What you are doing will throw a warning in Vue (in the console).
[Vue warn]: Avoid mutating a prop directly since the value will be
overwritten whenever the parent component re-renders. Instead, use a
data or computed property based on the prop’s value. Prop being
mutated: “propRoomSelected”
The value will actually change inside the component, but not outside the component. The value of a parent property cannot be changed inside a component, and, in fact, the updated value will be lost if the parent re-renders for any reason.
To update the parent property, what you should do is $emit the updated value and listen for the change in the parent.
Vue.component("navigation-form",{
template: '#navigation-form',
props: ['propRoomSelected'],
data: function () {
return {
roomSelected: this.propRoomSelected,
}
},
methods:{
updateCoachStatus: function(event){
this.$emit("update-room-selected", 67) ;
}
}
})
And in your parent template listen for the event
<navigation-form :prop-room-selected='propRoomSelected'
@update-room-selected="onUpdatePropRoomSelected">
</navigation-form>
Here is an example.
This is a common pattern and Vue implemented a directive to make it slightly easier called v-model. Here is a component that supports v-model that will do the same thing.
Vue.component("navigation-form-two",{
template: '#navigation-form-two',
props: ['value'],
data: function () {
return {
roomSelected: this.value,
}
},
methods:{
updateCoachStatus: function(event){
this.$emit("input", 67) ;
}
}
})
And in the parent template
<navigation-form-two v-model="secondRoomSelected">
</navigation-form-two>
Essentially, for your component to support v-model you should accept a value property and $emit the input event. The example linked above also shows that working.
