I am currently working with Vue.js, specifically dealing with Vue components. Within my codebase, I often find myself needing to compare values to an enum. While this works seamlessly in the script section of a .vue file, it poses a challenge in the HTML portion. For example:
<template>
<v-app>
{{MyEnum.EnumMemberOne}}
</v-app>
</template>
This would trigger an error:
[Vue warn]: Property or method "MyEnum" is not defined on the instance but referenced during render...
To resolve this issue, I have to include the following in my script to access the enum:
import {MyEnum} from "@/types";
@Component({
components: {}
})
export default class App extends Vue {
myEnum = MyEnum;
}
Afterwards, I can simply reference the enum using myEnum
in the HTML section. However, managing multiple enums and creating variables for each enum within every component becomes tedious.
Therefore, my goal is to establish a collection of enums that are readily available across all components, regardless of the number or specific usage of enums in each component.
In my types.ts file (where interfaces and enums are defined), I aim to achieve the following structure:
export enum MyEnum1 {
EnumMemberOne,
EnumMemberTwo,
}
export enum MyEnum2 {
EnumMemberOne,
EnumMemberTwo,
}
export interface EnumCollection {
MyEnum1: MyEnum1;
MyEnum2: MyEnum2;
}
This setup allows me to streamline the usage of enums in each component by simply including: enumCollection = EnumCollection;
Consequently, I can utilize the enums in the HTML section like this:
<template>
<v-app>
{{enumCollection.MyEnum1.EnumMemberOne}}
</v-app>
</template>
Is this approach feasible? If not, what is a more effective way to consolidate all enums into one centralized location?
