vue-clicky 🖱️

Handy debugging function for Vue. Right click any vue component, and it will show you neatly formatted info about it in the console.

Live demo

Screenshot

It shows:

• The Vue component object
• Current data, props and computed properties
• Root DOM element
• If using VueRouter, info about current route
• Parent component. Click on the parent and it will display the same info about it.

Installation

npm install vue-clicky

import clicky from 'vue-clicky'

clicky() // call the exported function to initialize clicky

// you can also pass some options to clicky:
clicky({
  shift:true, //default: false - clicky won't trigger unless shift is pressed
  ctrl:true,  //default: false - clicky won't trigger unless ctrl is pressed
  stop:true,  //default: false - stops regular context menu from appearing when clicky is triggered (should only be used together with shift:true or ctrl:true)
  left:true  //default: false - trigger on left click instead of right click
})

Changelog

2.0.2

• No longer stops when a computed property throws an error. The error will be listed instead of the result.

2.0

• Method of initializing and setting options has been changed.
• Now using Rollup to build multiple versions for better compatibility.
• Rewrote code to be more organized.
• Shows component's root element
• If using VueRouter, also shows info about current Route.

1.3

• Added options to require ctrl or shift to be pressed (off by default).

1.2

• With Chrome version 60+, the "class hack" that I used before to get things to display nicely is no longer necessary.
• Now uses lodash.cloneDeep to fetch all the values so that you no longer see a bunch of (...) that you have to click on. This means that NPM is now required. If you want to use vue-clicky without NPM, you can grab the previous version here
