+# Annotate Component Type in Decorator
+
+There are cases that you want to use your component type on a function in `@Component` decorator argument.
+For example, to access component methods in a watch handler:
+
+```ts
+@Component({
+  watch: {
+    postId(id: string) {
+      // To fetch post data when the id is changed.
+      this.fetchPost(id) // -> Property 'fetchPost' does not exist on type 'Vue'.
+    }
+  }
+})
+class Post extends Vue {
+  postId: string
+
+  fetchPost(postId: string): Promise<void> {
+    // ...
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The above code produces a type error that indicates `fetchPost` does not exist on `this` in the watch handler. This happens because `this` type in `@Component` decorator argument is the base `Vue` type.
+
+To use your own component type (in this case `Post`), you can annotate the decorator through its type parameter.
+
+```ts
+// Annotate the decorator with the component type 'Post' so that `this` type in
+// the decorator argument becomes 'Post'.
+@Component<Post>({
+  watch: {
+    postId(id: string) {
+      this.fetchPost(id) // -> No errors
+    }
+  }
+})
+class Post extends Vue {
+  postId: string
+
+  fetchPost(postId: string): Promise<void> {
+    // ...
+  }
+}
+```
