[SOLVED] Setup method is not being called

Issue

I’ve created a starter project with vue ui (typescript, babel, linter). Everything works fine, but I can’t quite understand how to make Composition API‘s setupmethod to work. It’s simply not being called (log output is empty) Here’s where I’m stuck.

• vue: 3.0.0-rc.10

• vue-cli: 4.5.4

  <script lang="ts">
   import { Options, Vue } from 'vue-class-component'
   import HelloWorld from './components/HelloWorld.vue'
  
   @Options({
     components: {
       HelloWorld
     },
     setup () {
       console.log('SETUP HERE')
     }
   })
   export default class App extends Vue {
     setup () {
       console.log('SETUP THERE')
     }
   }
   </script>
  

Solution

You should import setup from vue-class-component then use it like :

<template>
  <div>Count: {{ counter.count }}</div>
  <button @click="counter.increment()">+</button>
</template>

<script lang="ts">
import { ref, reactive, onMounted } from 'vue'
import { Vue, setup } from 'vue-class-component'

function useCounter () {
  const count = ref(0)

  function increment () {
    count.value++
  }

  onMounted(() => {
    console.log('onMounted')
  })

  return {
    count,
    increment
  }
}

export default class Counter extends Vue {
  counter = setup(() => useCounter())
}
</script>
