Custom Client

Vue Query allows providing custom QueryClient for Vue context.

It might be handy when you need to create QueryClient beforehand to integrate it with other libraries that do not have access to the Vue context.

For this reason, VueQueryPlugin accepts either QueryClientConfig or QueryClient as a plugin options.

If You provide QueryClientConfig, QueryClient instance will be created internally and provided to Vue context.

tsx

const vueQueryPluginOptions: VueQueryPluginOptions = {
  queryClientConfig: {
    defaultOptions: { queries: { staleTime: 3600 } },
  },
}
app.use(VueQueryPlugin, vueQueryPluginOptions)

tsx

const myClient = new QueryClient(queryClientConfig)
const vueQueryPluginOptions: VueQueryPluginOptions = {
  queryClient: myClient,
}
app.use(VueQueryPlugin, vueQueryPluginOptions)

Custom context key

You can also customize the key under which QueryClient will be accessible in Vue context. This can be usefull is you want to avoid name clashing between multiple apps on the same page with Vue2.

It works both with default, and custom QueryClient

tsx

const vueQueryPluginOptions: VueQueryPluginOptions = {
  queryClientKey: 'Foo',
}
app.use(VueQueryPlugin, vueQueryPluginOptions)

tsx

const myClient = new QueryClient(queryClientConfig)
const vueQueryPluginOptions: VueQueryPluginOptions = {
  queryClient: myClient,
  queryClientKey: 'Foo',
}
app.use(VueQueryPlugin, vueQueryPluginOptions)

To use the custom client key, You have to provide it as a query options

useQuery({
  queryKey: ['query1'],
  queryFn: fetcher,
  queryClientKey: 'foo',
})

Internally custom key will be combined with default query key as a suffix. But user do not have to worry about it.

tsx

const vueQueryPluginOptions: VueQueryPluginOptions = {
  queryClientKey: 'Foo',
}
app.use(VueQueryPlugin, vueQueryPluginOptions) // -> VUE_QUERY_CLIENT:Foo
