Mixins are a flexible way to distribute reusable functionalities for Vue components. A mixin object can contain any component options. When a component uses a mixin, all options in the mixin will be “mixed” into the component’s own options.
Consider:
// define a mixin object
var myMixin = {
methods: {
getProducts () {
myApi.get('products?id=' + prodId).then(response => this.product = response.data)
}
}
}
// define a component that uses this mixin
var Component = Vue.extend({
mixins: [myMixin]
})
// alternate way to have a mixin while initialising
new Vue({
mixins: [myMixin],
created: function () {
console.log('other code')
}
})
