Misc

name

• Type: string

• Details:

  Allow the component to recursively invoke itself in its template. Note that when a component is registered globally with app.component, the global ID is automatically set as its name.

  Another benefit of specifying a name option is debugging. Named components result in more helpful warning messages. Also, when inspecting an app in the vue-devtools (opens new window), unnamed components will show up as <AnonymousComponent>, which isn't very informative. By providing the name option, you will get a much more informative component tree.

inheritAttrs

• Type: boolean

• Default: true

• Details:

  By default, parent scope attribute bindings that are not recognized as props will "fallthrough". This means that when we have a single-root component, these bindings will be applied to the root element of the child component as normal HTML attributes. When authoring a component that wraps a target element or another component, this may not always be the desired behavior. By setting inheritAttrs to false, this default behavior can be disabled. The attributes are available via the $attrs instance property and can be explicitly bound to a non-root element using v-bind.

• Usage:

  app.component('base-input', {
    inheritAttrs: false,
    props: ['label', 'value'],
    emits: ['input'],
    template: `
      <label>
        {{ label }}
        <input
          v-bind="$attrs"
          v-bind:value="value"
          v-on:input="$emit('input', $event.target.value)"
        >
      </label>
    `
  })

compilerOptions 3.1+

• Type: Object

• Details:

  This is the component-level equivalent of the app-level compilerOptions config.

• Usage:

  const Foo = {
    // ...
    compilerOptions: {
      delimiters: ['${', '}'],
      comments: true
    }
  }

  Important

  Similar to the app-level compilerOptions config, this option is only respected when using the full build with in-browser template compilation.

delimiters deprecated

Deprecated in 3.1.0. Use compilerOptions.delimiters instead.
