Vue

Vue (pronounced /vjuː/, like view) is a JavaScript framework for building user interfaces. It builds on top of standard HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and provides a declarative, component-based programming model that helps you efficiently develop user interfaces of any complexity.

Fetching data in a lifecycle hook

In a client-side Vue component, data fetching often happens within a lifecycle hook. In the example below, we fetch data from Drupal within the onMounted hook, and update the value of the articles ref with the response. The data will then be available for rendering in the template.

Umami Articles

Loading...

<script setup>
import { ref, onMounted } from "vue";
import { JsonApiClient } from "@drupal-api-client/json-api-client";

const articles = ref({});

onMounted(async () => {
  const client = new JsonApiClient("https://drupal-api-demo.party");
  articles.value = await client.getCollection("node--article");
});
</script>

<template>
  <h1>Umami Articles</h1>
  <ul v-if="articles.data">
    <li v-for="article in articles.data">
      {{ article.attributes.title }}
    </li>
  </ul>
  <div v-else>Loading...</div>
</template>
