In my Nuxt project, I have implemented a custom plugin file that contains an object with settings called /helpers/settings:
export const settings = {
baseURL: 'https://my-site.com',
...
};
This file is then imported and registered in /plugins/settings.ts:
import Vue from 'vue';
import { settings } from '~/helpers/settings';
Vue.prototype.$settings = settings;
Furthermore, the plugin is added to the configuration in nuxt.config.js:
export default {
...
plugins: [
'~/plugins/settings',
Then, within any component, I can easily utilize the plugin like this:
export default Vue.extend({
data() {
return {
url: `${this.$settings.baseURL}/some-path`,
Despite everything functioning as anticipated, I encounter a TypeScript error in the console when referencing the plugin in my component:
Property '$settings' does not exist on type 'CombinedVueInstance<Vue, unknown, unknown, unknown, Readonly<Record<never, any>>>'.
This leads to my inquiry: What is the correct approach to applying a type to my custom plugin in order to avoid this error whenever it is utilized?
