4. What is Vue.js

5. Vue Component Example
<template>
<div id="app">
<img src="./assets/logo.png">
<h1>{{ msg }}</h1>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
msg: 'Hello Vue 2.0!'
}
}
}
</script>
<style>
body {
font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
</style>

6. Vue.js 2.0

7. Our JavaScript framework is
faster than React
rendering speed and memory consumption by up to 2-4x in m
ww.infoworld.com/article/3063615/javascript/vuejs-lead-our-javascript-framework-is-faster-than-re

8. Vue 2.0 Features
• Fast!
• Rendering layer is based on Snabbdom (a lightweight virtual-DOM implementation)
https://github.com/paldepind/snabbdom
• Compiler & Runtime are now separated
• Reactive!
• No need for shouldComponentUpdate / immutable
• Template ? JSX?
• You can use both with original template & new render function
• Sever Side Rendering! (Streaming SSR)
• NativeRendering
• Compatibility with v1.0

9. Vue 2.0 API Changes
• Lots of APIs are deprecated https://github.com/vuejs/vue/issues/2873
• Filter! (e.g. <span v-text="message | reverse"></span>)
• only available in text interpolations {{}}
• no build-in filters
• vm.$dispatch -> Vuex event bus
• vm.$appendTo -> Just use native DOM API
• v-for $index & $key -> (value, index) in arr, (value, key) in obj
• etc.

10. Rendering Implementations
• https://speakerdeck.com/kazupon/next-vue-dot-js-2-dot-0

11. Vue Router

12. Popular Frameworks for SPA Implementation
• How to implement a SPA (Single-page Application)
• Backbone, Ember, Riot, Angular + ui-router, Angular2, React +
React-Router (+ Redux), Vue.js + Vue-Router (+ Vuex)
• Important things to introduce
• Does your app really need to be a SPA?
• For example, do you need partial rendering?
• Choose framework depending on your app characteristics

13. What’s Vue-Router
• Creating a SPA with Vue.js + vue-router is dead simple
• Not only client-side routing (hash / history API), but also module based URL mapping
• Nested routes and sub components
• Async load
• etc.
• The following hooks are available
• data, activate, deactivate, canActivate, canDeactivate, canReuse
• NOTE The hooks will be changed to onEnter, onLeave, onChange in Vue-Router v0.8.0
• https://github.com/vuejs/vue-router/issues/321

14. Nested Routes and Sub Components & Hooks
Example URL change: /a/b/c -> /a/d/e
2. Validation phase
Check if all current components can be
activated / deactivated
3. Activation phase
Deactivate current components and activate new
components with data hook
1. Reusability phase
Check reusability

15. Code Example
main.vue
router.map({
'/about': {
component: require('./components/about.vue')
},
'/user/:userId': {
component: require('./components/user/index.vue'),
subRoutes: {
'profile/:something': {
component: require('./components/user/profile.vue')
}
},
'*': {
component: require('./components/not-found.vue')
},
})
app.vue
<template>
<div>
<p v-show="authenticating" style="color:red">Authenticating...</p>
<h1>App Header</h1>
<a v-link="{ path: '/about' }">about</a>
<a v-link="{ path: '/user/1234/profile/what' }">user</a>
<a v-link="{ path: '/mypage' }">mypage</a>
<router-view class="view" transition="test" transition-mode="out-in" keep-
alive></router-view>
</div>
</template>
components/user/index.vue
<template>
<div>
<h2>User yo</h2>
<router-view></router-view>
</div>
</template>
components/user/profile.vue

16. Authentication
router.beforeEach((transition) => {
if (transition.to.path === '/mypage') {
router.app.authenticating = true
// check if the user is authenticated
api.checkAuth().then(() => {
router.app.authenticating = false
// authentication success
transition.next()
}).catch(() => {
router.app.authenticating = false
// authentication failed
transition.abort()
})
} else {
transition.next()
}
})
Example auth page implementation with global before hook

17. Is Vue-Router Enough?
• If your SPA with Vue-Router has complex component state
structures, Vuex could be a solution
• Basically, more communications (e.g. dispatch &
broadcast) between components leads to unreadable
code

18. Vuex

19. Vuex
• Official redux inspired flux framework for Vue.js
• Vuex is more fit for Vue.js with efficient reactive system such as
data reactive rendering & components systems

20. Vuex
• Features
• Store
• basically a container that holds your application reactive states
• only way to change a store's state is by explicitly dispatching mutations
• Mutation
• sync (can not be async)
• split into modules with corresponding slice of the state
• Action
• dispatch mutations
• can be async
• Advantages
• simple unidirectional flow (less side effects)
• easy undo/redo - time travel
• hot reloading
• easy test

21. Vuex Flow Summary with Counter Example

22. Mutation Example
• Mutation (a name and a handler) mutates states with synchronous functions
• Vuex store's state is made reactive by Vue
• When we mutate the state, Vue components observing the state will update
automatically
import Vuex from 'vuex'
const store = new Vuex.Store({
state: {
count: 1
},
mutations: {
INCREMENT (state) {
// mutate state
state.count++
}
}
})
store.dispatch('INCREMENT')
• Must be called by dispatch in Action

23. What’s a Getter
• A getter provides accessing way to store data from components
• Components are not allowed to directly mutate a state
• It allows us to reuse computed methods (e.g. totals, averages) through a getter
- Getter Example
// getters.js
export function filteredMessages (state) {
return state.messages.filter(message => message.threadID === state.currentThreadID)
}
- Component
<script>
export default {
vuex: {
getters: {
filteredMessages
}
}
}
</script>
<template>
<div>
<ul>
<li v-for="msg in filteredMessages">{{mgs.title}}</li>
</ul>
</div>
</template>
NOTE the design may changed at Vuex 2.0
https://github.com/vuejs/vuex/issues/236

24. Vuex Form Handling
v-model directly rewrites store data. This is not the Vuex way (throws an error in strict
mode)
The Vuex way with v-model
- Set a getter value to form value
- Dispatch action by UI event (e.g. onclick)
Template:
<input :value="message" @input=“updateMessage”>
JS:
actions: {
updateMessage: ({ dispatch }, e) => {
dispatch('UPDATE_MESSAGE', e.target.value)
}
}

26. Vue-Router + Vuex

27. Vue-router-sync
• Vue Router x Vuex
• Inject (sync) router states to Vuex states
• Components can access router data (path,
params, query) through vuex getter in components
router
• https://github.com/vuejs/vuex-router-sync

28. SPA with Awesome Vue Family
• If your application is not SPA just use Vue.js
• If your SPA …
• Needs mapping URL for components / partial rendering -> Vue Router
• Needs complex component state structure -> Vuex
• Needs both above -> Vuex + Vue Router + Vue Router Sync
