Vue-based head manage solution inspired by react-helmet.
This package requires a Promise polyfill to be provided in environments that don't support them natively, and vue@^2.2.1
npm i -S @jnields/vue-helmet
<template>
<helmet-provider>
<div>
<helmet>
<meta charSet="utf-8" />
<title>My Title</title>
<link rel="canonical" href="http://mysite.com/example" />
</helmet>
</div>
</helmet-provider>
</template>
<script>
import { Helmet } from "@jnields/vue-helmet";
export default {
name: 'app',
components: { HelmetProvider, Helmet },
};
</script>Nested or latter components will override duplicate changes:
<template>
<Parent>
<Helmet>
<title>My Title</title>
<meta name="description" content="Helmet application" />
</Helmet>
<Child>
<Helmet>
<title>Nested Title</title>
<meta name="description" content="Nested component" />
</Helmet>
</Child>
</Parent>
</template>outputs:
<head>
<title>Nested Title</title>
<meta name="description" content="Nested component">
</head>See below for a full reference guide.
- Supports all valid head tags:
title,base,meta,link,script,noscript, andstyletags. - Supports attributes for
body,htmlandtitletags. - Supports server-side rendering.
- Nested components override duplicate head changes.
- Duplicate head changes are preserved when specified in the same component (support for tags like "apple-touch-icon").
- Callback for tracking DOM changes.
HelmetProvider takes an optional context prop, of type Object, that writes to state.
You can access rendered tags on the server via context.state.link, etc.
Assuming App passes its context prop along to HelmetProvider (as above), your server would look like this:
// server
import { createRenderer } from 'vue-server-renderer';
const renderer = createRenderer();
app.use(async (req, res, next) => {
try {
const context = {};
const markup = await renderer.renderToString(new App({
propsData: { context }
}));
const helmet = context.state;
const html = `
<!doctype html>
<html ${helmet.htmlAttributes}>
<head>
${helmet.base}
${helmet.link}
${helmet.meta}
${helmet.noscript}
${helmet.script}
${helmet.style}
${helmet.title}
</head>
<body ${helmet.bodyAttributes}>
<div id="root">
${markup}
</div>
</body>
</html>
`;
res.end(html);
} catch (e) {
next(e);
}
});<helmet
