Vue.js/Vuex: How do I v-bind to a state value?

I'm trying to bind the text in a b-dropdown element to a value in the store. I tried binding to a computed property since the value in the store can change and the b-dropdown's text should change dynamically to reflect this change. I want to store the value in the store rather than as a data object because the value has to persist outside of the component where the b-dropdown exists.



Here's the b-dropdown element:



<b-dropdown v-bind:text="selectedSearchType" variant="outline-secondary">
...
</b-dropdown>


And the computed property



computed: {
selectedSearchType: function() {
return store.getters.getSelectedSearchType
}
},


The getter



getSelectedSearchType: state => {
return state.selectedSearchType
}


The state



state: {
selectedSearchType: "Item",
.....
}


I'm getting the following error:



[Vue warn]: Invalid prop: type check failed for prop "text". Expected String, got Function.


Instead if I do



<b-dropdown v-bind:text="selectedSearchType()" variant="outline-secondary">


I get



[Vue warn]: Error in render: "TypeError: Cannot read property 'selectedSearchType' of undefined"


How do I fix this to make the b-dropdown's text bind to the selectedSearchType ins the store?

  • I'm importing the store with import store from '../store/module'. The store is contained in the module.js file.

Your best bet on binding to the store is to create a computed getter/setter and then use v-model in your input. That would look something like the following, you will have to adjust a little depending on your values.



This also assumes that b-dropdown is going to emit an input when the value changes.



<b-dropdown v-model="selectedSearchType" variant="outline-secondary">

computed: {
selectedSearchType: {
get() {
return //value from store
},
set(val) {
// set the value in the store
}
}
}

  • Hmm, on it check what the value is being passed in the vue tools in chrome. Probably the get function is not returning a value. I am confident in this approach b/c i use it often when mapping to and from the store like this.
