Vue and Blaze integration

This Meteor package provides Vue components and Blaze templates for easier integration of Vue and Blaze in the same application, with full reactivity across boundaries.

Adding this package to your Meteor application provides:

• blaze-template Vue component, to render Blaze templates from Vue
• VueComponent Blaze template, to render Vue components from Blaze
• RouterLink Blaze template, to render links for Vue Router in Blaze templates

You have to use Tracker-enabled fork of Vue and fork of Tracker. See these instructions for more information.

Installation

meteor add vuejs:blaze-integration

blaze-template

From Vue, you can render Blaze templates with <blaze-template> Vue component:

<blaze-template template="myBlazeTemplate" :data="{message}"></blaze-template>

For example, Blaze template could be:

<template name="myBlazeTemplate">
  <p>Message from Vue: {{message}}</p>
</template>

This example also binds the data context to the template. So you can pass data from Vue to Blaze template.

You can bind the property to make template dynamic, bound to templateData reactive Vue property:

<blaze-template :template="templateData"></blaze-template>

You can use a different tag for the wrapper tag (default is div):

<blaze-template template="myBlazeTemplate" tag="span"></blaze-template>

Any extra arguments are passed on to wrapper tag:

<blaze-template template="myBlazeTemplate" class="foobar"></blaze-template>

If you put any content between start and end tag, it is passed to the Blaze template as Template.contentBlock:

<blaze-template template="myBlazeTemplateBlockHelper">
  <p>This is slot content from Vue: {{slotValue}}</p>
</blaze-template>

Example Blaze template:

<template name="myBlazeTemplateBlockHelper">
  <p>Blaze content.</p>
  {{> Template.contentBlock}}
</template>

It is reactive as well. slotValue comes from the Vue component, but it is rendered inside Blaze block helper template.

VueComponent

From Blaze, you can render Vue components with VueComponent Blaze template:

{{> VueComponent component="my-vue-component" props=props}}

This example also binds props to the component. So you can pass data from Blaze to Vue component. Reactively, by having props reactively change.

If you have to provide any extra arguments to the component's constructor, you can do that using args. For example, args value could be {store}, to pass Vuex store to the component.

RouterLink

If you use Vue Router in your application, you might want to change pages from Blaze. Simply using <a href="..."> will not work well because it will trigger the whole application to reload on location change. Instead, you can use RouterLink Blaze template:

{{#RouterLink to="/"}}Go to Home{{/RouterLink}}

This will render a link which will on click trigger page change through router.

The template aims to be equivalent to <router-link> Vue component. For example, you can pass as to an object which will be resolved to the target location.

It also supports adding attributes, you can add any attribue that is not known as an option for <router-link> Vue component.

{{#RouterLink to="/" class="my-class" data-my-info="{info: true}"}}
