Passing event and argument to v-on in Vue.js

Question

I pass a parameter in v-on:input directives. If I don\'t pass it, I can access the event in the method. Is there any way I can still access the event when passi

Answer 1

If you want to access event object as well as data passed, you have to pass event and ticket.id both as parameters, like following:

HTML

<input type="number" v-on:input="addToCart($event, ticket.id)" min="0" placeholder="0">

Javascript

methods: {
  addToCart: function (event, id) {
    // use event here as well as id
    console.log('In addToCart')
    console.log(id)
  }
}

See working fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/nee5nszL/

Edited: case with vue-router

In case you are using vue-router, you may have to use $event in your v-on:input method like following:

<input type="number" v-on:input="addToCart($event, num)" min="0" placeholder="0">

Here is working fiddle.

Answer 2

Depending on what arguments you need to pass, especially for custom event handlers, you can do something like this:

<div @customEvent='(arg1) => myCallback(arg1, arg2)'>Hello!</div>

Answer 3

You can also do something like this...

<input @input="myHandler('foo', 'bar', ...arguments)">

Evan You himself recommended this technique in one post on Vue forum. In general some events may emit more than one argument. Also as documentation states internal variable $event is meant for passing original DOM event.
