Props with Vue Router

To pass route parameters as props, you should set the props option on your route to true. This will set route.params as the component's props.

const User = {
  props: ['id'],
  template: '<h1>Your Id is {{id}} </h1>' 
}
const router = VueRouter.createRouter({
  history: VueRouter.createWebHashHistory(),
  routes: [
    {
      path: '/home',
      component: { template: '<h1>Home</h1>' }
    },
    {
      path: '/about',
      component: { template: '<h1>About Us</h1>' }
    },
    {
      path: '/user/:id',
      name: 'user',
      component: User,
      props: true
    }
  ]
});

const app = Vue.createApp({
  methods: {
    changeRoute(route) {
      // `route` is either a string or object
      router.push(route);
    }
  },
    template: `
    <div id="rendered-content">
      <div>
        <button @click="changeRoute('home')">Home</button>
        <button @click="changeRoute('about')">About Us</button>
        <button @click="changeRoute({path: '/user/123'})">Get ID</button>
      </div>
      <div>
      <router-view></router-view>
      </div>
    </div>
  `
});
app.use(router);
app.mount('#props')

Function Mode

You can set props to a function with Vue Router. This gives you more fine grained control over what props Vue Router passes to your Vue component.

Vue Router calls your props function with the route object as the first parameter.

{
  path: '/user/:id',
  name: 'user',
  component: {
    template: `
    <div>
      <h1>id is {{id}}</h1>
      <h1>showProfilePicture is {{showProfilePicture}}</h1>
    </div>
    `
  },
  props: route => ({
    id: route.params.id, // Pull `id` from route params
    showProfilePicture: true // Hard code `showProfilePicture`
  })
}
