Is there any way to trigger component method from parent in VueJS?
I think a good pattern for this is emitting an event from the parent component and listening to it in the child component, using an Event Bus.
That would be:
in main.js
export const bus = new Vue()in Parent.vue:
import {bus} from 'path/to/main'// Where you wanna call the child's method:bus.$emit('customEventName', optionalParameter)in Child.vue:
import {bus} from 'path/to/main'// Add this to the mounted() method in your component options object:bus.$on('customEventName', this.methodYouWannaCall)
