vue-model-autoset

A Vue.js plugin to workaround Vue limitation in observing dynamically added properties with v-model directive.

Imagine a huge form with 100+ fields.

<input v-model="filters.name" />
<my-slider v-model="filters.price_min" />
<my-slider v-model="filters.price_max" />
.......
100+
.......
<my-checkbox v-model="filters.only_good_offers" />

You should init filters in data() fn for your parent component, if you want them be reactive Vue.js Change-Detection-Caveats

data() {
  return {
    filters: {
      name: null,
      price_min: null,
      price_max: null,
      ...
      ...
      only_good_offers: null
    }
  }
}

And now you should keep them in sync, or you wil get weird bugs. It is frustrating. vue-model-autoset does it for you. Define your filters: {} and forget. Just write your template and it will just work.

Killed webpack etc, so this package now can be used only in webpack projects. No simple include script usage.
