I'm trying to save and read multiple json objects from my vue-application with the vue-cookie package (Version 1.1.4). The snippet below runs really well and the json object is saved and retrivied as expected.
However, I noticed as soon as the data is retrieved via cookies and i want to change data inside the object on the web page, the "updated" lifecycle method will not trigger. This behaviour is really awkward as I am only adding the cookieToJson() method to the beforMount() method. The Vue debugger also shows that the value is changed. I think the data is not reactive anymore, but how can I fix this.
data () {
return {
json: {
a: 0,
b: 1,
},
}
},
methods: {
jsonToCookie(name) {
const data = "{\"" + name + "\": " + JSON.stringify(this[name])+"}";
this.$cookie.set(name, data, { expires: '1M' }, '/app');
},
cookieToJson(name) {
const data = JSON.parse(this.$cookie.get(name));
if(data==null) return
for(var i = 0; i < Object.keys(data).length; i++) {
var name = Object.keys(data)[i]
this[name] = data[name];
}
},
beforeMount() {
console.log("beforeMount")
this.cookieToJson("json")
},
updated() {
console.log("updated")
this.jsonToCookie("json")
},
}
In case anyone run into a similar problem, I am using the localStorage now.
