Understand .sync in Vue

Preface

The first time I met .sync modifier, I didn't know it very well. So, I seldom use that. Today, I am going to get it.

Main

In the past, I use “two-way binding” like this:

```<div class="app" id="app">
<button-counter :child-count="parCount" @add="add"></button-counter>
<p>parent component {{parCount}}</p>
</div>
```

let app = new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data: {
    parCount: 0
  },
  methods: {
    add() {
      this.parCount++
    }
  },
  components: {
    'button-counter': {
      template:
        '<button @click="add">You clicked me {{ childCount }} times.</button>',
      props: ['childCount'],
      methods: {
        add() {
          this.$emit('add')
        }
      }
    }
  }
})

It was easy to understand except a little inconvenient. I need to listen and handle event in child and parent component. Also

true two-way binding can create maintenance issues, because child components can mutate the parent without the source of that mutation being obvious in both the parent and the child.

So, Vue recommends emitting events in the pattern of update:myPropName. For example:

```<div class="app" id="app">
<button-counter :child-count="parCount" @update:child-count="parCount=$event"></button-counter>
<p>parent component {{parCount}}</p>
</div>
```

let app = new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data: {
    parCount: 0
  },
  methods: {},
  components: {
    'button-counter': {
      template:
        '<button @click="add">You clicked me {{ childCount }} times.</button>',
      props: ['childCount'],
      methods: {
        add() {
          this.$emit('update:child-count', this.childCount + 1) // child-count is right while childCount won't work
        }
      }
    }
  }
})

See? In this case, we don't have to add event callback in parent component because vue have done that. And this is the principle of .sync. For convenience, Vue offers a shorthand for this pattern with the .sync modifier which would make the code above like:

```<div class="app" id="app">
<button-counter :child-count.sync="parCount"></button-counter>
<p>parent component {{parCount}}</p>
</div>
```

let app = new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data: {
    parCount: 0
  },
  methods: {},
  components: {
    'button-counter': {
      template:
        '<button @click="add">You clicked me {{ childCount }} times.</button>',
      props: ['childCount'],
      methods: {
        add() {
          this.$emit('update:childCount', this.childCount + 1) // childCount is right while child-count won't work
        }
      }
    }
  }
})

Also,

The .sync modifier can also be used with v-bind when using an object to set multiple props at once:

```<text-document v-bind.sync="doc"></text-document>
```

This passes each property in the doc object (e.g. title) as an individual prop, then adds v-on update listeners for each one.
