Vuex Apollo (Bringing the best of both worlds together)

First stable release is out

npm npm

Build Status

Install

npm install vuex-apollo --save

Import

  • vuexApollo can be imported as a normal vue plugin
  • You can pass the plugin 2 options
    • The uri of the graphql server
    • An Array of objects with the module name (name) and the raw module (module)
import Vue from 'vue'
import vuexApollo from 'vuex-apollo'
import user from './modules/user'
import App from './App.vue'
 
Vue.use(vuexApollo, {
    uri: 'https://fakerql.com/graphql',
    modules: [{
      name: 'user',
      store: user
    }]
})
 
new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  render: h => h(App)
})
 

Usage

  • Along with the export for vuexApollo you can also get some of the Vuex map functions from this package
  • So you can do the following within your application when bootstrapped with vuexApollo
<template>
    <div id="app">
        <h1>Testing Vuex Apollo</h1>
        <div class="user">
            <img
                class="user-avatar" 
                :src="avatar" />
            <h3>Name: {{ name }}</h3>
            <h3>Email: {{ email }}</h3>
        </div>
        <p>
            <button @click="newUser">Get New User</button>
        </p>
    </div>
</template>
 
<script>
    import { mapActions, mapGetters, mapState } from 'vuex-apollo'
 
    export default {
        name: 'app',
        computed: {
            ...mapState('user', {
                avatar: 'avatar',
                email: 'email'
            }),
            ...mapGetters({
                name: 'user/fullName'
            })
        },
        methods: {
            ...mapActions({
                newUser: 'user/GET_USER_INFO'
            })
        }
    }
</script> 

Building a Module

  • Modules are built in a standard fashion to how you would nomally scaffold a module
  • The Action is now passed two new properties in the context
    • apollo (This is an instance of Apollo Client)
    • gql (This )
  • You can also init a module from actions by declaring an INIT action

You Can See An Example Module Here

This is an Example of actions using the INIT self called action and destructing the apollo and gql properties

import * as types from './types'
 
export const actions = {
    INIT ({ commit }) {
        console.log(`I'm called on init`)
    },
    [types.GET_USER_INFO] ({ commit, apollo, gql }) {
        apollo.query({
            query: gql`
            query UserInfo {
                User(id:21) {
                    id
                    firstName
                    lastName
                    email
                    avatar 
                }
            }
            `
        }).then(response => {
            commit(types.GET_USER_INFO, response.data.User)
        })
    }
}
