Vue-class-component: Extend Component options

[John0x]

Hey, I am trying to use the vue-class-component together with nuxt.js.

The problem is, that in a lot of cases I need to give the component an extra option for the layout.
For js, this is how it works:
````javascript

````

But how can I do this with the class-component?
My current approach:
````typescript

````

But I get the following error:
(12,3): error TS2345: Argument of type '{ layout: string; }' is not assignable to parameter of type 'VueClass'. Object literal may only specify known properties, and 'layout' does not exist in type 'VueClass'.

If you are using TypeScript, just augment the ComponentOptions type.

declare module 'vue/types/options' {
  interface ComponentOptions<V extends Vue> {
    layout?: string;
  }
}

See https://github.com/vuejs/vue/blob/dev/types/test/augmentation-test.ts

@ktsn this solution doesn't work on 2.6. I had to downgrade to 2.4.

It seems it doesn't work on new versions. @ktsn any ideas? I'm using the latest typescript version (2.8) and with this:

@Component({
  mixins: [validationMixin],
  components: {
    ...
  },
  validations: {
    model: {
      name: { required },
    },
  }
})

// vuelidate.d.ts
declare module 'vuelidate' {
  // we need to augment the actual Vue types
  import vue from 'vue'

  // must bolt on the validations property to the input of ComponentOptions
  // and also onto the "output" of @Component in the form of VueClass<Vue>
  module 'vue/types/options' {
    interface ComponentOptions<V extends vue> {
      validations?: { [x: string]: any }
    }
    interface VueClass<V extends vue> {
      validations?: { [x: string]: any }
    }
  }

An error will be generated, like this:

Argument of type '{ mixins: { data: () => { [x: string]: any; }; beforeCreate: () => void; beforeDestroy: () => voi...' is not assignable to parameter of type 'VueClass<Vue>'.  Object literal m
ay only specify known properties, but 'mixins' does not exist in type 'VueClass<Vue>'. Did you mean to write 'mixin'? [Error]

It always complains about the first key in the object, but validations is the one that causes the error. Removing it fixes the error

I see this error too in latest version, any ideas on how to fix it?

Try to install:

npm i @types/vuelidate --save-dev

also you could try to delete node_modules dir and .lock file and ran npm install

@archseer, What solved it for me is installing typings for vuelidate (npm install -D @types/vuelidate),
and in the Vue component adding: import { validationMixin } from 'vuelidate';

The original solution from @ktsn works well but you must import Vue first, otherwise you aren't augmenting the original ComponentOptions interface.

This is the content of my types/vue.d.ts to expand the ComponentOptions with the watchParam property:

import Vue from 'vue';

declare module '*.vue' {
  export default Vue;
}

declare module 'vue/types/options' {
  interface ComponentOptions<V extends Vue> {
    watchParam?: boolean;
  }
}

I had to use this approach because this parameter isn't included in the @nuxt/types. If it isn't your case, including the @nuxt/types in the tsconfig.json should be enough.
