Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Loader to provide template inheritance in Vue's Single File Components

Readme

vue-inheritance-loader

Webpack loader to be used along with vue-loader for Single File Components that provides template extension.

In Vue its possible to extend the component's controller using the extends option, which merges the data, methods, computed properties, etc. Its also possible to extend a component's template with the use of slots. But in some cases where there's the need for tightly coupled components, where we want them to be a single entity but we want to reuse both template and controller logic, extends and slot aren't enough and can lead to cumbersome code.

Use this loader with caution, explore Vuer ways to implement what you need before relying on this

Installation

Install it onto your project with npm install

npm install --save-dev vue-inheritance-loader

You have to add it to your webpack configuration and it has to execute before vue-loader, for example with this config in your vue.config.js:

module.exports = {
  configureWebpack: {
    module: {
      rules: [
        {
          test: /\.vue$/,
          loader: ['vue-inheritance-loader']
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Usage example

In the following example there's two components, BaseWidget and MapWidget, where MapWidget extends BaseWidget.

To make MapWidget's controller extend from BaseWidget's, you have to add extends: BaseWidget to the component definition, as you would do in normal Vue.

To make MapWidget's template extend from BaseWidget's, the following is needed:

  • You have to add extendable to BaseWidget's template tag
  • You have to add extends="[path_to_BaseWidget]" to MapWidget's template tag
  • BaseWidget's template may contain <extension-point> tags
  • Each <extension-point> may have a name attribute
  • There can be at most one default extension point (<extension-point> without name) in the base component
  • MapWidget's template must be comprised by a single <extensions> tag, where its children are <extension> tags
  • Each <extension> tag may have a point attribute that references which <extension-point> it overwrites
  • There can be at most one default extension (<extension> without point) in the child component
// BaseWidget.vue
<template extendable>
    <div>
        <h2>{{title}}</h2>
        <extension-point>This widget has nothing to show</extension-point>
        <div>
            <extension-point name="footer">Default footer</extension-point>
        </div>
    </div>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    name: 'BaseWidget',
    data: function () {
      return {
        title: 'Empty widget'
      }
    },
  }
</script>
// MapWidget.vue
<template extends="./BaseWidget.vue">
    <extensions>
        <extension>
            <select v-model="country">
                <option v-for="country in countries" :value="country">
                    {{ country }}
                </option>
            </select>
            <br>
            [Here goes the map of {{country}}]
        </extension>
        <extension point="footer">
            Map widget footer
        </extension>
    </extensions>
</template>

<script>
  import BaseWidget from './BaseWidget.vue'

  export default {
    extends: BaseWidget,
    name: 'MapWidget',
    data: function () {
      return {
        country: '',
        countries: [
          'Uruguay',
          'Italy',
          'Argentina',
        ]
      }
    },
    watch: {
      country: function(){
        this.title = 'Map of ' + this.country;
      }
    },
    mounted(){
      this.country = this.countries[0];
    }
  }
</script>

This way you can access everything in BaseWidget from MapWidget as if they were the same component (they actually are in the resulting code).
