge text
</button>
<div v-html="post.content"></div>
</div>`
})
//parent
new Vue({
el: '#blog-posts-events-demo',
data: {
posts: [
{ id: 1, title: 'My journey with Vue' },
{ id: 2, title: 'Blogging with Vue' },
{ id: 3, title: 'Why Vue is so fun' }
],
postFontSize: 1
},
methods:{
onEnlargeText:function(){
this.postFontSize++;
}
}
})
