Vue use model helpers

This library provides a helper to convert a component's property to a local Ref you can mutate when you are using composition-api, simplifying the management of the custom v-model and .sync

This library works with Vue 2.x and Vue 3

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

This package is deprecated and no longer maintained. Please use VueUse useVModels and/or ' useVModel' instead https://vueuse.org/core/useVModels/ with the option { passive: true } to obtain the same behavior as this package.

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

For Vue 2.x check 2.x branch

Motivation

When you create a component that gets a property and then needs to mutate it into the component you get this vue warn

[Vue warn]: Avoid mutating a prop directly since the value will be overwritten whenever the parent component

You need to copy the property value to a local value to use in the component,

Also should update your local value when the property value changes

If the property is a v-model or uses .sync you also must take care of emitting an event when your local value changes to keep updated the property value in the parent component.

The motivation of this library is simplifying this task and reducing the amount of repetitive code.

Getting started

Install

Vue 2.x

npm i vue-use-model-helper@2.x --save or yarn add vue-use-model-helper@2.x

Vue 3

npm i vue-use-model-helper@3.x --save or yarn add vue-use-model-helper@3.x

Usage

In your component:

import { useLocalModel } from 'vue-use-model-helpers'

export default defineComponent({
  ...
  props: {
    value: String
  } ,
  setup(props) {
    
    const { localValue } = useLocalModel(['value'])
  
    return {
      localValue  
    }
  }
  ...
})

Now you can use localValue in your component, and the helper takes care of sync the values, emit the update event, etc

The component can work with both value and .sync emitting the correct event to keep the property updated

The local variable name follows the rule local + propName capitalized

Examples

<template>
  <div>
    {{ localCounter }}
    <button @click="increaseCounter"></button>
  </div>
</template>
import { useLocalModel } from 'vue-use-model-helpers'

export default defineComponent({
  ...
  props: {
    value: String,
    counter: Number // This propery has .sync in the parent component  
  }  ,
  setup(props) {
    const { localValue, localCounter } = useLocalModel(['value', 'counter'])
  
    const increaseCounter = () => {
        localCounter.value = localCounter.value + 1
    }
  
    return {
      localValue,
      localCounter,
      increaseCounter
    }
  }
  ...
})
