Vue/Quasar Global Helper Functions - Wed, Jul 28, 2021

Make functions/methods globally available to your Quasar or Vue project.

We will be writing helpers functions on src/plugins/helper.js

Example Usage

NOTE

Remember to update you quasar.conf.js

plugins: [
  'axios',
  'helper', <---
  'vuelidate'
]

src/plugins/helper.js

import {
  Notify
} from 'quasar'

function titleCase (string) {
  if (typeof string !== 'string') {
    return new Error('Expected string as a parameter')
  }

  return string
    .split(' ')
    .map(word => word.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + word.substring(1, word.length))
    .join(' ')
}

function notifySuccess (message) {
  Notify.create({
    color: 'green',
    position: 'top',
    icon: 'done',
    message: message || 'Los datos se han cargado, estamos listos!',
  })
}

function notifyFailure (message) {
  Notify.create({
    color: 'negative',
    position: 'top',
    icon: 'report_problem',
    message: message || 'La acción ha fallado, por favor intente de nuevo'
  })
}

function checkRole (role) {
  const user = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user'))
  if (user) {
    // console.log('checkRole', role, user.roles)
    return Boolean(user.roles.indexOf(role) >= 0)
  }
  return false
}

function checkUserRole (user, role) {
  if (user) {
    // console.log('checkRole', role, user.roles)
    return Boolean(user.roles.indexOf(role) >= 0)
  }
  return false
}

function onlyAdmins () {
  return checkRole('developer') || checkRole('admin')
}

// leave the export, even if you don't use it
export default ({ app, router, Vue }) => {
  Vue.prototype.$helper = {
    titleCase,
    notifySuccess,
    notifyFailure,
    checkRole,
    checkUserRole,
    onlyAdmins
  }
}
