I am creating an alert component for a CRUD app using Vue.js. I want a message to be passed to another component once data has been saved. Currently I am trying to pass this data in $router.push like this this.$router.push({path: '/', query: {alert: 'Customer Added'}}) Then access this data in another component. However this is not working as expected, instead the data is passed into the url.
This is the component which saves the data, Add.vue
<template>
<div class="add container">
<Alert v-if="alert" v-bind:message="alert" />
<h1 class="page-header">Add Customer</h1>
<form v-on:submit="addCustomer">
<div class="well">
<h4>Customer Info</h4>
<div class="form-group">
<label>First Name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="First Name"
v-model="customer.first_name">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Last Name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Last Name"
v-model="customer.last_name">
</div>
</div>
<div class="well">
<h4>Customer Contact</h4>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Email</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Email" v-model="customer.email">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Phone</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Phone" v-model="customer.phone">
</div>
</div>
<div class="well">
<h4>Customer Location</h4>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Address</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Address" v-model="customer.address">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>City</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="City" v-model="customer.city">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>State</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="State" v-model="customer.state">
</div>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
</form>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import Alert from './Alert'
export default {
name: 'add',
data () {
return {
customer: {},
alert:''
}
},
methods: {
addCustomer(e){
if(!this.customer.first_name || !this.customer.last_name ||
!this.customer.email){
this.alert = 'Please fill in all required fields';
} else {
let newCustomer = {
first_name: this.customer.first_name,
last_name: this.customer.last_name,
phone: this.customer.phone,
email: this.customer.email,
address: this.customer.address,
city: this.customer.city,
state: this.customer.state
}
this.$http.post('http://slimapp.dev/api/customer/add',
newCustomer)
.then(function(response){
this.$router.push({path: '/', query: {alert: 'Customer
Added'}})
});
e.preventDefault();
}
e.preventDefault();
}
},
components: {
Alert
}
}
</script>
<!-- Add "scoped" attribute to limit CSS to this component only
-->
<style scoped>
</style>
This the alert component, Alert.vue
<template>
<div class="alert alert-warning alert-dismissible" role="alert">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span></button>
{{message}}
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: 'alert',
props: ['message'],
data () {
return {
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- Add "scoped" attribute to limit CSS to this component only -->
<style scoped>
</style>
And this is the component where the alert is to be viewed, Customers.vue
<template>
<div class="customers container">
<Alert v-if="alert" v-bind:message="alert" />
<h1 class="page-header">Manage Customers</h1>
<table class="table table-striped">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>First Name</th>
<th>Last Name</th>
<th>Email</th>
<th></th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr v-for="customer in customers">
<td>{{customer.first_name}}</td>
<td>{{customer.last_name}}</td>
<td>{{customer.email}}</td>
<td></td></tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import Alert from './Alert';
export default {
name: 'customers',
data () {
return {
customers: [],
alert: ''
}
},
methods: {
fetchCustomers(){
this.$http.get('http://slimapp.dev/api/customers')
.then(function(response){
this.customers = (response.body);
});
}
},
created: function(){
if (this.$route.params.alert) {
this.alert = $route.params.alert
}
this.fetchCustomers();
},
updated: function(){
this.fetchCustomers();
},
components: {
Alert
}
}
How do I solve this?
