vue-prop-data-fallback v1.0.1

Vue Prop with Data fallabck

Vue mixin to support an optional prop that falls back to a local data

Installation

npm install vue-prop-data-fallback

Usage

The example below will create a prop named value, a local variable _$value (the fallback) and a computed property $value.

<template>
  <input v-model="$value">
</template>

<script>
import { propWithDataFallback } from 'vue-prop-data-fallback'

// MySearch.vue
export default {
  mixins: [propWithDataFallback('value')],

  methods: {
    doSomething() {
      this.$value // the prop or the local value
      // it can be mutated normally
      // this will either change the local variable or emit an event
      this.$value = 'new value'
    },
  },
}
</script>

Now the search input's value can be optionally controlled by the parent:

<!-- no control over the value -->
<my-search/>
<my-search :value.sync="parentValue"/>
