In my Vue.js application I want to have some global functions. For example a callApi()
function which I can call every time I need access to my data.
What is the best way to include these functions so I can access it in all my components?
Your best bet would be a Plugin, which lets you add features to the global vue system.
[from the vuejs Docs]
MyPlugin.install = function (Vue, options) {
// 1. add global method or property
Vue.myGlobalMethod = ...
// 2. add a global asset
Vue.directive('my-directive', {})
// 3. add an instance method
Vue.prototype.$myMethod = ...
}
Then you would just add
Vue.use(MyPlugin)
in your code before calling your function.
Vue.myGlobalMethod(parameters);
or in your case
Vue.callApi(parameters);
