In Vue 3, the Composition API provides developers with a more flexible way to manage component logic compared to the Options API. One key concept in the Composition API is computed properties, which allow you to create reactive data that updates automatically when its dependencies change.
In this tutorial, we will explore how to use computed properties in Vue 3 with the Composition API. Let’s get started by creating a new Vue 3 project and setting up a basic component with computed properties.
Step 1: Setting up a Vue 3 project
To create a new Vue 3 project, you can use the Vue CLI by running the following command in your terminal:
vue create my-vue3-project
Follow the prompts to select the default options for creating a new Vue 3 project. Once the project is created, navigate to the project directory and install the Vue Composition API plugin by running the following command:
npm install @vue/composition-api
Step 2: Creating a component with computed properties
In your Vue 3 project, create a new component file named ComputedExample.vue
in the components
directory. In this file, add the following code to define a basic component with computed properties:
<template>
<div>
<h1>{{ message }}</h1>
<p>Character count: {{ characterCount }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import { ref, computed } from '@vue/composition-api';
export default {
setup() {
const message = ref('Hello, Vue 3!');
const characterCount = computed(() => message.value.length);
return {
message,
characterCount
};
}
};
</script>
In this code snippet, we import the ref
and computed
functions from the @vue/composition-api
package. We then define a message
reactive variable using the ref
function and a characterCount
computed property using the computed
function.
The message
variable is initialized with the string ‘Hello, Vue 3!’, while the characterCount
computed property calculates the length of the message
and updates automatically when the message
changes.
Step 3: Using the computed properties in a parent component
To use the ComputedExample
component in a parent component, you can import and include it in the parent component’s template. For example, you can create a new component named App.vue
and add the following code:
<template>
<div>
<computed-example />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import ComputedExample from './components/ComputedExample.vue';
export default {
components: {
ComputedExample
}
};
</script>
Now, when you run your Vue 3 project using npm run serve
, you should see the text "Hello, Vue 3!" and the character count displayed in the browser. Try updating the message
variable in the ComputedExample
component to see the character count automatically update.
In this tutorial, we explored how to use computed properties in Vue 3 with the Composition API. Computed properties allow you to create reactive data that updates automatically based on its dependencies, providing a flexible way to manage component logic in Vue 3. Experiment with computed properties in your Vue 3 project to see how they can improve your development workflow.
Kralho baita aula hein
Boa Pablo!
Ótimo, muito bom.😃
