Question - How to create a plugin?
Answer -
The Plugin is created by exposing an install method which takes Vue constructor as a first argument along with options. The structure of VueJS plugin with possible functionality would be as follows,
MyPlugin.install = function (Vue, options) {
// 1. add global method or property
Vue.myGlobalMethod = function () {
// some logic ...
}
// 2. add a global asset
Vue.directive('my-directive', {
bind (el, binding, vnode, oldVnode) {
// some logic ...
}
// ...
})
// 3. inject some component options
Vue.mixin({
created: function () {
// some logic ...
}
// ...
})
// 4. add an instance method
Vue.prototype.$myMethod = function (methodOptions) {
// some logic ...
}
}
