Vue Instance Using Classes

I'm new to Vue and have a few questions on it. But I think the issue I am running is the one I have no idea how to solve it: I have a few

in my code. I want

Solution 1:

You can't do what you are suggesting, but you could create a new Vue for each element matching your selector.

Each would hold it's own state.

const vues = document.querySelectorAll(".app");
Array.prototype.forEach.call(vues, (el, index) =>newVue({el, data:{message: "hello " + index}}))

Example.

If you wanted a shared state,

const vues = document.querySelectorAll(".app");
const each = Array.prototype.forEach;
const data = {
  message: "hello world"
};
each.call(vues, (el, index) =>newVue({el, data}))

At which point you could do something like data.message = "new value" and all the Vues would change.

Example 2.

This is just me playing around though. It might be advisable for you to just create one Vue and manage all your foos.

Solution 2:

Additionally, if you want to access the html from your js/ts files, you can use vue's ref system.

example:

<template><divref="example">example</div></template>

example.js:

var myExampleDiv = this.$refs.example;

or if your using typescript

example.ts:

const myExampleDiv = this.$refs.example as HTMLElement;
