How to use Vue 3 Meta with Vue.js 3?

by

It seems that Vue Meta has been upgraded to handle Vue.js 3 with a new npm package called vue-3-meta

Before Vue.js 3, it was easy to use vue-meta by adding it to the Vue instance:

import Vue from 'vue'
import VueMeta from 'vue-meta'
 
Vue.use(VueMeta, {
  // optional pluginOptions
  refreshOnceOnNavigation: true
})

However in Vue.js 3, there is no Vue instance; and instead you create the app by running createApp like such:

const app = createApp(App);
const router = createVueRouter();

app.use(router);
// need to make app use Vue-Meta here

I cannot find any documentation for vue-3-meta. import VueMeta from 'vue-meta' no longer works.

How do I import the vue-3-meta plugin properly and use it with app like in prior versions?

  1. metaManager is a MetaManager instance created from createMetaManager() of vue-meta.

    Based on the Vue 3 + Vue Router example for vue-meta, here’s an example usage:

    import { createApp } from 'vue'
import { createMetaManager, defaultConfig, resolveOption, useMeta } from 'vue-meta'

const decisionMaker5000000 = resolveOption((prevValue, context) => {
  const { uid = 0 } = context.vm || {}
  if (!prevValue || prevValue < uid) {
    return uid
  }
})

const metaManager = createMetaManager({
  ...defaultConfig,
  esi: {
    group: true,
    namespaced: true,
    attributes: ['src', 'test', 'text']
  }
}, decisionMaker5000000)

useMeta(
  {
    og: {
      something: 'test'
    }
  },
  metaManager
)

createApp(App).use(metaManager).mount('#app')
